.... a monster eat your friends, and then come after you. “Forward Grendel came, stepping nearer. Then he reached for Beowulf. Beowulf grasped his arm and sat up. The criminal knew he had not met in this middle-earth another with such a grip”(ch. 4). At this point Grendel was afraid of who this man was. Just the courage not to run away, but to fight the beast, Beowulf proved himself to be a courageous man. Another trait that comes with courage is being noble. To be noble, one has to take risks on his own behalf to save the suffrage of others, because he wants to. Beowulf had killed many mons .....

.... short story Rope will be discussed and the fact will be proved that an insignificant incident can lead to very serious violence and various kinds of tensions between a married couple. In addition the tension comes into being through what is not said that is through repressed feelings. I will also speak about the fact how persons through mental violence come back to the 'original' situation between two lovers. To a situation where tension must be explained as love tension but where there are many things not spoken about and not settled. Alice Munro's story The Time of Death tells about very s .....

.... the same ways, but they are alike ultimately in that they both know what they lack and are aware of what they don't know. This paper will make an attempt to explain the statement by further exploring the speech of Diotima as well as looking into the speech of Socrates in the Apology. In order to answer the question of how the philosopher in Socratic ignorance is like the true lover, the terms that will be used need to be defined. For the purpose of this paper Socratic ignorance will be understood as knowing what one does not know or lack. Furthermore, the true lover will be defined as .....

.... trying to accomplish it, but not finding it to be within realistic reach. Gatsby is a noble man whose vision is fouled by his dream because he remains in a wonder at Daisy's presence throughout the novel. The morality of Dan Cody, Gatsby's role model, and the superficial people who flock to Gatsby's parties contribute to Gatsby's downfall.

Gatsby became corrupted because his main goal was to have Daisy, at all costs. Gatsby sacrificed his own soul in order to please th .....

.... showed to her. Yet, Browning leads us to believe that she equated this intimate contact with something as simple as the sun setting, “The dropping of the daylight in the West.” In the following passage the reader is given the first glimpse of what probably led the Duke to such a violent act: She thanked men -- good! but thanked Somehow -- I know not how -- as if she ranked My gift of a nine-hundred-years-old name With anybody's gift. The Duke, it appears, was jealous of the attention that she gave to others. Browning tells us much about the type of person the Duke was in t .....

.... In the next passage, in which the sergeant says, "Which smok'd with bloody execution"(Act 1 Sc 2 line 18), he is referring to Macbeth's braveness in which his sword is covered in the hot blood of the enemy. Blood is used in these passages to identify honor and courage, it separates the good from the bad, and it also gives the reader a view of how the shedding of blood will be used often to identify certain characteristics. After these few references to honor, the symbol of blood changes to show a theme of treachery and treason. Lady Macbeth starts this off when she asks the spirits to "make .....

.... each character had their own characteristics and personality. There was something special about each character in the book. Each of them had their strong points and weak points for example Grant was always running away from his problems. There were a lot of things in his life that he could not handle and he just wanted to run away. He didn’t know what to do about Jefferson at first and wondered why he had to teach him. He didn’t really know how to handle his job as teacher in the Quarter. He couldn’t make his mind up about God so he just decided to leave it alone. Aunt Emma was .....
