.... His characters lived interchangeable but distinct lives with different joys, loves, sins, and morals. “Be true, be true, be true!” rings out throughout the entire novel, and this justifies that perhaps the greatest theme emphasized by Nathaniel Hawthorne is that which is founded on honesty. There were several honest and dishonest people in The Scarlet Letter, and each of their lives ere changed due to their ethics. Throughout the entirety of The Scarlet Letter, Hester Prynne proved to be more honest than Roger Chillingworth in that she revealed her sin rather than concealing it, she faced her problems rather than running away from them, and Hester was an honest compa ....

.... be summarized in a few sentences. The ending is expected since the author gives hints about it. As in the introduction when he says that the hobbit would gain something, this means that he will not die. Then, the reader is not kept in suspense and does not expect to see what happens at the end. The last climax (or what is supposed to be the climax) takes a long time to occur (the last fight—good (men, elves, dwarves & eagles) vs. evil (wargs & goblins)) and this reduces its effectiveness. After the climax there is the long return home. It is quite boring since there is nothing to expect to and the reader knows that the hobbit would get home safely. In my opinion it should h ....

.... as a resort town for people of color. When things take a turn for the worse in Atlanta: her shop suffers because her former lover's wife barges in to confront Ava and informs everyone that Ava has the HIV virusS; the invitations Ava once received to speak in pulpits stopped coming; and all the loved ones she knows during her ten years in Atlanta just smile at her and walk in the opposite direction, Ava Johnson decides to sell her hair salon and moves to San Francisco but wants to summer in Idlewild, the small town in northern Michigan where she grew up. Now just a half-abandoned dot on the map, Idlewild offers the only safe haven for Ava, now nearly 30. Telling hersel ....

.... also the one who must tell Fabien's wife that her husband is lost. At a different level, the book is an attempt to analyze and explain duty and responsibility one can feel towards his work and his friends and the reasons why people like Riviere and Fabien would persist and continue in their work, despite the very real dangers. When it was first publish the book was very well received and this was the book that made Saint-Exupery famous. Years later, in late thirties, after the rise of Facism, Saint-Ex was criticized for the ideas presented in "". After all, many fascist atrocities were justified as "we were only doing our duty", "just following orders". I don't believe ....

.... his likeness to a natural, pre-civilized man. As a “ noble savage”, Billy lacks an understanding of the tricks of sophisticated life and is unable to express himself through intelligence instead he must express himself through emotions. To further our understanding of Budd’s likeness to a “ noble savage” Melville states with a allusion to the bible that because of his lack of worldly knowledge he has not yet taken a bite out of the “ questionable apple of knowledge”. Here he compares Budd to Adam and Eve before they were coaxed by the serpent to take a bite of the apple of knowledge. It is in this way that Melville gives the reader the implication that Bi ....

.... the casket was made for him, Doodle. His brother told Doodle that he will not help him down unless he touches it. Doodle then said that he was not going to touch it, and his brother told him that he will leave him by himself unless he touches it. Doodle's next remark is, "Don't leave me Brother." That shows how Doodle loved his brother, and that he did not want to be separated from him. (By the way, Doodle does touch the casket). Another example is at the end of the story when Doodle and his brother were running to the house during a thunderstorm. Doodle's brother was far ahead and just let his brother behind like he did not care about him. Doodle's brother the ....

.... of his comrades suffer and die. Franz Kemmerich died of an infection after his leg was amputated. Detering tried to run away, was caught, and was executed. A flame-thrower hit Muller. Bertinck died of a chest wound, Leer a hip wound. Behm was shot in the eye. Haie Westhus was shot in the back. Berger received a wound to the pelvis. Last of all, Katczinsky with a splinter in the head. Here is Paul’s description of one of the few horrifying sights he saw with his young eyes: “Beside me a lance-corporal has his head torn off. He runs a few steps more while the blood spouts from his neck like a fountain” (pg.115). Another incredible moment is stated on page 117, ....

.... on the inside. All Gatsby wants when he chooses to be rich is to get Daisy. Daisy, who is wealthy and beautiful, symbolizes a way of life which is remote from Gatsby's and therefore more attractive because it is out of reach so he changes himself. (Fitzgerald, -page 54) Myrtle and Gatsby both want to be part of the same elite crowd. They play a reflection of each other in the book by wanting the same thing but they have different methods of achieving it. Gatsby wants Daisy, and Myrtle just wants to be higher in society. Gatsby plays the god-like character in this book so his means are good but both him and Myrtle do bad things to get higher in a crowd that will never take the ....
