.... to win the war. Since Achilles knows he will die, his mother told him his fate, he is creating a way he can live on through the remembrance of others and achieve immortality by the survival of the Greek culture. Also, Achilles is holding the funeral games so that when he dies a glorious death, the Achaeans will remember him better by having funeral games in honor of him. The values and themes the reader can see from Achilles are the constant battle for glory and immortality. The chariot race, one of the many events during the funeral games, forces the reader to identify and apply these themes and ideas to the rest of the text. The reader has to re .....

.... fear. Also important is the way darkness and light can be used to represent two opposite emotions or concepts. Light vs. dark can, for example, represent good vs. evil, the civilized vs. the uncivilized, illusion vs. reality or assumption vs. fact. We know from the start of the novella that the darkness that Conrad refers to is symbolic, because, while the silent narrator aboard The Nellie comments on the many lights emanating from the shore, the lighthouse, the other boats and the setting sun, Marlowe comments that they themselves are in “one of the dark places of the earth”. Therefore we know that Marlowe has his own opinion and explan .....

.... into maturity represents a part of us. His youth is characterized as that of a rapist, practitioner of extremely violent acts, and a lover of Beethoven. These three adjectives point out what drives Alex’s actions: emotion. He follows no moral code nor does he even have one. However, he does follow his natural desire to sin, and can thus be described as in that his actions are controlled by his emotion. We can clearly see how Alex’s inclination to do things that satisfy his emotion are strikingly similar to our desires to do the things that we want to do. This is the whole message behind the doctrine of original sin, where Adam’s first .....

.... “…I—I’m sorry about this new baby, Walter. I guess maybe I better go on and do what I started… I guess I just didn’t realize how bad things was with us… I guess I just didn’t realize.”(87) Ruth is going to destroy this baby because she feels that she and Walter just do not have enough money to support another family member, and feels that she and Walter will only bring the baby into a world of fighting. Beneatha also has influence on Ruth’s decision by asking, “… where is he going to live? On the roof?”(58). Beneatha feels that if Ruth has another baby it would just co .....

.... burying her brother when she knew that the law said not to. We ran and took her at once. She was not afraid, Not even when we charged her with what she had done. She denied nothing. Creon. And you, Antigone, You with your head hanging- do you confess this thing? Antigone. I do. I deny nothing. -pg. 502, lines 43-52 She didn't lie to get her out of trouble nor blame her accused actions on someone else. I think that this would show and tell people not to be afraid to say or do what you think is right. Antigone would be a good role model for many people. She wanted to do the right thing for her dead brother. Yet her idea of the right thing to .....

.... poetry and literature. Literature has been liberated considerably. The poetic form has been changed to inaugurate a new poetic form, an American form. "There was less emphasis on tradition and more emphasis on the individual talent. (www.rohan.sdsu.edu)" One of the most important contributions to contemporary verse was to take poetry out of the classrooms and into non-academic setting-coffee houses, jazz clubs, large public auditoriums and even athletic stadiums. Poetry is more popular and more read than anytime in history, not only spoken poetry but also sung poetry of a high order. "The literature, coordinated by pop music, with a way of dre .....

.... two Piggy compares the fire on the mountain to the fires of hell. It almost like he can “see� what is going to happen to the kids. Also he says “acting like a crowd of kids� as if was the adult on the island trying to help the “kids�. More proof of his clear thinking is the fact that Ralph relies on Piggy’s good advice to succeed. Without Piggy, Ralph would be lost. As the story progresses we see the boys drift apart however we see Piggy try to retain order as an adult might. When there is going to be a fight he says, “Come away. There’s going to be trouble. And we’ve had our meat.� He realizes the intensity of the .....

.... in the war he probably would have anyway. Quote "If I had forbade him to sign that muster book then and there, I would have lost a son. Is that what you want? But I saw him there so tall and strong I could have wept. You can't shelter him. There comes a time, and this is that time" (page 75.) I think that Moses had to die in order for the story to continue because if he had lived I don't think that the Battle would have been such a alarming experience for Adam, and because of the traumaticness of watching his father's death Adam was able to grow up and become more of a man. Some of the actions of Moses's death were Adam went into a state of .....

She ruled Athens. She was a virgin and got the nickname Maiden. Rouse that she had a mother named Metis. Hamilton said she had none. Hamilton said she was the inventor of the bridle. Rouse said nothing about that. Meleagros was a fighting god who killed the wild boar in Calydon with the help of Atlanta. Atlanta shot the boar with an arrow. At the time it was wounded, Meleagros went to the boar and stabbed it in the heart. He gave the boar's skin to Atlanta. Bo .....

.... or failure the narrowness that we had before is no longer there. If ever the whirlpool consumes us, we in turn consume the knowledge. So in actual fact you have beaten the 'whirlpool,' even if it has beaten us. All of us at some point in our lives must make the decision to leave home. For me personally it is going to be one of the biggest risks ever in my life. Leaving home is going to be one of the most difficult choices I am going to make. I could lose all the security that I have grown to know. Also I will be faced with making decision on my own. In the end the choices I make may not be the best, but I will have gained the knowledge th .....
