A Separate Peace - Phineas And Gene
Number of words: 2005 - Number of pages: 8.... His first impression of him was as a bully, therefore, we think that Gene is afraid of him, which would make him insecure. Another example of Gene's insecurity occurs just after Gene and Phineas meet. "That first day, standing in our comfortless room amid his clothes, he began to talk and I began to listen."(100) This quotation shows that Gene was too afraid to say what he wanted. He did not have enough courage even to interject when Phineas was talking. This shows that Gene was insecure about his ideas and point of view.
Throughout the story we also see Gene to be very envious of Phine .....

are typical of the modern, painless, friendly, and impersonal coercive

dominate them similar to how the torture and brutality of pre-1700th
century society sought to dominat .....

Essay Analyzing The Biographic
Number of words: 1630 - Number of pages: 6.... He is the narrator, “an undisguised invention of the play. He takes whatever license with dramatic convention as is convenient to his purposes” (1147).
“I am the narrator of the play, and also a character in it. The other characters are my mother, Amanda, my sister, Laura” (1147). Because Tom is the narrator, and the narrator is the one who tells the story, we can decide already that he stands for Tennessee Williams, who wrote the play and tells the story through Tom. Also for the same reason, Amanda is Williams’ mother Edwina Williams and Laura is his siste .....
