... to help us continue through High School College. As humbly as I may, I propose to solve this problem and help the students of Jesuit Prep enjoy these classrooms of boredom. This proposal, deeply thought out to solve the common problem of students sleeping and hurting their future lives and careers is to place table top dancers in every classroom. I have worked out the details entailing the added cost of these daily dancing ladies. A well-known friend of mine, who owns a nightclub off of Harry Hines, was kind enough to divulge the rates per hour that dancers, he could find for Jesuit Prep, would accept. The amount I was told is $5.00 per hour, ensured ...
... look and furnishing.! At first it was, “a wild, impossible notion, to be abandoned as soon as though of.”(82) One thing that leads to him later renting the apartment is the fact that their is no visible telescreen. The owner told Winston the he never had one because, “Too expensive. And I never seemed to feel the need of it somehow.”(82) In truth their was a telescreen behind the etching, which leads to the capture of Winston and Julia. The apartment was a huge symbol of the past to Winston. The apartment is decorated with relics of the past: a double bed, a metal etching of a church, a bookshelf filled with ancient tomes. Winston and Julia use these i ...
... these incredible events. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Act I, Scene ii: This scene opens in contrast to the first scene. The first scene takes place on the dark, cold isolated ramparts; this scene begins in a brightly lit court, with the new king, Claudius, celebrating his recent wedding to his new wife, Gertrude. Everyone in the court appears happy and joyful, except one character who is sitting off to the side. He is dressed in black, the colour of mourning, and does not like what he sees. The lone figure is , the main character of the play. He is wearing black because it has been only two months since his father, se ...
... he knew”, Dunstan- “the keeper of his conscience and the stone”, Paul- whom granted his inner most wish, and lastly, Boy Staunton himself. It can be observed that childhood experiences play a very important role in the stableness of ones soul. One mishap in childhood can create a devastating blow to ones true happiness in later life. This was exactly the case in Boy Staunton's life. Once, when he was little, he got in an argument with Dunny which led to snowballs being launched at Dunny from an aggravated Boy Staunton. The last snowball concealed a rock, and hit Dunny's neighbor Mary Dempster in the head. As a result, she gave birth prematurely (to Paul ...
... Torvold had said, and then the one time that Torvold cold have been loyal to Nora and believed her and been on her side he didn’t and instead was thinking about himself. This shows how much of a one-sided marriage it was and how it was a mock on society, mainly the ways of the upper class. Next is the criticism of the role of the women in society. It was basically a time where the woman could not do anything for herself. An example of this from the book is the loan that Nora took out to save Torvold’s life. Nora could not take out the loan herself due to the fact that she was a women and only men could take out loans, a women could only take out a lo ...
... Arthur Dimmesdale, to the people of Boston, was a holy icon. According to the public, "never had a man spoken in so wise, so high, and so holy a spirit, as he… nor had inspiration ever breathed through mortal lips more evidently than it did through his" (167). Dimmesdale had risen through the ranks of the church and had the utmost respect of the people of Boston. Dimmesdale's "eloquence and religious fervor had already given the earnest of high eminence in his profession" (48). Hawthorne pointed out that Dimmesdale was a very influential and powerful speaker, whose soft spoken words, "affected them [the townspeople] like the speech of an angel" (48). Dimm ...
... sin of the novel. She did not deliberately commit her sin or mean to hurt others. Hester’s sin is that her passions and love were of more importance to her than the Puritan moral code. This is shown when she says to Dimmesdale, “What we did had a consecration of its own. We felt it so! We said so to each other!” Hester fully acknowledged her guilt and displayed it with pride to the world. This was obvious by the way she displayed the scarlet letter. It was elaborately designed as if to show Hester was proud of what she had done. Hester is indeed a sinner; adultery is not a minor affair, even today. On the other hand, her sin has brought her not evil, but go ...
... him now..."(82) Chee is trying to grow food and he thinks that if he cares for the land and respects it that the earth would in turn make the food grow well. Another way to show this is how Chee thought that if he "Take care of the land and it will take care of you."(81) Chee cared and respected the land and in turn the land gave him food for which he would to barter back Little One from Old Man Fat. Chee treats the land as an equal. "he felt so strongly that just now this was something between himself and the land."(82) Chee treats the land as an equal, respects it and it respects him by giving him the food he needs. Where he lives is pure and real, like the eart ...
... of despair"(p.34). This is the beginning of Edna’s awakening, for such emotions, especially despair, are not an end but a beginning because they take away the excuses and guilts, those toward herself, from which she suffers. This revelation of previously hidden conflicts gives birth to dramatic emotions within Edna. It is so powerful that Edna wonders if she "shall ever be stirred again as...Reisz’s playing moved" her that night (p.38). For Edna, the times that Reisz plays are times when she "take[s] an impress of the abiding truth" and realizes her true desires(p.34). When Edna visits her, Reisz first improvises at the instrument and then pla ...
... four irregular lumps of limestone. Its windows were merely open spaces in the walls, which in the summer were covered with greasy strips of cheese cloth to keep out the varmints that feasted on Maycomb's refuse." This description paints a very vivid picture of the cabin and also tells a little bit about the Ewells themselves. From this we can infer that the Ewells took very little (if any at all) pride in their home and it's appearance. Later in the passage Lee adds, "What passed for a fence was bits of tree limbs, broomsticks and tool shafts, all tipped with rusty hammer heads, shovels, axes and grubbing hoes, held on with pieces of barbed wire." By now it is ap ...
