Lord Of The Flies
.... is shown through him organizing a way for people to voice their opinions in his meetings. It is also shown through him suggesting that they build shelter and appointing people to take on certain parts in that task.
Golding also uses the setting in order to foreshadow events that will happen or actions of characters. At the beginning of the novel, he illustrates the island in a fashion that makes it seem heavenly. This description makes the island too good to be true and the reader will re .....

Ethan Frome 8
.... it away from the cat. Their hands met on the handle of the pitcher. In the odd moment, the cat knocked over one of Zeena’s favorite pickle dishes. Immediately, they both picked up the shattered pieces. Ethan said he’d go to the store tomorrow and get some glue to fix it with and repair it before Zeena returned.
The next day, Ethan bought the glue and returned home to fix the broken wedding gift, but Zeena had already returned by the time he arrived. So he said he’d fix it late tonig .....

Eve Of St. Agnes Does Porphyro
.... this is incomprehensible for Porphyro, who believes himself to be very much in love, and therefore, could not be intentionally deceiving her.
The end of the poem ends very sadly, although on the surface this may be unclear. It is the typical fairy tale ending in which the hero sweeps his true love off her feet and rides away into the sunset, rescuing her from some horrendous existence. However, there is no sunset, but a storm for the setting, and she is not being rescued from something horribl .....

Everyday Use 2
.... to particular beloved individuals (Joy in a Common Setting 1).
Dee's confusion about the meaning of her heritage also emerges in her attitude toward the quilts and other household items. While she now rejects the names of her immediate ancestors, she eagerly values their old handmade goods, such as the hand-carved benches made for the table when the family could not afford to buy chairs. To Dee, artifacts such as the benches or the quilts are strictly aesthetic objects. It never occurs to her that they, .....

Everyday Use 3
.... She was mad at the wrong people to begin with, and ended up almost breaking her mother’s heart. The quilts themselves seemed to be the most symbolic of all. These quilts symbolized the years of oppression that blacks faced and are still facing. They also stood for the deep-rooted history of that particular family. Those quilts stood for the title “Everyday Use”. Everyday use is what they were intended for when they were made, but carried such deep underlying meaning. It would hav .....

Eves Apology In Defense Of Wom
.... Eve was merely performing her submissive duty towards Adam, by sharing all that she had. She puts forth this idea by saying: "Giving Adam what she held most dear/ was simply good" (p 1060 ln 20-1). Therefore, according to Lanyer, Eve's flaw was that she loved Adam enough to be subjective to his power over her and all things. Eve, Lanyer says, "whose fault was only too much love/ which made her give this present to her dear" (p 1060 ln 57-8) is innocent. It was within Adam's power to resist Eve's forbid .....

Examination Of Twenty Lines Of
.... characters. Volpone’s animal is the fox. This tells us a lot about his character even if we have not read the play. He is cunning and a predatory scavenger, much like a fox. This can be followed through the other characters as well (Mosca, the raven, vulture, crow and peregrine). Mosca’s presence in this scene is also significant. His standing and circling Volpone is revealing of his character. It shows to us that he himself is also a scavenger. Not only that but the lowest of scavengers as he .....

Existentialism 2
.... totally give up, but after living as a beetle his communication skills begin to stumble and later disappear. The way people communicate with one and another in each of the stories, except "The hunger Artist," leaves much to be desired. With "The Trial" Joseph K. doesn't lack any of the proper communication skills, but it is all of the other characters in the story that don't quite come through on that part. The characters are deliberately acting mysterious and keeping information out of Joseph's hands .....

Expression Through Literary De
.... For example, as the “poisonous [air]” engulfs the yacht, it gives Whitney “a mental chill; a sort of sudden dread” as Rainsford and him sail precariously towards the island (62). Whitney, frightened by the grim nature around him, feels like a wounded bird fighting for its life among the hungry predators hiding in the unknown. The shroud of darkness completely surrounds not only Whitney, but the entire yacht which leaves him in a state of anxiety because of what lies in cov .....

Factors Contributing To The Su
.... he introduces us to the idea that people in love communicate, sometimes at high decibels. He challenges us to look at the difference between reality and play-acting, specifically in the way courtly love distanced itself from the reality of real love.
Claudio and Hero demonstrate the conventional play-acting of love. They do not know one another well, and because of this fact, they misread one another to near fatal ends. Their marriage has been slightly arranged, but is more based on a sexu .....

Fahrenheit 451 2
.... Anne Bradstreet’s quote “If we had not sometimes the taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome”, meaning that unless one has bad experiences, the good ones can be taken for granted. This quote proves to be true in Fahrenheit 451 because Montag’s knowledge of the past is lacking and what he does know is inaccurate. When he encounters the truth, it is like an entirely different world being opened up to him. Obviously, this newfound knowledge would not be as awesome if h .....

Fahrenheit 451 3
.... be a king that would take your things and rule you cruelly. Without their own king Scotland would just be a meaningless province that is guarded by soldiers at all times. Why should you live in constant fear when you can have freedom and live in relative peace and you don't have to worry about what you say or do about the English because they have no rule there?
The consequences for all of Wallace's actions led to the deaths of many people, but it also led to freedom. The negatives of the war were .....
