.... only is it an heirloom, it represents his living, and it is part of the family. 3. Juana is dissatisfied by her own method because it was free and lacked the doctor's authority. Juana's reaction to the appearance of the scorpion was fear for her first born. Then, after the sting, she wanted to take Coyotito to the doctor. He would not treat it. This demonstrated not only a war between culture's, but a war between social classes. If the baby were white or the parents well paid, but lacking immediate money, the doctor would have probably treated it. 4. The beat of the song is his heartbeat. The melody is the passing sea life. Suc .....

.... from the others to be alone and begins to have feelings that something is wrong. He starts to have premonitions of the Beast: The Lord of the Flies. When the boys set off in a party to find the Beast on the mountain, Simon starts to see a vision of what they will find.

However Simon thought of the beast, there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick. (103) Simon has a direct premonition of one of the .....

.... important role in the whole of Greek folklore. Something this ever-present bears further examination. In The Odyssey, prophecy in its myriad forms affects nearly every aspect of the epic. Prophecies are seen in the forms of omens, signs, strict prediction of the future, divine condemnation, and divine instruction.

Moreover, prophecies can be interpreted not only on the "plot device" level, but also on the level of characterization. Whether a character accepts or denies the gods’ prophecies tells the reader something about the c .....

.... the woman crosses the river she begins her jaunt to the house she once lived in. There are a few lines in the story that clue the reader in that it has been a very long time since she has been back here.

.... a nervous breakdown that was characterized by his sudden unexplained depressions. “What I really felt like, though, was committing suicide.” “I felt so lonesome, all of a sudden.” Before his eventual nervous collapse he experienced impulsive spending and generally odd, erratic behavior. “All I had was three singles and five quarters and a nickel left – boy, I spent a fortune since I left Pencey. Then what I did, I went down near the lagoon and I sort of skipped the quarters and the nickel across it, where it wasn’t frozen.” “About halfway to the bathroom, I sort of started .....

.... Luther undermines the first wall, and further weakens the Church by striking the second. The pope’s duty is to interpret the Holy Scriptures. The people follow the pope because he has a sincere understanding of the Bible. However there is no proof that the pope has the greatest understanding of the Holy Scriptures. Martin Luther believes that there may be other common people who are just as capable of interpreting the Bible. Luther argues if a “humble person” is just as knowledgeable of the Bible he or she should be followed as well. The pope’s understanding of the Bible should be used in bettering the Christian well b .....
