.... characters also gives way to an overwhelming tone of pity and sorrow for the world and its population. An overall theme of the novel depicts a general loss to humanity, in particular a distinct loss of individuality among the soldiers of Pianosa. The wartime atmosphere that surrounds the book and its characters helps bring about this evil.

.... in Colonel Cathcart attitudes toward enlisted men. (23)
Karl summarizes the satirazation of the military with this:

One could imagine Holden frequently ending his sentences with "and all," realizing it is a character trait since not all teenagers used that phrase. So the "and all" tag to Holden's speech served to make h .....

.... to Geoffrey Chaucer’s Summoner. The evangelist is a deceiver to many. He quotes scripture of Biblical content, to put forth an act or display that he might appear unto others as a “man of God.” The Summoner is much the same. When he is drunks, he babbles relentlessly of common Latin phrases that he had memorized from the Church services(ll. 655-659). The Summoner has been referred to be “as hot and lecherous as a sparrow(l. 640),” giving new meaning to the purpose of many great evangelists’ falling out fro .....

Civil Disobedience

I support Henry David Thoreau’s disobedient act against paying taxes. He did not want his money to be use in a way he did not desire. Standing up for what you believe in and being disobedient does not necessary mean committing an illegal act. It can change the law to better suit society. People practicing civil disobedience break a law because they consider the la .....
