The Times They Are A Changin
.... are not literal in the sense of war, but lends emphasis to the will of the revolutionist’s idea. Change will come; the battle is seen between good and bad, yin and yang. Although blood will not be shed, politicians, judges, and other elected officials will be removed from office.
An argument that the battle is not literal is Dylan calling for writers and critics to witness the change around them. “And don’t speak too soon/For the wheels still in spin,” tells the media no .....

Brutus was one of Caesar’s best friends, but he was not the greatest friend in the world. He killed .....

The Transcendentalist
.... minimalism makes a man happy because the primitive man
is happier with less. Another positive view is the happiness
of the spiritual fulfillment; the discovery. The positive
views are good outside of the philosophy because they
cannot be mixed with the negative values.
Transcendentalism does have true points but the fact that
the negative and contradicting views do exist than it still
negates the relevance of it. Discovering one's self is an
achievement but the views .....

The Twelve Angry Men
.... verdict in regards to the facts presented in a case. In reaching a verdict, the jury must be unanimous. That is, every juror must agree with the verdict because, it is not reached through what we generally think of as the democratic process, in which the outcome is decided by the majority. Where there are differences of opinion amongst the jurors, each juror should listen carefully and with an open mind to all other points of view. When this is done, a unanimous decision is often possible; but if a .....

The Use Of Irony In The Stone
.... animals had all the power.
When Napoleon took charge, he gradually gained power and after a while the
farm was soon under the rule of a capitalist. This change in government
ultimately led to the downfall of the farm. This a good example of irony,
because capitalism was the thing the animals were trying to get away from,
and in the end it led to their downfall. At another point in the story, when
Boxer is being taken to the “hospital”, he is really being taken to a slaughter

The Western Formula
.... six-gun” (Crane 299).
Tompkins makes us aware that a stereotypical Western will hold two men as the key factors and a struggle between them. Where Crane tries describing macho cowboys in “The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky,” he directs more of the theme towards the role of a woman and how it plays against male violence. This is ambiguous towards Cawelti’s feeling for women to be insignificant to a Western life—as if they are just there for minimal diversity and show.

The Wild Duck
.... poverty,
where as the inner room, illuminated with bright candles, expresses
wealth. The darkened room, insinuating poverty, is the office in which
the poor Old Ekdal 'does some extra copying,' and in return receives a
small income. The inside room, representing wealth, is Old Werle's
dining room where he was hosting a party. The distinctions of these
two lit rooms contrast Old Ekdal and Old Werle.
"In contrast to Werle's party, the lighting is of comparative
poverty .....
