... wife. Nick did not speak to Tom of his infidelity he instead remained tolerant of it. And later when Tom and Nick met her in town, he still kept his thoughts to himself, rather than becoming involved in the conflict. Also, with Daisy and Gatsby’s relationship Nick remained tolerant of the scandal. For example, when he set up the reunion of Daisy and Gatsby within his own home. He was aware of the sin, but he did not actually come forward with his opinion on the matter. Daisy would often go to Gatsby’s house in the afternoons, and still Nick would remain tolerant of the immoral acts performed by his cousin. Towards the end of the novel ...

... slighted by other men.” From Darcy’s reaction, we can only imagine what he really thinks of Elizabeth, but we are given a very good idea. This is not love at first sight, there is no attraction between the two, there is nothing at all. Elizabeth has an equal reaction to Darcy. When she overhears the comments he has made about her, she is anything but drawn to the man. “Mr. Darcy walked off; and Elizabeth remained with no very cordial feelings towards him.(pg.12)” The two seem destined to become worst enemies, in fact they seem to become anything but a couple in love, which is exactly what they end up to be. Soon after their original meeting at the ...

... begins with is only speculation, but I assume it starts at early adolescent. Collier uses Freud's explanation of the unconscious mind to explain why the teenager has learned to repress their feelings, giving teenagers a sense of confusion of what is the truth. Collier also uses Freud's theory that everything that happens has a cause, he could not believe that things "just happen." Further in the book Collier describes the pecking orde3r, which is the birth order of siblings, in which the oldest usually commands or dicates the activities of younger siblings. Once again Collier gives examples as; that white people felt they were supreme over black people. in anot ...

... the town of Princeport. Gaultry uses her Magic powers to save her beloved sister, and like any good story, everyone lives happily ever after. I think if I could meet anyone of the characters in the novel, I would like to meet Gaultry. Gaultry reminds me of myself in many ways. She is smart, but she does not always think until it is too late. She always gets herself into trouble by not thinking before acting. Like in the near beginning of the novel when she was attacked by a group of men, instead of using her cunning, she ran. She was almost raped and beaten because of her quick reaction to a situation that might have been avoided. Gaultry is really an every ...

... and they mention the play Romeo and Juliet and someone walking nearby hears them, they will understand what they are talking about. This is called common knowledge. Because Shakespeare put so many ideas that are part of everyday life, even in this day in age, people can always relate to them. Love, hate, foolishness, jealousy, and anger are just some of the countless ideas that were put into his plays. Despite what the situation in Kosovo is or which team is winning in the Stanley Cup finals, there will always be these ideas in the world. Anyone can relate to the ideas in Shakespeare’s plays, that is what makes them so great. No matter how advanced the world ...

... It might escape me, but I do not recall any moment in the story where the narrator takes its upon herself to discuss the slave trade. It seems that in that way that she is disconnecting herself from any responsibility. One could immediately say that this is because of her position at the time. Behn, being a woman, faced many prejudices from male writers and critics, although she was praised by some. Yet the anthology introduction states that she openly signed her name and talked back to critics. If this is true why would she be afraid to take a more open stance towards the question of slavery. Why does the antislavery perspective have to come from a slave, som ...

... The people also give him great titles such as the “Lord of the Mighty Danes,” “guardian of the Scyldings,” and “protector of warriors.” Much of these people's respect come in response to Hrothgar's generosity to everyone. This generosity can be seen towards Beowulf, when the king gives his thanks for the heroic deeds of the warrior. Hrothgar rewards Beowulf with priceless material as he says to the warrior, “You shall lack no earthly riches I can offer you.” The people of the land also trust their king, who holds a strong belief in God. In the scene where Hrothgar celebrates Grendel's death, he holds the monsters hand as he says, “Let us give thanks at once ...

... on any lights. After the death of Santiago, his house was a complete mess. Santiago's corpse was lying in the living room in an iron cot, surrounded by fans to cool the body (act as a refrigerator), furniture was moved out to make room for everything. Clotilde Armenta's store is where a lot of the story took place. The Vicario twins were here since four o' clock in the morning waiting for Santiago Nasar. This is also where they first started telling everybody about the fact that they were going to kill Santiago nasar. The store was in direct view of Santiago Nasar's house so that the brothers Vicario could easily keep an eye on it. The store is also where ...

... outstanding skill. Gilgamesh is not only a character of a story; he is actually a portrayal of people and how they act out of human nature. He, like many of us, does not want his existence to end when he leaves this world. He is not content with what he has, good looks, money, and power, and desires more in life. The is a story that we, as people, can relate to. There are similarities between Gilgamesh’s journey and our own journey through life. Some of the texts that will be compared with The , are the Bible, and Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. The characters of these stories are all have that burning desire to be successful in life, w ...

... and Nature accept this little girl who has been thrust out of Puritan society. A way to strengthen this point is to show Nature's reaction to Hester. The strange thing is that the sunshine runs from Hester even though it was her sin against the Puritan laws that produced Pearl who is accepted by the sunshine or Nature. In fact "[the sunshine] runs away and hides itself, because it is afraid of something on [Hester's] bosom" (146), the Scarlet Letter, which represents Hester's acceptance of Puritan law and way of life. Therefore her sin doesn't invite the sympathy of Nature. This is why when she throws the letter on the ground "forth burst the sunshine, pourin ...
