Book Reports Essay Writing Help

Battle Royal
Words: 1028 / Pages: 4

.... vomit or bust wide open." In other words his grandfather was telling him to conform to the white peoples way of life in order to get ahead. I believe that the story had a deeper meaning than the aforementioned one. I believe that if the reader were to take a deeper look into all of the symbolism in the story, one would find that the summation of all the symbolism is equal to not only the struggle of this one black boy, but the struggle of all blacks at the time in which this story takes place. I think that if one were to analyze the grandfathers dieing words, one would find the view of most conformist black Americans. The only way for a black person .....


To Kill A Mocking Bird: The Ewell Residence
Words: 1062 / Pages: 4

.... design: square, with four tiny rooms opening onto a shotgun hall, the cabin rested uneasily upon four irregular lumps of limestone. Its windows were merely open spaces in the walls, which in the summer were covered with greasy strips of cheese cloth to keep out the varmints that feasted on Maycomb's refuse." This description paints a very vivid picture of the cabin and also tells a little bit about the Ewells themselves. From this we can infer that the Ewells took very little (if any at all) pride in their home and it's appearance. Later in the passage Lee adds, "What passed for a fence was bits of tree limbs, broomsticks and tool shafts, all tip .....


The Gift Of The Magi: Themes
Words: 400 / Pages: 2

.... the atmosphere. For example, when Jim walks in on Della to find that she has no hair after he has bought her combs, he is not infuriated, just astonished. There could not be a better emotion to feel in that position. The same happens when Della sees Jim no longer has the watch making her gift just as useless. If the characters had become angry, their love would not be displayed as strong. Yet, they are very much in love and play a part in expressing the theme. Again, symbolism gives this story a much deeper plot. The two most treasured possessions are Della’s hair and Jim’s pocket watch. Of course, the two could live without these possession .....


The Satire Of Jonathan Swift Revealed
Words: 800 / Pages: 3

.... in a land of miniature people where his giant size is meant as a metaphor for his superiority over the Lilliputians, thus representing English society's belief in superiority over all other cultures. Yet, despite his belief in superiority, Swift shows that Gulliver is not as great as he imagines when the forces of nature call upon him to relieve himself. Gulliver comments to the reader that before hand he, “was under great difficulties between urgency and shame”, and after the deed says that he felt, “guilty of so uncleanly an action” (Norton,2051). By revealing to the reader Gulliver's shame in carrying out a basic function of life, Swift .....


Death Of A Salesman : A Social Criticism
Words: 1784 / Pages: 7

.... would take a short tome to discuss all the classic arguments on Miller's excellent work, the focus of this theme will be on Salesman's value as a comment on society. Willy does not meet America's twentieth century economic standards of success, therefore he is seen as a failure; he absolutely will not entertain the possibility of finding a job more suitable to his talents, even though perhaps he could function as a member of society if he did; and he lives in a deluded bubble, angry, self-righteous, too proud for his own good... qualities that simply do not survive in America's production-based, time-crunch, fast-food and fast talk society. The play o .....


The Republic: Morality And Immorality
Words: 1043 / Pages: 4

.... Many have said morality is our prejudices learned as we grow older. Power often controls our morality. Yet, moral happiness should be the road all would choose, as it is the path of highest reward. Though morality is no more than a personal choice, more people could make the best choice, if it became monetarily more easy to do so. Truth may be the founding father of morality, and universally unites morality, and immorality Moral rules must be flexible, society changes and with it so does morality. Morality must be as Agreed upon by, religious and non-religious alike, because morality, as everything else is part of an evolutionary process. By manife .....


To Kill A Mockingbird: Atticus
Words: 559 / Pages: 3

.... is very much on charge of their well being and knows what is best for them no matter what others may say. Another example that shows that Atticus is a good parent is when Scout uses profanity in front of Uncle Jack. To deal with this situation, Atticus tells Uncle Jack that if they don’t pay attention to her she’ll get over this "stage". I believe it takes a lot more control to ignore the comment and continue doing what you were as opposed to punishing the child for such a minor incident. By taking this approach to the problem, it shows that Atticus took the time to assess the problem before taking any action. If she didn’t understand what i .....


Canterbury Tales (reeve Charac
Words: 706 / Pages: 3

.... a specific individual than a representative of a large class of people. After Chaucer presents the physical characteristics of the Reeve, he then describes the Reeve’s occupation. A reeve by definition is a minor official or superintendent on an estate, generally an intermediary between a lord and his serfs. His job included being responsible and accountable for all his master’s accounts and animals, as shown in this excerpt from The Canterbury Tales: “His swin, his hors, his stoor, and his pultrye was hoolly in the Reeves governinge, and by his covenant yaf the reckeninge, sin that his lord was twenty-yeer of age (600-6 .....


THE BOGART
Words: 820 / Pages: 3

.... not know was that a spirit called a Boggart lived there. The Boggart is a sprit that is neither good or bad. He mainly plays practical jokes on people. It is like a little child that can be friendly towards mortals. Boggarts cannot be seen or heard.. The Volink family sold the castle right away because it would be to expensive to keep. Emily and Jessup kept two pieces of furniture to bring home. What they didn’t realize was that a Boggart was sleeping in the desk they took home. When the Boggart got up he realized he was no longer home in Scotland in his castle. As the Boggart got comfortable he began his practical jokes in Toronto. He would take .....


The Awakening: A Woman's Fight For Independence
Words: 824 / Pages: 3

.... across is her undying love for the charming Robert Lebrun. It is the unwritten rule that a woman should marry, have children, and be happy and content with that as their life. Society portrays this to be a woman's rightful job and duty. A woman should act and look "proper" at all times. This is what Edna is fighting against in this novel. She feels that, though many women agree with this "known" rule, it isn't fair. For six years Edna conforms to these ideas by being a "proper" wife and mother, holding Tuesday socials and going to operas, following the same enduring schedule. It is only after her summer spent at Grand Isle that her "mechanic .....
