.... evoked by her mother. The speaker, herself, was not the victim of her father’s abusive behavior nonetheless she still hated him because that’s the only way she knew how to feel. These feelings are shown through the imagistic language used to reveal the acts of revenge on the father. When the mother finally divorced the father, “her kids loved itâ€� (3-4). When the father was fired from his job, “we grinned insideâ€� (5-6). The pleasure that the entire family took watching their father’s demise was quite vivid. “We were tickled to think of your office taken away, you’re secretaries taken awayâ€� (7-9). The finality of the fatherâ .....

.... intentions in Utopia, must remain mysterious. A little more difficult to accept is the general implication of the review that the mysteriousness of the author's intent in Utopia is somehow a point in his favor, that the obscurity of his meaning enhances the merit of his work. The one point of unanimous agreement about Utopia is it is a work of social comment. Since Utopia is a work of many ideas, it is impossible of course to expand the book unless one has some notion of the hierarchy of conception in it. A caretul reading of Utopia does seem to me to reveal clearly the hierarchy of it author's ideas at the time he composed the book. Although t .....

.... of Bishop Cuthbert Tunstall, who was uneasy, like many highly placed churchmen, with the idea of the Bible in the vernacular. Tyndale, with the help of Humphrey Monmouth, a merchant of means, left England under a false name and landed at Hamburg in 1524. He had already begun work on the translation of the New Testament. He visited Luther at Wittenberg and in the following year completed his translation. The printing was begun with William Roye, another reformist Cambridge man, at Cologne. But Roye was indiscreet and the work was soon being talked about. The city magistrates, at the behest of the anti-Lutheran theologian Johannes Cochlaeus, order .....

.... world. Many of Chaim Potok’s characters want the American Jewry to remain isolated from the mainstream American culture: The world kills us! The world flays our skin from our bodies and throws us into the flames! The world laughs at Torah! And if it does not kill us, it tempts us! It misleads us! It contaminates us! It asks us to join in its ugliness, its abominations! (The Chosen 127) The Chosen "deals with the problems Jews have faced in trying to preserve their heritage – in particular, the problem of how to deal with the danger of assimilation" (Young)). The Jews have always been professionals occupying jobs in medicine, law, .....

.... as the escaped prisoner ascends into the light of the sun, we amass knowledge and ascend into the light of true reality: ideas in the mind. Yet, if someone goes into the light of the sun and beholds true reality and then proceeds to tell the other captives of the truth, they laugh at and ridicule the enlightened one, for the only reality they have ever known is a fuzzy shadow on a wall. They could not possibly comprehend another dimension without beholdin! g it themselves, therefore, they label the enlightened man mad. For instance, the exact thing happened to Charles Darwin. In 1837, Darwin was traveling aboard the H.M.S. Beagle in the Eastern Pac .....

.... helps Oliver at the cost of her own life. Oliver is very badly treated during his childhood years. He has to work hard and gets almost nothing to eat.

.... People also thought that she had a strong personality because she dominated the neighbors, who want her to clean up her court. Of course, the town members, who are perhaps represented by the unnamed narrator, were ready to get rid of this burden ; but in some indescribable way they were tied by the last remnants of mystique that surrounded her. They found it impossible to directly confront her - to evict her for not paying taxes - to approach her about the awful stench coming from her house. Moreover, when she went to the drugstore and requested the best poison that exist, arsenic, the druggist asked her why she wanted this poison because " the l .....

.... they would forget about home. Not only is Odysseus strong he is also very intelligent. He knows when to do the right thing at the right moment. He carved beeswax from an enormous cube to give to his men to put in their ears so they didn't have to listen to the Siren's songs. Since Odysseus didn't have any leftover beeswax for his ears, he had to resist the temptation of hearing the songs. Secondly, he tricked the Cyclops and got away in time before he was killed. Third, Odysseus sends just two of his men, instead of the whole group, to find out about the songs. If he sent them all, they may have got killed. Even though Odysseus is strong and i .....

.... and how she will read her book near the fireplace dreaming about how she was when she was young. She is “old and grey and full of sleep.” “Grey” describes her hair color, and her eyes look “full of sleep” since she is old and has wrinkles around her eyes. She is “nodding by the fire”, taking “down this book” that she reads slowly. She is reading a book near the fireplace. She is also dreaming “of the soft look” her “eyes had once, and of their shadows deep.” Therefore, she is thinking about the times when she was young and had soft look in her eyes and her dee .....

.... an armed robber, he still had to get money, and now he had to resort to a different way of thieving. Now, he would visit a bank at about two or three o'clock in the morning, pick the lock on the door, destroy the security system and crack the vault. This method was a lot slower than armed robbery, and a lot less fun, but it brought in as much as a hold up, sometimes even more. It was September 14th, two thirty am. Jason stepped silently from the small red hatchback parked in the street outside of the Federation Bank Building. He stood for a moment, letting his eyes scan the street, and on finding no one, grabbed his bag and jogged quietly across the r .....
