.... of thins happens frequently. During the course of the story or movie, the writer does an exceptional job of terrifying the viewer or reader and then concludes the piece with a sort of an upsetting ending. This can be found in many of today’s horror movies. A good example would be “I Know What You Did Last Summer.” In this film, the writer takes a regular fisherman and turns him into a monster. Giving him features like being six feet tall, four feet wide wearing a big coat, a big hat that covers his face and a large hook in his hand would make any viewer fear a fisherman at that time. However, at the end he turns out t .....

.... once again. In an attempt to deal with this he leaves school a few days prior to the end of term, and goes to New York to take a vacation before returning to his parents’ inevitable irritation. Told as a monologue, the book describe Holden’s thoughts and activities over these few days, during which he describes a developing nervous breakdown. This was evident by his bouts of unexplained depression, impetuous spending and generally odd, erratic behavior, prior to his eventual nervous collapse. Some critics have argued that Holden’s character is erratic and unreliable, as he has many of the middle-class values that he .....

.... what suffering was like. She has always had plenty of food, shelter, and clothing. As a reader, you can see how her views towards the Indian’s choice of food gradually changes throughout her journey, and how it is related to the change in her own self. After tragically losing all of her family and her home, she had to repress her feelings to move on with the Indians to survive. She described the Wampanoag Indians at "Ravenous beasts" when she was captivated, which shows the anger that she felt towards the Indians at that time. The Indian’s diet was really different from the whites. Rowlandson hardly ate a thing .....

.... something unexpected occurs. When Cassio takes hold of Desdemona's hand before the arrival of the Moor Othello, Iago says, "With as little a web as this will I ensnare as great a fly as Cassio." [Act II, Scene I, Line 163] His cunning and craftiness make him a truly dastardly villain indeed. Being as smart as he is, Iago is quick to recognize the advantages of trust and uses it as a tool to forward his purposes. Throughout the story he is commonly known as, and commonly called, "Hone .....

.... out that it would be a white and black union. Mr. Logan shows some resistance and never really lets Mr. Wheeler know if he would do it or not. This turning point is important because later on in the book the Logans go to a meeting about the union. After that, the night men ambush the next meeting (Logans don’t attend). Dube, who was at the meeting, comes knocking on the Logans door asking for help. If this event would have not taken place, the second union meeting would have not gotten ambushed and all of those people wouldn’t have gotten hurt. Dube wouldn’t have knocked on the Logans door asking for help. The meet .....

.... lived a life of sensation and careless enjoyment. They loved to dance, gamble, fish, attend feasts, play on the fiddle and to live without much thought of the morrow." Eaton 252 Creoles were very lively outgoing people because of their comfortable tight society. Activities such as Mardi Gras and Sunday afternoon Mass holiday spirits contribute the liveliness of these people (Walker 252).

.... about it. It probably provides them with a good topic to start writing about in the first place. The lack of realization seems to be a powerful motivator in the lives of these artists. All of the artists in the readings seem to have gone through a period of lack of realization before wising up to what their experiences with their first loves meant. They probably did not know that their first loves were their first loves until later in their lives. In the case of Robert Hayden and Theodore Roethke, it took them their whole adolescent years to realize who their first loves were. But no matter how long or how they realized it, most .....

.... how extreme they may have been. These transcendentalists had many ideas that seemed to others to be extremely impractical. The authors thought that they could transform the world through their ideas. One of their main ideas was that we are all true individuals and should not conform to whatever the “norm” is. Thoreau tells us to live our own life, whether it be good or bad, it is ours. “However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it or call it hard names”(247). Also, we should do the morally right thing. We should do what our heart says is right and not always listen to our heads. .....

.... house, is immediately driven to superstitious descriptions despite his attempts to remain rational. Because the reader sees everything through the narrator, the evil supernatural imagery that is conveyed can only be interpreted as a foreshadowing of what is to happen to the narrator in the story. When he says things like “the insufferable gloom pervading my spirit” upon looking at the house, the reader has to sense something-sinister going on within the house and the fear that the narrator feels toward it. After entering the house, the narrator discovers his boyish friend in serious mental illness, which has altered e .....

.... lunch and dinner and taking care of the children and cleaning. Women also expressed their devotion in church. Women of that time seemed to be extremely educated in the subject of the church and their religion. The book notes her as a Puritan saint who seemed to find divine providence in the grueling situations. Throughout her ordeal she uses quotes and scriptures to help her cling on to hope and to somehow stay alive through her deadly situation. In the beginning she would walk along wounded and carrying her sick and dying child. “ The Lord upheld me with his gracious and merciful Spirit, and we both alive to see the ligh .....
