.... become a figure who was both admired and respected. He was not a strong, macho man, who thrived upon violence and bloodshed, yet he was young and ambitious. Wade saw the war as a way of gaining ‘hero’ status in order to reach his lifelong ambitions of reaching the U.S Senate. When the revelations about his acts in the war were made, John Wade lost everything that he had fought so hard to build for himself. In this superficial way, one may argue that it was the war that ultimately led to who John Wade became at the end of the novel, yet many other factors involving his life before the war must be examined. It was John Wade’s childhood and dif .....

.... the blanket of the dark, To cry, ‘Hold, Hold!’ In this passage Lady Macbeth is trying to conjure up evil spirits. The entire passage is full of morbid thoughts and intentions, to help plot against the murder of Duncan, while and the same time blocking her ability to feel remorse. She needs to arm herself against all normal, natural human emotions, because she knows that the murder of king Duncan, who is ruling by divine right, is not only morally wrong, but is also a crime against God. The speech holds many images and implications that not only apply to Lady Macbeth, but to the entire play, as the reversal of what is natural is a predominan .....

.... out rather in their similar plans of action. One of the many similarities between Casey and Christ is that Casey had also drifted out to the forests in order to "soul-search" and discover the answers to sometimes hidden questions. In this particular situation, Casey himself states the comparison of Christ’s and his actions while giving a grace at the Joad’s breakfast table, "...I been in the hills, thinkin’, almost you might say like Jesus went into the wilderness to think His way out of a mess of troubles" (Steinbeck ch.8). Casey further goes on during his rather rambling grace, "I got tired like Him...I got mixed .....

.... the past . Perhaps on childhood holidays with your parents. The could be provoking these thoughts so that you can empathise later to what he is experiencing in the poem . This setting for many , will of course bring the Channel to mind , a gigantic image , provoking again thoughts, this time of France. The title itself however does not give you any emotional insight into the poem . I feel the poet did this as to not alert the reader to what is going to transcend upon them further in the poem. The poems opening stanza is to begin with very soft and tranquil , 'The sea is calm tonight'. The words the poet uses are pleasing .....

.... 13 – 28 Amongst the most essential of characters in the play “Macbeth” by William Shakespeare is Lady Macbeth.

.... with the character's feelings, but also imagine the actual moment. Another example of a clever description usage occurs when the readers are eager to have Janet uncover what lies in the depths of her trunk. "Her old trunk that stood against the wall was open just a crack; from the crack came this tiny pinpoint of reflected light to prick the cellar's gloom…She went toward it like a woman hypnotized…her old trunk had held the curled-up body of a woman." Thus, the readers can relate to the character's feelings of fear and anticipation making them more drawn to the story and its outcome. Making the difference between whether or not a piece .....

.... through these books I noticed that they all had similar things in common like big print and colorful pictures. Looking at other books gave me good ideas on how I would design and write my story. This step really helped out when it came time to putting my book together. The next decision was what should my story be about. I knew that whatever I write about had to be something I liked or I would have no interest in writing the story. The first thing I thought about was I going to use people or animals in my story. Using people seemed easier and more realistic for me to use. Immediately I started to think freely about different types of plot .....

.... However, Poe also illustrates how a gigantic ebony clock, located in the westernmost apartment of the abbey, causes “the giddiest to grow pale� with the sound of a loud, deep, and rather peculiar note when the clock strikes each hour. The “uneasy cessation of all things� resulting from the sound of the clock creates an unpleasant and apprehensive mood, directly opposite from the joyful mood described earlier. These descriptive settings of the clock and the rest of the masque are what assists in creating a desired atmosphere throughout the story. Another key element of how the setting affects the atmosphere is how the setting evokes feeling .....

.... lives." (Pg. 357) The author bonds the nature with the woman. Her house is built to ride with the flow of the flood. The only things around her are nature. Another images that runs through the story are the trees. The planks of the trees sounds like they are crying in the dark. "Planks creaked and she could distinguish the sounds of object being knocked over." (Pg. 358) The planks sounds like they are scratching on the wall as if it's going to tear its way in. The nature acts like people around her. Another image that Dollarhide uses is the house. We quickly see how Dollarhide identifies the house as a living thing. "Now the house s .....
