.... is not told in this manner. Faulkner starts out with Emily's death and then flashes back to many different events that happen during Emily's life. This creates gaps in the story about Emily's life that must be filled in with flashbacks. "A Rose for Emily" is in essence five different flashbacks combined together to form one story. Faulkner flashes back to the time when a deputation tried to collect on her taxes. This flashback is used to describe the lifestyle Emily has been living for the past years and also the appearance that Emily has taken on as a result of staying in the house. Emily's hereditary obligations that she had to the town are .....

.... parts, but they do not necessarily fall into the same order; examples of these are symbolic death and motifs. The Cosmogonic Cycle is an interesting way to interpret literature because it is Universal and it correlates with any time period and any situation. The Call to Adventure is the first of the Cosmogonic Cycle. It is the actual "call to adventure" that one receives to begin the cycle. In The Adventures of Huck Finn, Huck is forced with the dilemma of whether to stay with his father and continue to be abused or to leave. Huck goes because he desires to begin his journey. In The Catcher In The Rye, Holden mentally is torn between experience and .....

.... lies in the scene. As the play comes to an end, the reason for that scene becomes evident: the most trivial occurrence can be the most meaningful moment. We as humans, however, do not realize the greatness of these little points until it is too late. Near the end of the story, the deceased townspeople are stationed on chairs downstage, to imitate graves. They are still able to talk, yet only in a lackadaisical tone. They provide the audience, at the end, with a sense of guilt or loss. The fact that the people of Grover’s Corners did not realize the importance of life until it was gone, makes the audience feel as if they should be getti .....

.... love but does not ever learn how to communicate this love in a positive way with his wife. Another title that would work for this story would be “The Artificial Love.” The second theme is the importance of positive communication. Mary never communicated her seriousness about her feelings between Toby and Samantha. She shared there was a problem but chose not to deal with that problem. She left Toby without even discussing their problems with him. Toby never seemed to initiate any interest in his wife’s needs. He never asked her why she felt as she did. He just said he did not see a problem. The story begins with Mary's firs .....

.... chosen by God, to lead His people and to teach His ways. The success that swept over the Israelites was short-lived, however, and for the next two hundred years the people of Israel struggled against neighboring tribes. The new generation of Israelites “knew neither the Lord nor what he did for Israel� (Judges 2:10). They began to “do evil in the eyes of the Lord� by worshipping other gods and engaging in various sexual activities. To save His people from their enemies and from their “evil ways,� God “raised up� judges to rescue them (Judges 2:16). These so-called judges had the political authority vested in them to lea .....

.... First, the townspeople react almost violently to Cates' teaching of the evolution theory. For example, when Cates is arrested, he is called names and is threatened to be killed by the townspeople. Also, Reverend Brown's prayer meeting influences people to wish horrible things to Cates as Brown portrays him as the devil and asks that his soul "writhe in anguish and damnation" (66). While all the townspeople, including her father have negative attitudes toward Cates, Racheal is the only one who stands up for Bert. Being his girlfriend, she knows he is telling the truth. Like a message from God, Brady came to defend the town's belief of cr .....

.... respects a traditional witch, worked within Nature and as a part of it. She worked with devils and the lowest orders of spirits. Prospero, on the other hand, exercises his magic by means of strict discipline and study, rising above the natural order by means of his greater knowledge, and actually coercing spirits of a fairly high rank, such as Ariel, to do his bidding and control other spirits for him. In the Arts which both represent, Prospero certainly reflects the world of the mind. [And Sycorax does not?] However, in the use of his Art, Prospero reveals himself as not wholly disciplined. [okay] Prospero enjoys using the power of his Art, as he t .....

.... boyfriend who was picked on by Mr.Dussel. He loved his father but thought his mother was a pain. Mr.Van Daan was a loving father that always stood up for his son. He often argued with his wife and Mr.Dussel. Mrs.Van Daan loved her son, Peter, and her husband, although they argued most of the time. She clinged to one material possession, her fur coat given to her by her father. Mr.Dussel was a Jewish dentist that picked on Peter van Daan for every little thing. He wasn't a very religious Jew, but he still wore the blue star. Mr.Kraler was one of the people that helped them survive in the lonely attic. He with Koophuis was sent to the camps wi .....

.... because he is the only kid who would show Piggy any respect, along with his friends, Sam and Eric. Piggy attempts to restore confidence in Ralph to take control as a leader, showing his good judgment by supporting the peace maker. Piggy's biggest faults lie in his insecurities, which were the probable causes for his physical and emotional weaknesses. His nick name was earned because he mentioned what the kids used to call him. The name Piggy is obviously related to his obese physical condition. When Ralph asked him if he was going to swim, his reply was, "I can't swim, I wasn't allowed." The reason for this was Piggy's asthma. Not long aft .....

.... (Achebe, 253). Having gone back and rereading Heart of Darkness, but this time reading between the lines, I have discovered some racism Conrad felt toward the natives that I had not discovered the first time I read the book. Racism is portrayed in Conrad's book, but one must acknowledge that back in the eighteen hundreds society conformed to it. Conrad probably would have been criticized as being soft hearted rather than a racist back in his time. Conrad constantly referred to the natives, in his book, as black savages, niggers, brutes, and "them", displaying ignorance toward the African history and racism towards the African people. Conra .....
