.... "The calls were in different tones, evidently proceeding from two men who had lost their way, and were searching in different directions for their path" (Cooper, p. 5). Bewley states that this meeting is symbolic of losing one's way morally, and then attempting to find it again through different paths. Says Bewley, "when the two men emerge from the forest into the little clearing we are face to face with... two opposing moral visions of life which are embodied in these two woodsmen" (cited in Long, p. 121). Critic Donald Davie, however, disagrees. His contention is that the plot is .....

.... there was a black stream in Mirkwood that made he who drank out of it suddenly very drowsy and forgetful of previous events. All of these examples of happenings and objects found in Middle Earth are physically impossible in a world such as ours. Several of the organisms in the book are not known to exist on Earth.

.... flight into the upper air.”(Hawthorne, 111) In the first passage Hawthorne uses nature to describe Hester’s sin and the second passage uses nature to describe Pearl’s appearance as wild and magical. The forest becomes Hawthorne‘s tool to describe the interlude between Dimmesdale and Hester. The long passage describes the actions between Hester and Dimmesdale in one of their most woeful times. The passage is often referred to as one with a sexual nature, though this is not clear in Hawthorne’s words. Hawthorne’s words can accurately be referred to as very sensuous and passionate .....

This intrigued Fortunato’s senses because Montresor knew that Fortunato “prided himself in the connoisseurship of wine”.

To push this further, Montresor goes on to say that, “. . .I am on my way to Luchresi. If any has a critical turn it is he.”, and this .....

Captain Vere instinctively disliked Claggert, a man who, for his own reasons, falsely accuses Billy Budd of plotting a mutiny. While meeting toget .....
