.... found her true love. But opposite of what she wants, Homer is a homosexual: ¡§¡Khe liked men, and it was known that he drank with the younger men in the Elks¡¦ Club --- that he was not a marrying man¡¨ (¡§A Rose for Emily¡¨, 126). To keep him with her forever, Miss Emily chooses to murder Homer. ¡§Then we noticed that in the second pillow was the indentation of a head. One of us lifted something from it, and learning forward, we saw a long strand of iron-gray hair¡¨ (¡§A Rose for Emily¡¨, 130), Faulkner implies that Miss Emily actually sleeps with the corpse. She must love Homer deeply, to endure the rotten smell an .....

.... At the beginning of the play, Macbeth is portrayed as a brave, selfless warrior - competent and loyal to his lord Duncan. He defends Duncan by killing Macdonwald and the forces of the traitorous Thane of Cawdor. He performs these acts not because he enjoys slaughtering people, but because he is addicted to the fame, royal favor, and titles such as ¡§valor¡¦s minion¡¨ (Shakespeare, 13) and ¡§Bellona¡¦s bridegroom¡¨ (Shakespeare, 15). No doubt he also rejoices in the success that crowns his efforts in battle. Macbeth remains an honorable gentleman until he begins to covet the kingship. He is not a criminal and has no crimi .....

.... so-called religious person is really about. Chaucer's initial introduction to the Prioress is as follows: "There was also a nun, a prioress, Who, in her smiling, modest was and coy; Her greatest oath was but "By Saint Eloy!" And she was known as Madam Eglantine. Full well she sang the services divine," (118) At first, one would think that Chaucer's description will be as flattering as that of the knight but soon enough we see the total opposite because at first Chaucer describes her as a delicate and well-mannered woman. "At table she had been well taught withal, And never from her lips let morsels fall, Nor dipped her fingers deep in sauce .....

.... of rain. Getting this cat is important to her because she empathizes with the it. "It isn’t any fun to be a poor kitty out in the rain."(57) Before she even has a chance to step into the rain, the hotel keeper has sent out the maid with an umbrella to shield her from getting wet, showing the reader he cares. As she walks with the maid holding the umbrella over them, she is suddenly disappointed to see the cat is gone. When the maid finds out what she was looking for she laughs. The wife is not at all amused, "Oh I wanted it so much. I wanted a kitty."(57) She is feeling so sad and depressed making us wonder why .....

.... in the apple battle (he was beat by flying fruit for god's sake!!!) and then again in the cave. In the cave Unferth begs Grendel to take his life but Grendel gives him fate worse than death. Grendel leaves him alive and impotent. Unferth knows that he cannot kill Grendel yet he cannot be a martyr to Herot either. All during the first year of Grendel's siege, the smell of apples fresh in the air, Unferth tries to be the Grendel's martyr. Oh the heroic Unferth who died trying to save the people of Herot. Unfortunately he never got to die, not even dressed up as a goat, a pig or an elderly women. This continuing life of impotence lead Un .....

.... of graphic scenes. Some of these episodes would include Huck faking his own death and Jim finding Pap's dead body lying in a boat. These analysts argue that children should be forbidden to read the publication. In this day and age, High schoolers should be able to handle the material offered in Twain's timeless edition. Many commentators protest that Huck Finn is pointless and without purpose. This accusation is unsuitable, due to the accuracy of the dialects, as well as the historical ideas and morals of society that can just as well be found in an American history book. Mark Twain stated in the introduction of the book that rea .....

.... way that seems not to admit any acceptable forms. When looking at good and bad company, Aristotle considers it entirely in terms of “entertaining conversation,� such as humor, wit, or ridicule. He argues that “adaptability� in the way we talk to people is desirable, since there is a time and a place for everything. The paragraph begins with indirect definitions of two extremes of humor, the buffoon and the humorless person. A buffoon would rather be a fool and hurt people’s feelings than “fail to raise a laugh�. A man who never cracks a joke is also falling short of the appropriate behavior, which is the gentleman’s abil .....

.... quickly. This first bout with sexuality was certainly a grotesque one, and one which, perhaps, helped fortify his resolve not to experiment with sex for years to come. Haze reacted to the incident on different levels. Before watching the "show," he was filled with curiosity. So badly he wanted to view this "EXclusive" show. After glancing at the body, he first thought that it was a skinned animal. When he realized what it was, he at once left the tent, ashamed, and perhaps frightened of the object before his eyes. Hazel’s reaction was not unnatural. The sight with which he was confronted would invoke both fear and embarassment within mos .....

.... We also learn that he intends to go unpunished for this act of vengeance. The narrator informs us that he is going to continue to smile in Fortunato’s face, but use the pride his victim has in wine to lure him into the catacombs to taste some of his non- existent amontillado. At this point, the reader knows the conflict will be one of man against man. It is an external struggle because Fortunato and Montresor are in a life and death fight. However, the conflict is largely internal, because Montresor has a fierce hatred that Fortunato is unaware of. The narrative hook seems to occur when Fortunato follows Montresor i .....

.... so dependent upon luxuries, bad things can happen. The luxury becomes more important than friends and sometimes even family members. An unfavorable reputation develops for this person and sometimes we say that the person's life revolves around his luxuries. Personally, I have been there and experienced this kind of stupor or addiction to a possession of mine. I met Denny Hippchen and Aaron Steinmetz during my first year at Shasta High School and these two young men awakened my interest in computers. A computer has been around me ever since. You could call it a luxury but now I am so used to using the computer that it is now a nece .....
