.... of book-learning, but he has a sharpness for understanding many issues. He is imaginative and clever, and has a sharp eye for detail, though he doesn't always understand everything he sees, or its significance. Huck is essentially a realist, he knows only what he sees and experiences. He doesn't have a great deal of faith in things he reads or hears. He must experiment to find out what is true and what isn't. In general then, Huck's attitude seems to be that if you let other people alone, they won't come around disturbing your peace and quiet. There doesn't seem to be any percentage in stirring up trouble by getting people all excit .....

The thought that stupidity helps one through life is a hard idea to accept but in some ways is true. Sometimes in life maybe it is the right idea to just go along with the group instead of using your own judgement. This i .....

.... not know what that word means. Keats uses connotation to add more passion to his writing and emotion to his words. His use of connotation is concurrent with imagery in the last line of the third stanza when he writes, "A burning forehead, and a parching tongue." By using these two literary elements in conjunction with each other he was able to create larger emphasis over that statement. Allusion is the technique used to refer back in history or literature.

Being the righteous man he is, he attempted to thwart his fate by leaving his parents. Later, he journeys into Thebes (his true birthplace) an .....
