Words: 1725 - Pages: 7.... “A” on her bosom, which stood for adultery, for her entire life. Truth was revealed to Hester by the fact that she became pregnant with a child as a result of her sin. Pearl noticed her mother’s scarlet A as a baby and was attracted to it instantly for some reason. Pearl notices the letter as an infant as her “eyes had been caught by the glimmering of the gold embroidery about the letter, and, putting up her hand, she grasped at it…”(98) and Hester feels the “torture inflicted by the intelligent touch of Pearl’s baby hand.” (98).

Hamlet - The Tragedy Of Hamlet
Words: 914 - Pages: 4.... proves to be fatal for him. An example of how Polonius' innocent involvement with the royalty results in his death can be found at the beginning of Act III, scene iv, when Hamlet stabs him while he is hiding behind the arras in Gertrude's room. This shows how Polonius, a man unaware of the true nature of the situation he is in, is killed by a member of the royalty during the execution of one of their schemes. This makes Polonius' death a tragedy.
The next member of Polonius' family to die is his daughter Ophelia. Ophelia's death is tragic because of her complete innocence in the situation. Some may argue that Polonius deserves .....

Shakespeare Sonnet12
Words: 934 - Pages: 4.... mind may be idle, time does not stand still for him. As we read on, you learn that the first line is significant because it creates a bridge to the next line, “the brave day sunk in hideous night”(L2). Again, we need to place emphasis on Shakespeare's choice of wording. Shakespeare uses the word sunk in order to illustrate how the dark night engulfs the day. What Shakespeare is doing is using the words “hideous night” and “sunk” to form a catalogue of images pertaining to decay and passing time. The brave day sinks deeper and deeper as time on the clock marches on. Time is destruction. “Whe .....

fire place would not come to his surprise.
The task of fulfilling the dreams of millions of children is not an easy
one. It requires many trusted helpers. These helpers include parents,
grandparents, brothers, sisters, and of course elves and reindeer. Reindeer play
an important role in the scheme of things. Without the famous Dasher, Dancer,
Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen or Rudolph, Santa would not have
any transportation. They fly faster than a speeding bullet, yet never seem to
miss a single home. Together, Santa, the elves, and the reindeer work to make .....

The Sheltering Sky
Words: 1095 - Pages: 4.... He should be a masculine individual, but definitely have a quiet, introspective side. I would like to see Harrison Ford or a similar actor play this part. Tunner should be portrayed with the right mix of good looks and charm combined with a devious underlying air which causes one to question his motives. Perhaps an actor such as Hank Azaria would be a good Tunner.
I would try to shoot as many scenes as possible on location in the Sahara. By doing this, the viewer can gain a sense of the openness and vastness of the desert without the help of Bowles’ descriptive wording. I would try hard to show the harshness of the heat and the b .....

Words: 406 - Pages: 2.... The speaker of the poem could either be male or female, who is in love with someone and has been with that person for a decade. The speaker is telling the one that he/she loves how the feelings have gone from just being infatuated with them to being “nourished” by them.

Following, is my paraphrase of the poem.
When we first met you were sharp and sweet
And when we kissed it burnt my mouth .....

Spotted Horses
Words: 1015 - Pages: 4.... to deepen and broaden and sharpen our awareness of life." Interpretive literature is not candy coated. It allows its readers to experience the trials and tribulations of life. By using graphically realistic plots and endings, which are consistent to those in real life, interpretive literature achieves a higher literary value than escape literature. Interpretive literature allows its reader too step out of the fantasy world they might be living in and focus on what the world is really about. One might say an interpretive story provides insight to understanding. Not only understanding of ourselves, but our neighbors, friends, fa .....
