.... over again, and it will surely yield the same fruit according to its kind" - P347, Book III, Ch15. Dickens, who lived in England where there were many unjust punishments and immoral actions by high ranking officials, was basically saying that the things that fueled the revolution in France, the crushing of humanity and rapacious license and oppression, if used in a similar manner somewhere else would have the same result. In this case he was probably thinking of his native country of England, but in truth it could happen in any country that practiced the same methods that France d .....

.... in values and convictions we both hold. It is for all those reasons mentioned above that I enjoy the book so much and label it as one of my favorites. For those of you who have not had the opportunity to hold grasp of this book and read it, it is superficially, the story of a young man’s expulsion from school. However, if you study the story, it is so much more than that. Holden Caulfield, a teenager growing up in the 1950s in New York, has been expelled from prep school for poor achievement. In an attempt to deal with this he leaves school for a few days prior to the end of t .....

.... no freedoms to its citizens. They live in fear because they are afraid of having corrupt thoughts about the governments of Oceania, a crime punishable by death. Winston, the main character, is a man of 39 whom is not high in either intelligence or character, but is disgusted with the world in which he lives in. Winston represents Orwell’s view on totalitarianism. He works in the Ministry of Truth, which is a place where history and facts- significant or not are rewritten to reflect the party’s idealistic beliefs. They destroy the records of the past; and print up new revised editions, w .....

.... care for and live with in harmony. The land which they once owned was meticulously cared for and the lessons which they learned of respect for nature was passed down to their children for generations. Much of the land they once owned was stolen from them when the Europeans invaded. Another aspect which was described in this book was religion and the effects it had on the natives of Latin America. The Catholic church was forced upon many of the Indians when the European, mainly Spanish, ideologies were forced upon the Indians. The church claimed to want to help them to enrich thier liv .....

.... minister and Proctors immediate supervisor, which says “ there is either obedience or the church will burn like hell is burning.” “The church in theocratic Salem is identical with the state and the community and will surely crumble if unquestioning obedience falters in the least.” Proctor, on the other hand, “has come to regard his self as a king of fraud,” as long as he remains obedient to an authority which he cannot respect. In other words he believes that the cannot be his true self when he has to abide by lies and not by his morals. He thinks there .....

.... represents. When her family name is called, she pushes her husband, "Get up there, Bill." (561) In doing so, she acts rebelliously, ironically contradicting custom by reversing the accepted power relation between husbands and wives. In her name Hutchinson, Jackson alludes to the religious reformer Anne Hutchinson, who, because she was a woman preacher, was considered a threat to society and strict Puritan laws. She was banished from her society, as Tessie is stoned and eliminated. In this way, Jackson shows that rebellion of a place in society is repressed. In addition to the reinforcemen .....

.... more important to have intelligence and to know how and when to use it. Merlyn had a very interesting philosophy, which I agree with, he told Arthur "The way to learn it's by listening to the experts." This quote leads to another of the many experiences Arthur had, the one with the hawks. This one was only so that Arthur had a chance to see other's point of view and to see what these experts (the hawks) did different. What Merlyn tried to accomplish with these real life experiences was to show Arthur the bases of values and morals. Arthur was getting so used to learning that when he .....

.... belt with a snake-clasp that implies menace. Snakes are an important symbol that we will encounter again. Ralph then takes off his clothes which implies goodness and naturalness. He accepts the island as his home. The fat boy who follows Ralph is worried. As I mentioned before Piggy is an asthmatic, nearly blind without glasses, he sees his life easily threatened because of his weaknesses. He doesn't belong in a wild place. When Piggy asks Ralph his name, we realize that not all of the boys on the plane knew each other. Ralph is not polite enough to ask his name in return, but the fat boy tel .....

.... within Jack. The next significant encounter in Jack's progression is his first killing of a pig. There is a description of a great celebration. The boys chant "Kill the pig. Cut her throat. Spill her blood." It is clear from Golding's description of the revelry that followed the killing that the act of the hunt provided the boys with more than food. The action of killing another living thing gives them pleasure. The last stage in Jack's metamorphosis is demonstrated by the murder of the sow. Golding describes the killing almost as a rape. He says, "Jack was on top of the sow, stabbing .....

.... that unhappy marriage that Janie meets Jody Stark, who comes along with dreams of power, wealth, and happiness. " De day you puts yo' hand in mine, Ah wouldn't let de sun go down on us single. Ah'm a man wid principles. You ain't never knowed what it was like to be treated lak a lady and Ah wants to be de one tuh show yuh." (Pg.28) Janie is promised that she will be treated quite well. So naturally, she leaves Logan and sets out for a new town with Jody. This relationship can be classified as equal in some aspects. However, for the most part, this too becomes a marriage based on inequality. .....
