The theme -how criminals are viewed by society- can be seen by h .....

Wolff writes in his study that Gilgamesh is the "strongest man of his time, and the greatest warrior..."(1). Furthrermore, his beauty and power were like that of no other man.

.... what help were you to these people?…Your birds- what help were they? Or the gods…” Oedipus says to Teiresias, the prophet (pg. 21). He believes that neither the prophets nor the gods could help the town with the Sphinx’s riddle, but that he was more intelligent, and was able to solve the problem on his own. This gave him more self confidence than he could handle and an overpowering ego.

Jane Austen has depicted pride in her minor (functional) characters as a means of demonstrating it's importance as a theme of this novel. Lady Catherine is one of the main offenders, her airs, arrogance and pride are fuelled by other characters like Mr Collins who is put there to satire proud people and their followers. Another important character to note is Mr Darcy. He is an extremely important character in .....
