.... from her life, that when she died he felt no more sadness than if he had been told a stranger had died. Unfortunately, we don’t have the benefit of his mother’s memories of her affections towards her son. We only have one child’s point of view. In Beloved, Sethe also remembers seeing her mother only a few times. The difference between Sethe and Frederick Douglass is, Sethe talked of having a genuine affection for her mother. Sethe gets to play the roles of both child and mother. The audience gets to see her love for her own children and her distress of being separated from .....

.... father would beat Huck many times usually because he was drunk. This is not unusual for someone drunk to do if that person is a beater. "I used to be scared of him all the time, he tanned me so much." (Twain, p. 25) Besides him beating Huck, his father has put fear into Huck, which is sad, but is realistic. Besides beating Huck, he also scolded him for trying to get an education; he though Huck was trying to become smarter than his father, and he wouldn't have that. "You're educated, too, they say -- can read and write. You think you're better'n your father, now, don't you, because he ca .....

.... Thames, he is telling us in this second line that even a river which is a force of nature, is owned in London. When Blake says that he sees "marks of weakness, marks of woe" in "every face" he meets, he means that he can see how this commercialism is affecting everyone rich and poor. Yet, despite the divisions that the word charter'd suggests, the speaker contends that no one in London, neither rich or poor, escapes a pervasive sense of misery and entrapment. The speaker talks of how in "every cry of every man" he hears the misery. Blake is once again reminding us that this is affectin .....

.... of the story "Red Convertible", Henry is kind and very close to his broth, Lyman. One day, the army turns Henry into a Marine. Henry joins the Vietnam War and his enemies catch him. Later on, the war is solved by the government's mind. When he goes back his home, he is totally different from before. When he came home, though, Henry was very different, and I'll say this: the change was no good. You should hardly expect him to change for the better, I know. But he was quiet, so quiet, and never comfortable sitting still anywhere but always up and moving around. (P.86) And Henry becomes jumpy .....

.... been acquired through her “millions and millions of dollars” (38). Jay Cee has “brains, so her plug-ugly looks [don’t] seem to matter” (5). But, Philomena has money so nothing else matters. Mrs. Willard is portrayed as the ultimate wife and mother. We are given the impression that Mrs. Willard embodies sensibility. She is what every little girl is supposed to grow up to be. But Esther sees differently. Mrs. Willard represents the inevitable outcome of marriage and motherhood – to flatten out under the husband’s foot like a kitchen mat (80). The .....

.... makes provision for hanging many kinds of people, and gentlemen are not excluded.’ However we are also told that this man is a kind-hearted man and he is no vulgar assassin. Now we feel a touch of sympathy for the man, as we know he is either innocent or does not deserve such a penalty. By now Bierce’s tone is established; dry, ironic, exact, almost pedantic and - the voice of a satirist. I say this because his point of view is ironic and obscure. From the fourth paragraph we gather that the man is now even closer to death as the sergeant is using his own weight to keep the man fro .....

.... so much more. Into this book the world called his masterpiece, Mark Twain put his prime purpose, one that branched in all his writing: a plea for humanity, for the end of caste, and of its cruelties (Allen 260). Mark Twain, whose real name is Samuel Langhorne Clemens, was born in Florida, Missouri, in 1835. During his childhood he lived in Hannibal, Missouri, a Mississippi river port that was to become a large influence on his future writing. It was Twain’s nature to write about where he lived, and his nature to criticize it if he felt it necessary. As far his structure, Kaplan said, .....

.... to be king, then Duncan would never have had to die. Consequently, if Macbeth had not killed Duncan, this story would not have any murders in it at all. Macbeth is driven by greed and violence proven by William Hazlitt: Macbeth himself appears driven along by the violence of his fate like a vessel drifting before a storm: he reels to and fro like a drunken man; he staggers under the weight of his own purposes and the suggestions of others; he stands at bay with his situation; and from the superstitious awe and breathless suspense into which the communications of the Weird Sisters throw .....

.... appeared that they were the good, doing this for the natives and civilizing them but really they were wiping out the culture the family already had and could have made them feel unsure about who they are, where they beong, but on the other hand with the Millimurra/ Munday family, it made them stronger going though all the hardship. The character’s strength as in dealing with choices can conclude how he or she will feel or express emotions when he or she is faced with a problem. Language plays an immense part in determining a character’s emotion - the tone, content and how the character .....
