... answered with an explanation from Count Pococurant that shows that he is happy with them, but is becoming tired of their presence. (118) Voltaire strongly appeals to the reader with this scene because mankind places male/female companionship as a top priority of life. Psychologists have classified human companionship as one of the most essential sociological needs of mankind. This is confusing to 's because Count Pococurant is unsatisfied with two girls that caught 's attention with their beauty, their style, and their manner. (118) To add to the irony of this situation, 's journey throughout the novel is a pursuant for a woman that he sees to be a good companion ...

... greatly admired, and the hasty remarriage of his mother to his uncle. Hamlet thinks his father was an "excellent king," who loved his mother so much "that he may might not beteem the winds of heaven/ Visit her face to roughly" (I, ii, 140-141). However, his mother mourned for "a little month" and then she married a man who was "no more like [his] father/ Than [he] to Hercules" (I, ii, 153-152). These extraordinary events cause him to launch into a state of melancholy and depression in which he desires "that this too too solid flesh would melt" (I, ii, 129). In this melancholy, Hamlet loses becomes disenchanted with life, and to him the world seems "weary, stale, fl ...
... likely that Mme. Defarge would attempt this limb. Mme. Defarge's behavior appears to be secretive. Because there are strangers in the taver, Mme. Defarge warns her husband with gentle coughs and raises her eyebrows to get his attention. Mme. Defarge said nothing...but coughed just one grain of cough. This, in combination with lifting her darkly defined eyebrows suggesting to her husband that it would do him well to look around the shop.(pg. 28). The reader, at this point, becomes aware of the same secrecy between the Defarges but is unsure why. Charles Dickens certainly used the wine shop to install an element of secrecy in the novel. He shows that certain indiv ...
... in an easy manner which they can understand, since the full version is quite challenging to read, even to many adults. This version of Dracula is laid out in a series of two-page spreads. This breaks the story into smaller sections which are easier to absorb than a continuous piece of writing, particularly for a child. Each spread is laid out with the text in the middle of the spread, surrounded by colourful pictures relating to the writing, small quotes and sidebars containing factual information, again relating to points in the writing. Along the top of the opening spread is a landscape picture of a rustic village, probably Bistritz, which is mentioned in the te ...

They got their flashlights and shovels and started walking toward the house. They climbed the fence and had a rough drop down the fence.

Jerry and Carrie were both scared, but they did not admit it. Ten they herd a rustle, Jerry said “here kitty kitty.” Just to try to convince him that ...
... the pig. He represents the human frailties of any revolution. Orwell believed that although socialism is a good ideal, it could never be successfully adopted due to uncontrollable sins of human nature. For example, although Napoleon seems at first to be a good leader, he is eventually overcome by greed and soon becomes power-hungry. Of course Stalin did too in Russia, leaving the original equality of socialism behind, giving him all the power and living in luxury while the common pheasant suffered. Orwell explains: “Somehow it seemed as though the farm had grown richer without making the animals themselves any richer - except of course for the pigs and the do ...
... of the book. One of the main character's that is affected the most is Arthur Dimmesdale. Dimmesdale handles it in a different way though, to him its more of a "concealed sin." A example of this is, "It may be that they are kept silent by the very constitution of their nature. Or - can we not suppose it - guilty as they may be, retaining, nevertheless, a zeal for God's glory and man's welfare, they shrink from displaying themselves black and filthy in the view of men; because, thenceforward, no good can be achieved by them; no evil or the past be redeemed by better service." Dimmesdale also has another reason for his concealing, he wants to remain silent so t ...
