Lord Of The Flies: Idea Of God
Number of words: 948 - Number of pages: 4.... same
surface as the humans, but god still lived in heaven, which was thought of
as a tangible place in the sky, and still was thought to be in the shape of
a man. This idea was challenged by another Hebrew prophet, Jeremiah. He
was the first to convey the message that god was holy, apart from the world,
and did not meddle in mortals lives. This change was brought about by the

Big Brother: Who Is He And What Does He Want
Number of words: 756 - Number of pages: 3.... comes in. People are made to believe that they are always being watched by Big Brother, which they are. In every room of almost every building there is a Telescreen which allows Part members to see and hear anything that goes on in the area of the telescreen. Knowing that anything they say, think or do is being seen by the "Big Brother" people will began to believe and think what they are told is the truth, if they do not, they are tortured until they do. Big Brother is used, in my opinion, to scare the people of Oceania. He is seen as a very powerful person (even if he isn't real) .....

The Story Of My Life By Helen
Number of words: 635 - Number of pages: 3.... concepts it included as well. These precious edifications about the differences in a “mug” and “water” were only some of what would be many opportunities for Helen to develop senses and feelings that I believe she portrays helped her to begin to live.

To Kill A Mockingbird: Innocence To Experience
Number of words: 1393 - Number of pages: 6.... game. When Atticus tells Jem and Scout
to, "Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember
it's a sin to kill a mockingbird," he is referring to the notion that a
mockingbird is a harmless creature and does nothing but sing and bring
happiness to the world. Harper Lee takes the title for her novel from this
passage because the imagery of the mockingbird is comparable to the
characters of both Boo Radley and Tom Robinson. These two characters are
"harmless songbirds" who are sinfully destroyed. This statement also
definitely shows that the kids (Jem and Scout) have respe .....

He held expensive parties, owns a huge mansion, a Rolls Royce, two motor boats, aquaplanes, a swimming pool (ironically that he has never used it except the day he has died), and a flashy wardrobe including a pink suit. Gatsby's materialism is not something to praise abo .....

you go for us both. Truly. We both go in thee now. This I have promised
thee. Stand up. Thou art me now. Thou art all there will be of me.
Stand up." (Pg.462) By saying this Jordan reveals how man is never an
individual but instead is made up of all the influences, experiences, and
memories that we have shared with others.
Furthermore This change came upon Jordan as a consequence of
joining the war. Before the war had started he had no idea what it meant
