.... mutual love. At the beginning of the story Joe Mortimer is portrayed as a loving and caring husband who worries about his wife and reassures her about her infertility saying “Don’t say that. Don’t talk like that...” This response initially evokes a positive response from the reader towards the character Joe.

Don’t be afraid of that.” Hence, the relationship established between the farm couple is one of mutual friendship and love. The reader is positioned to respond .....

.... his or her own. He or she can only think what the government tells or allows him or her to think. If they are ever caught with thoughtcrime, he or she would be vapourized. Freedom of speech is limited due to the fact that thought can lead to the destruction of the government. Speech is also restricted due the Newspeak.

Without thought, there is no expressions of any kind, which makes him or her a goodthinker. A goodthinker is one that knows naturally, witho .....

.... A significant passage from the novel illustrating this point is when Marlow describes, " Black shapes crouched, lay…The work was going on…this was the place where some of the helpers had withdrawn to die…they were nothing earthly now, nothing but black shadows of disease and starvation, lying confusedly in the greenish gloom" (34-35). The natives were not "helpers", but slaves who were forced to work till physical exhaustion under the orders of the White colonist. To further support the idea of racism as seen in this novel, consider the description that Marlow gives about an incident he encounters, "And whiles I had to look af .....

.... eighteen foot catch and the largest fish ever caught in the Gulf; Los Golanos, scavenger sharks whom destroy the marlin; and the Mako, a sleek killer of the sea which is known for the eight rows of raking teeth. In this novel, Hemmingway, with his descriptive details, make the characters sound so realistic; he makes them come “alive.” For eighty-four days, Santiago had not caught a single fish. At first Manolin had shared his bad luck, but after the fortieth day the boy’s father tells his son to go on another boat. From that time on, Santiago works alone. Each morning he rows his skiff into the Gulf Stream where the big fish are. E .....

.... writings about alienated labor. He sees this as the ultimate surrendering of the human spirit (in terms of social and psychological alienation) to the material alienation of capitalism. Furthermore, he sees it as a cycle that can and must be broken in order to allow us the full expression of our species essence, which he describes as communal. Marx sees material alienation as the cause of social or psychological alienation. Material alienation he said is caused by the existence of private property. Private property came into existence through the (unequal) division of labor. Division of labor, therefore, is the central idea on which M .....

.... freedom to make decisions that benefited a large agricultural society, and when that freedom was denied, they withdrew from the Union. The Union, on the other hand, viewed the South as a group of radicals making an attempt to dissolve the unity of states their ancestors had worked so hard to create. As a result, they felt their freedom of unity and nationhood had been taken away. It is difficult to say who was right, but when all of the negotiations had been exhausted, war was the result. In this case there was no other option because both sides believed in their cause. The soldiers in the war suffered. American men spent weeks at a time in rat infes .....

.... He saw people as people, not black or white. He defended Tom Robinson without caring that everyone in Maycomb was a calling him a “nigger lover” and many other racial slurs. All Atticus did was shrug them off. When Bob Ewell spit in Atticus’s face, Atticus still did not retaliate. Instead, he wiped the spit off of his face and kept walking minding his own business. This showed Scout and Jem that there was no reason to worry themselves with other peoples opinion’s. When Mrs. Dubose called Atticus a nigger lover to Jem, Jem got angry and went home and asked Atticus if he really was a nigger lover. Atticus said straight ou .....

.... some because there was very few iron manufacturers anywhere in the South and there was just one able to supply enough. The Merrimac got a small share of iron and then went to work. It took over a year to get this ship finished. The captain was Franklin Buchnan and he had 300 men for a crew. Most of the men were soldiers recently assigned out of artillery regiments. And there were very few sailors in the South, so most were clueless on where to go or what to do. When everything was done and she began to move it looked like the Merrimac was capable of doing what she was meant to do. The Northerners were warned about this ironclad “monster� and were .....

Things like speaking of seeming unrealistic dreams, extreme sports, etc. Technically, these things are different, but in essence, they have the same meaning. , like me yearns to do miraculous things. To never grow mentally old. I feel this way, because look at people in this society, and I just see a hoard of people [t]hat hoard and sleep, and feed…” My life means a whole lot more to me than that.
