.... “invisible'' Americans, the shrinking economy has brought fear and anger, hopelessness and helplessness.

.... that clearly display Beowulf as being a hero, and they are as follows: the encounter with Grendel, the encounter with Grendel’s mother, and the encounter with the dragon in the tower. After the first “battle was over, Beowulf Had been granted new glory�(392-393). However, Grendel’s mother soon retaliated against Hrothgar, so the celebration and praise was short lived. The second encounter involved Beowulf traveling to the lake where Grendel’s mother lived and killing her also. After Beowulf killed the beast, he was praised by his “glorious band of Geats�(597) who,�Carried Beowulf’s helmet, and his mail shirt�(600-601) as they walke .....

This stanza establishes a cycle of darkness before creation and a darkness after destruction that lays a symbolic foundation for the rest of the poem. The next stanza depicts Thomas as he himself enters this cosmic cycle and reveals this tremendously cosmic cycle to be death. Thomas's word choice is crucial as he describes the deat .....

.... human can behave as a machine. This point is lost to those who are denied the final chapter of A Clockwork Orange. Chapter 20 ends with Alex saying "I was cured all right." These are the last words of the book in the American version. There is no indication that Alex will change from the evil life it appears he will soon resume.
