.... men and women. But any solution to the problem that merely attempts to transfer domination from men to women only fosters the warfare between them. This is the reason "we do not favor a movement for women's rights that in reality retains the principles of the patriarchal world, except that women now will have the power that was formerly the exclusive domain of men." This means that women are not "being emancipated as human beings" and the war would then continue and produce a great deal of hatred on both sides. Each group hates the other and fears the attacks of each other. "Even though men pretend otherwise, they nonetheless do fear women .....

.... the dominance of masculinity over the restrained female, Jane observes the female figure, who looks as if she is behind bars, in the pattern of the wallpaper (1156). The woman who unsuccessfully attempts to climb out of the pattern symbolizes Jane’s frivolity in trying to alter feminine societal roles (1158). Significantly, the maternal instincts of Jane remain enslaved due to her surroundings. The nursery, containing windows “barred for little children,� represents the suppression of Jane’s motherly duties (1150). Jane is unable to take care of her own baby. The garden which Jane can view through her barred windows, stands for her fert .....

.... very well educated and grew up surrounded by the church and the arts. These influences no doubt helped to shape his views on love and the passing of life. Each stanza of "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" is tied together by an " a - b - a - b" rhyme scheme. This is not surprising because of the calming effect expected of this poem. The steady back and forth motion of the rhyme calms down the reader, much as a hug that rocks you back and forth calms you. This poem's purpose is to offer peace to those who read it. The steady use of rhyme provides a rhythmic, serene environment. In addition to a well-developed rhyme scheme, Donne employs very fe .....

.... what no one has ever seen.” Parris’ meaning is very simple; he is simply commenting that the court is trying to discover the poppets that supposedly Elizabeth had hidden at her house, that no one has seen. But to read Miller, one must be more perceptive, and in examining this quote by Parris, there is another meaning behind it. As most know of the Salem witch trials, they specifically know the unjust and misled court system that was used to accuse the witches. The words uttered from Parris’ mouth at that instance are so contradictory of the court and ironic that from a reader’s standpoint, one is mixed between the emoti .....

.... people around them. Horatio is the only person in the play who is always on Hamlet's side. In the play some people believe in Hamlet while other don't, but throughout, Horatio is a loyal friend to Hamlet. With the quote, "A man that Fortune's buffets and rewards Hast ta'en with equal thanks; and blessed are those Whose blood and judgement are so well Commeddled That they are not ripe for Fortune's finger To sound what stop she please.", in Act Three, Scene Two, lines 71-76, Hamlet is describing all of Horatio's qualities which he admires. Hamlet is saying how noble, well to do and down to earth Horatio is. Hamlet admires Horatio's charactor s .....

.... holds his position as the public condemns his righteous ideas of change, and people begin to admire his will power. They finally begin to admit to themselves that their consciences agree with him. The populace shows its unrest as they see he will take up the case in the quote, "Yea but Atticus aims to defend him that's what I don't like about it" (163). His town is used to the common defense lawyers taking the cases of defending Negroes, and putting on a sham trial. Therefore, when a champion of human rights like Atticus actually does his job, he is looked upon with scorn. They are so used to the accepted ways of everyday life, that no lawyer .....

.... bad temper and label this as the flaw that leads to his downfall. Oedipus becomes enraged at Teiresias’ claim that he is the one who murdered Laius and he begins to believe that this is an attempt by Creon to overthrow him. Despite Oedipus’ anger in this situation, his reaction can be justified. First of all, Teiresias’ allegation that Oedipus is the killer is absurd to him since he would never murder a king. Also, it seems logical that Creon would be behind such a scheme since he would be next in line to the throne. Therefore, Oedipus’ bad temper cannot be considered his hamartia. Another characteristic of Oedipus .....

.... rhythmic approach. These will be referred to as "metric" and "free" respectively. The metric version has a Western feel that would seem more "correct" to ears of European leaning (or learning). Much as we tend to view the past through the prism of today, those who eventually set these ancient chants in standardized notation saw them through an equally tainted gaze. The Benedictine monks left most ornamentation out of their chant settings (C. 1900) because they viewed it as an 18th Century tradition.1 This bias, along with a need to have an easily learnable piece of music, tended to simplify, rather than embellish, the standardized arrangement .....

.... her to the wealth of Tom Buchanan in order for her to achieve her economic standards.

He, himself, does not attend his parties but watches them from a distance. When this dream doesn't happen, he asks around casually if anyone knows her. Soon he meets Nick Carraway, a cousin of Daisy, who agrees to set up a meeting. Gatsby's personal dream symbolizes the larger American Dream where all have the opportunity to get what they want. Later, as seen in the Plaza Hotel, Jay still believes that Daisy loves him. He is c .....
