.... con la filosofia de que nada tiene importancia. El beneficio de esto es que nada le molesta. Lo detrimental de esto es que tampoco nada le da placer. Camus demuenstra en su libro que se requiere para tener una vida completa y llena de deleite. The Stranger empieza con “Mother died today. Or, maybe, yesterday; I can’t be sure.[1]” Esto resume, completamente, la filosofía del narrador, Meursault durante la primera parte del libro.

.... sat in his hut, each wife sent a dish in order of importance. Wife number one sent the first dish and so on. Not a bad set up if Okonkwo did not like what his first wife prepared, he had two more meals to fall back on. If a man's first wife did not produce the sons he longed for, he had other wives to impregnate and hope they would produce the sons he desired. In Things Fall Apart, the book seems to depict men as getting all the benefits of polygamy, or do they? What about the relationships between the wives? Do they all get along? Are they jealous of one another? Can a man really live with more than one wife in total peace? For example wife numbe .....

A once strong, handsome, and athletic man, he now weighs close to 100 pounds, his appetite having fallen victim to rigorous treatments of chemotherapy.

He composes himself and explains, “No one can ever truly know what the feeling of death is like until they actually feel it for themselves.� Generally, words such as afraid, daunting, confusion, hopelessness, and sorrow spring to mind. However, David elaborates, “the knowledge that one is in the process of dying is surreal .....

.... “Sonnet 116” is slightly different as it provides the reader with a definition of ideal and ‘true’ love which gives the effect of a conclusion to Donne’s and Marvell’s poems.

Finally all of the singular human clashes must be examined as they are also good versus evil (for example Macbeth versus Macduff). Good versus evil, commonly it is known as the good team, out smarting, out muscling or generally out-doing the evil forces and winning. In ‘Macbeth’, as with most stories, it goes further than this. A more complicated story form is developed in Macbeth, but it goes along a similar line to this description. Often good and evil will start off as close .....
