... his theme, but he opens the first three chapters without the main character, White Fang. Two men, named Bill and Henry, are trying to transport the body of a rich man across the frozen tundra of Alaska by sled dog, while a pack of hungry wolves is pursuing them. The wolves gradually kill off the team of dogs, and eventually Bill, in an attempt to survive the long winter. It is ironic in that both the wolves and Henry are struggling against each other for their lives. The wolves need to eat Henry to fight off their maddening hunger, and Henry needs to get rid of the wolves so he can remain living. In the end, Henry proves the victor of the deadly competitio ...

... The phrase turning the grass refered to the scattering of the grass for drying. In ³The Tuft of Flowers,² the speaker has gone out to turn the grass. Whoever did the mowing is already gone, for there are no signs of his presence. The speaker is alone. Then, a butterfly catches the speaker¹s attention, and leads his gaze to a tuft of flowers, which the mower chose to leave intact. The patch of beauty left by his fellow worker causes the speaker to feel that he is no longer alone. There is a sense of understanding between the speaker and the mower, because an appreciation of beauty unites them. Frost uses peaceful images to relate the ...

... Joe that his house was haunted yet Joe didn't believe him. "Come over then!" John said "NO!" exclaimed Joe "Why?" John asked "Because you said it was haunted!" Joe replied "Wait….I thought you said you didn't believe me?!" John inquired "Well, I changed my mind, said Joe, Hey, where is my mom?" The two boys looked all over and still they couldn't find Joe's Mom. They were beginning to get worried when they discovered a hole in the wall. Joe looked inside and screamed in horror because what he saw was a ghost and it was eating his mom!

... near future. Next Joe needed to understand that he was showing signs of regression, by sitting and crying. Once he realizes that, Joe remembers being reprimanded at work, where he felt like crawling under a rock. Lastly, Joe needs to understand that just because he was with his mother in his dream doesn’t mean that he feels for her in that way. Because he was having sex with his mother most likely means that, he needed to take on some of the qualities that she possesses. Although it is a matter of interpretation, many feel they have found the ‘right way’ to understand theirs and others dreams. Dreams have been a curiosity since ancient times. Recently ...

... and life lessons. Yet it is not until Jing Mei realizes that the key to understanding who her mother was and who she is lies in understanding her mother's life. Jing Mei spends her American life trying to pull away from her Chinese heritage, and therefore also ends up pulling away from her mother. Jing Mei does not understand the culture and does not feel it is necessary to her life. When she grows up it is not "fashionable" to be called by your Chinese name (26). She doesn’t use, understand, or remember the Chinese expressions her mother did, claiming she "can never remember things [she] didn’t understand in the first place" (6). Jing Mei "begs" her mother "to buy ...

... those of the prophets and preachers, the author F. Scott Fitzgerald, also known as the poet of the Jazz Age, criticizes the American society in a different approach. By stressing and emphasizing on the society’s worst features, the faults of its members will be greatly magnified and clearly defined. This literary genre of satire is employed by Fitzgerald in his novelette, “the Diamond as Big as the Ritz” to ridicule the American society on the terms of the corruption of the American dream, the maltreatment of human life and the limits to the power of wealth. Before the dawning of the Jazz Age, the American dream stood for hard work, honesty, virtue, and morality, ...

... of these families are all slaughtered within the play. Fortinbras, King of Norway, was killed by King Hamlet; slain by sword during a man to man battle. "…our valiant Hamlet-for so this side of our known world esteem'd him-did slay this Fortinbras." This entitled King Hamlet to the land that was possessed by Fortinbras because it was written in a seal'd compact. Polonius was an advisor to the King, and father to Laertes and Ophelia. He was nosy and arrogant, and he did not trust his children. He was killed by Young Hamlet while he was eves dropping on a conversation between Hamlet and his mother. "How now! A rat? Dead, for a ducat, dead!" King Hamlet was the King ...

... Macbeth does not seem to care Act II Scene 2 46-47 “Go get some water and wash this filthy witness from your hands.” Lady Macbeth makes out to be very loving and charming to Macbeth but underneath she is “A Fiend Like Queen” she wants the power and money of a Queen and she will get it any way she can. I think that “ The Dead Butcher” Macbeth could describe him so well in on way, because if the saying The dead butcher and the fiend like Queen was made after the production was Witch it must have been because you would have had to see the play or read it before you made that assumption. So that would mean Macbeth would have ...

... banished from the kingdom. Partly due to this and also due to differences in personality between the two men, the relationship between father and son was relatively hostile. The young prince had little respect for his father or his father’s wishes, illustrated by his act of immediately repealing of Gaveston’s banishment upon his father’s death, ‘My father is deceased; come, Gaveston, And share the kingdom with thy dearest friend.’ His father spent his life expanding and defending his young son’s future kingdom and in trying to educate his son in the art of war. The young prince however was totally uninterested in the art of war or in expanding or defending ...

... last chance to choose between God and King, and More does choose God above all, "To what purpose? I am a dead man. (To Cromwell.) You have your desire of me. What you have hunted me for is not my actions, but the thoughts of my heart. It is a long road you have opened. For first men will disclaim there hearts and presently they will have no hearts. God help the people whose Statesmen walk your road."(Bolt, 95). It is evident that in the play A Man For All Seasons by Robert Bolt the characters in focus, The Common Man serve's but one master himself. And Sir Thomas More who attempt to serve two masters is unable and in the end when he chooses to serve his ...
