.... but to deal with Emily. When the town started to change Emily refused to do so and it was apparent that the town saw her house as “an eyesore among eyesores”(414). The town was very interested in her relationship with Homer Barron a foreman that was working on the contract for paving the sidewalks in the town. They were pleased at first but later they kind of had mixed feelings saying that she as “a Grierson would not think seriously of a Northerner, a day laborer”(417). Emily is the antagonist in the story, she is stuck in time, she absolutely refuses to change despite the fact that society was chan .....

.... That means there are no vaccines and there are no cures for these killers. In 1976 Ebola climbed out of its primordial hiding place in the jungles of Africa, and in two outbreaks in Zaire and Sudan wiped out six hundred people. But the virus had never been seen outside of Africa and the consequences of having the virus in a busy suburb of Washington DC is too terrifying to contemplate. Theoretically, an airborne strain of Ebola could emerge and circle the world in about six weeks. Ebola virus victims usually "crash and bleed," a military term which literally means the virus attacks every organ .....

.... in the Civil War. Crane remarks on this later in the narrative: "He was aware that these battalions with their commotions were woven red and startling into the gentle fabric of the softened greens and browns. It looked to be a wrong place for a battlefield" (69). Green is an image of the natural world and of the regiment's fresh youth, while red, in the previous quote, is clearly an image of battle. At the start, however, Crane uses red to describe distant campfires: ". . . one could see across the red, eyelike gleam of the hostile camp-fires set in the low brows of the distant hills" (43). Obviously, the fires are red. But Fle .....

.... else." This someone else just happened to be Edmond Dantes, the new captain of the Pharoan. From that point on, Fernand was very envious of Dantes. Fernand had done every thing in his power to capture Mercedes' heart and yet the one who held it was Edmond Dantes. This made him very jealous and discontented. Another trait Fernand possessed was selfishness. Fernand was extremely selfish and self-centered. Everything that he did revolved around him. After learning that Mercedes refused to marry him, she showed up clinging to Dantes. The book describes Mercedes trying to introduce them in this way, "Keeping her" (Mercedes') "hand cla .....

.... consumption. Chief Seathl spoke of issues that were argued for many years, and which still have relevance in our lives today. Through remarkably poetic penmanship, Chief Seathl’s letter to the president also showed the great respect that he and other Native Americans had for this land, but that the white settlers didn’t. The letter written by Chief Seathl was one of the most powerful combinations of poetry and prose. “His appetite will devour the earth and leave behind only a desert. The sight of your cities pains the eyes of the redman. But perhaps it is because the redman is a savage and does not unde .....

.... He is no longer the self-serving, cold, conniving man that he really is. He becomes a kind, caring man who does his very best to ensure that Gertrude stays with him. Claudius also does his best to keep Hamlet from trying to take the kingdom and destroy what Claudius has worked for so long to gain. The women in Hamlet are confused in a much different way. Both Ophelia and Gertrude mask themselves to the harsh realities of their life. Ophelia's mask is far more fragile than any other is. She puts up a defense at first, trying to protect herself from Hamlet's cruelty, but it fails. Ophelia believes for awhile, that a hamlet loves .....

.... guilt to Horatio and now realizes that he must continue on with his revenge plot. The conflict between Hamlet and Claudius is delayed by Hamlet but does eventually occur in the last scene.

Hamlet, now realizing that there is no more time for him to delay his revenge, stabs Claudus and kills him.

.... down through layers of mystery until all of the puzzles in the story have been solved, and only the great wound of a doomed love remains. attention to fragments of memory that evoke feelings even before we understand what they mean. Also, as its grand contrapuntal themes of fidelity and betrayal, of death and rebirth, play themselves out, a fierce longing for a moral order emerges as well. Michael Ondaatje's novel amasses hypnotic power and tremendous cumulative impact, suggesting, in its resolutely nonlinear way, fragments of ecstasy and pain breaking loose from the floor of an ocean of memory, floating upward into recollect .....

.... TV have succeeded in making the world smaller. Everyone immediately knows events that occur anywhere on the globe. This information can make you money in the stock market, be the lifeblood of the newspaper business, or provide necessary government information. By bringing people closer together and making countries and peoples interdependent, technology may make war more costly and thus contribute to peace. However, one must not watch the world change; one must change with it. As Bob Dylan sang: "Your old role is rapidly aging, please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand, for the times they are a changin'." Tech .....

.... make her appear dead, and later wake to be free of the shame of marrying Paris. Here, Friar Lawrence is assuring Juliet that he will send a letter to Romeo, explaining their plan. Romeo doesn’t receive that letter, and he does not know what is to happen. Free will comes with great consequences. Friar Lawrence and Juliet inflicted their own wounds by not telling Romeo of their plan. If they had taken the time to make sure that Romeo got the information, their plan might have succeeded, and Romeo and Juliet would be free to marry each other. A greater power than we can contradict hath thwarted our intents. (V, iii, 154-155) After .....
