Getting Rid Of George: A Gothic Story
Words: 834 / Pages: 4 .... George returns from the dead and blackmails and once again tries to ruin Laura new found life. We found clear examples of an atmosphere of gloom and terror throughout this story proving that Getting Rid of George is a well written gothic story.
Along with a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere, Arthur uses the element of aberrant psychological states of mind to add to his gothic story. An example of irrational behavior is shown when Laura becomes outraged and spontaneously murders George. We thought, as well, that when Laura suffers a fainting spell is also an example of this psychological state of mind. Evidence of this is found when Arthur writes: .....

Native Son: Character Actions Defines Their Individual Personalities And Belief Systems
Words: 2205 / Pages: 9 .... stem from that fear and becomes apparent in the
opening scene when he fiercely attacks a huge rat. The same murderous
impulse appears when his secret dread of the delicatessen robbery impels
him to commit a vicious assault on his friend Gus. Bigger commits both of
the brutal murders not in rage or anger, but as a reaction to fear. His
typical fear stems from being caught in the act of doing something
socially unacceptable and being the subject of punishment. Although he
later admits to Max that Mary Dalton's behavior toward him made him hate
her, it is not that hate which causes him to smother her to death, but a
feeble attempt to evade the det .....

she's out now, making it a baker's dozen”
“Is she?”
“Yes Pip,” said Joe; “and what's worse, she's got a Tickler with
her.”
At this dismal intelligence, I twisted the only button on my

(Chapter II)
Pip is brought up by his sister “by hand”, and that has become a
perfect reason for his si .....

Lyrical Analysis Of The End
Words: 716 / Pages: 3 .... End" tells of the impending end of a love affair quite possibly by murder. Its an eleven minute psychosexual epic done entirely in one chord (E). The song is an incredible achievement in music, there's nothing that can even come close to what was done with "The End", in terms of the rhythmic and melodic variation backing a complex story line. It builds to an effect of mood rather than a sequence of events. Morrison's masterpiece was almost pure poetry, which probably remains the single most astounding track the doors ever recorded.
Jim Morrison uses words as much for their emotive effect as their meaning. The song suggests rather than states a m .....

Words: 743 / Pages: 3 .... and her brothers and sisters (if she even had any). Her mother was never there for her, for her mother “went back in rice and [Sethe] sucked from another woman whose job it was.” The breast milk fed to Sethe as a baby was not even from her own mother. Sethe also had to deal with the fact that she was not brought along when her mother tried to escape (unsuccessfully) from the plantation. Sethe was breaking, but not yet broken. The emptiness of Sethe’s relationship with her mother only increased Sethe’s motherly obsession for her own children. As a parent with two kids and another one on the way, Sethe needed to escape slavery. She felt sh .....

Crime And Punishment: Is There Or Is There Not Such A Thing As Crime?
Words: 1017 / Pages: 4 .... For example, purposeful and alleged
manslaughter is a crime, because it is a law to not kill others; people are not
allowed to go cavorting around killing whomever they please, if they did,
civilization would fall. Laws and rules hold us to civilization.
Another way to define crime is through ethics and morals. Each person
on this Earth possesses a conscience; when we do something wrong, our conscience
makes us feel guilty, although some people feel less or more guilt than others
about certain acts; it varies individually. Based on this, one can define a
crime as the things that make us feel guilty, although some crimes do not make
us feel guilty. .....

Words: 908 / Pages: 4 .... guilt. At this point Hester feels
that her actions were evil and were her fault, therefore she is sorry for
committing adultery.
In chapter five Hester's attitudes are the same but Hawthorne shows
that these attitudes are not stable and are susceptible to change. Hester
moves to a cottage on the outskirts of Boston, but because her sentence
does not restrict her to the limits of the Puritan settlement, Hester could
return to Europe to start over. She decides to stay because she makes
herself believe that the town "has been the scene of her guilt, and here
should be the scene of her earthly punishment" (84). This belief gives the
impression tha .....
