Lyrical Analysis Of The End
Number of words: 716 - Number of pages: 3.... done with "The End", in terms of the rhythmic and melodic variation backing a complex story line. It builds to an effect of mood rather than a sequence of events. Morrison's masterpiece was almost pure poetry, which probably remains the single most astounding track the doors ever recorded.
Jim Morrison uses words as much for their emotive effect as their meaning. The song suggests rather than states a mind filled with fears of sex, violence and death. Its the imagery more than the meaning of the words themselves that gets the message across. The imagery is terrifying-"the snake is long" an .....

Beloved: Sethe And Her Daughter
Number of words: 1468 - Number of pages: 6.... fact that Sethe's act is
irrational can easily be decided upon. Does Sethe kill her baby girl
because she wants to save the baby from slavery or does Sethe end her
daughter's life because of a selfish refusal to reenter a life of slavery?
It can be said that she is a woman who chooses to love her children
and not herself. Sethe kills her baby because her children are the only
good and pure part of who she is and must be protected from the cruelty and
the "dirtiness" of slavery(Morrison 251). In this respect, her act is that
of love for her children. The selfishness of Sethe's act lies in her .....

Archetypes In A Rose For Emily
Number of words: 406 - Number of pages: 2.... is evident in this passage, “We remembered all
the young men her father had driven away, and we knew that with nothing left,
she would have to cling to that which had robbed her, as people will” (279).
Her father robs her from many of life's necessities. She misses out on having
friends, being a normal “woman,” and her ability to be happy. Emily is not able
to live a normal life which she indirectly blames on her father. Emily is so
used to having her father be there for her, she figures that by keeping his body
he can still be part of her life.

lack of trust in her. In addition, after departing his wife, Goodman Brown
states to the mysterious man he meets in the forest, that "Faith kept [him]
back awhile." This means that although both his wife, Faith, and his own
faith delay him, they cannot stop him and thus aren't more important than
committing this deed.
Furthermore, there is no evidence of his trust for her in the
marriage. Immediately after witnessing a pink ribbon fluttering down onto
the branch of a tree, Young Goodman Brown cries out, " my Faith is gone!"
