.... she was being judged by everybody, and since humans are evil, than their response towards her were not be positive, but evil. A group of women were talking with each other, and deciding on a punishment for Hester: "'What do we talk of marks and brands, whether on the bodice of her gown, or flesh of her forehead,'" (p. 49). To which another replied "'This woman has brought shame upon us all, and ought to die'" (p. 49). It is a good thing they didn't have any political power. This shows how full of evil these human self appointed judges are, and they do not only judge Hester, they also judge judges' decision. Hawthorne co .....

.... Antonia. They become great friends and share numerous adventures. Cather uses brief, beautifully descriptive and nostalgic recollections of situations and feelings to increase the pain and sadness of the separations that she places throughout the book. An excellent example of this is the way Cather builds up to Mr. Shimerda's suicide. Mrs. Cather describes Antonia's love and strong bond with her father. Antonia talks of how much he loved the old country, how much he wanted to stay there and live among his friends. She describes the beautiful relationship of her father and a trombone player and how much her father had cried and .....

.... “ questionable apple of knowledge”. Here he compares Budd to Adam and Eve before they were coaxed by the serpent to take a bite of the apple of knowledge. It is in this way that Melville gives the reader the implication that Billy Budd is being used to represent goodness of the nature of man. To represent the evil in the theme “ good versus evil”, Melville introduces the reader to John Claggart. In this novella John Claggart shows to have unique characteristics all of his own. His vague background links him to Budd while his Intelligence links him to Captain Vere. His depraved nature however is unlike any other character .....

.... so keen, so aware of how living things must cease to live, have to fix? Dylan Thomas appears to be telling us that wise men fear that they have not given their wisdom to others appropriately. It seems that wise men worry that all the wisdom they have accumulated over the many years of their existence was of no matter. Thomas has an eloquent way of phrasing things, “Though wise men at their end know dark is right Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night” (Thomas ll. 1-6). To reiterate my point Thomas used the term of forked lightning this represents the wise men's words. Lightnin .....

.... the Christian Church. Dante’s punishment for the “arch heretics and those who followed them” was that they be “ensepulchered” and to have some tombs “heated more, some less.” Since the archheretics believed that everything died with the body and that there was no soul, Dante not only punishes them with the hot and crowded tombs, but he punishes them with their beliefs and lets them feel what it is like to die. This punishment by Dante is one in which he was more focused on inflicting a physical pain rather than a mental one. Although he uses various torturous practices in in order to .....

To begin with, Rousseau claimed that the entire population of savage man was happy and satisfied just by hunting everyday because that is what he loved.

He is basically saying that the savage man was at an advantage because even though he was smaller, weaker, and less a .....
