... Jacqueline is the not so pretty and quiet sister and Marguerite is the loud obnoxious pretty one. One similarity is that in both movies, Cinderella and Danielle are servants to their stepmother and stepsisters. They are also not allowed to eat with them, only serve them. In “Ever After”, Danielle’s only friends are the other servants of the house, this is similar to how Cinderella is friends with the mice that live in her house. In both cases their friends are always protective and willing to help. In “Cinderella”, Cinderella doesn’t meet the prince before the ball, she doesn’t even really expect to be going to ...
... reveals another green world, the green world of youth. Like schoolchildren, the young soldiers circulate rumor within the regiment. This natural setting proves an ironic place for killing, just as these fresh men seem the wrong ones to be fighting in the Civil War. Crane remarks on this later in the narrative: "He was aware that these battalions with their commotions were woven red and startling into the gentle fabric of the softened greens and browns. It looked to be a wrong place for a battlefield" (69). Green is an image of the natural world and of the regiment's fresh youth, while red, in the previous quote, is clearly an image of battle. At the start, howe ...
... on his character by a disinterested party.” Was Hamlet out of his mind, or was he pretending to be crazy? Did anyone realize what Hamlet’s dilemma, such as Ophelia, the King, and the Queen? What was his delay? Could it be that Hamlet was not so much afraid of killing the king, but hurting his mother, mentally, emotionally, after the death of her King and her abrupt marriage to Claudius. Was Hamlet afraid, that maybe the ghost of his father wasn’t really his father’s ghost at all, in that it was a trick of the devil? Hamlet’s over analysis is what turns out to be the reason for so many deaths, including his own. His procrastination k ...
... and fellow gang members. When his best pal, Johnny, kills a member of the Socs, they must take refuge inside an abandoned church in another town to escape the police. After that, a long chain of violent and dramatic events ensues and puts the boys in the most dreadful situation of their lives. The characters in this book are fairly realistic and believable. They may seem a tad different to a kid nowadays, but keep in mind that this takes place in the 1960's. S.E. Hinton's plot is not very difficult to understand, since the story rarely gets complicated. It is suitable for readers of all ages, from adolescents to adults. The setting of this book is not o ...
... in Migelito's choice to wear it. "He left the top button of his shirt open to make sure the crucifix showed and he walked with pride, relieved to be taking a step so bold and defiant." This statement alone proves that not only does he wear the piece of jewelry for his love of god, but also to show his resistance towards the rules. Another big example of resistant behavior is the meer fact that the two family members converse openly throughout the story. Foreigners and natives are not allowed to speak at all in Cuba, and by conversing the two are leaving themselves at severe risk of being punished. These types of "little resistive fights" occur through the en ...
... You might expect on Romeo to be prying on everyone who walks past because of the messenger, but instead he is joking – this might be because he doesn’t want anyone else to know about the marriage OR that he is to excited. Shortly after this, he changes back to serious when he is talking to Nurse about the marriage. ยท He still is joyful towards the marriage scene and at the marriage scene he takes the extreme again - he acts like he has not seen Juliet for years, they can’t wait to get there hands on each other – kissing, Friar Laurence had to separate them. Once they are married, he visits Tybalt and Mercutio in the square; he is mi ...
... I could maybe devolp a cure for dieases, or make a new transportation vehicle that would not be pollutive to the enviroment. I may even may make something that would help re-juvinate the depleted ozone layer or improve surgical technics. So if I could be smart then i could someday think of something that may help the world and to me that would be much better then being famous for being rich or to have a power. If I was smart I could also see some bad points to being extreamly smart. If I was too smart then nothing in my life span would be a challenege. Everything would be so easy to finish or accomplish because i'd already know how to do it. Being smart woul ...
... crops. That each new day we're causing millions and millions of people to suffer and even die just because we can't "discuss matters" anymore. Sometimes i wonder is this "do or die " method going to be our only way of communication. Will we ever get to know the meaning of the word peace again or is humanity cursed to suffer forever. All these thoughts and questions were generated by just a simple question by a little innocent soul.A soul which will have to grow up in a war field and be either an enforcer to it or a victim of it .A hard choice of either becoming heartless or lifless, and the choice is irreplacable..... when alone i walked away and left her of ...
... that all depended on the pearl. When Juana wanted to destroy the pearl, Kino beat her unmercifully: He struck her in the face and she fell among the boulders, and he kicked her in the side...He hissed at her like a snake and she stared at him with wide unfrightened eyes, like a sheep before a butcher. (742) Juana saw through the outer beauty of the pearl and knew it would destroy them, but Kino's vision was blurred by the possible prosperity the pearl brought. The malignant evil then spread to a secret cult known only as the trackers. This corrupt band of ruffians attacked and destroyed Kino's life. The very night that the ...
... was a prime example where deception led to negative consequences in that she would have been spared the entire encumbrance of the crime if she did not deceive the townspeople. Although seemingly, her paramour did not escape punishment. In fact, the father of her bastard child took a more severe sentence. Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale seemed to be an upstanding, young priest. The whole town liked him and respected him as a holy man. Thus, his deception was much more direct and extreme when he did not confess that he impregnated Hester Prynne. Unlike Hester, he was not publicly punished. So although Hester overcame her ordeal and went on with her life, Dimmesdale exac ...
