The Theme Of Nature In Tess Of The D'Urbervilles
1113 Words - 5 Pages.... show Tess's change of emotion by using it in parallel with the changes nature undergoes. In this way, the various images of nature are used to interpret Tess's divergent and varying feelings.
The first images Hardy uses with Tess are those that portray a sense of innocence and purity. By saying, "every girl carried in her left (hand) a bunch of white flowers. . . their hair reflected in the sunshine every tone of gold. . . each had a private little sun for her soul," (24) Hardy is able to immediately present Tess as a naive, and untouched girl, even though he does not specifically mention her in this quotation. The image of white flowers provides a feeling of cleanlines ....

America And I: “Light” And “Dark”
1028 Words - 4 Pages.... Yezierska uses the notion of darkness to symbolize her feelings of despair, confusion, and the hardships faced by her. On the other hand the image of light is used to symbolize hopes and dreams about her life in America, and the unraveling of her confusion. Yezierska, in using these images, is able to present a clearer picture of the emotions that should be interpreted from the story.
Even from the very beginning of the story Yezierska uses images of light and dark to describe her coming from Russia to America. She describes her hopes for America as “sunlight burning through my darkness”. In this instance she has used light and dark to emphasize her feelings. Sunligh ....

Call Of The Wild
1178 Words - 5 Pages.... There, the exchanging of money took place. Buck was loaded onto an express car to Seattle. On his way to Seattle, he found that a man in a red sweater repeatedly beat him. From then on, I knew that Buck would never forget that experience. In that part of the book, I found out that Buck was now an enraged animal and could only be tamed by repeatedly being hit with a club or a whip.
At this point of the book, I was thinking about Judge Miller. He would’ve sent out a message or an investigation in order to find Buck. Because Judge Miller had a big house to live in, the book implied that he was wealthy. The trip to Seattle must of taken days and by then, Judge Miller wou ....

Master Harold: Differing Influences On Fugard
936 Words - 4 Pages.... "somebody who benefited all mankind" (1301). He
admires Darwin "for his Theory of Evolution" (1301), which according to
Hally, proves "where we come from and what it all means" (1301). Sam
totally disagrees with Darwin's "Theory of Evolution" (1301) because
evolution is in contrast to the Bible's teaching on Creationism, and he
says that just because it is in a book it "does not mean [he's] got to
believe it" (1301). Sam believes that "Jesus Christ" (1302) was "a man of
magnitude" (1300). Hally is obviously against Sam's suggestion of Jesus
Christ, because Hally makes it clear that he is "an atheist" (1303). This
disagreement between Sam and Hally is really just an exam ....

Lord Of The Flies
1185 Words - 5 Pages.... ugly without silliness. Out of this face stared two light blue eyes, frustrated now, and turning, or ready to turn, to anger.” Jack’s eyes are always used in the novel to depict his emotions, as they are in the quote above. When the boys land on the island they are all wearing their school uniforms, but Jack and his choir are wearing cloaks and caps. Oddly enough, Jack is one of the only boys whose last name is learned. I think the author does this to make Jack stand out. He is a very important character because throughout this whole novel, Golding depicts this island and savagery to everyday life. Jack is the perfect character to play this role due to his ....

The Gift Of The Magi: A Continuation (Creative Writing)
1358 Words - 5 Pages.... thrown away. “
Omigosh, is that DDDDeeDDDe...?” Jim stuttered in astonishment. Was what he had
seen real? Or was he just jumping to conclusions? Was that really the hair
that Della had sold just 2 years ago? It was, and Jim thought that Della would
maybe like it back, so he bought it for 2 cents and he was so happy and he
thought he had the best present anyone could ever give their girlfriend. “Now,”
Jim thought, “will this be a useful gift, and I don't mean in a few years, this
time I want to get it right,” So Jim thought for two days straight. Finally he
came up with an idea, “I'll make it into a wig, a girl can never have to many
wigs.” So he w ....

Analysis Of Maltese Falcon
1130 Words - 5 Pages.... satan” (p. 3). Suggesting he is not angelic looking like lets say Humphrey Bogard (an indication that the movie isn’t true to the novel). The film ruined the ironic un-charming hero concept the novel have and so do I as one of my first example of the “things-are-not-what-they-seemed-theory-for-Hammett’s message.” Spade is callous, avaricious, and shares a similarity with Mike from ‘The House of Games.’ Why I think Mike and Spade are similar? For one thing Brigid O’Shaughnessy gave Spade a talk/speech about him using her pretty much the same thing Ford asked Mike in the airport. Brigid’s comment (p. 211-212) “You ....

How The Scarlet Letter Effects
1731 Words - 7 Pages.... "A," meaning "adulteress," on her bosom for the rest of her life. The book focuses mainly on the sin that was committed; it effected the whole community. The scarlet letter had one basic meaning, "adultery," but to the characters of Hester and Dimmesdale it was a constant reminder of the sin; and to Pearl it was a symbol of curiosity.
Obviously, the scarlet letter had the largest impact on Hester, it was a constant reminder of the sin she committed. The "A" she must wear on her bosom completely humiliates her in front of everyone she meets, she begins to even hide behind it, trying to conceal her identity. Hawthorne is referring to Hester in the quote, "The unhappy cu ....
