.... happiness. “This is a small community, [they] all know each other here. [They] all depend on each other. [They’re] not very social, [they] mind their own business” (p 31). One apparent aspect of the ritual of banning together against catastrophes is that it not only draws the group together physically, but it also has a tendency to bond them emotionally. A community joins together when there is a threat to disrupt the peace and comfort that a group setting provides. The adult men and women put the fire out with garden hoses, shovels, wet towels and blankets… Kids [Lauren’s] age helped out where [they] wer .....

Even when Jim has the chance to act l .....

.... without an explicit resolution leaves the reader feeling the frightfulness of Mabel and the actual contentment of Dr. Fergusson. “A Jury of Her Peers� by Susan Glaspell’s is a wonderful, suspenseful story. Minnie Wright, the character accused of murdering her husband, is brought to life by the opinions of the other characters in this story. The author to be a disheartened, lonely woman, who had changed from a flourishing singer to a desolate housewife, portrayed Minnie. Clues found throughout the house pointed every finger at Minnie, but it was never stated directly in the story. The reasoning for the lack of a frank conclusion is .....

.... idea Barthes addresses in his novel I can find addressed in La Jetee. Because of this fact, and because of the power of both works, I was led at the end of my research to some new, yet fundamental ideas about the nature of photography itself. One of the most interesting aspects of this study, and also the most challenging, is the nature of Marker's “film� itself. Simply the fact that I have to put the word film in quotes when applying it to La Jetee is perhaps the strongest evidence of the enigma that this film has been throughout its history. What exactly is la Jetee? This is a question that haunted my research. How do you take a .....

.... out. I am very responsible and I can be counted on to do errands around the house. I am very proud of my good traits; I try to show them as much as possible. Unfortunately I am not as proud of my evil traits. I am a very sarcastic person. My sense of humor does not always make people laugh. At times I can also have an attitude. If you catch me at the wrong moment, beware! When I am extremely tired and overwhelmed, I get frustrated and take my anger out on the people around me. When I feel repressed I often have a bad temper. Sometimes at my job I feel overworked and exhausted, and I have no patients with customers. I try not to s .....

.... I feel Santiago was portrayed as a hero successfully in the book The Old Man and the Sea was because even though when he came in to the harbor only with a skeleton of the largest fish he had ever seen, the town still was filled with respect and honor for him because of the fact that he was a feeble old fisherman that no one would ever expected to have been able to catch such a fish as he did, skeleton or not. here is an example of Santiago's determination, for which the people of the town respected him for, “he took all of is pain and what was left of his strength and his long gone pride and he put it against the fishes agony and the .....

.... are always used in the novel to depict his emotions, as they are in the quote above. When the boys land on the island they are all wearing their school uniforms, but Jack and his choir are wearing cloaks and caps. Oddly enough, Jack is one of the only boys whose last name is learned. I think the author does this to make Jack stand out. He is a very important character because throughout this whole novel, Golding depicts this island and savagery to everyday life. Jack is the perfect character to play this role due to his temperament and power hungry acts. Jack is solely concerned with hunting, and cannot see the necessity of other t .....
