Smerdyakov
Number of words: 1765 | Number of pages: 7.... He finds the controversy around the mystery of the boy's conception amusing. He employs his own son as one of his servants, as his "lackey." Although incredible attention to detail is paid to the story of Lizaveta, Dostoevsky waits to speak of the boy himself. It is as if the author is all ready separating this last son. Dostoevsky claims to not want to go into detail about so as not to distract the reader from the story. However, it is an intention set-up on the part of the author.

for murdering Caesar, which will surely be logical. Then, Mark Antony

will be satisfied; let us be satisfied." I am anxious to hear Brutus'
speech, for I am very curious to hear the justification of t .....

Canterbury Tales Wife Of Bath
Number of words: 426 | Number of pages: 2.... her in the sense that he is like a 'slave' and she will 'command' over
him.. This quotation seems as if the Wife of Bath is leaning toward
the feministic opinion.
"Nevertheless, since I know your pleasure I'll satisfy your
physical pleasure." This was said by the Wife of Bath and supports
the non-feministic view. The reason this is considered non-feministic
is because the woman is giving in to the man's desire which goes
against feministic beliefs. The Wife of Bath has a choice of not
giving in to the man, but she decides to let the man have pleasure for
his desire not hers, because she ha .....
