.... who subconsciously is a slave to his conscience. He executes selfless acts in order to do what he knows is legal, and what he thinks is right. He is one of very few people who have died with their integrity intact. He is a special man, who is steadfast in upholding his principles, even when death breathes down his neck. Sir Thomas More truly is a paragon. One character in the play particularly concerned with his goals, regardless of the path he must take to reach them is Thomas Cromwell. Cromwell is the personification of pragmatism and is willing to do anything, providing the end sees him satisfied. "…our job as administrators is to make it as convenient as we can," Cr ....

There have not been many stories written about homosexuality in the first half of the twentieth century. That is why Fannie Flagg does not just come out and say that Idgie and Ruth are lesbians. In turn, the idea that Idgie and Ruth are lesbians is a subject that has been under heated debate. However, there a ....

.... considerate. He accepted others for who they are, not for what they look like or how much power and money they have. Pip shows us the importance of how to use your morals to become a better person. I believe that Pip's telling of the story is pvitaols because it teaches us right from wrong. The first stage Pip went through in his moral development was fear. In this stage, Pip's main excuse for his actions was his fear of punishment. Pip displayed this because Mrs. Joe was constantly beating and threatening him. This kind of behavior made Pip very sensitive and easily swayed in his thoughts. A specific example of Pip acting out of fear was when he met Magwitch, his c ....

.... realistic or fabulous, as readers, we undergo a "suspension of disbelief". The fictional world creates a new set of boundaries, making possible or credible events and reactions that might not commonly occur in the "real world", but which have a logic or a plausibility to them in that fictional world. In order for this to be convincing, we trust the narrator. We take on his perspective, if not totally, then substantially. He becomes our eyes and ears in this world and we have to see him as reliable if we are to proceed with the story's development. In The Great Gatsby, Nick goes to some length to establish his credibility, indeed his moral integrity, in telling this story ....

.... has always been treated like one. Our first impression is that Torvald is a good husband but we rapidly realize that she is his helpless thing. The author lays the emphasis upon the fact that she never had the possibility to develop a since of self, never went her own way and always accepted her fathers and husband opinions as her own. The play aims at showing the contrast between the male characters and their female counterparts. Nora is totally controlled by her husband. She has a subordinate role: she relies on him for everything, from movements to thoughts. One could argue that her most important obligation is to please her husband, making her role similar to that of a ....
