Edwin Hubble
.... the twentieth century because of devotion to research, curiosity about the universe, and expertise at mapping galaxies.
Devotion is one characteristic in Hubble that allowed him to do his work so well. Whether it was devotion to his family or to his work. It started when he was just a youth; he was in a family of seven children and was expected to earn money for the family (Whitney 222).
Hubble’s devotion was mental and also physical. Hubble worked at Mount Wilson for most of his career. Here, “he s .....

.... it would be everlasting if he did not avenge Blevins’ death. John sets out with a passion to kill the captain and regain the horses, but realizes that the captain will have a tougher time staying alive and John let’s him go. This relieves the tension that Blevins’ death caused.

Ethan Frome
.... was not always trapped. When he was younger, he actually went to college. “…he [Ethan Frome] had taken a year's course at a technological college at Worcester…” (p. 35) it says in the book. In fact, things were looking his way when his father died. He had to go home and take care of his mother. It would have been very cruel and selfish for him to neglect his sickly mother and stay in school. This was the first instance of Ethan being trapped. No good, honorable son would leave a dying mother al .....

The Analysis Of The Main Chara
.... to realize that Stella’s world does not revolve around material items. This flaw is intertwined with her vanity and her need keep up appearances. On the surface, Blanche appears to be snobbish and conceited. She came to visit Stella with a trunk full of decorative dresses and fancy jewels, and although it was obvious that these items are superfluous in Stella and Stanley’s lifestyle, she paraded them about as if to show her true importance and beauty. When more thought is dispensed on this matter, the .....

was, he was not discouraged and continued to persevere.
Ray Kinsella was called upon by forces left unknown to the viewers and
himself to go on both a physical journey as well as a journey of the heart.

New Ending Of Romeo And Juliet
.... not what I do
Inside the tomb of Capulet
Romeo
O Fair Juliet why must thou torture me so
For even in death thy beauty is paralleled only by the stars in the sky.
O Lord what great injustice hast thou done to thee
For my love is gone
And no greater crime against me can thou think of.
Tis our familes’ to blame
Not us.
For they are blinded by tradition and driven by hatred.
O but it matters not.
Soon shall I be with thee and soon shall I once again be merry,
For to live forth be not true .....

Hamlet
.... dull-witted Polonius saw through it. His public face is one of insanity but in his private moments of soliloquy, through his confidences to Horatio, and in his careful plans of action, we see that his madness is assumed. After the Ghost's first appearance to Hamlet, Hamlet decides that when he finds it suitable or advantageous to him, he will put on a mask of madness so to speak. He confides to Horatio that when he finds the occasion appropriate, he will "put an antic disposition on" (I.v.172). This .....

King Lear
.... of Cornwall.
The King decides that Gloucester’s supposed treachery
cannot be tolerated and orders that his eyes be torn out.
At this point, Edmund seems to be unequivocally evil.
This is undoubtedly false.
Two of the other characters of the play, Goneril and
Regan surely equal Edmund’s ferocity in their quest for
power. Our first glimpse at the two surely begins to prove
that fact. In this scene, the King asks that each of his
three daughters profess their undying love to hi .....

Four Weddings And A Polaroid
.... to her it was an honor, at least the first time she was chosen for the position.
“Where to?” beckoned the cabby from the front seat.
“Church of the Redeemer on 38th Street,” Ruby told the cabby as she searched through her purse for the lipstick she had bought strictly for the occasion. She recalled standing, starring at the cosmetics shelf of the drug store for close to twenty minutes trying desperately to locate a shade that would match her dress. She felt foolish for wasting so much time on such an .....

Does The Pattern Fit?
.... you on’t?” “Before my God, I might not this believe without the sensible and true avouch of mine own eyes.” (AI, Si, L64-69) This is where the supernatural occurrence is presented. It is thought by the guards to be the ghost of the newly dead king, Hamlet’s father.
The next step, which is the establishment of the political realm, comes directly after. Focusing on the main characters that will have an important part in the plot does this. Shakespeare puts emphasis on these characters by giving them an .....

Henrik Ibsen
.... tries to make Hialmar see that his marriage is based on a lie. But rather than making Hialmar happy by understanding the true nature of his marriage, Gregers only succeeds in turning Halmar against his daughter, Hedvig. The daughter, in order to prove her love for her father who is rejecting her, takes a pistol and kills herself.
The Wild Duck is a play in which reality versus idealism becomes a structural feature. Each scene illustrates this dualism. First Gregers confronts his father, a realist, and ac .....

Heart Of Darkness
.... Thames Estuary:
…Light came out of this river since- you say Knights? Yes; but it was like a running blaze on a plain, like a flash of lightning in the clouds. We live in a flicker-may it last as long as the old earth keeps rolling! But darkness was here yesterday.
(Conrad 7)
Within this narrative paragraph Marlow sets the tone for the rest of the novel. He speaks of what culture of people brought civilization or light to Europe, as he describes it, “Light came out of this river…”. Within this .....

Symbolism
.... what they think is not true. (Chris Dakins, pg. 123)
The Lord of the Flies is also a symbol of Satan or the Devil. When Simon talked to the Lord of the Flies “he learned what the real evil was, which is in people’s hearts.” (Chelsea House, pg. 22). The Lord of the Flies is a symbol of the things we make up to be the cause for evil, when those things aren’t the real reason.
The fire is a symbol of hope and rescue. When the fire was burning bright, it was because the boys were working very hard t .....

"Boy, I sat at that goddam bar till around one o'clock or so, getting drunk
as a bastard. I could hardly see straight." Holden tried all he
could to try to be cool he was faking it just to fit in. He drank, cursed and criticized life l to make it
seem he was like he knew of his habits. I myself have found me doing this
at times, also. I, at times, feel the need to fit in to a group and do
things similar to what others do in order .....
