Number of words: 875 - Number of pages: 4.... leap because it defied the traditional code of ethics handed down from generation to generation.
Romeo and Juliet’s parents would never even think of relating to an enemy of the family never the less falling in love with one. Juliet is caught by love that blinds her reason.

avoidance of devices such as soliloquies in favor of more natural exposition, causally related scenes leading logically to a denouement, and the creation of individual behavior directly attibutable to the heredity or environment of the character. All external stage details were authentic to the specific and current environment; all costumes, dialogue, and settings were carefully c .....

Huck Finn
Number of words: 1336 - Number of pages: 5.... of society we see should make us question the world we live in, and only the journey down the river provides us with that chance. Throughout the book, we see the hypocrisy of society. The first character we come across with that trait is Miss Watson. Miss Watson constantly corrects Huck for his unacceptable behavior, but Huck doesn't understand why, "That is just the way with some people. They get down on a thing when they don't know nothing about it" (2). Later when Miss Watson tries to teach Huck about Heaven, he decides against trying to go there, "...she was going to live so as to go .....

The Scarlet Letter And The Cru
Number of words: 629 - Number of pages: 3.... that this woman is youthful and fair, and doubtless was strongly tempted to her fall; - and that, moreover, as is most likely, her husband may be at the bottom of the sea; - they have not been bold to put in force the extremity of our righteous law against her. The penalty thereof is death. But, in their great mercy and tenderness of heart, they have doomed Mistress Prynne to stand only a space of three hours on the platform of the pillory, and then thereafter, for the remainder of her natural life, to wear a mark of shame upon her bosom." Ch. 3
Even though they though that the officials' pu .....

Odysseus The Hero
Number of words: 314 - Number of pages: 2.... lost a few men, but also had a long miserable trip home.
Odysseus also had a weakness for the opposite sex. He enjoyed women. Circe and Calypso played big parts in showing Odysseus' weakness for women. He stayed with Circe for one year and with Calypso for seven years. It is amazing to think that a man of such prowess and bravery had such a weakness.
The biggest surprise when looking at Odysseus was the fact that he had so many weaknesses. Nobody would think that a man of such stature would have any weaknesses at all, yet many of them. Odysseus was a great man, but like many great men throu .....

Antonia couldn’t be any happier with the life she is living. She has become grizzled, lost many teeth, and has had to work hard in this new venture. One phrase that shows Antonia's love for the farmland is when she says; “There wasn’t a tree here when we first came.

Number of words: 1014 - Number of pages: 4.... and they stayed there for a while. While they were there a man by the name of Brigham Young joined them. He did so many things for the Mormons that they said he was one of the Twelve Apostles. Then later he became the president of the Twelve.

Here Joseph Smith, the president of the Mormon Church, was killed; and a Mormon named Rigdon was made the president of the Mormon Church. Then after a little .....
