Thomas More's Ideal Society
Number of words: 713 - Number of pages: 3.... This would mean that whoever did not want to farm was forced to. That is slavery. What about all the other things that a community needs to survive? Are those needs going to be put on a hold until farming was finished? Will ill people have to wait for a doctor until he has spare time to help? It seems that farming to provide food for the community is Moore’s main concern. However, if he was really concerned about the people, his society should not have farming as a higher priority than medical care. I feel that instead of having everyone farming, there should be a certain number o .....

Catcher In The Rye 5
Number of words: 443 - Number of pages: 2.... don't act naturally and follow other
people's manners and grace. Holden didn't like phonies, he thought of them as if they
were trying to show off. He didn't like it when they showed off because it seemed so fake
and unnatural every time they would do so. "At the end of the first act we went out with
all the other jerks for a cigarette. What a deal that was. You never saw so many phonies
in all your life, everybody smoking their ears off and talking about the play so that
everybody could hear how sharp they were." (pg. 126) Throughout the book Holden
displays a lack of motivation for .....

Hamlet: Father And Sons
Number of words: 802 - Number of pages: 3.... an idol of his father. In Prince Hamlet's first soliloquy he described his father as an excellent king, a god-like figure and a loving husband. It is strange that the Prince did not convey information about being a loving father. It is left for us to infer that there must have been a special bond between father and son for the Prince to be so willing to carry out retribution against his father's murderer.
Prince Hamlet changed after the death of his father. He is grief stricken certainly, but also he pretends to be getting increasingly insane to divert suspicion from his real purpose .....

Number of words: 1053 - Number of pages: 4.... land to another farmer, because of lack of the last payment during their removal. This disreputable action she took, was caused by her racist thoughts that she had toward Japanese. This has been demonstrated out in her conversation with her husband, she said, "We’re not such paupers as to sell to Japs, are we? For new clothes? For a pouch of fancy pipe tobacco?" (Guterson 119). Because of her being racist, it had cost the land of the Miyamoto and raised tension between the two families and created a motive for Kabuo to commit murder to Etta’s son as for revenge and to .....

Huckleberry Finn - The Uniting Of Theme And Plot
Number of words: 1369 - Number of pages: 5.... 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 good place. Well, I couldn't see no advantage in going where she was going, so I made up my mind I woul .....

The Great Gatsby 3
Number of words: 976 - Number of pages: 4.... him use his imagination, so that in the end, the reader can decide if the Great Gatsby is truly 'great'. Fitzgerald allows the reader to incorporate the story into their own past and past relationships, ultimately putting the reader in Gatsby's shoes and seeing what the reader would do in the same situation. It raises a great debate; should people live their lives yearning for something in the past? Is it acceptable to live one's whole life on a past experience or memory hoping to reach back in time and pull the past to the present. Is it healthy?
In this case, Fitzgerald is saying no its .....

Richard III
Number of words: 1210 - Number of pages: 5.... thought's down to my soul" when he sees his brother approaching. He is unable to share his thought with his own family as he is plotting against them. Thus, we are given hints of his physical, social and spiritual isolation which is developed throughout the play. But despite these hints, he still refers to himself as part of the House of York, shown in the repeated use of "Our".
The concept of Richard's physical isolation is reinforced in his dealings with Anne in Act I scene ii. She calls him "thou lump of foul deformity" and "fouler toad" during their exchange. Despite these insults, she st .....

Theodore Seuss Geisel, Better
Number of words: 1171 - Number of pages: 5.... Over the course of the book, the weapons get more complicated and powerful until each side invents "the bitsy big-boy boomeroo," a very powerful bomb. Each side is ready to destroy the other when the books ends. These groups could represent the nuclear opponents of the time, mainly the United States and Russia. "In this book Dr. Seuss turns didactic and calls up many moral arguments adults make against nuclear proliferation." (Lystad 1) This book "ends without resolution of the issues" (Lystad 2) and leaves it up to the reader to decide his or her own beliefs on nuclear war. .....

In the early 1930s, Ellison won a scholarship to Alabama’s Tuskegee Institute, where he studied music until 1936(Busby 10). Later, to earn money for his education (after a mix-up regarding his scholarship), he traveled to New York, where he met Richard Wright and became involved in the Federal Writer’s Project.
