Evil
.... temptation. "What weakness offered, strength might have refused, Being lord of all, the greater was his shame…For he was lord and king of all the earth, Before poor Eve had either life or breath" (35-36, 39-40). This statement is ironic because Lanyer does not believe that women are weak or that men are stronger. She goes on to chide Adam for "lay(ing) the fault on Patience' back" (49) and wonders why women must put up with the stigma attached with being held responsible for the fall of humankind. I .....

Exile And Pain In Three Elegiac Poems
.... pain it must have been to deal with the trial. The author continually describes how incredibly miserable he is living his life in exile, how awful it is to have to live without the guidance from a higher rank being a lord and king in this case, how there is no one to talk to and to share ones feelings with, and how there is no money or riches of any kind‚ for a man who is living in exile. For the most part, the poem is sad and depressing and the reader easily sees what this man is going through and how .....

Exiles
.... I wish now that I'd asked that question.
And so Steedman goes on and on trying to reveal every possible negative thing she can dig up about her parents. She extends her father no more mercy either, as we see at the bottom of page 650:
I remember incidents like these, I think, because I was about seven, the age at which children start to notice social detail and social distinction, but also more particularly because the long lesson in hatred for my father had begun. . . .
And also at the to .....

Exiles
.... other. So in other words, the author remembers what her parents said to her about each other and includes their voices in the essay. She also includes what she remembers exactly from her parents. "If it wasn't for you two, my mother told us, I could be off somewhere else" (653). The quote obviously shows that this is what she remembers her mom saying. The author puts voices in the essay by using memories of her past.
Steedman uses voices in her essay so that the reader can get a background and .....

Exotica - Character Analysis
.... one principle character and create the story around him/her. However, Egoyan's Exotica differs in this respect, as he portrays five principle characters, each with separate desires, and unifies them via the complex and tangled narrative in such a manner that by the end, these people are so tightly wound up together that if you took one away, their world would collapse. After the first few scenes of the film, we are taken to club Exotica where we are introduced to Francis (Bruce Greenwood), the tax auditor .....

Ezra Pound
.... Everything is mechanical or physical, there are no connections established between the people. Just as Ezra Pound claims that "Introspection ("the obscure reveries/of the inward gaze") in this age is unthinkable," there is a loss of identity and the depletion of moral values in the city. As a result of the world’s harshness, innocent children are forced to suffer as Eliot expresses, "The notion of some infinitely gentle/Infinitely suffering thing." The monotonous tone .....

Throughout the course of their friendship, Hemmingway would become Fitzgerald’s harshest critic, and in the eyes of Fitzgerald, his, "artistic conscience"(Meyers 263). The second major American literary figure who influenced Fitzgerald’s life was Edgar Allen Poe.
