We know Iago, is an outsider because of Cassio, when he speaks of Iago's kindness. " I never knew/ A Florentine more kind and honest."(III,i,39-40) A possible reason for Iago's severe actions against Othello in Cyprus was because he was an outsider and did not feel like he belonged. He may have felt that he had no reason to fight for Venice. (A. Kavanagh) Iago can be compared to a young child who is new in town and feels left out.

Number of words: 1136 - Number of pages: 5.... old pawnbroker stems from a theory he was developing. It was probable that during his studies at the university he was aquatinted with the popular philosophies of two German thinkers of the time.
One of these philosophers is George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, who had formulated a conception of an exceptional individual he called a “superman”. Hegel’s superman exists for good purposes. He stands above and beyond the ordinary man and works for the good of all men. The most controversial part of this superman theory that Raskolnikov obviously adopts is the Machiavellian b .....

Number of words: 929 - Number of pages: 4.... mere thought of corruption existed as a tool for possible future use. He married, not because of love, but because he felt it would be an asset to him. This lack of self value is an example of ignorance that produces a person with no meaning in life.

Not Fade Away
Number of words: 828 - Number of pages: 4.... a little more; and the ghost's passion for having a good time added for interesting events and conversations in the book. Not only did these things make him feel good, but there was significance as well. When not listening to records on the record player that Donna gave him, George was listening to one of three radio stations, KRZY, KROM, or KRZE. The two stations KRZY, and KRZE obviously represent "crazy," which George was, "Hey you're my ghost,--you've got to be crazy too"(254). The other station, KROM, represents "to roam," and roam is what George did in the Big Bopper's Cadillac El .....

Don Quxiote
Number of words: 419 - Number of pages: 2.... and video games. Theorists and psychologists say that the harsh and abrasive nature of movies like the Matrix and Rambo are absorbed into the maturing mind of adolescence and are seen as fact. As is the case in Don Quixote where our chivalric hero takes arms after reading one to many romance novels. Every one sees the irony of Don Quixote, and enjoys it in its more obvious forms. This absurd old gentleman, who tries to put his antiquated ideas into action in a busy, selfish, prosy world, is a figure of fun even to the meanest intelligence. But, with more thought, there comes a check to our fr .....

on a door that turns to let in life
From lines 4 to 10, we can assume that we are reading of a child who is terrorized of the grownups that live with him; perhaps he is an abused child:
on two feet standing,
walking, talking,
wearing dress or trousers,
maybe drunk or maybe sober,
maybe smiling, laughing, happy,
maybe tangled in the terror
of a yesterday past grandpa
Lines 11 to 15 reinforce the terror this child is feeling and carrying with him. It is apparent that the child is experiencing some kind of abuse, either mental or physical:
when the door fro .....

414-16 House vote and a 91-5 Senate vote.2 It seems now that the wide bill might not be what it cracked up to be, as it
stands now, anyone who might upload James Joyce’s Ulysses could be placed in jail for two years and have up to a $250,000
fine.3 Representatives of on-line services industries were concerned about the bill, and feared they could be held criminally
responsible for Internet conversations.4

Anthem Essay
Number of words: 640 - Number of pages: 3.... True pleasures of life are not allowed. Since they do not see personal benefits and fulfillment from their work, they lack enthusiasm and personal initiative. It is as though everybody has been brainwashed to one collective way. The people consider themselves as one body. Though collectivisim may have certain benefits, in Anthem it is taken to a dangerous extreme. Their collective society has nearly wiped out any traces of the individual. For example thoughts or opinions that are different from your brother are the root of evil. People are executed for referring to themselves singular .....

actually think in order to survive. This, to her, implies that it is
RIGHT for man to think. The good is that which is useful to and promotes
life. The life in question is ones own life. However, one doesn't have

Number of words: 770 - Number of pages: 3.... presented “feet first” as in a ground burial. In selecting aspects of
a traditional burial service, Shaw's mood is revealed as ambivalent toward
cremation by imposing recalled fragments of ground burial for contrast.
Strangely fascinated, he begins to wonder exactly what happens when one is
cremated. This mood of awe is dramatized as he encounters several doors to
observe in his chronological investigation. He sees “a door opened in the
wall,” and follows the coffin as it “passed out through it and vanished as
it closed,” but this is not “the door of the furnace.” H .....
