Guy De Maupassants The Necklac
Number of words: 514 - Number of pages: 2.... in the beginning of the story but now was when I started to hate her. She had it pretty good. She had a husband that loved her and was willing to do anything to please her. Even if it meant giving up something he had been saving up for, a shotgun, just so she could feel like Cinderella for one night and get a dress that suited her needs. She was unable to stop at a dress though: she needed to have jewelry. It could't be just any jewelry either, it had to be a diamond necklace.
Mathilde was a success at the party, she was noticed and sought by all. She found happiness in vanity until she arri .....

Life After Death
Number of words: 834 - Number of pages: 4.... comparison between the poets, in terms of structure and technique, is that the meaning of their poems run much deeper then the specific words on a page. Even this can come as a contrast when looking at these three poems. “Home Burial,” by Frost is a fairly straightforward poem, written in dialogue, with the writer working as the narrator. The poem is about a married couple dealing with the recent death of their son, who the husband had to bury in their own backyard. It is a considerably long poem, which doesn’t require one to read between the lines. Where as “I felt a Funer .....

The Idea Of Freedom
Number of words: 401 - Number of pages: 2.... and then write a contemptible letter to
the President without a blink of an eye by officials? In other countries,
such actions could cause one's life to be lost by sun-up the next day.
This is the rationalization of First Amendment tree-huggers who advocate
any bend in the rules which would be otherwise a fair idea.
As far as fair ideas go, until several years ago in Russia,
luxurious living was a thing of dreams and stories for the average John
Doestovky, and then society got tired of the pigs at the top having all the
riches. Here, Americans enjoy luxury throughout all class levels .....

A Man For All Seasons
Number of words: 524 - Number of pages: 2.... that if he stayed alive, it would have been sufferable, living in jail for the rest of his life, no job and little sight of family. He did what he thought was right. “ I do no harm, I say none harm, I think none harm. And if this be not enough to keep a man alive, in good faith I long not to live”(pg. 97)
When More died it sent a message to the public that the Kin was wrong in what he was doing. As More died in front of a lot of people, it certainly showed to the public that it was honorable and he put his point across in the clear way. “….but because I would not bend to the m .....

Act One Of Othello
Number of words: 2467 - Number of pages: 9.... apparently arguing over money. Shakespeare immediately sets the mood of conflict for the remainder of the play, it is important because the reader at the outset is given a choice; who to believe and who is right. Shakespeare instantly sets about creating the mood of ambiguity which will result in the reader contemplating and analyzing the situation in hand. This will, according to Aristotle, create pleasure for the audience.
As with all Shakespeare’s plays, Othello is written (for the very vast majority) in a form of verse and with a definite rhythm. This helps the general flow of th .....

Is Brutus An Honorable Man
Number of words: 524 - Number of pages: 2.... is not what friendship is all about.
Brutus did not value the people around him. Along with ignoring his friends, he
killed his closest friend of all time. For most normal people, killing their best friend
would not even be an issue, no matter what they thought was best for their country. If
they thought something bad could be happening, they would talk to that friend and tell
them what they think and how it should be resolved. No real friend would jump to
conclusions and make such a drastic decision as killing that person. Brutus also did not
value his wife, Portia. He was neve .....

Heart Of Darkness
Number of words: 1399 - Number of pages: 6.... boat pulls up to the Outer Station, he sees a man-of-war shelling the continent, which is quickly clarified, by a pilgrim, to be a front against "a camp of natives - he called them enemies! - hidden out of sight somewhere" (Conrad 78) Marlow felt a "touch of insanity" in the whole concept of shelling the natives, who had done nothing to be considered enemies or criminals and had very likely fled the area a long time ago. Yet the Europeans feel that the natives are truly a threat and must be controlled. Further along, Marlow meets a pilgrim who is called the brick- .....

he will defy authorities even after he is captured and tortured,
trying to keep one last shred of personality intact.
b. If he's so heroic, why is he so foolhardy? It makes no sense
for him to create a permanent love-nest when he knows it will speed
his capture. "It was as though they were intentionally stepping nearer
to their graves," he thinks. A careful man would never open up to
O'Brien without knowing whether he is to be trusted. You can argue
that Winsto .....

being to come round by sea. I was dirty from my
journey; my pockets were stuff’d out with shirts
and stockings; I knew no Soul, nor where to look for
lodging. I was fatigu’dwith Traveling, Rowing and
Want of Rest. I was very hungry, and my whole stock

Account of my Rowing; but I insisted on their taking
