.... between the two Frankenstein and the creature is in a sense a combination of power. Frankenstein forced the creature into a life of solitude against his own will. "Hateful day when I received life… accursed creator…I am solitary and abhorred"(106). Yet by creating him, he had pulled himself into the same path of loneliness. His powerful use of knowledge of creation has in turn role reversed the approval between leader and suppressor. The creature's monstrous build and frame has made him strong and evil. His dislike for mankind has created a path of destruction and he now over powers Frankenstein. "Slave… remember that I .....

.... is often very reserved and distant, the one time he shows emotion it is directed towards her. The act takes place towards the end of the novel, after Darcy announces to him his intention of marriage. The reader first notices that he is not his usual self when Lizzy walks into the library. He is not cool and composed as in other times he is present, but instead is "walking around the room, looking grave and anxious." (Austen, 334) As he starts to speak it becomes clear just how much Darcy's announcement affected Mr. Bennet. "My child, let me not have the grief of seeing you unable to respect your partner in life" (Austen, 335) .....

.... front of his face, he searches and searches not judging by ’names’ so much as placing the wrong meaning on them. Near the end of the novel, William gives Adso the following advise ‘ Fear prophets, Adso, and those prepared to die for the truth…he loved his truth so lewdly that he dared do anything to destroy falsehood…the truth lies in learning to free ourselves from insane passion for truth’ (491). Thus, the theme of the novel is the truth. William searches for it and searches for it, and finally finds it when, infuriated, he sees the clues for what they really mean, instead of what they desire .....

.... effects of colonization on the colonized, while the central idea in "Heart of Darkness" is the negative effects of colonization on both the colonized and the colonizers. The differences in these themes are significant to the strategies used by the authors to explore the adverse effects of colonization. Swift makes great use of irony and imagery, to accentuate the plight of the Irish. Conrad comments on the frightening changes that people involved with colonization can go through by exploring character development and detailing a narrative of oppression. Swift uses irony in "A Modest Proposal" because it allows him to highlight the .....

.... The most troubling and powerful piece of evidence to prove his insanity is that he does not feel the slightest twinge of guilt nor the smallest sliver of remorse after he murders three innocent bystanders in cold blood. The human conscience is what separates humans from animals because human’s have the ability to question evil deeds such as murder yet Hamlet’s conscience remains untouched after the murders of three people. The lack of guilt should be proof enough that Hamlet’s mind is convoluted. Throughout the play Hamlet continuously shows characteristics that are closely related to madness. One of the m .....

.... order to survive. In the end, these women demonstrate tenacity and confidence in themselves. The four main mothers in the novel are shown to be excessively strict, and to put extreme pressure of expectations on their daughters. As the mothers raise their daughters, they are reminded of their childhood, and earlier days. They seem to have had some similar feelings of hoplessness when it came to their own mother's expectations. There is an immense emphasis on honor, obedience and loyalty. Another emphasis is competition, the mothers using their daughter's acheivements to decipher who is a better mother. The daughters soon bec .....

.... to wait and take decisive action. Evidence shows that Hamlet feels life is a burden yet Hamlet still remains tranquil as he soliloquizes. The perfect iambic pentameter of Shakespeare gives this passage a sense of fluidity in contrast with the whirlpool of emotions in other soliloquies Words such as suffer, troubles, dies, sleep, heartache, calamity, and weary, depict depression as Hamlet is a very low-spirited and depressed man. There are also images that are tools of destruction: slings, arrows, arms, and whips. Shakespeare’s c eful use of words and structure displays Hamlet’s ideas successfully. If one choo .....

.... Shug Avery and other influential women was a fiercely independent woman from the start. She made her own decisions, spoke her mind, and let no one, especially any man, take advantage of her. In a crucial moment for Celie, Shug stood up and made a decision, she said "That's it. Pack your stuff. You coming back to Tennessee with me." She acts on her own terms and does what she feels, no questions asked. Another example of this theme was the way Sofia, Celie's daughter-in-law, carried herself. She wasn't hesitant in the least bit to fight, physically and verbally, for herself or her cause. She offers her advice loud and c .....

.... social comment. Since Utopia is a work of many ideas, it is impossible of course to expand the book unless one has some notion of the hierarchy of conception in it. A caretul reading of Utopia does seem to me to reveal clearly the hierarchy of it author's ideas at the time he composed the book. Although the interpretation of Utopia which follows has no pretension to substantial novelty, but rather disavows it, my approach to the problem may seem singular and eccentric. The account of such an analysis will necessarily be a little dull, so I shall have to request the forbearance of the reader without being able to promise for his .....

.... honor like his brother. He forbids the people of Thebes to touch him, to say a prayer for him, or to bury him, Anyone who goes against his commands will ultimately be put to death. Creon is speaking for the best interst of the state, not in terms of family. He feels that he has to set an example for his people to deter cowardly actions like Polyneices' in the future. Antigone, on the other hand, is determined to bury her brother. She feels that he fouth just as bravely and died just as miserably as Eteocles did, therefore should be buried as a man not as an animal left for the birds to pick on his dead body. She is also af .....
