.... Odysseus during the long battles of Troy. Both heroes showed extreme courage in the face of danger and neither shied from doing what was necessary to complete their quest. Both men were also very modest and were able to except help when needed, either form gods or from other mortals. Jason did not hesitate to ask for help from the princess Medea. Odysseus accepted help from a simple sheep herder in order to reclaim his home. Although these two heroes had similar adventures and shared similar qualities, they were very different. The first difference we notice between these two heroes is their lineage. Like most Greek heroes, Jaso .....

.... she was so depressed it drove her insane. And her premonitions haunted her. I felt so sorry for her. First her family was split apart, after that she stars seeing fire, then she got beat for screaming fire and they tied her up, if they would’ve taken her to the hospital she would’ve been killed. What as freaky was how she could see that there were big flames and fires in their near destiny. Eliezer’s Father never showed any emotion until their town was effects by the Nazis. He was strength for the Jewish community. He helped everyone prepare to be evacuated. He was a leader and he helped him neighbors and friends as much as h .....

.... story would have no meaning and would just be about a mad man. However, with Wolfe's exquisite characterization, the reader find outs how an innocent god fearing man can turn violent. Overall, Wolfe's characterization is key to the short stories meaning. Outstanding tone and mood choice also help show the truth about the weak human sole. First, the Wolfe's informal tone of the story is significant. I believe Wolfe's tone help set up the readers for the shock of what Dick does. However, the tone the author sets is important because of the shock we get, we also see how fragile the human sole is and how it can easily change. In this case, .....

.... who studies the man and his words, exercises poor judgement in dismissing both. In Act I, Scene 2 of Julius Caesar, a Soothsayer calls out from the crowd to Julius Caesar, warning him to “Beware of the Ides of March!� (Line 21). Caesar asks the Soothsayer to come forward and repeat the warning again and decides, “He is a dreamer, let us leave him� (Line 29). Caesar’s extreme vanity leads him to believe that he is absolutely secure from attack by mere humans. Brutus repeats the fortuneteller’s warning, but Caesar ignores him as well. The Soothsayer’s warning to Caesar is one of the first of many ironies that pervade the play .....

.... his servant Grumio about knocking on the gate (I.ii.5-43). I see this exchange as demonstration of his enjoyment of verbal sport, a good example of Petruchio's sense of humor and his appreciation of things non-conventional. Though Petruchio may not agree with what society has determined to be proper and dignified, he is aware of the importance of appearing to conform. In what he says to Hortensio, I feel he is simply extending this sport and humor into the ironic. It is in Hortensio's description of Kate that I believe Petruchio's interest is captured. Hortensio describes Kate (I.ii.85-89) as wealthy, young, beautiful, properly brought up .....

.... her brothers place. Comfort and edible meals are a top priority at this stage with regard to Gregor. She "now considers herself an expert in Gregor's affairs." The intensity with which she performs her duties is borderline neurotic. When Mrs. Samsa tries to strip her of cleaning duties Grete "burst into a storm of weeping"(p.237). At this stage Greta is learning to set her emotions into action. The stress of Gregor's condition is taking a major toll on Grete. She has gone from a life of comfort to one of poverty and shame. This once liquid soul is now taking form. Grete is realistic and confident in the fact that, "if this were Gregor, he .....

.... deed to all his land to the deceitful . The other comic elements such as the unmasking of the villain and the happy ending are also present in . It is in the duality of Orgon, who is a believing and devoted subject, and , the manipulating hypocrite. Moliere takes his shot at the extremes of enthusiastic belief. plays the role of a man whose greedy actions are cloaked by a mask of overwhelming piety, modesty and religious passion. Orgon is the head of a household who has taken in, and given him shelter and food. Everyone in the family, except Orogon’s mother, knows that is a fake. In this play Moliere uses Cleante to emphasize .....

.... into a role of passive consumers. They do not have to work anymore; the only really working jobs are either supervisors in industry or agriculture, or reconstruction and restoration groups, or soldiers. But supervisors do not have any work; reconstruction and restoration workers are too numerous to work really; and soldiers are bullied cruelly. The majority of population is bored since they have everything they need, all their homework is done by automatons and machines, and their only job is entertainment. Dr Paul Proteus lives in the city of Ilium, N.Y. The city is divided into three major parts: the managers and engineers are in the n .....

.... Atticus have the ability to change their ways in order for people to respect them, unlike Tom Robinson, who is stereotyped as a mutant to the town of Mayberry simply because he is black. For example people are preaching to Scout that she should act like a typical girl. Atticus is stereotyped as a traitor to his people, the white race, because he stands up for a black man, Tom Robinson, who is accused of raping a young woman. Last but not least, Tom Robinson is stereotyped as being a flaw in the human race because he is black. When he is accused of committing a rape, he is not given a fair trial, due to the fact that he is an African-Amer .....

.... thinking of the mysterious wind that blows on the Mariner, without any awareness of the wind as a Biblical symbol of the Holy Spirit. Coleridge could also not associate the murder of the albatross with the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The reader is told that the Polar Spirit "loved the bird that loved the man who shot him with his bow." It is doubtful that someone with Coleridge’s Christian background and faith could fail to see here an analogy with God who loved his son who loved the men that killed him (Gardner 169). Another example of symbolism is the fact that the albatross is hung around the Mariner’s neck like a crucifix. .....
