.... when his faithful and devoted friend Patroclus is mercilessly and dishonorably cut down in combat, he puts aside his pride and chooses to temporarily forget about his previous feuds with Agamemnon that have, up until now, prevented him from participating in the war. He joins the fighting with a deadly and vengeful mindset that will likely play a major factor in the outcome of the war. Today, this lust for revenge might be considered a glaring character flaw. However, this passion for retribution undoubtedly conforms to the heroic code of Greek society. Meanwhile, Hector is full of indecisio .....

.... Victor upon looking back at his work. If there is another monster there will be twice the power and possibly twice the evil, which could hurt or kill his family.

Onlookers surround the dead body and seem to be looking for clues to what may eventually await them when it is their turn to pass onto another possible world. In stanza three the speaker is preparing for a journey into an afterlife that may lie ahead. Dickinson writes, “I willed my keepsakes, signed away what porti .....

.... fiction is a relatively new term. Novels were first categorized this way towards the close of the 1920's. This word was first utilized in short stories that appeared in the pulp magazines, of the era. The phrase "science fiction" was considered an enhancement of the term scientifiction.

.... by the other boys at the orphanage to request more gruel at dinner one night. After making this simple request, "the master (at the orphanage) aimed a blow at Oliver's head with the ladle; pinioned him in his arms; and shrieked aloud for the beadle."3 The whole beginning of Oliver Twist's story was created from memories which related to Charles Dickens' childhood in a blacking factory ( which was overshadowed by the Marshalsea Prison ).4 While working in the blacking factory, Dickens suffered tremendous humiliation. This humiliation is greatly expressed through Oliver's adventures at th .....

.... with one another because they run in separate address spaces. Operating system code and data in the subsystems is protected from applications because subsystems, too, reside in their own address spaces. The Windows NT Executive shares address space with running processes, but it's protected by the wall between kernel mode and user mode. It's impossible for an application to corrupt code or data stored in the Windows NT Executive because the processor notifies the operating system of or prevents invalid memory accesses before they occur. Ultimately, an operating system's reliability and res .....

.... foreshadowing the death of Agamemnon, and Clytaemestra’s conversion to the dark-side of hatred and revenge. Another commonly used significance of darkness is that of concealment. When a soldier wishes to hide his actions from an enemy, it is typically said that he will do so “under the cover of darkness.” Just as a soldier used darkness to hide his actions, so has the characters of Clytaemestra. Secretly while Agamemnon was away fighting in the Trojan War, Clytaemestra carried out an affair with Agamemnon’s sworn enemy, Aegisthus. Agamemnon knows nothing of thi .....

.... still speak a Celtic Language (Breton) today. The Angles were named from Engle, their land of origin. Their language was called Englisc, which gave us the word, English.

During the 7th and 8th Centuries, Northumbria's culture and language dominated Britain. This domination came to an end with the Viking coming in during the 9th Century, which also destroyed Mercia. Only Wessex remained .....

.... When Tituba entered the scene, Abigail made her move. She accused Tituba of making them do bad things such as drink blood, and why Betty was sick. Tituba, however, did not subject herself as a helpless victim of Abigail's sick game. Tituba twisted the lie aroun so it was for her benefit, if she confessed she would be forgiven. She saw her opportunity for a counter move and took it. Abigail had the fingers pointing at her and Betty again. Abigail made a dangerous turn. She and Betty accused Goody Good, Goody Osburn, Bridget Bishop, George Jacobs, Goody Howe, Martha Bellows, Goody Sibber, Al .....

.... and servants…by doing everything safe toward your love and honor.” In this passage MacBeth again proved his layalty and goodness to the king. This was a tribute of treating people well. Once Duncan appointed MacBeth the Thane of Cawdor, he said,"From hence to Iverness and bind us further to you." That quote showes that because MacBeth was so good to the king, the king was to attend a party in MacBeth's name, a great honor. Throughout the beginning, MacBeth was a good character inside and out. MacBeth listened to the evil witches and that changed him for the rest of the .....
