To Say This Is Enough
Number of words: 1287 | Number of pages: 5.... important values in life. It is not important for him to believe in God. He does not believe in the after life, nor does he believe that he has to follow the Bible. For him, the Bible is another book written by a fanatical society that preceded his. Sheppard introduces that premise that God should be replaced by science by trying to impress its wonders to Rufus John. He reasons that since there is neither physical nor scientific evidence that god exists. Rufus should stop believing in God and the bible. Because of Sheppard’s lack of faith, he gauges his value according to how many people he has helped.

Hamlet, Contrast Between Hamle
Number of words: 723 | Number of pages: 3.... can be explained as a wish for safety, emotions and virtue which he considers to be at threat by Hamlet, ”But you must fear, his greatness weighed, his will is not his own”. With Hamlet it can be clearly seen in the scene of Ophelia’s funeral where he declares his love for her and his distress of the departure of her soul, “forty thousand brothers could not with all their quantity of love make my sum!”. Just before this both Hamlet and Laertes jump in her grave for a scuffle, without even a consideration. This is also an example of the two characters rashness.
In comparing Hamlet to the other youths of the play, Horat .....

"How Mosquitoes Came To Be": The Giant Lives On
Number of words: 1274 | Number of pages: 5.... question I asked myself is, if the giant was stabbed by the human and
"The monster screamed and fell down dead."(12), why did the giant still speak?
I know this is a legend or maybe just a fictionous story, but if the giant is

giants, which I might add is still being dealt with today with mosquitoes

My first question, if this giant was the only one on the planet, seemed
answered toward the end of the story with the introduction of the giant's son.

Another easy hidden truth was when Louise was saying, "free, free, free" and "free, body and soul free." These phrases would, in reality, show that she was happy and felt like her own self now. She wasn’t restricted by her husband, he was gone and she was her own woman. She was finally "free" as she would say. And finally, Louise’s pulse beats harder. That is just like the blood warming. Her pulse beating hides that she is full of joy. She is happy of what happened, and that she is "free." There are many truths that are hidden in thi .....

Lord Of The Flies
Number of words: 266 | Number of pages: 1.... between Jack’s band on the one hand and Ralph and Simon on the other.
This theme is mostly revealed through symbolism. Ralph is the symbol of good, while Jack is the symbol of evil.

Jack is a symbol of evil. He and his choir boys, who are presented almost as an army, ha .....

Great Expectations 3
Number of words: 1381 | Number of pages: 6.... Even after the
first, second, third, and even fourth of these surprises gave their
pleasing electric shocks to intelligent curiosity, the denouement
was still hidden, though confidentially foretold. The plot of the
romance is therefore universally admitted to be the best that
Dickens has ever invented. Its leading events are, as we read the
story consecutively, artistically necessary, yet, at the same time,
the processes are artistically concealed. We follow the movement of
a logic of passion and character, the real premises of which we
detect only when we are startled by the conclusions.
The plot of Great .....

Furthermore, Hawthorne shows how Hester becomes stronger as a result of the scarlet letter . This strength is shown in the forest when the role of pastor and parishioner switches. When Hester says, "Thou God punish! Thou shalt forgive" (178), she asks the forgiveness of God rather then man. This displays punishment done by God is more austere then man.
Another example of man punishing sin is Roger .....
