.... intelligence and wit, while exulted in a man, are threatening characteristics in a woman. In the kingdom, Clytaemnestra has been having an open affair with Aegisthus. The chorus, who acts as the voice of the common man, and therefore the voice of morality, condemn her for this affair even though it is common practice for men in ancient Greece to have many extramarital affairs themselves. In this way Aeschylus condones the double-standards thrust upon the women of the time, but he also, perhaps unwittingly, sets up Clytaemnestra as the antagonist of the plays. In breaking away from the traditional female role, she sets up the .....

.... to enter and the chaotic events that he is going to witness through Nellie's story telling. When Nelly begins to tell the story of the two neighbouring households, she describes Old Mr. Earnshaw setting out to Liverpool on a "fine summer morning" (p.34). Yet, when Old Mr. Earnshaw dies she relates that "A high wind blustered round the house, and roared in the chimney; it sounded wild and stormy" (p. 41). Emily Brontë often uses the weather to accentuate the personality traits and moods of the characters throughout the novel. The countryside's sometimes savage weather compares well to Heathcliff's temperament. Heathcliff disape .....

He had then realized that he is just a player in a game. In the end of the novel, the narrator sees that he is visible only to certain people. Nobody cares what he does, as long as he does what is expected. Towards the end of the novel, the narrator shows that he understands his status with the white people when he refuses to consent to sexual intercourse with a white woman. The narrator actually does find himself. In the prologue, he says "I myself, .....

.... “I’ve had a rough life……I mean I’ve been trough a lot. I’ve been close to some wonderful things……but close is as far as I go….sooner or later everything I think is worth having gets away from me in some way or other.” (P39-40) Frank does not have any clear justification for his actions. However, his defense is that after such a rough childhood, what else can be expected of him, other than evil. Frank does not comprehend why he does what he does. He has no rational explanation of why he shatters everything he works so hard to gain. Maybe Frank was just born evil. Although Frank has done wrong, he tries to redeem .....

.... feminine, effervescent youth makes Ethan feel like a "real man." Contrary to his characteristic passiveness, he defies Zeena in Mattie's defence, "You can't go, Matt! I won't let you! She's [Zeena's] always had her way, but I mean to have mine now -" (Wharton 123). To Ethan, Mattie is radiant and energetic. He sees possibilities in her beyond his trite life in Starkfield, something truly worth standing up for. Her energy and warmth excite him and allow him to escape from his lonely, monotonous life. While Zeena is visiting an out of town doctor, Ethan and Mattie, alone in the house, intensely feel her eerie presence. .....

.... people involved in their lives. Both Miss Havisham and Estella are prime examples of the impact one's environment can have on the individual. While the opposite is shown through Joe and his ability to maintain personal integrity despite his harrowing past. The shaping of Pip's character begins during his childhood years under the loving care and companionship of his brother-in-law Joe Gargery, and the strict rule of his sister Mrs. Joe. Dickens completely disassociates the world of Joe from the world of Mrs Joe, each having an adverse effect on the young child, Pip. The home is the world of Mrs. Joe, where Pip is 'raised by hand'. .....

.... character is the Parson. Chauncer depicts the Parson as a smart man who is into studying. He is one of the few people Chauncer portrays an a good manner.
