.... will reexamine Williams's work in light of his claim that "plays in the tragic tradition offer us a view of certain moral values in violent juxtaposition" (The Rose Tattoo 151). Williams's plays outline a struggle between the moral values of non-conformists, who are outcasts because they can not, or will not, conform to the values of the dominant culture, and of conformists, who represent that culture. The outcast characters in Tennessee Williams's major plays do not suffer because of the actions or circumstances that make them outcast but because of the destructive impact of conventional morality upon them. The outcasts are driven, in .....

.... Darnay, and their daughter. Lucie is central, too, in the sense that she's caught in several triangles--the most obvious one involving Carton and Darnay. Lucie marries Darnay (he's upcoming and handsome, the romantic lead) and exerts great influence on Carton. A second, subtler triangle involves Lucie, her father, and Charles Darnay. The two men share an ambiguous relationship. Because Lucie loves Darnay, Dr. Manette must love him, too. Yet Darnay belongs to the St. Evremonde family, cause of the doctor's long imprisonment, and is thus subject to his undying curse. Apart from his ancestry, Darnay poses the threat, by mar .....

.... place on the front lines and therefor they were less than effective in strategic decision making processes. The American people also understood very little about the war. Understanding this puts anti-war protests in perspective; the American people could not envision the death and mutilation of children. American intentions in Vietnam were muddled, thus forces were misguided and outcomes were unfavorable. Originally the American presence in South Vietnam was mainly to push for the social betterment of the Vietnamese people. Soon however, an offensive stance was required in the face of socialist expansion into the region. America feared .....

.... if he does what he is called to do rather than what he believes to be morally right then he will have made the wrong decision and in the end will have no positive effect. This is evident when More says " I believe, when statesmen forsake their own private conscience for the sake of their public duties...they lead their country by a short route to chaos."(Bolt, p 22). Despite what many may think, More would rather not get involved or influence the life of the king concerning the divorce. To most people signing the oath is a minor thing. It is something that should be done to appease the King , despite personal beliefs. However, for .....

.... not to properly bury Polyneices is because he feels he is a traitor to Thebes. This is due to the fact that he broke out of exile and attacked his own city with an army form outside of Thebes. King Creon says he is a coward to his city, not a hero, and therfore does not deserve to be buried with honor like his brother. He forbids the people of Thebes to touch him, to say a prayer for him, or to bury him, Anyone who goes against his commands will ultimately be put to death. Creon is speaking for the best interst of the state, not in terms of family. He feels that he has to set an example for his people to deter cowardly actions like .....

.... he is trying to convey more meaning, with the hope that the reader will pause and contemplate what was just read. His stanzas are concluded when he wants more attention placed on his current idea. The narrator’s viewpoint towards life in this poem is quite different from how most people see it. Where he writes, “In a field / I am the absence / of field.” (ll. 1-3) instead of acknowledging his existence as something, he regards it as a lack of something. This negativity towards himself is what the entire poem is focused on. He uses the idea that when his body enters an area the parts of that area are momentarily interrup .....

.... Piggy was an educated boy who had grown up as an outcast. Due to his academic childhood, he was more mature than the others and retained his civilized behaviour. But his experiences on the island gave him a more realistic understanding of the cruelty possessed by some people. The ordeals of the three boys on the island made them more aware of the evil inside themselves and, in some cases, made the false politeness that had clothed them disappear. However, the changes experienced by one boy differed from those endured by another. This is attributable to the physical and mental differences between them. Jack was first described with havi .....

.... especially for women, is widely seen throughout the book. We see a transition in Celie from being a timid, young girl with little self worth to a strong, independent woman. She once was a slave to her step-father and later on her husband, but eventually found her own freedom and peace of mind through Shug Avery and other influential women was a fiercely independent woman from the start. She made her own decisions, spoke her mind, and let no one, especially any man, take advantage of her. In a crucial moment for Celie, Shug stood up and made a decision, she said "That's it. Pack your stuff. You coming back to Tennessee with me." She a .....

.... in this section and throughout the poem to tell us that we are free and can control our own destiny’s. We are shown, in this section, how exciting life is through the use of colourful imagery and explosive alliteration. Some examples are "Drunks in doorways"(Line7) and "Chickens in Chinatown windows". (Line 14) This section contrasts humans with dogs in the ways in which they think and feel. "He doesn’t hate cops / he merely has no use for them / and he goes past them". (Lines 23 -25) This tells us that if we have no use for something we look at it with indifference ignore it and go on with our liv .....

.... he from, but all we know is that he looks just like the main character. Which is a mystery and asks the questions how? In the book there is a part that says, “ Daddy wasn’t Daddy. He had Daddy’s blue eyes, Daddy’s dark brown hair, he sounded like Daddy; he was a dead-ringer for the Martin Stillwater pictured on the dust jackets of his books,” pg.12. Which mean that when the main character's daughters were to see him they would think he was there father. It is also a mystery that you don’t really know if the stranger was the real Martin Stillwater or if he was just his twin. There is a story that th .....
