Kreutzer Sonata
1124 Words - 5 Pages

.... be anything but purely physical and that emotional love is only a temporary feeling that can never sustain a strong and long term relationship such as marriage. From these generalizations he comes to the conclusion that there is no such thing as everlasting love. In the story, women are constantly described as devious beings that need to be dealt with carefully in relationships such as marriage. Pozdnyshev believes women to be naturally weaker, and therefore lack the rights afforded to men. Despite this incongruity, women can easily level the playing field by utilizing what Pozdnyshev calls their "sensuality". Once this option is exercised, the inequalities are not o ....


King Lear
807 Words - 3 Pages

.... The very first words that he speaks in the play are :- "...Give me the map there. Know that we have divided In three our kingdom, and 'tis our fast intent To shake all cares and business from our age, Conferring them on younger strengths while we Unburdened crawl to death..." (Act I, Sc i, Ln 38-41) This gives the reader the first indication of Lear's intent to abdicate his throne. He goes on further to offer pieces of his kingdom to his daughters as a form of reward to his test of love. "Great rivals in our youngest daughter's love, Long in our court have made their amorous sojourn, And here are to be answered. Tell me, my daughters (Since now we will divest us both ....


Comparison Of "The Devil And Tom Walker" And "The Devil And Daniel Webster"
544 Words - 2 Pages

.... gets borers. The only real detail he gives about the surroundings is that he lives on the Cross Corners of New Hampshire and that he's on a farm. The story doesn't give much description on what his house looks like or the scenery. Also, in “The Devil and Daniel Webster” it tells the story at a quicker pace. Jabez meets the Devil and makes a deal before the story and plot really develop very much. In the “Devil and Tom Walker” the story goes into a lot of details about how his house is raggedy, ugly, and trashy looking. No man traveling ever stops at their house. His wife hides things, is mean, and a loud-mouth. The story describes how Tom walked through the murky swa ....


The Crucible - Burn The Witch
824 Words - 3 Pages

.... be trailed were Betty Parris and Abigail Williams. Movie shows that it was Ruth Putnam whose real name is actually Ann. The Parris family is somewhat confusing in the film compared to actually history. History shows that Betty Parris also had a brother Thomas and a sister Susannah, which were not mentioned in the film at all. Also, the film says that Betty’s mother is dead but according to history she did not die until 1696. Reverend Parris never graduated from Harvard as stated in the movie. He did attend for a short while but later dropped out. Even though most people believe those young girls were the only ones accused, also grown men and women were too. Hi ....


Shilo
736 Words - 3 Pages

.... (666). When Mabel was younger, was thin and good-looking, she would have been a model Sergeant. Now, she is envisioned in a long loose fitting dress. Flower patterns cover the dress from shoulder to ankle. It conceals the bulges overhanging from different parts of her body, as the years have added the extra pounds. The dress is divided in the middle with a white belt and gold buckle. This is the kind of belt and buckle Drill Sergeant Mabel would wear during her inspection of Norma Jean’s house: "she inspects the closets and then the plants, informing Norma Jean when a plant is droopy or yellow. She also notices if Norma Jean’s laundry is piling up" ....


Book Report On The Catcher In
533 Words - 2 Pages

.... In 1942, he was drafted into the Army. Finally, in 1953, he met Claire Douglas. Two years later, in 1955, he married her. After having 2 children, he unfortunatley withdrew more and more from society. But his career was not wasted. In this book, Salinger shows just how creative a writer he really was. From the opening of the book, where an old and withered Holden Caulfield begins with a distant flashback from a rest home to his days in Pencey Prep, a boy's school in Pennsylvania, to the end where an obviously senile Holden, back at the rest home, claims he will be able to leave soon and that he will go back to school next September. I found the ending to be anti-clim ....


Role Of Queen In Beowulf & Gre
1475 Words - 6 Pages

.... how she promoted peace from her arrival because she was an essential part in keeping peace, as the "weaver of peace" in the later of both texts. Queen Wealhtheow however is not the only woman in the texts that was forsaken to encourage appeasement amongst feuding courts. Queen Hygd was offered to Hygelac under very similar circumstances as told in Beowulf, and portrayed the same role in Hygelac's kingdom. There is reference in both texts concerning this tradition, and it is evident to the reader that this is not an unusual Anglo-Saxon custom. Queen Wealhtheow and Queen Hygd served as excellent role models for the courts in which they ....


Identity In Metamorphasis And
896 Words - 4 Pages

.... those around him. This easily can be seen through any number of speeches given by Gabriel, but it is particularly evident when he states "He was undecided about the lines from Robert Browning for he feared that they would be above the heads of his readers."(Dead, 334). He lords his superior knowledge and social niceties above the rest of his family, treating them like some subclass of humanity better left untouched. His wife scoffs at the fact that the majority of the attenders of the party do not even grasp the concept of galoshes, a 'neccesity' of life that has not filtered down to the less fortunate. Gabriel's shame for his famile is readily apparent. He speaks down to th ....
