Emma 2
792 Words - 3 Pages

.... character. Ms. Austen was trying to send the message that an excess of pride or vanity is indeed a failing. Those characters who can recognize their flaw emerge as the true heroes of the story. In many minor characters of the novel, pride is a common characteristic. Mrs. Bennet, for instance, is extremely proud when it comes to her daughters marriages of mercenary advantage. She is so concerned that her neighbors have a high opinion of her that her own vanity will not even allow her to think of her daughters love and happiness. This is best shown with the case of Elizabeth Bennet s proposed marriage to the esteemed Mr. Collins, a man she did not love. Mrs. Bennet was so up ....

Her days and nights are so uneventful that she finds relief in writing a journal which becomes more tiresome as her sickness progresses.

.... helping the sick, she is seen as a kind, good-hearted person who can do the work that other people can not. In people’s minds, the meaning of the “A” changes form “adultery” to “able.” She is finally forgiven of her sin by society, but never forgives herself for it. I believe that God redeems her. The Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale was Hester’s partner in sin although the public knows not of it and thinks him to be almost a saint. He has mental anguish for the rest of his life and punishes himself by not eating properly, and by beating himself with a whip. Roger Chillingworth, his physician and Hester’s husband constantly reminds him of his sin. Near th ....


A Comparison Of The Misguided Desires Of Gatsby And George
1523 Words - 6 Pages

.... a holy "vision" was to a religious mystic. For Gatsby material "success" was itself an ultimate goal, and this was the basic paradox at the heart of Gatsby's "romance” with Daisy. Jay Gatsby, who would make of materialism a spiritual ideal, was ultimately destroyed by his own dreams. Secondly, in Chapter 5, When Gatsby meets Daisy again for the first time in five years, Nick tries to comfort him in the kitchen, and finally becomes impatient. "You're acting like a little boy," he says to Jay, and this single remark defines much of Gatsby's peculiar charm. For Gatsby, despite (or because of) his wealth, and his dreams, was indeed a "little boy"-- a worshipper of toys that he ....

.... the play a sense of flavor and realism. Anne, a young German girl was particularly amusing because of the scuffles she and everyone around her seemed to have.

The Van Daa ....

.... never went for new glasses" (13). By repeatedly making excuses for Willy throughout the play, Linda keeps Willy from facing the truth about himself. She also gives Willy undeserved compliments on his ideas of ambition when he has none. This causes Willy to believe he is a great man when he is just "… a dime a dozen" (132). Willy isn’t the only one Linda affects throughout the play. Biff and Happy are also under her effects. Willy always told the boys that if you were handsome, opportunity would come to you. Even though she knows this is wrong, she never teaches the boys right. She simply agrees with everything Willy says. Another example of this is when Biff goes ....


Racism In Wright's Black Boy
800 Words - 3 Pages

.... a difference. "My grandmother who was as "white" as any "white" person, had never looked "white" to me." (Wright pg. 31). This statement shows his confusion about blacks and whites. When, as a child Wright learned of a white man beating a black boy he believed that the white man was allowed to beat the black child. Wright did not think that whites had the right to beat blacks because of their race. Instead he assumed that the white man was the black boy's father. When Wright learned that this was not true, and that the boy was beaten because of his race, he was un able to rationalize it. Even as he got older he didn't see the color of people. In one instance Richard and ....
