Pardoners Tale
Number of words: 676 - Number of pages: 3

.... As the youngest of the friend's leaves to go buy wine, the other two greedily plot to kill him so they can split the treasure only two ways.

The greed, which is evident in the character of the Pardoner, is also clearly seen in the tale.

.... harsh truth in a more open analysis, which makes the traditional themes of the horror genre native to it. In this caustic line is the motif of the bird in (and in other Hitchcock films; The Birds of course). Birds by nature are sharp-sighted and of secret predation. To the benefit of appearances, ironically the majority are slim and sleek.

Duality is allegorically explained within the character names .....

The Waste Land
Number of words: 1245 - Number of pages: 5
