.... who finds the presence of fresh food repulsing. The very means by which he sustained himself is not fit for a human, but rather for a dependent beast. Gregor's eyesight begins to fail him. As his former self, he would spend hours looking out the window, studying, and reading; however, he now finds nothing more than a skewed perception of reality when doing these things. The whole worlds now looks and tastes different for Gregor. The world's perception of him drives him away, and now his perception of the world drives him away even further. Alienation feeds upon itself. With the taste of moldy cheese in his mouth and the sight of nothing but a desolate gray expanse in ....

.... the accused witches, not many defended them. Perhaps this was because they might be accused of wizardry of being a witch themselves if they did so. I can say that there were important families such as the Carrier, Jacobs, Proctor, Good, Hobbs, Nurse, and the Cory's. Also many children were supposedly being hurt by witches and they banded together against the accused. The predicament in this story was that events such as a bad crop season of the girls being bewitched needed to be explained. To say that "witchcraft" is the answer the these questions. The unfortunate circumstance for some of the accused witches/wizards was that some of them had admitted to such crimes. Th ....

.... gods in particular. The father of Aphrodite is Uranus and the father of Athena is the omnipotent Zeus. Not only were they both brought into existence from the males but specifically and indirectly through male body parts. Cronus, son of Gaia and Uranus, despised his father to a vast degree that “with his right (hand) he swung/the fiendishly long and jagged sickle, pruning the genitals/of his own father with one swoop and tossing them” without hesitation in anger(Hesiod, 66). the genitals were throw “ into the restless, white-capped sea/ Where they floated a long time. A white foam from the god-flesh/Collected around them, and in that foam a maiden developed/And ....

.... a perfect example. He went off to fight in the first World War in an effort to find himself, but came back a shell of a man. Not only did he fail in finding himself, he lost nearly everything he had. His ideals were shattered, his genitals left on a battlefield in Europe with his ability to be subjective and involve himself emotionally with the world around him. His life (as viewed in his narrative) is simply moving from one place to the next, with no deep thought about the people he meets. Merely a simple statement of the facts. Objectivity as a whole depends upon distancing a person from the events and simply watching with a clinical disattachment as Jake did. And ....

.... appreciation in our society. Art can be valued for financial and artistic reasons, or it can be valued for personal and emotional reasons. I think that Dee just wants the quilt to hang in her house as a souvenir to show off to her friends, she really does not know the meaning behind it.  While Maggie has always known the meaning, she values them for what they mean to her as an individual. This becomes clear when she says, "I can 'member Grandma Dee without the quilts," (698). This implies that her connection with the quilts is personal and emotional rather than materialistic. Dee has always been ashamed of her family; she told her mother that she would manage to come to se ....

.... to catch rabbits. Yet he is lord of all the animals. (p.19) This speech gets all the animals riled up and sends the toughts of getting rid of man. Old Major then teaches them the song the Beasts of England which teaches them the "great" life without man and with no more bad leaders: Beasts of England, beasts of Ireland, Beasts of every land and clime, Hearken to my joyful tidings, Of the golden future time. Soon or late the day is coming, Tyrant Man shall be o'erthrown, And the fruitful fields of England, Shall be trod by beasts alone. Rings shall vanish from our noses, And the harness from our back, Bit and spur shall rust forever, Cruel whips n ....

.... because that is a group which does understand the truth as Baumer has experienced it. Remarque demonstrates Baumer’s disaffiliation from the traditional by emphasizing the language of Baumer’s pre- and post-enlistment societies. Baumer either can not, or chooses not to, communicate truthfully with those representatives of his pre-enlistment and innocent days. Further, he is repulsed by the banal and meaningless language that is used by members of that society. As he becomes alienated from his former, traditional, society, Baumer simultaneously is able to communicate effectively only with his military comrades. Since the novel is t ....

Victor believe wholeheartedly that he could bring the dead back to life. He felt that the dead were not ready to die and they were just resting.
