.... self-image or surrender to the dominant voice in the United States? The answer lies in whether or not the blindness and the invisibility were voluntary or compulsory. The relationship between IM's blindness and his invisibility are not due solely to the color of his skin. There is a level of invisibility that does directly result from the prejudice of the white men. The white community is unwilling to look beyond their stereotypes of the role and place of black men. The school superintendent that had requested IM's appearance at the ballroom to give his speech was also the same man that brought the black men into the ballroom with the words, "Brin .....

.... to describe and find a purpose for. He is different and does not fit in among the other boys,But if you go deeper into the book, it becomes more and more obvious that Simon's life on the island is strikingly similar to the life of another person that did not fit in. A person that lived some 2000 years ago in Israel. Just like Jesus Christ Simon cared about the small and vulnerable, he loved nature and all living. Simon is also a prophet. He knows that Ralph will come back to vivilization alive. He does not say anything about himself or piggy. Neither Simon nor Jesus are ever scared, because they are certain that what is meant to happen will .....

.... one purpose. As many symbols tend to do, the scarlet letter serves numerous functions, which enhance the story. The first and most obvious symbol would be the actual “A” that was stitched on Hester’s chest. In this example, the scarlet letter was a symbol for the entire world to see and ridicule Prynne for her “wrong-doing” This use of public humiliation for Hester was thought to be necessary to punish and teach Prynne a lesson. This puts much focus on the way people harass and torture others simply because they feel other people have done things morally wrong and deserve punishment. While the “wrong-doers&# .....

.... of their skin through the trees" (171). Just as the hills have their distinct beauty to her, she views pregnancy in the same fashion making the reference to the hills having skin—an enlarged mound forming off of what was once flat. The man views pregnancy as the opposite. When the girl is talking about the white elephants and agrees that the man has never seen one, his response is, "I might have, just because you say I haven’t doesn’t prove anything" (170). This shows the defensive nature of the man, and when the woman implies the he is unable to differentiate between what is beautiful and what is not. Another issue that is d .....

.... with care. Jem and Scout care about each other, Atticus and Calpurnia. An example of Jem caring about Scout is when Bob Ewell attacks them. Jem gets hurt but he still tries to help Scout escape from Bob Ewell. Scout cares about Jem because she worries if Jem is going to die when his arm is injured from Bob Ewell's attack. On the other hand, Atticus and Calpurnia care about Jem and Scout just as much. Atticus and Calpurnia may yell or lecture the children sometimes but they don't just yell and lecture Jem and Scout for no reason. Atticus and Calpurnia yell and lecture the children because they care and want the best for Jem and Scout. An exam .....

.... (194). The animals in Wart’s other transformations teach him only about their societies. The most important information that the badger gives to Wart is that humans are one of the only species in the world who fight among themselves. The badger supports this statement when he says, “There are more than four thousand different sorts of them, and from all those kinds I can only think of five which are belligerent. There are the five ants, one termite that I know of, and Man”(194). This insult influences Wart to create the Round Table when he becomes the King. The purpose of the Round Table is to get all the barons to stop fighti .....

.... programmers, one archeologist, fifty military officers and soldiers, two mathmaticians, and two language experts (fluent in fourteen languages or more) from each major country: the USA, Belgium, Russia, Japan, China, England, Italy, and Israel. Ample food and fuel was also on board to sustain all of them for the maximum possible length of the trip: four-hundred years. This trip length is only possible due to the reduction of aging when travelling at speeds faster than that of light. Using cold-dysprosiate-fusion (discovered: 2003), the scientists would travel at 13.7 times the speed of light and be able to explore the outer reaches of the milky-wa .....

.... 1948). Lawrence’s mother struggled to do her best for them, in saving money and encouraging them to take their education seriously. The children had a rather troubled love for their father, who was increasingly treated by his wife as a drunkard who would never do well, and as a consequence he drank more to escape the tensions he experienced at home. Lydia Lawrence consciously alienated the children from their father, and told them stories of her earlier married life the children never forgot, things their father did for which they never forgave him. Arthur Lawrence, for his part, unhappy at the lack of respect and love shown him and the way in .....

.... As the play continues and as she is influenced by Abigail, Mary begins to break this self induced mold and does what she wants. Mary Warren, along with many other girls gets caught up in the hype of getting all the attention and exercising power via initiating and adamantly continuing these "witch trials".

Mary Warren has a difficult decision to make. She has realized that her whole way of life has been based on injustice. However, how can she extri .....
