.... many of the requirements in a Greek tragedy. However, as we look closer, there are many factors that are not found in Billy Budd that are required in a Greek tragedy. There are flaws to the theory. Analysis of the Billy Budd has shown that enough of these flaws are evident to interpret Billy Budd as not a Greek tragedy.

It can be explained as a variant. Interpretation has been a key issue in these two works. The two works have been interpreted in .....

.... Following the creation of the monster, Victor undergoes great pain when he states, “I passed the night wretchedly”(p.87). In the process of creating the monster, Victor has been isolated for a long time. He becomes mad and sickened after the monster’s awakening and has never felt true horror and fear such as this.

Victor rejoiced his spirit with pleasure on the arrival of his friend. Victor reco .....

.... their every move. Sophocles took their beliefs and used the Oedipus Trilogy to explore the irony of how the Fates work more closely. The Oedipus plays are separated into three main plays: Oedipus Rex (The King), Oedipus at Colonus, and Antigone.

.... those questions at sufficient length."2 While at the orphanage, Oliver from Oliver Twist also experienced a great amount of abuse. For example, while suffering from starvation and malnutrition for a long period of time, Oliver was chosen by the other boys at the orphanage to request more gruel at dinner one night. After making this simple request, "the master (at the orphanage) aimed a blow at Oliver's head with the ladle; pinioned him in his arms; and shrieked aloud for the beadle."3 The whole beginning of Oliver Twist's story was created from memories which related to Charles Dickens' childhood in a blacking factory ( which was overs .....

.... so we can understand the town life as if we lived there. This way we were able to understand how the people of Jefferson thought of her. If the story would have been told in first person we would not have been able to relate to Miss Emily. The reason for that would be, if she would have been the narrator we would have understood the story in a hole different manner. Faulkner used third person narration and from that we were able to find out many things about Miss Emily's past. For instance the death of her father, the love she had for Homer, and how she felt the need for affection. Those ideas she would have kept to herself, i .....

.... than money or a boxing match. It would have been a loss of dignity and pride, none of them wanted to lose that. Also, by the time the boys were given the chance to chase the money, they were numb from pain. I don't think the new torture methods were really affecting the boys.

.... “With proper legal procedure he was asked which he would prefer, to be beaten thirty-six times by the whole regiment, or to receive twelve bullets in his brain.� That is just one of the many predicaments in which our main character becomes involved in. Another such incident occurs in chapter fifteen when Candide is faced with his true love’s brother. In this scene the brother is outraged that Candide has expressed his love toward his sister due to his unworthiness, and this is the outcome: “…at the same time he stuck him across the face with the flat of his sword, Candide instantly drew his own sword and plunged it to the h .....
