... hit something,…’"(Lee 97). That is when they realize that their father is a humble man who doesn’t like to show off his talent. Another misperception that Scout has is about Mrs. Dubose.

... come and taste his pipe of Amontillado. Of course Fortunato could not refuse. Montresor takes him to his catacombs and leads him down to where the pipe is supposed to be. As they are walking, you notice more foreshadowing to the death of Fortunato when he say’s, “ the cough is a mere nothing; it will not kill me. I shall not die of a cough,” and Montresor replies, “ True – true,“ (11800). But unlike his name suggests, Fortunato is not so fortunate. He does not realize that he is walking towards his own death, and example of dramatic irony. While Fortunato is drunk, he gives Montresor a sign that he doesn’t understand.

... the lines "Gun-thunder leaps and thuds along the ridge; / The spouting shells dig pits in fields of death," seem to recreate the sounds of the weapons. The shells dig pits in the fields as though ready for the wounded men to fill. The poet expresses the hope that anyone he cares for could be spared this experience, and that they get back home wounded, but alive. The lines "It's sundown in the camp; some youngster laughs, / Lifting his mug and drinking health to all / Who came unscathed from that unpitying waste:- / (Terror and ruin lurk behind his gaze.)" are deeply touching, a man tries to hide his fear behind a facade of bravado, but it is all too clear in h ...
... The location where she seeks isolation is important. She retreats to her bedroom in a comfortable armchair, indicating that this is a place where she feels safe.

Body and soul free!” She views the world with a fresh outlook: one where she will be her own person, answering only to herself.

... together, and to prevent any kind of disunity that might challenge the church’s institutional values.” In The Scarlet Letter, Boston even held special Election Day sermons. These were then followed by a special procession given by the town for the “minister whom they so loved.” However, these beloved church leaders were not the perfect devout workers of God that they professed to be. Reverend Dimmesdale, was an adulterer and father of an illegitimate child. Reverend Danforth of The Crucible, was a money hungry old man who appeared to be preaching for his own greedy, personal gain. Both men, however, were allowed to get away with their sin ...
... between the roofs, hovered for an instant like a blue bottle, and darted away again with a curving flight. It was the police patrol snooping into people’s windows”(Orwell 4). However unlikely it may seem, our government has the capability to watch us just as “the party” watches the citizens of Oceania. As we speak, hundreds of satellites orbit our planet, each capable of watching everything we do outside. This technological advancement highly mimics that of the telescreens in 1984. If our government wished, it could use helicopters to peer into our windows just as “the party” did in the novel. “‘I didn’t wa ...
... This song "Beasts of England" describes a peaceful life where all animals will live in harmony, no longer enslaved by humans. Riches more than mind can picture, Wheat and barley, oats and hay, Clover, beans and mangel-wurzels Shall be ours upon that day.

Lennin too had caused his comrades to rise up in rebellion against the Czarist form of government in the hope of creating a country where everyone would be equal. Before ...
... they attempt, as Huck says, to "sivilize" him. This process includes making Huck go to school, teaching him various religious facts, and making him act in a way that the women find socially acceptable. Huck, who has never had to follow many rules in his life, finds the demands the women place upon him constraining and the life with them lonely. As a result, soon after he first moves in with them, he runs away. He soon comes back, but, even though he becomes somewhat comfortable with his new life as the months go by, Huck never really enjoys the life of manners, religion, and education that the Widow and her sister impose upon him. Huck be ...
