.... and takes the right course of action by making Pip really think about what he has done. A child like Pip does not see the consequences of his actions until he really thinks about the problems he has caused. Joe blatantly expresses his feelings to Pip and Pip becomes ashamed of his actions. Joe, however, did not do a very good job of being a parent in the first place for believing Pip’s outrageous story without question. Joe tries to be a good father figure but falls flat by not realizing when his child has done something wrong as in lying to him. Joe is rather gullible and can not allow himself to be outwitted so easily by his ch .....

.... desolate island located probably somewhere in the Pacific near the first atomic bomb detonation. This land was pure and basic; it was a Garden of Eden, that is, until man arrived. Upon the boys' arrival (a plane crash), a scar was left on the island. It was a plane, an offspring of man's creation, that disturbed nature's beauty. Golding continuously showed how the setting was terrorized by man. Man was not even there for one week and they have already destroyed half of an island that nature took years to create, and these men were mere children. Just think what real men have done to the entire world during the course of history. .....

.... 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 pleaded with Antonia's mother .....

.... is so awful cannot truly be forgotten. At the end of the story when Mrs. Hutchinson is chosen for the lottery, it is ironic that it does not upset her that she was chosen. She is upset because of the way she is chosen. She shows this by saying "It isn't fair, it isn't right" (316). The situation is extremely ironic to the story. The title of the story "The Lottery" is ironic. By reading the title of the story the reader may think that someone is going to win something. In actuality when the reader gets to the end of the story, he finds just the opposite to be true. Jackson shows every day as if it is any other summer day. .....

.... travel agent. After you have all your DJ’s confirmed, you go off and meet with graphic designers who will design you a flyer. And you need to pay him for the work and for the flyers to get printed. After the flyers are printed then people need to go out and promote the Rave at other places. Anywhere that has the right kind of people. This is not over yet. You need sound, there are a lot of people that do sound, and they bring cabinets of speakers the turn tables everything that’s needs to be brought are there. Usually they will ask you for a deposit. But if you know them it’s not a problem. After the sound is booked, you nee .....

.... living conditions were better at the Hensen plantation it turns out the condition was much worse at the Riley plantation. The slave cabins were far behind a row of trees in the back yard, behind the Big House so the Massa and Missy did not have to look at the pitiful slaves. Usually there would be some laughter and a lot of talk at the Hensen plantation but at the Riley plantation there was no laughter and almost no talk. Much like the slave cabins at the Hensen plantation they were lined up in “two long rows of tattered huts”2. The huts were low and ugly unlike the huts at the Hensen plantation. The slave cabin door was hangin .....

.... scene is shocking and nightmarish, but serves to set the tone for the surreal delivery of his speech. After the battle royal his mouth is bleeding and his eye is swollen. He's having a hard tInvisible Mane seeing the crowd. We can make symbolic connections to his Invisible Manpaired vision and how he does not see his circumstance very clearly, as well as the blood he must swallow to continue his speech. The white men ignore hInvisible Man and only occasionally ask hInvisible Man to repeat something he has said, until he stumbles over the words social "equality." The room becomes deadly quiet and, "The laughter hung smokelike .....

.... her child, and her own best self. She did it all in the name of sanctity, for true love, and she paid the price. Dimmesdale was changed by the affair in a way that “ [he] grew emaciated; his voice, though still rich and sweet had a [tone] of decay.” As a believing Puritan, Dimmesdale saw himself as “predestined” for damnation. Hawthorne explained how the poor man “kept silent by the very constitution of [his] nature.” Dimmesdale wanted to be with Hester, but he was weak. Hawthorne spoke about Dimmesdale’s bloody scourge in his closet, and how he beat himself with it. Hawthorne seemed .....

.... person and partly first person, and is also divided into three parts. In the first part the main character and his conflicts with the world he lives in are revealed. Winston Smith is a bureaucrat who works for the government by altering history at the Ministry of Truth. He begins to ponder the reason things are so bad and commits a terrible crime. In the second part, he falls in love with Julia, and is taken in by a man named O'Brien, a member of the anti-party society called the Brotherhood. O'Brien turns out to be a true member of The Inner Party. Winston and Julia are captured and hauled off to the Ministry of Love (Mi .....

.... were searching in different directions for their path" (Cooper, p. 5). Bewley states that this meeting is symbolic of losing one's way morally, and then attempting to find it again through different paths. Says Bewley, "when the two men emerge from the forest into the little clearing we are face to face with... two opposing moral visions of life which are embodied in these two woodsmen" (cited in Long, p. 121). Critic Donald Davie, however, disagrees. His contention is that the plot is poorly developed. "It does not hang together; has no internal logic; one incident does not rise out of another" (cited in Long, p. 121). .....
