... of the world as beautiful. She hated dirty diapers, upset stomachs, and cleaning house; they were not fit for a lady. She taught her children to always act with decorum. She adored the singing of the birds and the smell of flowers. Her children were expected to behave properly and to please her, always. Mrs. Hemingway treated Ernest, when he was a small boy, as if he were a female baby doll and she dressed him accordingly. This arrangement was alright until Ernest got to the age when he wanted to be a "gun-toting Pawnee Bill". He began, at that time, to pull away from his mother, and never forgave her for his humiliation. The town of Oak Park, wher ...

... a person’s pride. The had four main subjects: 1) marriage, 2) money, 3) class distinctions, and 4) love. While marriage and courtship were the main focal points of this play, the other three subjects were made very obvious. Shakespeare chose these elements for his play not solely because they were basic, he chose them because they grasped people’s lives in his day.

For example, Petruchio made it plain that he did not want to wed Katherine for his love of her, but instead he wanted to wed her for h ...

... survival was left in the hands of Dana. Just as when Dana went back to the past the first time to save Rufus from drowning in the river. "I reacted to the child in trouble" (Pg. 13). Also, Rufus depended on her to be his companion. Even more, when Alice killed herself and Dana came back to the past the last time and saw what happened Rufus told her "don’t leave, Dana" (Pg. 256).

Miss Emily might have stayed out of the public eye afte ...

... with the community. Finally, to make matters worse, the ghost of her dead infant sister haunted the house, causing troubles wherever she could and constantly making mischief. Needless to say, Denver did not have the strong background often needed to make a successful go in the world. Yet she did make an attempt, until finally beaten down and forced into a self-imposed exile by an innocent question by a young boy, "Is it true your ma killed your baby sister?" that turned everything around and made even her strongest attempts seem worthless. And she was forced to stay inside and live a lonely life, brightened only when Beloved finally appeared. And when Beloved ...
