Hektor Is A Greater Hero Than
.... Andromache, shown during their conversation, has love and compassion, especially compared to Helen and Paris’ loveless relationship. Hektor shows his love for his son, Astyanax, in the scene when he plays with Astyanax after he was crying. In these scenes, Homer gives Hektor a loving, fatherly image.

For the characters of the early stories, the lack of hope motivates trepidation, while in .....

His father tells him two very important pieces of advise if Henry is to become a good and just king. He must listen to trusted advisors, and he must unite the English lords through a foreign war.

The them of “To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time” and “To His Coy Mistress” is carpe diem. The ca .....

Hiding From The Truth
.... and roominess are relaxing and fun. The reason the writer uses comfortable and roomy is to show that the wife, Louise, was happy and relaxed when she heard the news and thought about it. She was pretty much happy with the result. Another easy hidden truth was when Louise was saying, "free, free, free" and "free, body and soul free." These phrases would, in reality, show that she was happy and felt like her own self now. She wasn’t restricted by her husband, he was gone and she was her own woma .....
