To Kill A Mockingbird: Injustice
Number of words: 656 - Number of pages: 3.... without getting aggravated because he was
falsely accused, and conducted himself as a gentleman. Tom's actions depict
the kind of man he truly was, not one to rape and beat a helpless teenager,
but one to conduct himself as a civilized human being. I strongly feel
that this is a remedy that Harper Lee offers on the subject of dealing with
everyday injustice. Instead of getting angry when someone puts us down, we
should react by laughing along with the person or even just walki ng away.
These reactions may douse the person's sprit to criticize you and end the
tormenting

In fact, after the story unfolded, the hermit was so upset that he was "forced" to leave behind his shelter to look for a new place, thinking that he would rather not have a roof at all rather than live near the woman. He could not tend to his proper thoughts, .....

The Stranger: Existentialism
Number of words: 545 - Number of pages: 2.... The Arab had drawn his
knife and held it up to Meursault, but this wasn't what bothered him, it
was the light from the sun that shot off the Arabs knife, and the intense
heat along with the salt from his sweat in his eyes that was bothering him.
Meursault shot the Arab mainly because he was uncomfortable and not because
he felt threatened, but in any case he made the decision to shoot him. In
the next chapter Meursault can't understand why he would need an attorney
for his case because it's simple to him, he had murdered a man and was now
ready to pay the consequences. He had made a choice .....

The Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn: Conflict Between Society And The Individual
Number of words: 549 - Number of pages: 2.... he has been killed, we see how
civilization is more concerned over finding Huck's dead body than rescuing
his live one from Pap. This is a society that is more concerned about a
dead body than it is in the welfare of living people.
The theme becomes even more evident once Huck and Jim set out, down
the Mississippi. Huck enjoys his adventures on the raft. He prefers the
freedom of the wilderness to the restrictions of society. Also, Huck's
acceptance of Jim is a total defiance of society. Ironically, Huck believes
he is committing a sin by going against society and protecting Jim. He .....

that he left everyone for his own safety. This taught Cory that people

begin to lose. It also shows that they lose almost all of their
responsibilities during the summer. This ritual brought the boys together

Flowers For Algernon 4
Number of words: 772 - Number of pages: 3.... main characters in the novel include Charlie, Alice, Algernon, and
Fay, a character who did not make much of an appearance, but in my eyes
believed, that she played a very important part in Charlie's involvement in
trying to sort out his past and figure out his present and future plans.
Charlie is a mentally retarded person who has impressing people and gaining
friends as one of his top priorities. He then hears of an experiment which
could possibly make him smart. He makes himself subject to this human
experiment with the hopes of gaining knowledge in a sole purpose of gaining
frie .....

Heroic Qualities In The Hobbit
Number of words: 602 - Number of pages: 3.... a heroic situation is in chapter 9.
Bilbo is very lucky when he is able to first escape the elves. He is again
lucky when he is able to explore the elven palace at such great length.
Yet another example of his luck is when extremely potent wine comes in
barrels,and ends up putting the chief guard asleep who is in sole
possession of the keys which can unlock all the dwarves prisons. So with
all these examples of how luck can be a factor in heroism I am left to
believe that it is a necessary quality.
Another necessary quality needed to be a hero is bravery. This is
more than likely the m .....

society, a group that still has religious beliefs and marriage, things no
longer part of the changed society, to compare and contrast today's
culture with his proposed futuristic culture.
But one theme that both Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451 use in
common is the theme of individual discovery by refusing to accept a
passive approach to life, and refusing to conform. In addition, the
refusal of various methods of escape from reality is shown to be a path to
discovery. In Brave New World, the main characters of Bernard Marx and the
"Sav .....

Number of words: 1667 - Number of pages: 7.... does not treat Jane like a human being and is constantly criticizing and punishing her.
