Their was a new feeling of spirituality. People were seeking eastern concepts of nirvana, transcendentalism and being one with nature. People wanted to experience life, not study it. They seeked extreme emotions, whether they were good or bad. Marry Shelly used all of these philosophies of the Romantic Period in writing, Frankenstien.

.... moral sin of creating another monster he may be rid of both monsters forever. "With the companion you bestow I will quit the neighbourhood of man,"(pg 142) promises the morally corrupt monster to the doctor upon the completion of his partner. When the doctor, if and when he, finished his first creation's mate there is a chance that the monsters will not keep their promise and stay in Europe envoking fear into townfolk. The good doctor, trying to act morally, destroys the monster for the good of the world. The monsters can potentially take over whatever they please. "A race of devils would be propegated,"(pg. 163) thinks Frankenste .....

.... what she wants, she takes Nicholas because she wants to, just as she ignores Absalon because she wants to. Lines 3290-5 of the Miller's Tale show Alison's blatant disrespect for her marriage to "Old John" and her planned deceit: That she hir love hym graunted atte laste, And swoor hir ooth, by seint Thomas of Kent That she wol been at his comandement, Whan that she may hir leyser wel espie. "Myn housbonde is so ful of jalousie That but ye wayte wel and been privee..." On the contrary, Alison's husband loved her more than his own life, although he felt foolish for marrying her since she was so young and skittish. This .....

.... for many years, but the domestic norms forced her to marry Edgar Linton because he was an acceptable suitor. Although she loved Heathcliff, he still remained an unattainable husband because he did not live up to the domestic standards of what a husband should be. He lacked a family background, wealth, and an ideal appearance that led Catherine to realize that “it would degrade [her] to marry Heathcliff” (Bronte 80). She was aware of the domestic norms, but it upset her because her love always remained true to Heathcliff, regardless of what he lacked. It seemed that everything Heathcliff lacked, Edgar Linton had by .....

.... myself from doing seven years ago, come hither now, and twine thy strength about me! Thy strength, Hester; but let it be guided by the will which God hath granted me! This wretched and wronged old man is opposing it with all his might!- with all his own might, and the fiend’s! Come, Hester, come! Support me up yonder scaffold!”’(p.235) Dimmesdale also felt guilt and pain about not admitting the sin that he is Pearl’s father. He was afraid that Pearl would not like him because he had not accepted her as his child. “Dost thou thinkest the child will be glad to know me?” (p.193) “So thou thinkest the child .....

.... and expression of individuality. Jane Eyre strongly adheres to the Victorian morality which was dominated by the Anglican party of the Church of England in which passion and emotion were kept concealed. Jane's instinct for asserting herself was stifled at an early age and could only be expressed through defiance. The defiant declaration of independence from Mrs. Reed , “You are deceitful”,(v.i.37) gives Jane the power of freedom and opens up a life of “unhoped-for liberty”,(v.i.37). Through the preceding years Jane develops into a highly educated, well spoken and strong willed woman . She is taught to be p .....

.... for Holden. Afterwards, although Holden was somewhat offended by the actions, he did not seem to care about his dripping nose. He went directly over to Ackley’s room, not even stopping to wipe up his nose. He also did not seem to care about the overall fight, because he talked of it like it meant nothing to him. “I had a little goddam tiff with Stradlater,” he explains to Ackley. “Do you feel like playing a little Canasta?” This quick forgetting shows that the fight had little affect on Holden, and that his injury meant little to him. While Holden is in the Edmont Hotel, the elevator man men .....

.... that Toohey new what he was talking about on all subjects. His plan to manipulate the public and gather them as a whole was directly countered with every move that Howard made. One of these major moves was the building of the Stoddard Temple. With the temple, Roark had the freedom to build whatsoever he choose. This gave him a medium to express his viewpoint without having any restrictions. After the delayed unveiling of the temple, it was condemned by the public. At the head of this group was no other than Toohey. He wrote articles in the newspaper on how the temple in no way represented the human spirit. The temple allow .....

.... the day he commits the crime. In the former place he leaves money on the windowsill, while in the latter he takes money away. In both cases, however, the rooms are hot, and a feeling of an uncomfortable and unfriendly place is drawn in the reader's mind. Neither Raskolnikov's narrow room, Sonya's cheap apartment or Profiry's office, where the latter hints at the airlessness of the room and asks whether he shall “open a window” (pg. 404), seem very inviting either. However, these are the places where Raskolnikov spends most of his time talking to people. Later though, he himself observes, "…low ceilings and cramped rooms c .....
