Jamestown
Number of words: 2620 - Number of pages: 10

.... spring but because of financial troubles only 118 were finally able to set sail. The voyage was an unhappy one because White and his chief pilot, Simon Fernandes, spent a majority of the time quarreling. Fernandes was a suspected of wanting to steal the Spanish ships, but White interfered with his plans and the ship arrived safely at Hatarask Inlet on July 22, 1587. Fernandes was not finished yet, he left the settlers on the island and did not go on the Chesapeake Bay as the arrangements stated. This distraction was only a minor disaster compared to the ones to come. Summer was endi .....

For Whom The Bell Tolls
Number of words: 830 - Number of pages: 4

.... aspect is brought up since both sides are against one another. Here again, Hemingway doesn’t idealize either side, not referring to their political beliefs but to the fact that each side is very much the same. Both sides consist of sad, depressed fools who have been shipped off to war, content to live in peace and harmony with each other. It is here that Hemingway’s first satirical punch at war comes in, when he makes it clear that both sides are human, with no clear line separating the saints from the sinners. Another thing that is connected to the war concept is that both side .....

Looking For Alibrandi
Number of words: 761 - Number of pages: 3

.... in front of adults. She kept proving that she was immature by the way she acted with her parents, Sister Gregory, grandmother and her boyfriend. By the end of the novel Josephine reflects on the way she has acted throughout the year and why she has acted that way. The relationships within a family influence the way a young person grows up. Children who grow up without either parent will lack part of their growing up. For instance a male growing up without a father misses out on male companionship. Without a mother he will lack a part of his caring side. On the other hand a daughter .....

Canterbury Tales Chaunticleer
Number of words: 793 - Number of pages: 3

.... tells a story about an individual who had a vision in a dream and the dream came true. He may have been making all the stories up in order to win the argument with Pertelote, but, this seems unlikely because he does not take heed to his own advice and stay away from the fox that encounters him later. He is educated enough to know these supposed quotations but not intelligent enough to understand the real meaning of them. It is if he simply brings because they help him win the argument with his spouse and not because he actually believes what they say. Chaucer is .....

No Exit
Number of words: 1004 - Number of pages: 4

.... man acknowledges and accepts that he is a living being with a biological and social past. He can transcend beyond that to nothingness, the realm of the etre pour soi (the “being-for-itself”). At this point he is, according to Sartre, clearheaded and in good faith. Because he is acting in good faith, he is not pursuing a fundamental project in an attempt to circumvent the possibility of anguish. The outcome of this path of good faith is that man manifests his freedom authenticates and ultimately this freedom is real. Those who do not act clear headed will inevitably fall into .....

Langston Hughes - Poetry Analy
Number of words: 813 - Number of pages: 3

.... performed for a white audience. Hughes’ great appreciation for the black urban music style is obvious throughout the various rhythms, patterns, and unpredictable improvisations that mirror the chaotic and pulsating tempo of city life. Jazz and black oral influences, as well as social dichotomy are pervasive elements throughout Hughes’ poetry. Like nightclub entertainers, Hughes used the progression of Afro-American music (jazz, ragtime, swing, blues, and be-bop) in order to show the growth and change of a community in conflict, as is shown in “Subway Rush Hour.” This poem, .....

12 Angery Men Essay
Number of words: 538 - Number of pages: 2

.... type of task message Mr. Davis used was gathering information. This would be when he asked everyone at the table to give their opinion on why the boy was guilty or not. Although the task messages he used were the most obvious reasons why Mr. Davis was an effective communicator, another important point is that he did not allow petty physical factors into his judgment. The second most obvious way in which Mr. Davis was an effective communicator was how he kept physical factors out of his decisions. One physical factor that he kept out his decisions was time. Some of the jury members allowe .....

Catch 22
Number of words: 1147 - Number of pages: 5

.... have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of this clause of Catch-22 and let out a respectful whistle. "That's some catch, that Catch-22," he observed. "It's the best there is," Doc Daneeka agreed. One of the most important qualities of Catch-22 is its experimentation with the experience of time; by presenting a linear narrative in a mixed-up order, the novel both deprioritizes development toward an end as a feature of its plot and conveys the impression that, as Yossarian is afraid to confront a life that ends in d .....

Salt Garden
Number of words: 985 - Number of pages: 4

.... no control on the outcome. Munro's short story, Miles City Montana, displays a distinct loss of power when the narrator is confronted with the unendurable thought of not being capable of protecting her child from death. The story opens with the narrator's recollection of a childhood memory of a little boy drowning near her home. At the boy's funeral she also recalls thinking of how no one, not ever his father, could have saved him from his demise, yet it wasn't until later on in life that she realized what this had actually meant. The instant in her life that she came to this realization, .....

Catcher In The Rye 7
Number of words: 836 - Number of pages: 4

.... death, Allie’s death. Holden often talks to himself, like Allie was still right next to him, thinking he is having a conversation with Allie. This shows Holden has unresolved issues of Allie’s death, that he has not gotten over it yet. Holden never goes to Allie’s grave, to see his tombstone. Thinking that if he never goes to see him, Allie death would never have really taken place in Holden’s mind, kind of like hear no evil, see no evil. Holden watches Phoebe ride on the carousel, turning and turning on it, and thinks "so damn happy all of a sudden". "This recre .....
