.... she didn’t respect. “I am a bad woman; I despise myself and don’t attempt to justify myself. It’s not my husband but my self I have deceived. And not only just now; I have been deceiving myself for a long time. My husband may good be a good, honest man, but he is a flunky!”

.... sins.
For readers who choose the negative view, Carton's death seems an
act of giving up. These readers point out that Stryver's jackal has
little to lose. Never useful or happy, Carton has already succumbed to
the depression eating away at him. In the midst of a promising
youth, Carton had "followed his father to the grave"- that is, he's
already dead in spirit. For such a man, physical death would seem no
sacrifice, but a welcome relief.
Some readers even go so far as to claim that .....

In fact, when Eddie was making fun of his brother Rodolpho, instead of replying to him in words, he chose to use his strenght to get his point across by lifting the chair. In addition, Marco doesn't talk about his family much; instead, he works as hard as he can, and that is enough to show everybody how much he cares about them. As a final insult to Eddie, Marco chooses to spit in his face in front of everybody. This is because in the Italian culture, that act is considered as an .....

by mercifully sparing her daughter from a horrific life, yet Sethe refuses to
acknowledge that her show of mercy is also murder.
Throughout Beloved, Sethe's character consistently displays the duplistic nature

reaction to School Teacher's arrival: "Oh, no. I wasn't going back there[Sweet
Home]. I went to jail instead"~(Morrison 42) Sethe's words suggest that she has
made a moral stand by her refusal to allow herse .....

overlooked in modern society. The idea to honor those close was the most Christian
element of all the Anglo-Saxon traits. It original from the Biblical ideas of honoring God,

Hemingway's utilization of the omniscient third person narrator allows the reader to visualize all of Nick's actions and surroundings, which would have been much more difficult to accomplish using first person narration. Nick is seen setting up his camp in "Big Two-He .....

The characteristics aforementioned verify Billy’s innocent nature, just as Jesus Christ held the same innocent disposition. After Billy’s capture from the Rights of Man, by impressment, he shows no remorse toward his old captain and shipmates for not protecting him. Billy, as well as Jesus, cannot hold a because their innocent nature renders them incapable of such thoughts.
