.... will be and how the story is created in the process of philosophical events. Candide is heavily depended upon exaggeration; but it also introduces the contrasting device of understatement whereby something is declared by stating the negative of its opposite. In relation to it is euphemism, which it is used ironically with fine comic effect to advance the satire of injustice, crime, and folly. Caricature and parody, ways in which the author exaggerated details of one sort or another for the same purpose, are noticed evidently in the story. For instance, th .....

.... holy icon. According to the public, "never had a man spoken in so wise, so high, and so holy a spirit, as he… nor had inspiration ever breathed through mortal lips more evidently than it did through his" (167). Dimmesdale had risen through the ranks of the church and had the utmost respect of the people of Boston. Dimmesdale's "eloquence and religious fervor had already given the earnest of high eminence in his profession" (48). Hawthorne pointed out that Dimmesdale was a very influential and powerful speaker, whose soft spoken words, "affected them [the .....

.... makes it apparent that society in general values money and profit more than human life. He shows this by his portrayal of Keller. Keller ships out cracked cylinder heads, aware that in flight they will cause planes to crash, to save his business from being shut down. Furthermore, he goes on to allow the blame to fall on Steve, in order to save himself from going to jail, even though Steve was not the only one guilty. Keller tries to rationalize his actions by saying that he committed this heinous act for the benefit of his family- so that they will have money .....

.... might react to this situation: "He had to mathematically prove to himself that he would not run from a battle" (Crane 16). Henry faces doubts and has to make a conscious effort to believe he will not run. In addition, as Henry's regiment moves closer to the actual battlefields, soldiers running from the battle render information to the regiment. Henry's thoughts change after hearing the words of the fleeing soldiers. "He resolved to get a view of it, and then, he thought he might very likely run better than the best of them" (54). Henry assures himself that he w .....

.... This story included Endfield's description of Hyde which was quite disturbing. "He must be deformed somewhere, he gives a strong feeling of deformity, although I couldn't specify the point"(Stevenson,8-9). There is no pinpoint of what Endfield saw that was so disturbing but it was something about him that did not seem to be right. When Mr. Utterson himself came across meeting Mr. Hyde in person, he understood what his friend had told him. At first Hyde would not let Utterson see his face, but when he saw it he got a sense beyond words. "He must be .....

They got no family. They don’t belong no place.”(Steinbeck 13) George has been saving up money to buy a piece of land for Lennie and him to live on. He finally has enough money for the land when Candy decided to join them and use his money to help pay for the land. George’s dream died when Lennie died because without Lennie, George wou .....

.... would concentrate on the author and his state of mind, however, later critics focussed more on an analysis of the characters. A psychoanalytic interpretation of The Turn of the Screw can bring about many questions. Primarily those concerning the ghosts, the sanity of the governess and the goodness of the children. A psychoanalytic reading of the novel reveals that the governess is a mad sexual hysteric, which, in turn, leads to the ghosts being read as hallucinations or projections of her sexual fears brought about in hysteric fits. This has been proven to .....

.... him. This process includes making Huck go to school, teaching him various religious facts, and making him act in a way that the women find socially acceptable. Huck, who has never had to follow many rules in his life, finds the demands the women place upon him constraining and the life with them lonely. As a result, soon after he first moves in with them, he runs away. He soon comes back, but, even though he becomes somewhat comfortable with his new life as the months go by, Huck never really enjoys the life of manners, religion, and education that the Wi .....
