.... still dominated by men"(818). The nameless narrator in the story has to deal with this cruel and harsh reality where oppression is the instrument in order to render the female as a domestic and private creature. Gilman offers concise critiques in her story by symbolizing events in the main character's life and through analysis we can conclude that it is analygous to a woman's position in America at the time. Firstly, this association can be analyzed by the narrator's gradual descent into madness by her illusions of entrapment and liberation held within the wallpaper. This imajery can be linked to the real world of oppression of a typical woman's .....

.... a marvelous job and is earning money like crazy. Now I am living and experiencing my own carpe diem philosophy. Now I am experiencing my golden chance of having a great education, and I have to make good use of the experience. The opportunity to come United States to study is very limited for Spanish students. It is limited because even when the country is not a third world country, Spain is a country not very rich, and for a person like my it would be not very intelligent to reject this great chance. Here I am trying to learn as much as possible about American life style, culture, language and people. My chance was supposed to expire in one yea .....

.... or repetition of sayings during sleep. After many repetitions of one phrase, the idea is hardened within the human mind, proving most difficult to undo. Evidence of this method to provide artificial happiness surfaces in both Lenina and Bernard’s actions. Huxley states this coldly during Lenina’s trip home with Henry Foster, “‘What a hideous color khaki is,’ remarked Lenina, voicing the hypnopædic prejudices of her caste� (62). Khaki is a color worn by lower castes in the society and the higher castes are taught not to associate with them. Bernard’s hypnopædic lessons did not work as well as most. He sees everything in this .....

.... for who they truly are. When Lear is angered by Cordelia, Kent tries to reason with Lear but he is too stubborn to listen. Lear responds to Kent's opposition by saying he never wants to see Kent. Kent was only trying to do what was best for Lear, but Lear could not see that. Later, Lear's vision is so superficial that he is easily duped by the physical garments and simple disguise that Kent wears. Lear cannot see who Kent really is. He only learns of Kent's noble and honest character just prior to his death, when his vision is cleared. By this time, however, it is too late for an honest relationship to be salvaged. Lear's vision is also marred by .....

.... life, fruit, and companionship. In The Epic of Gilgamesh, the goddess Aruru creates a wild creature named Enkidu to rival the great king Gilgamesh. In both cases, the people are created innocent, with no knowledge of complicated questions and issues, such as sexuality, that plague humanity. Their loss of innocence comes in tandem with a gain in knowledge. Although the fall of Adam and Eve is different from that of Enkidu, there are distinct similarities between the two. The problem in The Bible begins with God’s lack of explanation of his prohibitions and laws. (The Bible, Genesis 2:16-17) Adam and Eve do not obey God because they ch .....

.... prosperous era, while simultaneously examining major literary themes such as disillusionment, coming of age, and the corruption of the American Dream. The life of is marked by as much, if not more, romanticism and tragedy than his novels. Throughout Fitzgerald’s life, he unsuccessfully battled alcoholism, depression, and himself, in a quest for both personal and literary identity. At the age of twenty-three, Fitzgerald published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, to critical raves and unimaginable economic success. Shortly after the publishing of this novel, Fitzgerald was able to coerce Zelda Sayre into marriage. This marriage is manifestly .....

.... up like that to make more ugly. Be better off in the ground." (Morrison, Page 148) Since no one is willing to provide for her, she must somehow provide for herself. It is like she has been thrown into a pool of melancholic acid and every day she sinks deeper and deeper, the satirical substance eating away from the inside out, until she hits the bottom and is consumed by the phlogiston. She has so many hardships that her caustic circumstances drive her to schizophrenia: “Ever since I got my blue eyes, [Mrs. Breedlove] look away from me all of the time. Do you suppose she's jealous too? Could be. They are pretty you know. I know. [Soaphead] real .....

.... naiveté that attracts Faust most of all. "I've never seen [Gretchen's] equal anywhere! So virtuous, modest, through and through!" (2610-1) Even Mephistopheles acknowledges her virtue. He calls her an "innocent, sweet dear!" (3007). Goethe further identifies Gretchen as a saint when Gretchen's bedroom becomes a shrine to Faust. Faust uses religious language to describe the room. "Welcome, sweet light, which weaves through this sanctuary. Seize my heart, you sweet pain of love, you that live languishing on the dew of hope! How the feeling of stillness breathes out order and contentment all around. In this poverty, what fullness! In this pr .....

.... in his face, "Beg me no beggary by soul or parents, whining dog!" Achilles then takes Hector's naked body and drags it over his friends grave. Achilles's pride almost overtook his other traits and this flaw demonstrates the fact that Achilles was still human. The hero from the Bhagavad-Gita, Arjuna, did not posses such super-human strength as Achilles did but is still classified as a hero. Arjuna was stuck with the choice of fighting ones in which he respected. What he wanted was to not fight, "how can I fight against Bhishma and Drona with arrows when they deserve my worship?" Krishna, Arjuna's charioteer who is really a god tries to convince Ar .....
