A Man For All Seasons- Every M
.... Take for example when More is using the Common Man's boat and the issue of payment comes up. He asks More to 'make it worth his while". This shows us how most would act in the same situation. It shows that all people have a price even if it is on a small scale. The Boatman also goes as far to hint about his 'young wife'. By mentioning her, he hopes that he will be tipped more money. He only wants enough money to get by with. This is relevant to us as we would bend or stretch the truth and his principl .....

All The Kings Men
.... example of Jack’s new set of values. Jack will keep doing what he has done for so many years -working in politics - because his personality has not changed. Nevertheless, his new set of values will not allow him to work for someone who is amoral any longer.
Although there are such discernible differences as the one previously mentioned, one must also realize that there are prominent similarities between Jack and the anonymous patient. The leading similarity, strangely enough, is connected to the ch .....

The Raisin In The Sun
.... life of her baby and decides to keep it. One of her reasons for this change of heart is that her and Walter have been getting along much better, and their constant fighting was one of the main reasons she did not want to have the baby in the first place. Also, now that they are all moving into a new house, there will be enough room for the baby. In the end, although having an abortion seems like an easy way out, Ruth instead thinks about the baby’s life rather than her own, and chooses not to terminate h .....

Analysis Of Mark Strands Keepi
.... wait for the narrator to leave so that they don’t have to put up with him anymore and can therefore return to what they were doing.
The last stanza explains the narrator’s reason for “moving,” or in other words living: “I move / to keep things whole.” (ll. 16 & 17) He understands that he must keep moving and going on with his life even though he is interrupting the existence and paths of others. When I read those last two lines I felt a sense of saddened acceptanc .....

Awakening Concepts Of Morality
.... had blazed up, stubborn and resistant. She could not at that moment have done other than denied and resisted (P.31).” Her insistent attitude also made her self-righteous and neglectful of other persons.
In other ways, Mrs. Pontellier’s morality led to a dreadful deceit of her own children. Her self-righteous mindset was damaging to her children’s vitality. The ways that she treated the children were full of neglect. As in a certain night, Mr. Pontellier returned home from work to find that one of .....

A Rose For Emily
.... He dies when Emily is about 30 years old, and, while it gives her freedom, she mourns his death. The power held over her, which Emily interprets as love, is gone.
Emily never experiences a normal relationship. The townspeople do not feel affection for her in the traditional sense. Instead, they regard Emily as "a tradition, a duty, and a care; a sort of hereditary obligation upon the town." Emily is somewhat of a recluse. After her father’s death, she is not seen “for a long time.” Two years lat .....

By reinforcing the issues from quatrain one and two death is near, he is hoping that someone notices before he dies. The solution comes from the couplet. This thou perceiv’st, which makes thy love more strong, To love that well which thou must leave ere long. He is saying if you see me like this you will love me even more and then I can go o .....

A Voice From The South
.... men. She argues that men and women are equals but their responsibilities to society are distinctive.
In the second half of her book, Cooper addresses America’s race problem. She argues that, yes, there is a problem concerning race in America and the only way that it will eventually be solved is by the power and grace of God. Until He intervenes, Americans must stand ready and be prepared to go to battle with racism. She argues that racism is un-Christian in practice although it may be justified by .....

A Demon Haunted World
.... how influential science is in everyone’s lives.
I think that there could also be another theme for this book. The other theme I saw to be very present throughout the book was the mere fact that science alone can not necessarily answer questions but can give the flaws to someone’s story. I am very interested in and have been a strong believer in the idea of alien abductions. In fact, I even wrote a whole research essay last year explaining why I believed them to be true. After reading Sagan’s bo .....

Aleins Among Us
.... he was going to know which it was before he did anything. He decided it must be excitement. “And anyway, I couldn’t just leave.” He told himself. The intense light faded away, and by moonlight Jim walked around the small spaceship. The wings of the craft were torn up. Wires leaped forth from the tears and melted plastic had oozed out and hardened, creating an elliptical half baked purple pancake covering the craft’s exterior. The black tinted windows had small cracks throughout.
The only orifice was a .....

Analyzing Shakespears Sonnet 5
.... Both sonnets are Elizabethan sonnets. Their rhyme scheme is a, b, a, b, c, d, c, d, e, f, e, f, g, g. They build up the subject until the last two lines, where they reach the conclusion that love is eternal. Both are in imabic pentameter.
Shakespear uses more word play than Fletcher. In line two, Shakespear says that nothing “shall outlive this powerful rime.” Rime is the crust that builds up when something is in existence for a large amount of time. However, it can also be read as .....

Fahrenheit 451 & Brave New Wor

future world, scared that it may be rendered useless and discarded.
Unlike Bradbury, Huxley includes in his book a group of people
unaffected by the changes in society, a group that still has religious
beliefs and marriage, things no longer part of the changed society, to
compare and contrast today's culture with his proposed futuristic
culture.
But one theme that both Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451 use in
common is the theme of individual discovery by refusing to .....

Animals Are Good Metaphors In
.... the people within his country the same way Jones treated his animals, the Czar like Jones did not care for his people(in Jones' case animals) and only used them in order to improver as for himself.
Old Major is the first major character described by Orwell in Animal Farm. This "purebred" of pigs is the kind, grand fatherly philosopher of change— an obvious metaphor for Karl Marx. Old Major says "And remember comrades, your resolution must never falter. No argument must lead you astray. Never .....
