.... is supported by the last two lines of the first stanza, which state, "Dilapidation’s processes Are organized Decays" This means that crumbling is a result of dilapidation, which is caused by gradual decay. The deterioration that results is progressive: one stage of decay leads to the next until crumbling inevitably comes along. The second stanza contains four images of decay: "cobweb, rust, dust and borer in the axis." These images are combined with specific details which give them a deeper meaning. The dust is a "cuticle," which suggests that it is at the edges. The & .....

.... citizens to the specific profession, also known as a “house”. In this section, his dream of going to the House of Scholars is lost and he is sent to the House of Street Sweepers instead.

These were the only two forms of entertainment the workers had .....

.... was about six and a half feet tall, judging him from his tracks; he dined on raw squirrels and any cats he could catch, that's why his hands are blood-stained - if you ate an animal raw, you could never wash the blood off. There was a long jagged scar that ran across his face; what teeth he had were yellow and rotten; his eyes popped, and he drooled most of the time." The children test his boundaries as well as their own imaginations by constructing the image. It adds to the game and encourages Jem and Scout to develop distinctions for their boundaries. Children also learn about boundaries from other people's games where boundari .....

.... of acres an' a cow and some pigs." (Roberts, 187). George's dream ran deeper than a love for farming and independence. The motivation for this dream was not just a product of the poor state of the country and widespread unemployment, but it was a dream that could ensure a happy ending for Lennie. George is anxious to secure his own place so that Lennie can live the type of life where he can be happy and not be hurt by people who do not understand his simple ways. George would run the farm; Lennie would tend the rabbits. This was Lennies dream, to tend the rabbits. He could think of nothing else more enjoyable than tend .....

.... played an important role in blood-revenge, especially if one of their laws were defied. In the Odyssey, Zeus and Athena intervene on Odysseus’ behalf when Odysseus wishes to destroy the suitors that had plagued his palace for a number of years. Zeus intervenes after his sacred policy, his policy of hospitality, was violated and for that the suitors were punished. In Julius Caesar, there is no evidence of any specific gods interfering, such as dialogue or actions, but there are many supernatural occurrences. These omens show that something supernatural, be it a god or fate, knows what is going to occur in the near future. Theref .....

.... a sudden I feel different—not like I ever felt before.” (Pg. 33) Delivering telegram message changed everything for Homer because he was no longer a child. Furthermore, delivering death telegrams made Homer sick. At the age of fourteen, when Homer had to deliver death messages, this made him realize that one day he is going to die himself. At the end when Homer realizes his brother’s death, Homer said, “What’s a man supposed to do? I don’t know who to hate.

.... meetings, building a signal fire, and constructing huts. He appraises the advice of Piggy according to its practicality. He fights against the superstition and terror of the boys as being detrimental to the organised progress of their society. And that's what Mack's show the good sides of human nature. The bad sides in human nature in the novel represents Jack Merridew. If the novel is read as religious allegory Jack emerges as an envoy of the Devil, enticing the other boys to sin. His victory over Piggy represents the triumph of violence over intellect, as he smashes one of the lenses of the fat boy's glasses. The knife that h .....

.... ahead to what we might become, but also to turn and look back at what allowed us to arrive at this threshold of the new millennium. The characters in tell us what they knew of life; its pain and hope, its simplicity and truth. What they say is what they believe and are. I feel that Thornton Wilder believed that life was meaningful only when lived with full awareness of the value of the present moment. Thornton Wilder said that was not supposed to be a speculation about the conditions of life after death. I believe that he meant it to find a value above all price for the smallest events of our daily life. To appreciate ever .....

.... 97 to 115 tells Kalypso that Odysseus’s fate lie not on the island, but back home in Ithaka. The parataxis interrupts the line of conversation to inform the reason why Odysseus arrives here.

At times, a parataxis of a certain character in one part of the poem help explain matters later on. In book XI, lines 281 to 297, Odysseus tells of Chloris, a beautiful maiden. Of those lines, lines 287 to 290 are paratactical, “Also she .....
