A Rose Of The South
.... that her cousins had convinced her to get married, since Miss Emily had ordered a "complete out fit of men's clothing, including a nightshirt"3. Mean while Miss Emily had gone to see the druggist for some poison. She never told the druggist what the poison was for, though he assumed that it was for rats. A few days after her cousins had left, Homer was seen coming into the Miss Emily's house. Neither one of them would be seen for quite some time afterwards. When Miss Emily was finally seen again, .....

Analysis Of Frankenstien
.... He could have stopped these evil deeds the monster was doing if he would have finished producing his mate, but Victor makes up reasons so that he does not.
The monster on the other hand is the opposite of Victor Frankenstein. The feelings that the monster has are shown when he is first created. He tries to speak to Frankenstein and he smiles and reaches out a hand, just like a child reaching for their parent.
The monster’s feelings are again displayed while he is living with the family. He repl .....

A Clockwork Orange 2
.... acts, and a lover of Beethoven. These three adjectives point out what drives Alex’s actions: emotion. He follows no moral code nor does he even have one. However, he does follow his natural desire to sin, and can thus be described as a clockwork orange in that his actions are controlled by his emotion. We can clearly see how Alex’s inclination to do things that satisfy his emotion are strikingly similar to our desires to do the things that we want to do. This is the whole message behin .....

An Attempt At A Rhetorical Ana
.... on the podium with 20,000 people, he talks to a class of 30. Throughout the talks he speaks to, as he calls them, a “blind audience.” It seems, however, his tone shifts for his final broadcast and takes a more, and dare I say, neighborly approach. Yet, he can afford to at this stage, as he is only restating ideas he has already presented. Here, all he has to do is make sure he makes his point and it is clear to the reader. His tone is significantly friendlier, which I attribute to several reasons. This is .....

Animal Farm Analysis
.... Commandment left. “‘Are the Seven Commandments the same as they used to be, Benjamin?’ There was nothing now except for a single Commandment. It ran: All animals are equal but some are more equal than others”(133). That single commandment made the pigs more powerful. Animalism no longer existed.
At the beginning of the story, there were two leaders, Snowball and Napoleon, that were sharing power. Snowball was good with words, honest, good at arguing, was inventive, and believed in technology. He staye .....

Antigone Greek Ideals
.... as opposed to the mundane road that Creon chose to follow.
Antigone feels that Creon is disregarding the laws of heaven through
his edict. After she is captured and brought to Creon, she tells him
"I do not think your edicts strong enough to overrule the unwritten
unalterable laws of God and heaven, you being only a man." Antigone's
staunch opinion is one that supports the Gods and the laws of heaven.
Her reasoning is set by her belief that if someone is not given a
proper bu .....

A Farewell To Arms 2
.... Book. It is also difficult to believe wholeheartedly in his love for her until much later in their relationship, and it leaves me wondering if he is leaving his involvement in the war because of his unfailing love for Cat or if Cat and any feelings he has for her are just excuses to escape the insanity of the war he experiences in the third Book. When he is with Catherine, they are in another place, untouched by the war, both symbolically (in the tent of her hair) and literally (in Switzerland). [It seem .....

Antigone
.... if the results are death. She even knew the consequences of her actions and yet ignored them. Antigone even accepted her death when Creon found her guilty.
Antigone.
I knew I must die, even without your decree;
Living, as I live, with evil all about me,
Think death less than a friend? This death of mine
Is of no importance; but if I had left my brother
Lying in death unburied, I should have suffered.
Now I do not. -pg. 502, .....

A Separate Peace
.... away with anything. I couldn’t help envying him…a little” (909). Knowles shows how much jealousy Gene had over Finny’ s ability to stay out of trouble, no matter what he did. “This time he wasn’t going to get away with it.” (909). He would rather be in accordance to the rules and be on his best behavior, than to be a rebel who goes against everything. Finny, on the other hand was more of a rebel. “I wonder what would happen if I looked like a fairy to everyone.” (909). Finny, more of a rebel, is .....

A Streetcar Named Desire 3
.... her own confidence than to insult her family. Loneliness and heartache appeared to be her reasoning for latching onto Stanley's friend Mitch, but the reality she was hiding was slowly revealed. Blanche liked boys, she liked men and she liked sex, and these infatuations caused her to fall victim to the fantasy world she had created.
The annihilation of Blanche's fallacies developed strong themes of deception and its consequences, of emotions and the outcome of suppressing them, and of illusion ver .....

Alice In Wonderland
.... The story begins with Alice getting tired, which implies that she is falling asleep and going to enter the fantastic world of dreams. Immediately, she sees a white rabbit in a waistcoat. This puts the reader directly into the world of fantasy and imagination. It is Carroll’s use of explanations that makes this unbelievable world seem real. No matter how strange something appears it has a meaning and a reason. When the Mock Turtle is telling his story of school, he says, “‘the master was an old Turtl .....

A Lesson Before Dying
.... about a lot of things. I really like how they portrayed this theme throughout the book.
In the book each character had their own characteristics and personality. There was something special about each character in the book. Each of them had their strong points and weak points for example Grant was always running away from his problems. There were a lot of things in his life that he could not handle and he just wanted to run away. He didn’t know what to do about Jefferson at first and wondered why .....

A Hard Days Night Searching Fo
.... for living a "normal life" despite his serious misfortune. His association with Brett further reinforces this image. Despite his injury, he is able maintain a relationship with a woman who, as Hemingway goes to great lengths to show, loves him. Their exchange on pages 26-27 displays quite clearly how Jake and Brett feel about each other, but given the circumstances, that love is, says Brett, "hell on earth.” Instead of abandoning his feelings, however, Jake is shown as heroic enough to live through not .....

A Class Divided
.... life. One is name calling, another is referring other people not in your "group" as "them" or "you guys." The film also shows us that people who are normally cooperative, turn nasty and discriminating, while also this creates micro Cosmo societies in which the group bonds together. The most amazing concept is the fact that when the dominant group feels support, they appear to think quicker and do better on tests. It just shows that all we need is a little ego boost and we can do almost anything that .....
