.... home from Korea, Silver's father left his mother and remarried, and Jack's father lived in Connecticut. A boy learns a lot from just being around his father. He learns what a man is and how they should act, whether it's good or bad. These three boys never had that experience from a father on a regular basis. Everything that they learned at home, they learned from their mother. By no fault of their mothers, the three boys developed a sensitive feminine side. Deep down, almost subconsciously, they were all aware of their sensitivity, which made them feel w .....

.... throughout the novel to give a sense of authenticity is diction. Although the members of the Osborne family speak properly, the farm hands (who were, up until a short time before the novel, slaves), speak in a southern dialect which portrays them as uneducated. A good example of this is when Buddy pleads with Porter to, “Keep yo head down, Sambo! For God’s sake, keep yo head down an be stiller’n you ever been in yo life befo!” The same words are used as would be used by an educated person, only they are shortened or run together. The vivid imagery used th .....

.... wax and feathers so that he and his son could escape. When Icarus flew too high -- too near the sun -- in spite of his father's warnings, his wings melted, and he fell into the sea and drowned. His more cautious father flew to safety (World Book 3). By using this myth in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (Portrait of the Artist), Joyce succeeds in giving definitive treatment to an archetype that was well established long before the twentieth century (Beebe 163). The Daedalus myth gives a basic structure to Portrait of the Artist. From the beginning, St .....

.... who showed the largest amount of courage. He showed courage when he shot the dog. He showed courage in not fighting when it seemed to be the only thing to do. But, first and foremost, he showed courage in taking the Robinson case. Because “even though you're beaten 100 years before you started is no reason not to do something”. This is one of the things that Atticus lives by. Scout also has courage, but in a different way. She has shown courage in many situations, such as when she has stood up for her brother, and also when she hasn't. Overall, Scout has just as much courage as any of the adults, but it i .....

.... those who believed that all were equal and that all had souls that were to be treated with compassion, and those who argued that God had created them superior to all blacks. Keep in mind that Mrs. Stowe was living through all of what is in her story. So while providing social, political, and religious commentary, she also spatters her work with racism and subtle bigotry that would not be found in most modern writing. Uncle Tom's Cabin is a novel about how trust in God can conquer great obstacles, including the pain of slavery. The main character shows thi .....

.... of democratic Socialism. (Zwerdling, 20). Lenin became leader and teacher of the working class in Russia, and their determination to struggle against capitalism.
