.... if they don't convict Tom Robinson, and then bursts into tears refusing to answer any more questions. In the recess that follows, Mr. Underwood notices the children up in the balcony, but Jem tells Scout that the newspaper editor won't tell Atticus-- although he might include it in the social section of the newspaper. The prosecution rests, and Atticus calls only one witness--Tom Robinson. Tom testifies that he always passed the Ewell house on the way to work, and that Mayella often asked him to do chores for her. On the evening in question, she asked him to come inside the house and fix a door. When he got inside, however, there was nothing wro .....

.... Native Americans. Willa Cather was born December 7 , 1873 in a town west of Winchester, Virginia.2 In 1884, the Cather's moved their four children to a town called Red Cloud in Nebraska where they arrived to a place uninhabited, but with much fortune and hard work ahead of them. 3 In 1890, Willa attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln where she gained the knowledge and creativity to write such beautiful work. In her first works, Willa's animosity towards Nebraska was relevant in her work. 4 After she went east in 1896 and became editor of McClure's Magazine and gained success, her feeling toward Nebraska changed, which was evident in "The B .....

.... and anti- feminine features. This will lead to the discovery that our definitions of masculinity and femininity prove that those characteristics apply to the opposite sex in which the women often act like men, and the men often act like women. All of this will be discussed through looking at both male and female characters in the book as well as the boy narrator of the book. Finding examples of manliness are found with great ease considering that 12 of the 17 stories in some way deal with the theme of manliness (Thieme 24). It doesnt take long before the first example, a carpenter named Popo, is introduced. In the chapter titled .....

.... up of separate blocks of one or more tales with links introducing and joining stories within a block. The tales represent nearly every variety of medieval story at its best. The special genius of Chaucer's work, however, lies in the dramatic interaction between the tales and the framing story. After the Knight's courtly and philosophical romance about noble love, the Miller interrupts with a deliciously bawdy story of seduction aimed at the Reeve (an officer or steward of a manor); the Reeve takes revenge with a tale about the seduction of a miller's wife and daughter. Thus, the tales develop the personalities, quarrels, and diverse opinion .....

.... during this time do not like blacks. The N- word just literally show us what white people think of blacks at that time. They use this wor! d to verbally express their feelings. However, I am not trying to say that Huck calls Jim a N- because he does not like him. He probably picked it up from other people (adults). Besides this "vulgarity" as An Lew has put it, this book in my eyes is a perfectly good reading book for young people. It is exciting, adventurous, and realistic. Most of the N- words are used by Huck and as you see of their relationship together, you know that Huck does not mean it in a bad way. Since this word was used and pass .....

.... likely that that they would come to a compromise. A strong sign that Mrs. Linde brings us a better understanding of Nora is their parallel in characters. Both are willing to sacrifice themselves for values dear to their lives. This act of aiding significant loved ones gives us a better understanding of Nora.

.... accordance to the rules and be on his best behavior, than to be a rebel who goes against everything. Gene is a person who thinks before he acts. He is an individualist or a person with a distinct characteristic. He admires people who are extreme individualist. I think that is easier for Gene to go with the crowd than to go against it. Gene doesn’t like to express his emotions directly. An example of this is when Finny says that they are good friends, Gene has trouble accepting it. Gene is a person who is dissatisfied with his life and wants to set up an ideal person. Finny is that person because they are so different . Finny on the other han .....

.... after they met, he relieved her of a wretched, barbarian life and introduced her to our great Greek land, teaching her “how to live by law instead of the sweet will of force� (line 538). When he arrived in Corinth, he further extended his generosity. An opportunity arose to preserve Medea and breed a royal progeny to be brothers to his children by marrying the daughter of our great king Creon (595-7). Medea refused to accept all that Jason offered and labeled him disloyal for seeking another wife. However, our great society allows men to pursue other relationships when they grow tired of their current companion. Therefore, Jason did not act .....

.... its sharp advocates, who argue that it is a critical look at the problems facing American youth during the 1950's. When developing a comprehensive opinion of the novel, it is important to consider the praises and criticisms of The Catcher in the Rye.When studying a piece of literature, it is meaningful to note the historical background of the piece and the time at which it was written. Two J.D. Salinger short stories, "I'm Crazy" and "Slight Rebellion off Madison," were published in periodicals during the 1940's, and introduced Holden Caulfield, the main character of The Catcher in the Rye. Both short stories were revised for later inclusion in Saling .....

.... by watching the other dogs and imitating them. This lesson proves to be very helpful to Buck in the future. Because Buck’s first home was in Southern California, he was never exposed to snow. Buck’s body became accustomed to the harsh snow and he toughened and learned how to use it for his advantage. For example, Buck learned how to dig into the snow and use it to insulate him from the outside air. Buck was built for hard work; he was a huge, muscular and intimidating dog. However, Buck had to learn how to adapt to pulling a sled in every type of snow imaginable. Buck’s environment was not exclusively made up of his surroundings; those .....
