.... was better able to write about the noble Baskerville family. The aristocrats in the story were also portrayed as the “good” chracters which shows the reader Doyle’s opinion of the noblemen. Doyle knew about nobility and he was able to pass this personal quality onto his characters. The Baskerville family was a very respected one, especially after Sir Charles took control over Baskerville Hall. "Though Sir Charles resided at Baskerville Hall for a comparatively short period, his amiability of character and extreme generosity had won the affection and respect of all who had been brought into contact with him." (Doyle 19) The noble Baskerville family is very likely a re ....

.... from the formula western signifies his deeper approach towards issues such as human existence and morality—the ethical code that we follow for success. Crane perhaps does this because he personally finds more significance in the inner meaning of an issue rather than its surfacing argument. Cawelti’s Western formula holds a strong assumption that men are assertive and women are insignificant. He is standardizing the black and white of the West. There is an unequivocal struggle between good and evil—and guns and violence can only solve that. Jane Tompkins standpoint on a Western seems to be a middle ground between Cawelti and Crane. She recognizes ....

.... an ambulance driver for the Red Cross. His experiences as an ambulance driver were very traumatic for him, he was injured numerous times and he witnessed many painful images that made coming home and readjusting to life a difficult task. In 1919 Ernest Hemingway returned to his home in Oak Park, Illinois. He was only nineteen yeas old, and returning home seemed very boring compared to his experiences during the war. While he was away he experienced life in a different country and had romantic encounters with older women. Coming home seemed boring to him because he was returning to the same old town that he had grown up in. There was nothing exciting going on, he ha ....

.... Trunion and Willard proceed to make love with each other yet despite this intimacy Willard has in his heart " no sympathy for her". The fact that Trunion is viewed scandalously by the town and Willard while Trunion's partners were not shamed at all shows a view by Anderson and society at the time he wrote that female promiscuity was unaccceptable, but for males the view was just “boys will be boys”. In truth, this double standard is still present today. Louise Hardy is a second example of Anderson's showing a negative portrayal of women. Her temper was shown by Anderson as being so terrible that "everyone agreed that she was to blame" for the difficulties in her ....

.... work of art really a Tragedy? Aristotle, one of the greatest men in the history of human thought, interpreted Tragedy as a genre aimed to present a heightened and harmonious imitation of nature, and, in particular, those aspects of nature that touch most closely upon human life. This I think Macbeth attains. However, Aristotle adds a few conditions. According to Aristotle, a tragedy must have six parts: plot, character, diction, thought, spectacle, and song. Most important is the plot, the structure of the incidents. Tragedy is not an imitation of men, but of action and life. It is by men's actions that they acquire happiness or sadness. Aristotle stated, in response to Pla ....

.... leave the reader satisfied one way or another in the end. What is interesting is when the narrator takes on a different type of role in a novel. He is no longer used merely as a device to incorporate information; instead he plays an important and active part in the development of the plot. Traditionally the narrator is usually outside of the story, but in The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Nick Carraway (the narrator) is much more than that. Nick in this novel is an active member of the story, being only second in importance to the main character Jay Gatsby. This novel takes a very different approach in its development of the characters. Having the narrator ....

.... "It was a wild-looking place, and there was no one there" we are given the mother's view of the boy's beach, which in her opinion is "wild looking". This gives us a clear picture of the setting. Additionally, the sentence "He went out fast over the gleaming sand, over a middle region where rocks lay like discolored monsters under the surface, and then he was in the real sea - a warm sea where irregular cold currents from the deep water shocked his limbs" clearly describes the beach where the boy is swimming and how it is seen by him. With the addition of words like "discoloured monsters" and "real sea" we can tell what the boy's feeling are toward his beach which he consi ....
