Swift's "A Modest Proposal"
Number of words: 1495 - Number of pages: 6

.... another human being. Therefore, before an analyzation can continue, one has to make the assumption that this is strictly a fictional work and Swift had no intention of pursuing his proposal any further. One of the other voices that is present throughout the entire story is that of sarcasm. In order to understand this further, a reader has to comprehend that Swift, becoming infamous after Gullivers Travels, was a member of the upper-class. Right from the first paragraph Swift attempts to fool his readers by the sarcasm of the dreary scene that Swift presents. For example, he mentions that it .....

Pride And Prejudice - Characters
Number of words: 874 - Number of pages: 4

.... that she is wrong after she read Darcy’s letter of explanation and said: "But vanity, not love, has been my folly." Through this realisation, we see that Elizabeth does not have the stereotypical nature of the majority of the people in her society, who, in contrast are unable to recognise their own faults. Vastly contrasted to Elizabeth, we have the comical Mr.Collins, who lacks the self-reflection and self-awareness that is evident in Elizabeth. One trait Mr. Collins surely portrays is that of self-importance. It never occurred to him that Elizabeth would refuse his marr .....

Athol Fugards Master Harold...
Number of words: 1019 - Number of pages: 4

.... to Hally that collisions do not take place at the championships: "And it's beautiful because that is what we want life to be." Sam then goes on to illustrate the real-life scenario on a personal level, explaining interpersonal disagreements as collisions on the ballroom floor, such as collisions among Sam, Willie, Hally, his mother and his father. Expanding this metaphor to the international level, Sam proceeds to talk about how America "bumps" into Russia, and about England "bumping" into India. Making sure not to deny the obvious, it would be wise to assume that Fugard intended to addr .....

.... full potential. This inadequacy is stressed throughout Clay and A Little Cloud and is emphasized by Maria’s and Little Chandler’s very childlike appearances and mannerisms. Maria is described as a “very, very small person” (Clay, pg. 87) as Little Chandler “gave one the idea of being a little man.” (Cloud, pg. 60) Little Chandler’s “frame was fragile...his voice was quiet...his hands were white and small” (Cloud, pg. 60) and he had a row of “childish white teeth” (Cloud, pg. 60) also giving him an adolescent appearance. .....

.... enough rest to make his legs feel better. The hustle and bustle of trying to catch a long subway ride home was almost unbearable. As Johnson’s character develops throughout this short story, some key events push him to his limit and cause him to lose control. First, an incident with his white female boss, his so-called "forelady", in which she called him a "nigger". Second, Johnson is standing in line for a cup of coffee. As soon as he is at the coffee urn to receive a cup of coffee the white waitress says, "No more coffee for awhile." Third, Johnson arr .....

To Kill A Mockingbird 5
Number of words: 717 - Number of pages: 3

.... as strong and opinionated yet innocent and full of questions. This method of literature makes the tale more personal and it almost seems as though you are actually there. Utilizing the first person narrative writing style is a unique way to appeal readers. Another important writing style that informs the reader and giving them a vivid picture of what is actually happening is detailed description. Harper Lee realistically describes everything from characters to setting: Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired old town when I first knew it. In rainy weather the streets turned to red slop .....

Anthony Burgesss View That A L
Number of words: 2212 - Number of pages: 9

.... all that Alex holds dear and builds him up with a new artificial conscience. This part of the novel "presents the reader with a new, reformed Alex, an Alex without free will or freedom of choice, an Alex who has become a victim" Burgess considers this lack of freedom to be spiritually murderous and terribly wrong. Burgess knows that it is better to choose to be evil, than to be forced to be good. Alex is tormented by his new state of oppression. He is incapable of making any choice; he must always do what is good. Alex is then taken under the wing of a writer who is fighting the oppressive go .....

.... are also many other bonds formed in life that show great love and guidance. One of the most emphasized in the Odyssey is the father - son relationship. These relationships clearly support the issue of love in the Odyssey. The father - son relationship between Odysseus and Telemachos is a little awkward because they both never really got to know each other but they still care for each other’s well being. When Odysseus hears of all the suitors devouring Telemachos’s future fortune and mistreating him, he wants to return and revenge the misuse of his family and property. Odysseus, li .....

.... will wear ugly masks. If their intelligence was above normal, like George Bergeron, they will wear a radio on their ear tuned to a Government transmitter. The transmitter will send out noises that will scattered their thoughts and will keep them from taking advantage of their brains. If they were not heavy enough they had to wear handicap bags full of birdshot, and this is the case of the ballerinas. They were required by law to wear them at all times. The kind of society presented in this story where everybody is equal and there is no competition, can be loosely related to the society we .....
