.... was with them, Ethan tried to show her that he loved her. He would walk her home after a church gathering in the winter and put his arms around her. He tried to show off to her by boasting his skill at sledding, and how he could coast down the dangerous hill and miss the big elm tree that was in the path right around a sharp bend. Mattie fell in love with Ethan too, after a picnic on a summer afternoon. One day, Zeena left Starkfield to see a new doctor in Bettsbridge. Her trip would keep her over night so Ethan and Mattie had the night alone together. Zeena asked Ethan to take her down to the Flats to catch the train, but Ethan said that Jotham Powel would have to do it be ....

.... to his room. 4. The nurse and Alan have a conversation. Alan gets annoyed by the nurse and tells (the first time he didn't sing) the nurse to "Fuck off". 5. Dysart tells the audience about a dream: He dreams that he's a priest in Homeric Greece. He slices children up and takes out their organs. He starts to feel distinctly nauseous, and his face turns green. The Mask he is wearing slips off, and two other priests take the knife out of his hands, because they see his green face and then Dysart wakes up again. 6. Hesther visits Dysart again. They talk about Alan and that he began to talk to Dysart after two days. Dysart mentions that Alan has nightmares in which he screams out ....

.... is a great deal of European influence in American society and in American education. Some people, like the Afrocentrists, feel that this influence is too heavy and that schools should also be teaching about other cultures in their classes. Schlesinger states in his book that he "believes in the importance of teaching Americans the history of other cultures—East Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, Polynesia." Since we live in a multicultural society, we should be teaching a multicultural curriculum. At my high school, I feel as if I received this type of education. The teachers encourage students to read not only standard English literature, but also to st ....

.... the repetitious last lines serve to strengthen the speaker’s thoughts. In the first, third, and fifth stanzas, the last lines match each other; in the second and fourth stanzas, the final lines match. The final stanza combines the last lines from the odd and even-numbered stanzas for an additional line. This portrays the ongoing war between life and death. The old man went back and forth between life and death as the stanzas’ last lines switched back and forth. In the end, the two last lines join together as the old man and his son accept that death is a part of life. Next, the references to “good men,” “wild men,” and  ....

.... in order to ease the transition from place to place, thus easing the sense of not belonging to the society around her. When she was invited to join the Mask and Wig Club, she was very surprised and excited to have been included into the community. This gave her a feeling of belonging and acceptance. Another thing that is important to us is forming friendships with others. The brief time spent in each town made it hard for Helen to get to know others. She seemed to slip into her own “protective bottle”, moving from place to place almost mechanically, making it harder for people to get to know her. By joining the Mask and Wig Club, in North Crawford, sh ....

.... husband was her only way of life. Then, when he died, her mirror was shattered. This left her unable to survive without reflecting her husband’s light, just as the show could not go on without the public coming to watch it. Following Kukin’s death, Olga knew to do nothing else but morn. As it says, “She was always in love with someone and could not live otherwise (Chekov, 46).” At this point, there was no one for her to love. Then, when timber merchant Pustovalov came along, she once again fell in love. This changed her life of theater into a new life of business. “Whatever ideas her husband had became her own (Chekov, 49).” At one point, her trying so ....

.... small class of people. Some time ago, our English class read T.S. Elliot's "The Love Song of Alfred J. Prufrock", a long poem in the form of a soliloquy on whether or not the persona should or should not approach a woman he loves, eat a peach, or part his hair. Critiques declared it as the modern Hamlet -- a reflection of the consciousness of the Modern Man. They exclaimed that the poem is a concise description of resent ideologies and philosophies. With a lot of difficulty and guidance, we understood and even appreciated the poem, primarily because we are familiar with the "language" that Elliot used. But would a farmer or just abut any individual unfamiliar with th ....

.... universe, he pointed the way that science, as a new civil religion, might take in developing such a theory. Bacon divided theology into the natural and the revealed. Natural theology is the knowledge of God which we can get from the study of nature and the creatures of God. Convincing proof is given of the existence of God but nothing more. Anything else must come from revealed theology. Science and philosophy have felt the need to justify themselves to laymen. The belief that nature is something to be vexed and tortured to the compliance of man will not satisfy man nor laymen. Natural science finds its proper method when the 'scientist' puts Nature to the question, tortures ....
