.... and I wouldn't exactly call the Finches rich, either. I would like to try life in his shoes, because he was such an outstanding member of the community. Also, I would like to see what life was like back then in the South. There are many things I would enjoy seeing, such as the average citizen's political views, or if the average citizen even had one. It would also be fun to see what "technology" there was, although there was probably not much. Lastly I would enjoy seeing how people dealt with the low standard of living. There are many differences between him and me. One is that I have never been persecuted. He was every day. That would not be fun. ....

.... says yes his chi says yes also." Pg 19 but at the same time a man does not challenge his chi. "The evil you have done can ruin the whole clan. The earth goddess whom you have insulted may refuse to give us her increase, and we shall all perish." Pg 22 Ezeani said this to okonkwo in response to his challenge against his chi, by beating his wife during the week of peace. Okonkwo can be an example for a person challenging his own chi since his desperate desire to succeed his chi, does not let him go any further than failure, destruction and death. Chi is simultaneously a destiny and an internal commitment that cannot be denied. The Igbo religion has a tendency to symbo ....

.... was in the Cobra gang. He had killed Red Brower with another one of the gang members. Two of the four main characters, Gordie and Chris, portray a strong theme of friendship as a substitute for each of their broken families. The family life of Gordie and Chris are both dysfunctional but due to that, the family situations bring Gordie and Chris closer together. At most times, Chris is Gordie’s father figure, only because Gordie’s true father treats him as if he is nothing.

.... Theory of Human behavior Paragraph 3: God: Big Brother has taken the place of God: Omnipotent and Omniscient, and under the control of the party Among the many themes express in the novel 1984 by George Orwell the most interesting and frightening is the concept of creating an alternative reality to control a mass population. The Inner Party stays in power by shaping the thoughts and opinions of the masses and it does this by creating a reality where everything suits whatever it is the party needs to be believed. This is accomplished in three ways. The first is revisionism or the act of changing facts such as history so that the Party is ....

.... into a town"...[monster] had hardly placed [his] foot within the door ...children shrieked, and ...women fainted" (Shelley 109). From that moment on, he realized that people did not like his appearance and hated him because of it. If villagers didn't run away at the sight of him, then they might have even enjoyed his personality. The monster tried to accomplish this when he encountered the De Lacey family. The monster hoped to gain friendship from the old man and eventually his children. He knew that it could have been possible because the old man was blind; he could not see the monster's repulsive characteristics. But fate was against him and the "wretched" had barel ....

.... by getting different experiences from Merlyn, his tutor, that include exactly what he needs to learn. An example of the kind of experiences given to Arthur is when Merlyn turns him into a fish in order to let him explore. From this experience with the fish, Arthur learns that size and physical strength didn't really matter and instead, it was more important to have intelligence and to know how and when to use it. Merlyn had a very interesting philosophy, which I agree with, he told Arthur "The way to learn it's by listening to the experts." This quote leads to another of the many experiences Arthur had, the one with the hawks. This one was only so that Arthur had a ....

.... had to acknowledge that, and correct what he had done. The only problem was that he didn't. Victor Frankenstein used science to help him build a "monster", but when his experiment failed, he wouldn't take responsibility for his creation. Science is about understanding nature. It incorporates all things around us and attempts to look at every hair, muscle and movement of an object to find out everything about it. Science is also about adding on to what already exists; this was a problem. When Dr. Frankenstein decided to introduce a new being into the world, he didn't have to consult anyone, answer any questions or think into the future. With no monitoring, one scientis ....

.... the new being. It was unlike anything she had known before. At five months the pain was so intense that Harriet began taking tranquilizers. Even during her pregnancy, Harriet began referring to Ben as the "monster." During a conversation with Dr. Brett after he refused to induce the baby, she is quoted as saying, "It's because you don't want to. It's not you who is carrying this" (She cut off monster afraid of antagonizing him.) (p. 47) At eight months she went into labor. Although she had never gone to the hospital before for her other deliveries, this time she insisted. This shocked everyone, especially her husband David. Ben was not your typical baby. " ....
