.... Gene of this idea as well. The war doesn’t hit any of them until Leper, the first to enlist, goes to war and comes back a complete mess.

These young boys are separate from the reality of the world while they continue their studies just as they had always done, with the only difference being an extra school session in the summer. They have no concept of the danger many people are facing. At such a young age, the war seems so distant and unreal, maybe even .....

Heart Of Darkness: Ignorance And Racism
Number of words: 1003 - Number of pages: 4

.... is portrayed in Conrad's book, but one must acknowledge that back in the eighteen hundreds society conformed to it. Conrad probably would have been criticized as being soft hearted rather than a racist back in his time. Conrad constantly referred to the natives, in his book, as black savages, niggers, brutes, and "them", displaying ignorance toward the African history and racism towards the African people. Conrad wrote, "Black figures strolled out listlessly... the beaten nigger groaned somewhere" (Conrad 28). "They passed me with six inches, without a glance, with the complete, deathlike .....

Symbolism In Hopkin's "The Windhover"
Number of words: 318 - Number of pages: 2

.... as an individual. In the second part of the poem, the symbol of the windhover gives way to the figure of Christ. Yet Christ is not symbolized through traditional symbols, but in clay and coal. In this Christ is shown to be a component of a physical or material world. The flame from the windhover indicates self-sacrifice under stress. It is interesting that Hopkins puts AND in capitals and the resulting flame is described as a billion times lovelier than the windhovers image. Maybe the AND expresses the poets surprise that the spendor of self-sacrifice should be greater than the wind .....

Imagination In Morte D' Arthur
Number of words: 499 - Number of pages: 2

.... Mordred and his. One of the King's soldiers notices a snake about to bite him, and he draws his sword to slay it. All that Mordred's men see is the blade being drawn, and a battle immediately ensues. Once again, the reader is told more than the characters. The only thing keeping the reader a part of the story is the vivid descriptions given of the nightmarish world of Arthur's dream, and the smoking, bloody battlefield of a war that wasn't meant to happen. Malory also makes use of drama in his portrayal of the double-death scene, again with Arthur and Mordred. When he describes Mordred' .....

Yet, this is not the only explanation. The incest of the family is a theme throughout the novel, and is a significant factor in the solitude of this family. If a family rarely turns to others to branch out, it eventually becomes completely turned in upon itse .....

.... to look at every hair, muscle and movement of an object to find out everything about it. Science is also about adding on to what already exists; this was a problem. When Dr. Frankenstein decided to introduce a new being into the world, he didn't have to consult anyone, answer any questions or think into the future. With no monitoring, one scientist not only caused four unwarranted deaths, he endangered the lives of many more.
