... question his religion as the devil tried to pursue him as the devil did to Goody Clause, the Minister, the Deacon, Brown’s wife, and others. The devil would immediately approach anyone who entered the woods and try to recruit them into his ways. The woods in the Brown story are definitely nowhere anyone would want to journey off into, as they may never leave in the same state of mind. The woods, in my story are creepy in appearance as most woods are, but are very safe and calming . My woods are overcome with nature at it’s best and great scenery. As one passes through my woods, they will notice a large pond where one can sit and watch as animals come from all ...
... mutiny might occur and does not want it to happen. Captain Vere could possibly be using Billy's execution for his crime of killing Claggart as an example for the rest of the crew. It shows the crew what will happen to them if they try to start a mutiny. After Billy's death CaptainVere obviously feels regret for executing Billy. Captain Vere's last words are “Billy Budd, Billy Budd” (p. 76) show an example of this. Those last words might symbolize that Captain Vere killed Billy for the wrong reasons. If CaptainVere uses Billy's death for an example to the rest of the crew then it might not necessarily be the wrong reason. CaptainVere has to decide between o ...
... In 1884, the Cather's moved their four children to a town called Red Cloud in Nebraska where they arrived to a place uninhabited, but with much fortune and hard work ahead of them. 3 In 1890, Willa attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln where she gained the knowledge and creativity to write such beautiful work. In her first works, Willa's animosity towards Nebraska was relevant in her work. 4 After she went east in 1896 and became editor of McClure's Magazine and gained success, her feeling toward Nebraska changed, which was evident in "The Bohemian Girl," in 1912. 5 When she published O Pioneers in 1913, many of her memories of childhood and life on t ...
... was taunting you to give chase, what would you do?" My method of attacking the question, how would the three main characters from Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter see the whiteness of the whale?, is going to be a comparison to Melville's characters. The first comparison is between Hester Prynne and Ishmael. Hester Prynne is a brave lady who faces her sin, as seen in her ability to face severe ridicule on the scaffold. Ishmael is a brave young man who handles any conflict with a strong will, as seen in his agreement to sign onto a whaling ship without knowing the captain. It is also seen in his ability to share a bed with a stranger, and share in his religiou ...

... This makes her attitude towards the dance understandable. When Mason Williams comes to dance with her, she describes dancing with a `nobody' like her was "as offensive to him as having to memorize Shakespeare." The narrator's school life was just as bad if not worse. She would never be sure of herself when she is called up to the blackboard. Her "hands became slippery with sweat when they were required to work the blackboard compass." She would also envision the worst case scenario, that she had her period prior to being called to the front of the class, even when impossible. This shows that her self-esteem is really low, and she could not deal with ...
... at home with people, share a little of life in common with others, satisfy my hunger to be and live.” Wright fills the chapter with a calm and mesmorizing tone; like that of a preecher drawing his audience into a hymm.

... to even his alleged motives through which he shows his ambivalence of nature. His goodness of nature is not pure but simply good in appearence to the other characters. The reader sees the true evil of Iago and how he fools the other characters into believing he is an honorable man. His false displays begin with him and Roderego informing Brabantio of Desedemona's marriage to Othello, a Moor. The reader knows from the conversation between Iago and Roderego in Act I scene 1 that the two men are upset that Iago is not Lieutenant and Roderego cannot have Desedemona and they are acting out of Malice and retaliation. But, to Brabantio, their acts appear to be out ...
