.... the book's nearly 500 pages. However, while some may complain Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee is boring or text-book-like, I believe the opposite is actually true. Generally, very little is known about this terrible genocide and Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee is a wonderful and interesting learning tool.

It pertains to all of the trouble Gatsby causes as he tries to win Daisy back. The past is represented by the clock and how Gatsby wants to repeat it with Daisy. (Eble, pg. 963) This quote foreshadows to the end .....

.... indeed, because she is physically there, but her thoughts and feeling are elsewhere. Montag will not turn on the lights in the bedroom and will not open the window to let in outside light, even though he feels as if he cannot breathe in the room with the windows closed. Mildred suffers from a hidden melancholy which she cannot consciously accept and which leads to her overdose on sleeping pills without knowing she is doing it; this same inner pain which manifests itself in unconscious acts of self-distruction affects much of the population of this world. One late night Mildred gets up .....

.... Daisy is like, she’s like... money”(chapter 8). My mom told me that when you put a daisy in a vase with water, it will shrivel up and die. That is just like Daisy’s character. She seems so sweet and good, but as times progresses you find out that she is just a selfish,and devoted to only being with the person who has money. Jordan Baker’s name is very symbolic. Her name combines two automobile makes. The sporty Jordan and the conservative Baker electric. The car is a representation of the persons image.

.... philosophy of the utopian society to show how very far short of being perfect our culture falls. He uses it to contrast the experiences that Candide had throughout his journeys. Candide's observance of the horrors of war, devesting earthquakes, the Inquisition in Portugal, and tyranny are there to represent real world dilemmas, while Eldorado represents an oasis of perfection in the real world. Eldorado is a heaven on Earth and something unattainable by the society of Voltaire's day. It can be argued though that because everyone is so wealthy and so happy, there would be absolutely no div .....

.... shows great compassion despite his appalling appearance. For instance, he demonstrates his love for others during his time spent observing Felix and Agatha while in the village. He wishes “to return to the cottagers, whose story excited in [him] such various feelings of indignation, delight, and wonder, but which all terminated in additional love and reverence for [his] protectors…” (106) Even though the monster had never actually met the De Lacey family, his ability to feel compassion is proven through his love of them only for their wonderful hearts and kind actions .....

.... a single man tempted into the depths of the hormonal world. This world, however, is a place where the society treats sexuality with ill grace. But his problem is enormously complicated by the fact of Hester's marriage (for him no technicality), and by his own image of himself as a cleric devoted to higher things. Unlike other young men, Dimmesdale cannot accept his loss of innocence and go on from there. He must struggle futilely to get back to where he was. Torn between the desire to confess and atone the cowardice which holds him back, Dimmesdale goes slightly mad. He takes up some m .....
