.... and Iago and are privy to their conspiracy to undermine Othello. With a masterful stroke, Iago subdues Roderigo, his 'dupe' and sets up the initial plot- Iago intends to gain his rightful position of lieutenant by destroying Othello and Casio. "I Know my price, I am worth no worse a place." Although Iago's plan does not change throughout the play, his motives, which obviously influence his actions do. Iago's initial motive in destroying the protagonist is hatred. "I hate the Moor." This shifts to jealousy, "He's done my office", to just sheer malignant motives. "If Cassio do remain he hath a daily beauty in his l .....

.... a sense, humans are being led astray by all the ongoing imperfections, which bombard our society today. We tend to immerse ourselves into the problems of the world and forget about God. Bonaventre says we cannot allow ourselves to shut out our Lord out of our lives. He notes, "when one has fallen, he must lie where he is unless another is at hand to raise him up". Bonaventure is saying that when we do shut God out of our lives and is affected by it, we must let God pick us up and show us the light. We cannot let ourselves be distracted by the claws of society. We must remain focus in the reason we were put on this earth. If .....

.... to us. In the scene with the taxi-man, she appears significantly defensive in her response concerning the cost of the cab ride. Eliza feels humiliated by the taxi-man’s sarcastic response to her. From the start of Higgins and Eliza’s relationship, Eliza is treated like a child. Higgins says to her, “If your naughty and idle you will sleep in the back kitchen among the black beetles, and be walloped by Mrs. Pearce with a broomstick.” (p. 36) Higgins treats her like this for months until the audience meets her again in London society. Eliza’s first test is at a luncheon given by Mrs. Higgins. Eliz .....

.... had a scent of sweetness, but that is just what Cathy wanted the town to see and think when Cathy planned her kill. On page 114-115, "The fire broke out... the Ames house went up like a rocket... Enough remained of Mr. and Mrs. Ames to make sure there were two bodies." Cathy had set the house on fire and broke into the safe to steal the family's money. As the investigators scoped the place, they noticed that the bolts stuck out and there were no keys left in the locks. They knew it was not an accident. Cathy's body was never found, but the town assumed that she died. "If it had not been for Cathy's murde .....

.... hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world. These lines form the epigraph of the novel, and are a conduit for expressing Achebe's main theme i.e. the destruction of one being by another. They also help in focusing the reader throughout the narrative to the underlying idea of the poem. However, before proceeding it is necessary to elaborate on the basic implication of the poem. The image that comes to mind upon reading the first sentence is that of an outward spiral formed by the falconer moving around the forest in search of his prey, the falcon. One can almost see the bird soaring high in the sky, and totally unaware of the h .....

.... and between it and the wheel-track of the street, was a grass plot, much overgrown with burdock, pigweed, apple peru, and such unsightly nail in the soil that had so early borne the black flower of civilized society, a prison." Almost parallel to Hester’s deserving of pain stands a prison. Born out of civilized society springs a prison, a home of villainy. A breading ground for the wrong. What building more deserving, and what woman? Hester became a prison. Holding in the wrongness of her sin. Her justice was to carry out it’s sentence. "It may be less soothing than a sinless conscience. That I cannot .....

.... in the story to be proposed to, and she did a very peculiar thing. She is proposed to by Mr. Collins, the very man who is going to inherit her father's estate. She refuses his offer even though his "situation in life...[his] connections....and [his] relationship to [Elizabeth], are circumstances highly in [his] favor." Elizabeth simply says that "[he] could never make [her]happy...and [she] is the last woman in the world that could make [him] so." What makes her decision so peculiar is that in marrying this man she could keep her father's estate in the family and become financially sound for the rest of her life. Bein .....

.... book. How Beloved traps Sethe is simple, for Sethe "the future was a matter of keeping the past at bay" (Morrison 42) and when her past, Beloved, catches up with her the future is gone and she is enslaved. What's more, Beloved does not intend to allow her slave to go free, "I will not lose her again." (Morrison 214) When Beloved returns to the leaves it could be argued that she was either chased away by Sethe's rejections and liberation from her slavery, or that the relationship between Beloved and Sethe has changed. The possible change in the relationship could be that Beloved is no longer the embodiment of Sethe's pain, but .....

.... people to a desperate state to do anything. This is a large contributor to the reasons for the extreme violence present there today. The author states, "A Croat, thus, is someone who is not a Serb. A Serb is someone who is not a Croat." This quotation profoundly expresses the short-sighted mentality present in their conflict. In his travels in Germany, the author points out an important question. Does the nation make the state, or the state the nation? This question by far does not stop here, especially when Germany is the subject. The essence of the German people is seen by some as aggressive and offensive, thus the existence of t .....

.... They found it impossible to directly confront her - to evict her for not paying taxes - to approach her about the awful stench coming from her house. Moreover, when she went to the drugstore and requested the best poison that exist, arsenic, the druggist asked her why she wanted this poison because " the law requires you to tell what you are going to use it for "(417). She did not answer to his question, but the druggist let her go even so because she dominated him. Once again she succeeded in confronting people in the town, the authorities. They were trapped by their own belief that Emily was untouchable. The town did not face h .....
