.... her up. However, it was not the same at the Bigelow's property. Each day felt like years, as Glenyse had no one to talk to. Mrs Bigelow never spoke to Glenyse unless it was to give her orders. Glenyse had very little contact with the Bigelow children and Mr Bigelow, the Mayor of Ridgeway, never spoke to Glenyse. She was their "dark slave" and was to do all their household chores. For a while Glenyse did not have anyone to talk to or to joke with. However, Glenyse did have a sense of humor and guts to pull her through the time. This was evident when Glenyse accidentally killed a turkey. .....

.... the protagonists and the guiding figures are the one in which the protagonist is truly guided and complimented by his best friend. The protagonist in one book is similar in nature to the one in the other book, i.e. Gene Foster from A Separate Peace and John Wheelwright from . For example, the protagonist is definitely innately good but lacks to know the very self of him. This translates into a very vulnerable and an uncertain character, who must learn from the events that occur around him. Gene is a noble name, and he with no doubt is a gentleman with great determination. He comes fr .....

.... royalty when he calls Cory "Clean favored, and imperially slim." The second and third stanzas go on in much the same way. In the second stanza, the narrator describes Cory's social standing. In the narrator's eye's, Cory continues to be the perfect, polite gentleman, as he was "always human when he talked.". Cory was certainly not the picture of a snobbish or rude man. Cory was also a very popular fellow, as he "fluttered pulses" with a simple "Good-morning", Cory was an impressive social figure indeed. However, the poem takes a sudden, dark twist in the last stanza. Robinson does this .....

.... in “Day of the Last Rock Fight” there is 1 suicide and 1 murder. The suicide in “Day of the Last Rock Fight” is due to the fact that the cops found that Peter murdered the bully. And in “Dead Poets Society” it was because of pressure from the family. The father wanted him to be something that he didn't want for himself. The similarity is that all of these deaths could have been prevented by listening to each other and talking to each other. And finally there were similarities and differences in the activities they were into. The two stories differ because in “Dead Poets Societ .....

.... would always do whatever she was told without hesitation, because she was fearful of being beaten. The first evidence comes from the opening line of the novel, You better not never tell nobody but God… (P.11). That is why all her letters open with Dear God, because she fears what will happen to her if she does tell anyone. And it is because of these men, that she has very little courage or ambition, for they took the fight or will out of her. One of the most important women that Celie meets in her life is Shug Avery. Shug Avery is not only a friend to Celie but also a lover. It is by being .....

.... paper. Then the piece of dirt starts moving, as he sees what he believes to be a dot on the paper but really to be a mite. The old man then starts to think about the value of life. The theme of the poem is that there is no such thing as an insignificant speck. Everything and everyone has a purpose for being here. This poem is filled with alliteration. Some examples I found are: cunning crept, tenderer-than-thou, and breathing blown (Silberner 98). Mind is repeated three times in the final stanza. Also there were two instances in which Frost used assonance room for and living mite. The rhyme .....

.... happy being without a husband. Now don’t get me wrong, she isn’t a mean person, she’s just really independent. Well that was until Benedick, a very handsome military man with an attitude equal to Beatrice’s, came along. They bickered back and forth and spoke constantly about how much they hated each other, and butted heads whenever possible. So, it was obvious to everyone around them that they were perfect for eachother. There was a little trickery and they ended up falling head over heals in love with one another. So, even though she wasn’t looking for a .....

.... by the sunshine or Nature. In fact "[the sunshine] runs away and hides itself, because it is afraid of something on [Hester's] bosom" (146), the Scarlet Letter, which represents Hester's acceptance of Puritan law and way of life. Therefore her sin doesn't invite the sympathy of Nature. This is why when she throws the letter on the ground "forth burst the sunshine, pouring a very flood into the obscure forest . . ."(162). Only then did Nature show its acceptance by flooding the forest with sunshine. The sympathy that Nature extends to Pearl is what makes her so different. Pearl has two per .....

.... It was one of the most disturbing novels I’ve read in a long time. It possesses an unnerving air of documentary reality. All the obstacles facing the characters were fairly easy for me to relate to. Less Than Zero is not a long book but it contains reflections upon the entire world. The images described of youth adrift, of neon towers, palm trees, black nights, parties, clubs, drugs and cars and sex will never leave me. This amazing story sounded extremely real and scary to the reader, me. I recommend it highly and will argue that it is the Catcher in the Rye for the MTV generation .....

.... of her new found "awakening" she can no longer truly serve to provide for their happiness. The only point that she makes clear in that statement is that she would give her life for her children, showing that she loves them but cannot define herself based on creating their happiness. Her actions resemble those of a child. Her awakening evolves into a selfish agenda, concerned only with her own happiness and disregarding all others. The culture portrayed in The Awakening put heavy emphasis upon responsibility and duty. Edna finds herself wanting to stray from her responsibilities and embrac .....
