.... As technology increases, the use for human beings in the work force decreases leaving an overwhelming amount of depression among humans. Therefore, a way to continue the production of technological findings is by bringing up humans from day one to accept their unhappiness as normal. By "breeding" human beings to accept the fact that they are born to do a specific group. Higher authorities know the illimination of humans' emotions is useful to stabilize what they think to be a utopian society. Huxley portrays a "perfect dystopia" where scientists "breed people to order" in a specific class (Baker 2). The purpose of this paper is to shows .....

.... also typifies this kind of literature. Besides the central theme of love, is another prevalent theme, that of a revolution gone bad. He shows us that, unfortunately, human nature causes us to be vengeful and, for some of us, overly ambitious. Both these books are similar in that both describe how, even with the best of intentions, our ambitions get the best ofus. Both authors also demonstrate that violence and the Machiavellian attitude of "the ends justifying the means" are deplorable. George Orwell wrote Animal Farm, ". . . to discredit the Soviet system by showing its inhumanity and its back-sliding from ideals [he] valued . . ."(Gard .....

.... of chess. Throughout all of the Jing-Mei Woo stories June has to recall all of the memories of what her mother had told her. She remembers how her mother left her babies during the war. June's mother felt that since she had failed as a mother to her first babies she had failed as a person. When she made June take piano lessons June thought that she was trying to make her become a child prodigy like Waverly, but her mother did this because she knew it would benefit June for the rest of her life. Because of the death of her mother, June was forced to take the place of her mother in more than just filling her place at the Maj Jong tabl .....

.... he also started writing his second book, "The Firm,." His luck changed one day in 1990 when Paramount Pictures paid him $600,000 for th e rights to his new book and this happened even before a publisher accepted it. The Firm was published in 1991 and stayed on the best-sellers lists for nearly a year. In 1992 his third book, The Pelican Brief was published and it became and enormous success. At the same time "A Time to Kill" was republished and this time it became a best-selling book. In 1993 "The Client" was published and "The Chamber" came the year after that. His two most recent books are "The Runaway Jury" (1996) and "The Partner" (19 .....

.... Sea"). The final chapter deals with what Michener refers to as "The Golden Men": Those who lived in Haw (not necessarily Hawaiians) who contributed a great deal to the islands and their people. Since Hawaii covers such a huge time span, there are a great many plots and sub-plots, all of which show the different situations that each of the many "types" of Hawaiians are confronted with. Michener uses mostly specific, fictional details to support the general ideas of the islands and their various people, that he conveys through Hawaii. I will go into more detail about the plot in the "Documentation" section. Michener's Hawaii is .....

.... the other part of literature for me is the test of time consisting of whether the text has been taken in by other people. After all, it isn't one person that turns a story into a classic; the same should be said of literature. Rosenblat said the same idea better than I: "Keeping the live process of the literary experience before us, I shall attempt to look more deeply into the nature of the literary experience, and to explore implications for problems of literary theory. . ." I think that Rosenblat would agree with me that it might not be literature in my own sense, but on the larger scale, literature it is. II. At the begi .....

.... bury her brother that was to be left out for the vultures? Would it have been better just to leave the situation how it was? The fact is, Antigone did the right thing. She was acting out of divine influence so to speak. Since divinity and humanity are shown to be colliding forces where divinity out weighs humanity in ancient Greece. Antigone was justified in her actions. Antigone was following divine laws, or walking with divine shoes, while Kreone followed the laws of the state. Her brother’s afterlife was so important to Antigone that she was willing to give up anything to ensure her brother’s happiness and "future" after his death. .....

.... insanity, we may speak of it as such); rather, the military actually operates as a huge business machine, whose operators’ primary concern lies in that of personal advancement instead of the well-being of their country. Although the title of General, Sergeant, or Major may make one seem distinguished and well-learned, Heller offers a different perspective. Major Major Major, Scheisskoph and co. share one common characteristic: they are more fit to be clowns than leaders. Through portraying Major Major Major as an inefficient Major (he is unwilling to meet with those who wish to see him) whose promotion was a direct result of his name, one .....

.... his own, and he accepts this as fact. This is clear when the Count asks them ³why don¹t you get married, you two? (68)² To this question, they give a lame half hearted awnser which implies that it will never happen. He is tolerant of her behavior because he loves her unconditionally and is willing to overlook everything she does. Jake¹s willingness to endure and forgive Brett¹s promiscuity and infidelity is an indication of the skewed values of the age. It was an ³anything goes² era right after the first war, and Jake¹s message to Brett seems to be the same: anything goes as long as you eventually come back to me. Jake is f .....

.... is big. Curley doesn't like big people because he is small himself. He believes he can boss people around because he is the bosses' son. His wife is a flirt. She wants everybody at the Ranch. Curley doesn't like that so he tries to keep her in the house. Slim is like the head of the ranch because he knows what is going on and everybody likes him. He is the kind of guy you would want as a friend. He is called a Jerkline skinner. He is a person that is very easy to get along with. So he becomes one of George's good friends. The saying "The need for social companionship is a basic urge common to all mean and deserves cons .....
