.... women are more settle when men are watching over them. Under their pressure, they don't dare to rebel against them. Her wife sees images moving around on the dark side. That brings up a big contradicting point comparing this to our present society. Back then, woman does not have much freedom. They are under man's hands. Secretly they tired to struggle through this strangle. But they failed after all. My favorite passage of this story is on page 163. The detailed description that the wife describes really draws much attention to me. It talks about some details that the wife finds looking at the wallpaper. And one in .....

.... with a clear liquid. Jonas winced sympathetically. He had forgotten that newchildren had to get shots. He hated shots himself, though he knew they were necessary. To his surprise, his father began very carefully to direct the needle into the top of the newchild’s forehead, puncturing the place where the fragile skin pulsed. The newborn squirmed and wailed faintly “Why’s he-“ “Shhh,” said sharply. His father was talking, and Jonas realized that he was hearing the answer to the question he had started to ask. Still in the special voice, his father was saying, “I know, I know. It hurts, little guy. But I have to use .....

.... The brainwashing in the book might be a little exaggerated but it is still the same concept. Yet another example is how people are tagged with numbers. People today are identified by a social security number same as in 1984. Many of Orwells predictions became true but many didn't. Despite the truths, there were many untruths prevalent in 1984. Many concepts expressed in the book such as banned sex, thought police, food shortages from the past were all predictions that never became true. Orwell made the prediction that sex would be illegal in the year 1984. In the story Winston and Julia were caught having sex and .....

.... short story by Nathaniel Hawthorne, “Young Goodman Brown.” In the short story “Young Goodman Brown,” Hawthorne illustrates how a person can go from a state of innocence to a state of experience, thus corrupting the individual. As one reads the short story of Hawthorne, it is easy to observe that the overtone is one in which it displays the corruption of a man’s mind. The corruption of the protagonist, Young Goodman Brown, would not have been so clear if it wasn’t for the theme of his state of innocence being stripped of him by his experience. This theme is critical in this short story, whereas without it, Hawthorne .....

.... have to say that although Miss Rand's Objetivism works well with in the realm of the book, I fail to see it in the "real world." In the "real world" these underlying principles are ever- changing. Brought out by constantly advancing ideas, technology, and influences, old conventions become replaced everyday. I fail to see the social beauracracy that Miss Rand seems to believe there is. Besides even if it did exist, I don't see how intentionally going against it would make anyone happier. Although I have to say that I did not agree with Ayn Rand's ideas, I did however find The Fountainhead an excellent read. The stor .....

.... they go the could not escape the watching eyes of the controling government. The government itself was very mysterious and had several parts that were very suspicious to the main character, Winston, who worked in one part of the government. It was divided up into four parts. The Ministry of Truth, where Winston worked, was incharge of education and the arts. The Ministry of Peace, which was in command of war. The Ministry of plenty, which controlled economic affairs. And finally the Ministry of Love, which concerned itself with law and order. Orwell also uses description of technology to show how the government controlled it's .....

.... to see the frontier, or land that hasn’t been settled. This just so happens to be Indian land. As the story progresses, Dunbar befriends the tribe, turns against his Northern army, and goes to live with the Sioux. The tone here is a more warm and friendly environment, because Dunbar realizes that his new friends are more civil than men of his own kind. Things really start to turn around when Dunbar’s troops find out that he has joined the Sioux. They trap him and beat him, then make him serve as a slave. Dunbar never ends up going back to the white men’s army. The way that Blake presents the overall use of t .....

(Richler 1959, 312) The betrayal of Yvette, her speaking to Simcha, and the loss of hers and Virgil's friendships also punishes Duddy.

.... on the farm” (49). Hindley is also envious of the love that Catherine has for Heathcliff, and he tries to force them to live apart from each other, but Heathcliff and Catherine: “… they forgot everything the minute they were together again – at least the minute they had contrived some naughty plan of revenge…” (50). Even so, Hindley’s abuse is almost solely directly towards Heathcliff. The only time Hindley abuses anyone else is when he is drunk. Unlike Hindley, whose reason for his abusive power is his hatred for Heathcliff, Heathcliff’s abuse is directed at avenging past results. Through gambling, Heathcli .....

.... happen until part two, when Jem and Scout are attacked by Bob Ewell. People were prejudiced against Boo because he is different. The children had not seen him so they made up stories about him (Johnson,1). They were afraid of him. They didn't realize it was Boo leaving the gifts and wanted to be friendly. In part two the main focus is on Tom Robinson. He is a black man accused of raping white woman. The prejudice in this part of the novel is called racism. The opinion formed because of the color if Tom's skin. Racism was very common in the south at this period in American history. African Americans were treated differen .....
