Huck Finn Essay
Number of words: 806 - Number of pages: 3

.... ways of nineteenth century society and the “improper” behavior that Huck is accustomed to dealing with. This insight that Twain gives to the reader is further expanded with the introduction of Huck’s Pap into the story. After leaving Huck for a little over a year, Pap comes back for Huck, figuring he may have something to gain. “That’s why I come. You git me that money tomorrow- I want it.” [29] are Pap’s words to Huck when they first reunite. Pap, the person most responsiable for Huck’s welfare, is the person who abuses Huck the most. Even though Huck is outside of the ci .....

Human Nature: Exposed
Number of words: 1420 - Number of pages: 6

.... his writing, it becomes apparent that Twain supports the thematic idea of the human race being hypocritical. For instance, take the scene in Chapter 20 where a group of people in Arkansas are listening to the sermon of a preacher. In this descriptive passage, it can be inferred through Twain's writing that the average person of this time was in fact "blinded" by religious influences. The significance of this event can be observed later on in Chapter 21 where Twain describes the horrific abuse of animals. "There couldn't anything wake them up all over, and make them happy all over, like .....

To Kill A Mockingbird
Number of words: 1399 - Number of pages: 6

.... Miss Caroline seems to have been instructed upon a strict standard on how her students are expected to behave, but when she encounters something different, such as Scout's advanced ability to read, she advises Scout to stop being advanced, whereas a modern-day schoolteacher would capitalize on Scout's ability to read and encourage her to read more. "You won't learn to write until you're in the third grade." (pg. 23) The strict, recipe-style, rubric method of teaching that Miss Caroline uses is once again emphasized here. Miss Caroline once again discourages Scout's advanced abilities and reg .....

.... direction in life: “‘Do you feel absolutely no concern for your future, boy?' ‘Oh, I feel some concern for my future, all right. Sure. Sure, I do.'

Animal Farm By George Orwell

.... and their determination to struggle against capitalism. Like Old Major, Lenin and Marx wrote essays and gave speeches to the working class poor. The working class in Russia, as compared with the barnyard animals in Animal Farm, were a laboring class of people that received low wages for their work. Like the animals in the farm yard, the people is Russia thought there would be no oppression in a new society because the working class people (or animals) would own all the riches and hold all the power.

Number of words: 545 - Number of pages: 2

.... sex was deeply implanted in her. She practiced pretending to enjoy love-making so as to not offend her husband.

The time when they had done everything but go to bed came. Deborah threw a tantrum, and Chris understood completely that it was her fear of an inability to perform. Deborah opened he .....

Stoker And Rice's Books About Vampires
Number of words: 1924 - Number of pages: 7

.... mist. He uses these powers so humans dont detect his presence. As a gas he can pass by humans without them even noticing and as a bat he can cover more ground in a shorter amount of time. Rice's novels mention nothing of being able to morph into a bat, mist or anything else for that matter. The ability to fly is used in each novel but they are used very differently. In Dracula the count can fly but, in order to do this he must turn into a bat and fly as a bat would fly. More powerful vampires in The Vampire Chronicles can fly as , for example, super man would fly. In .....

A Clean Well Lighted Place
Number of words: 2031 - Number of pages: 8

.... nerves. Unfortunately for the old man, this light is an artificial one, and its serenity is fleeting and deficient. Maybe the old man hides in the shadows of the leaves because he recognizes the shortcoming of his sanctuary. Perhaps he is drawn to the shadows so that the darkness of his own age will not be so visible as it would be in the full force of the electric light. His body is dark with effects of illness. Even his ears bring him a sort of shadows as they hold out the sounds of the world. The old man's deafness is a powerful image used in the story. Deafness shuts the old man out fro .....

A Rumor Of War

.... were not Viet Cong. During war, innocent people are killed all the time in trying to win the fight. I do not understand how action is only taken on selective occasions. I am sure that many innocent women and children are killed when bombs are dropped unexpectedly, I do not see how this is any different. The sole aim of this war was to kill Viet Cong. I think that it would be very difficult to distinguish between the Viet Cong and civilians, especially because many Viet Cong tried to pose as civilians, and even carried false paperwork. Caputo made many statements about how important he .....

Number of words: 881 - Number of pages: 4

.... this is shown throughout the book. It all started when d'Artagnan was pursuing the man from Meung and ran in to Athos, who was freshly wounded in a small skirmish with the Cardinal's Guards.
