.... 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 detection of her mother. The fear of being caught with a white woman overwhelmed his c .....

.... at Skaguay, they were apparently on their last legs. They could barely keep the traces taut, and on the down grades just managed to keep out of the way of the sled (London Chapter V).� Jack London used ideas of Darwinism as well as determinism when he wrote The Call of the Wild. This report will give brief meanings to the words determinism and Darwinism. Then, how Jack London uses determinism and Darwinism in the novel. Finally, a little background information on Jack London and some of the works he wrote that are similar to The Call of the Wild. Determinism, by definition, is the doctrine that the will is not free, but is inevitably and in .....

.... close friend and confidante, but the two women are nothing alike. Adele is the perfect housewife and mother; she is the epitome of what a Creole woman and mother ought to be. She lives her life for her children, always being sure that they are properly cared for, clothed, and educated. Unlike Adele whose life is fulfilled through loving and caring for her children, Edna is "fond of her children in an uneven, impulsive way" (Chopin, p. 18). They are not enough to justify her life. Adele could not understand how Edna could say that she "would never sacrifice herself for her children, or for anyone" (Chopin, p. 47). Edna's being is taking on a new i .....

.... warmed his face, and in a moment his cheek was in contact with hers. She was sleeping soundly, and upon her eyelashes there lingered tears.� 1 She then later fell in love with Angel, and married him. Angel found out about Tess' past experience with Alec, and he could not forgive her, even though it was all Alec's doing. Thus it is clear that casual wrong follows her and yet the wrong is not made by her. Tess' true strength is her determination to overcome her misfortunes. When the Durbeyfields' horse, Prince died, Tess took control of the situation of the horse's death and the beehive delivery. .....

.... probably going to react differently to Chopin’s description of the Mallards’ marriage, and that is very true of my response to the story that is compared to my father’s and grandmother’s responses. Marriage makes boundaries between people that make them unable to communicate with each other. The Mallards’ marriage was really crippled by both their inability to talk to one another and Mrs. Mallard’s determination that her marriage was made by a “powerful will bending hers in that blind persistence with which men and women believe they have a right to impose a private will upon a fellow-creature.” But .....

.... His wife Hera is furious and argues vehemently with him. Hephaestus, their son, restores harmony between them. Book II: Zeus sends a dream to Agamemnon to persuade him to lead his army into battle to make him aware of his need of Achilles and his troops. Agamemnon, while hoping to be able to take Troy without Achilles' help, is conscious of the low morale of his army resulting from the plague and from Achilles' defection. He therefore resorts to a stratagem of reverse psychology. He will propose to his soldiers that they return home. He communicates this plan to the chieftains in council, with instructions that they should prevent the men's return, .....

.... she was given to Miss Havisham at night which is when stars appear. Stella (without the first 'e') is the name of Sydney's beloved. Probably he gave his beloved this name because she was married in the real life and so, he could not reach her. Stars are far and they can not be reached by us. In GE Estella is presented as an impossible dream for Pip. In the same way Pip has expectations in a material level, Estella would be Pip's love expectation. In a Christian sense, the star is a quality applied to the Virgin Mary. Stars are used for orientation, to guide us when we are lost at night. We could say the Virgin Mary lights her sons in the night of sin. .....

.... makes two different turns in the novel. In the end, she comes out of her mystical world and back into reality. On the other hand, Tad, reacting from the external influence of his family and the Inn, changed to form the mold of the responsible son of that time period. Though taking opposite approaches, the changes of Gwyn and Tad were very significant to their growth as characters and ultimately, to their place in the world. Gwyn started out in the novel as the hard-working, responsible daughter who contributed her all to the family and their needs. Gwyn worked a full day doing chores and helping out around the Inn. She did everything that .....

.... The images of the music were encompased in the young girl Dorcss, whom Joe fell in love with despite his attachement to Violet. The story opens with Dorcas’s funeral, where Violet had tried to slash the poor dead girl’s face, now the town reffered to her as “Violent”. Joe had killed the girl because she had tried to leave him. From that point on the story became a struggle of suffering and survival after the deception of “jazz”. Jazz symbolized the music that bloomed along with the Harlem Reniassance between the years of 1920 and 1930. Like the harlem Reniassance, it claime .....

.... of vengeance and greed that forces her to continue accusing people. For one thing she lusts after John Proctor, and she thinks that if Elisabeth is dead he will love her. Also she was somewhat of a henchman to Mrs. Putnam, and Dr. Parris, for she is eliminating Parris's enemies, and she accuses Rebecca Nurse for Mrs. Putnam. Of course Parris doesn't know her murder of innocent people is for him, but she does it out of a somewhat obsessive sense of faith to him. Of course the other girls aren't totally innocent, but they don't have much of a choice. If they were to speak out like Mary Williams, the others would accuse them of witchcraft, just li .....
