Conjure Woman
.... These androids are made to perform undesirable labor. Occasionally these androids escape and attempt to blend in with human societies. Hence, bounty hunters such as Rick Deckard, are employed by the San Francisco police department. Rick and his wife Iran, are not satisfied with there lives and relationship. They have not achieved what they sought for in life, and it seems they both feel, at least partially, that the other is holding them back.
In the year 2021, the simple possession o .....

Connecticut Yank
.... knowledge will have on the people of the Camelot. Instead of educating the general public and teaching them how and why something works instead he sends a select few to his "man factories". He uses his knowledge instead to produce fantastic miracles, which although they give him personal power, continue to perpetuate the superstitions of the populace that he is trying to overcome. For example, Hank is asked to fix the well at the Valley of Holiness. He installs a pump that will return the water, but in .....

Continental Drift
.... that, while steady and dependable, does not offer the chance for personal or financial growth. Because his life has become stagnant, because he has no more benchmarks to measure himself against, and his prospects only look to improve slightly, Bob believes that his life, or more accurately, what life means to him, is over. Now that Bob is settled into the life that most people in his part of the world try to obtain, he feels that there is nothing left for him to do, and so he focuses on the success he .....

Contrast In Do Not Weep, Maiden, For War Is Kind
.... The phrase "war is kind" is mentioned several times throught out the poem, which is not what most people would use to describe the war. That is probably the reason that the certain phrase was used. By saying that war is kind, it made the reader think, really think, about why would Crane use that phrase about the war. The reader then would figure out that the war wasn't kind, and think of reasons why it wasn't kind. That wouldn't have happened if Crane had stated that the war is not kind in the f .....

Count Of Monte Cristo
.... confirms the fact that the evil plan worked and Dantes was put into jail for fourteen long years. Fernand's character traits were important. They added to the story and showed why Dantes got revenge on him. He could have done many things with his life and could have been used in many ways, but he did not. Because all of his desires were self-seeking, he did not go anywhere in life. His jealous nature was part of what destroyed him. Contentedness was definitely not a strong point in Fernand's character. He .....

Crime And Punishment
.... through an image of people who go
through pain. He presents a graphical experience of ones who do not know how
to deal with humanity and its problems. Dostoevsky himself does not give a
clear solution nor does he leave one with the certainty of faith for an
example. He says himself:
Finding myself lost in the solution of these questions, I decide
to bypass them with no solution at all. (From the Author. The
Brothers Karamazov)
Through the presentation of cri .....

Crime And Punishment
.... upon the wicked, yet normal mind of Raskolnikov. Dosteovsky's powerful appeal to our intellectual interests is most directly and naturally linked to the action. (Rahv 592) In other words, Dosteovsky is showing how a relatively intelligent person is vulnerable to indulge in such pure evil. Moral evil categorizes evil as wrongful actions done knowingly to misfortune or harm in a society consisting of moral principles. Examples in past and present time include common traits such as greed, lust, and hat .....

Crime And Punishment
.... showing concern for the ill-fated animal reflects the caring side that is present in him. It shows that he is not a cold-hearted killer that is depicted by the owner of the mare. Upon waking though his thoughts turn to the possibility of killing Alyona. This is a representation of his murderous half looking to improve his standard of living by taking another's life. The two sides of his mind are fighting wanting him to make the correct decision with each side having its pros and cons. The compassionate si .....

Crime And Punishment
.... of that?" (29). In the same likeness, Peter Petrovich Luzhin, a corporate lawyer, indulges Sonia with lectures of hand kisses and the French workers' associations and proclaims that he "like[s] the girl a lot . . . [and] no one [treats] her more politely and considerably than [he does], or [has] greater respect for her dignity" (360), yet, he accuses her later at her father's funeral feast of stealing "a government-accredited band note of the value of one hundred rubles" (381). He even boldly states "that .....

Crime And Punishment
.... sees the man that had called him a murderer earlier in the book. The man beckons to him as though he knows Raskolnikov. This part of the dream is an indirect interpretation of Raskolnikov’s fear of exposure (Hapgood 4493) "Raskolnikov is way too much of a critic to be a good actor. He thinks that other can see into him as he sees into them" (Hapgood 4801). As he follows the man, he is unsure if the man is beckoning to him or not. This compares to his real-life fear of not knowing if peopl .....

Crime And Punishment - Style
.... in which he lives, which allows him to conjure up wild fantasies and delusions of grandeur. The sympathy Dostoyevsky enforces upon the reader for Raskolnikov is held by the overwhelming signs pointing towards the notion that he knows that he is wrong in his doings.
The first indication of Raskolnikov’s need for punishment for his crime appears in his preparation for the crime itself. It is by no means meticulous. To be sure no one will suspect him, he rehearses the crime, counts the steps to Alyona’s .....

Crime And Punishment - Suffering
.... the crime,
only his pride's hurt. He doesn't mention the idea of the pain that
might arise from recurrent visions of the crime. Raskolnikov never
again recalls the massive amounts of blood everywhere, the look on
Lizaveta's face when he brings down the axe on her head. These things
clearly show that the crime isn't what might cause him suffering, or
pain, it is something else.
After Raskolnikov is sent off to Siberia, he doesn't feel
remorseful. His feeling .....

Stair was away and made her come to doctor’s office. By the way he and some of his friends hid near the office and laugh at her when she realized the trick. They made fun of her till she got home. Later, when Paul learned this he told the whole story to Doc. Stair. He replied Paul that he would make Jim suffer some how : "It’s a chinch Doc went up in the air .....

Crumbling Is Not An Instants Act
.... its figurative meaning.
Imagery is Dickinson’s main figurative tool in this poem. the idea that crumbling is progressive is supported by the last two lines of the first stanza, which state,
"Dilapidation’s processes
Are organized Decays"
This means that crumbling is a result of dilapidation, which is caused by gradual decay. The deterioration that results is progressive: one stage of decay leads to the next until crumbling inevitably comes along. The second s .....
