.... aproach to life. Obviously, death is still inevitable, but logically, the future should be altered with each decision.

.... hatred towards Blacks. In Columbia, Pennsylvania 1834, skilled workers went on riots hysterically fueled by the threat of inter-racial sex.

She obviously would never have been there had her parents resisted their love for each other. The second scene occurs .....

.... in order to emphasize the need to reform their role in society. Definite characteristics of the women's subordinate role in a relationship are emphasized through Nora's contradicting actions. Her infatuation with luxuries such as expensive Christmas gifts contradicts her resourcefulness in scrounging and buying cheap clothing; her defiance of Torvald by eating forbidden Macaroons contradicts the submission of her opinions, including the decision of which dance outfit to wear, to her husband; and Nora's flirtatious nature contradicts her devotion to her husband. These occurrences emphasize the facets of a relationship in .....

Gatsby is called great, which you can call him great by virtue of his ability to commit himself to his aspirations, but at the same time Gatsby himself is a liar, adulterer, a criminal, and someone the narrator, Nick Carraway, has only scorn for. So, as time rolls on in The Great Gatsby , Gatsby and his aspirations for realizing the so-called "American Dream" seem to drift further and further apar .....

.... beginning of the novel before he begins his journey on the river. The character of Huck can be seen as subdued in the beginning of the novel.
