Blood And Belonging
Words: 1782 / Pages: 7

.... and Serbia), Germany, Ukraine, Quebec, Kurdistan and Northern Ireland. According to Ignatieff, in Croatia and Serbia there is a desire for a separate identity between the two nations. The fear of losing one's national identity has caused ethnic hatred. A terror so strong and historically persistent, it has driven people to a desperate state to do anything. This is a large contributor to the reasons for the extreme violence present there today. The author states, "A Croat, thus, is someone who is not a Serb. A Serb is someone who is not a Croat." This quotation profoundly expresses the short-sighted mentality present in their conflict. In his trav .....


Kate Chopins The Awakening
Words: 10531 / Pages: 39

.... to play some billiards at Klein's hotel, but Robert prefers to stay and talk with Edna. Edna is handsome, engaging woman. Robert is a clean-shaven, carefree young man. He discusses his plans to go to Mexico at the end of the summer on business. She talks about her childhood in Kentucky bluegrass country and her sister's upcoming wedding. Leonce wakes Edna when he enters the bedroom that night. He relates his experiences of the evening, but she responds only with sleepy half-answers. Her lack of interest in his evening bothers him. He checks on his sons and informs Edna that Raul seems to have a fever. She replies that the child was fine earlier, and .....


Oroonoko: Heroism
Words: 374 / Pages: 2

.... intelligent Black at that time was a rarity. This rarity would also have led to speculation, and speculation often leads to embellishment. “…(T)he most illustrious of Courts could not have produced a braver Man, both for Greatness of Courage and Mind, a Judgement more solid, a Wit more quick…”(pg. 7). Again, it is seen how Mrs. Behn constructs the hero with noble qualities. The author also retells stories of Oroonoko’s heroism. She tells tales of him killing lions with bare hands, and of hunting and killing the lion which terrorized the community. She also portrays Oroonoko’s ending in the most noble of lights, in that all that he .....


The Hobbit By J.r.r. Tolken
Words: 856 / Pages: 4

.... thirteen dwarves. He does not prove very helpful at first. But then something happens that changes Bilbo's life. He finds a magic ring that makes him invisible, and has several opportunities to use it to rescue the dwarves from danger and imprisonment. They become quite impressed by him, and even rely on him, just as Gandalf foretold. Bilbo and the dwarves finally reach Lonely Mountain, the home of Smaug the dragon. The dwarves send Bilbo down a secret passage to the dragon's lair. Bilbo has more confidence in himself now and not only steals a cup, but manages to hold his own in a conversation with the wily Smaug (not an easy thing to do).Furious th .....


Redemtion And Salvation In A T
Words: 1286 / Pages: 5

.... always possible. Dickens develops the theme of redemption and salvation through Dr. Manette's painful experience in prison and his resurrection back into society. The famous quote, "Recalled to life" (Dickens page 8), is used many times in A Tale Of Two Cities to describe Dr. Manette's escape from sure death in the Bastille. Dr. Manette's story begins when he is imprisoned unjustly for eighteen years. The solitary time spent in the prison waiting for his certain death is so excruciating it makes Manette go insane. When Dr. Manette is finally released he does not even know his own name: "one hundred and five north tower" (Dickens p 37) is all he .....


Macbeth 3
Words: 566 / Pages: 3

.... to persuade Macbeth into murdering Duncan after all. Then, when Macbeth arrived, just after she finished praying for help, she acts as if she has a heart of stone and that Macbeth is not a man if he is afraid of killing Duncan. This is a prime example of her deception towards him, and how she acts differently when she is alone than when she is around him. Another example of her being two sided is the role she talks about playing in Duncan’s death, and the role that she actually does play in it. There are a few times in the play, mostly when she is attempting to persuade Macbeth into committing the murder, that she says he should .....


Mordecai Richler`s Solomon Gursky Was Here
Words: 1407 / Pages: 6

.... turned into a total disaster, Ephraim, the sole survivor. The youngest Gursky appearing in this story is Isaac, Solomon's grandson. This complex tale unravels, as Moses recalls, all of the events in his life which pertain to it. Ever present in this Canadian cultural satire is the theme of filial relationships and the exploration of Solomon and his re-incarnation as Sir Hyman Kaplansky, in conjunction with his family and their exploits. Every character in this novel is in some way corrupt or failure. Moses is an alcoholic who did not live up to his potential; Bernard is a greedy self-centered bastard; Solomon is a cheat, when it comes t .....


Stylistic Analysis Of The Opening Page Of Dracula (Children’s Version)
Words: 1589 / Pages: 6

.... This version of Dracula is primarily written so that children can have access to the classic story in an easy manner which they can understand, since the full version is quite challenging to read, even to many adults. This version of Dracula is laid out in a series of two-page spreads. This breaks the story into smaller sections which are easier to absorb than a continuous piece of writing, particularly for a child. Each spread is laid out with the text in the middle of the spread, surrounded by colourful pictures relating to the writing, small quotes and sidebars containing factual information, again relating to points in the writing. Along the to .....


The Scarlet Letter: Theocracy And Guilt And Punishment
Words: 2153 / Pages: 8

.... and light and dark words. Theocratic domination is the ambience of control of a society based on religious ideals and laws. It is a society that relies on the guilt that comes from the violation of the laws of its religion and the punishment of these transgressions. Puritan society was one such theocracy. It based its ideals on the bible and used fear of sin to dominate the minds and lives of its people. This concept of theocratic domination is presented in the novel in several different forms. It is shown in the actions of town officials, enforcing the laws of the bible and punishing those who go against biblical law. This is shown wh .....


David Copperfield: The Many Differences Between James Steerforth And Tommy Traddles
Words: 579 / Pages: 3

.... and thin character. On the other hand, Traddles was pictured as being somewhat on the heavy side. He reminds the reader of the fat clumsy kid in their own school. Dickens portrays this when he says, "Poor Traddles! In a tight sky-blue suit that made his arms and legs like German sausages, or roly-poly puddings," (143). Besides being different in appearance, Charles Dickens contrasts these two characters through their personalities. From the beginning, James Steerforth leads people to believe that he is a good person. There are many instances in which he shows off his true colors. The first sign of his deceitful manner occurs when David all .....
