.... the god of his native island Yojo. Even though this god was not one of Christian influence, the element of worship to a higher power shows that he knew that he was not alone on this earth, that there is a force stronger than man which sustains life. Finally, when he and Ishmael sign aboard the Pequod, Bildad and Peleg give Queequeg a hard time because he is not a Christian, as was appropriate at the time. However, Queequeg has faith in himself and shows the men that he is an equal to all the Christian sailors by showing them his talents in the field of harpooni .....

.... first hand, and saw with his own eyes how horrible the war could be. After he finished fighting in the war, he wrote stories. In them he tried to make people realize that war was bad. I think that Ambrose Bierce described the setting and the time period very accurately. By reading his story I could picture the scene very accurately. He explained that the sun was shining, and that it was autumn. Because it was autumn it was not too hot or too cold. He also described Carter’s location very well. From what I read Carter was on a cliff like thing, and was .....

.... When Janie asked about love, she was told that marriage makes love and she will find love after she marries Logan. Nanny believed that love was second to stability and security. Only after those first two criteria were satisfied then and only then could one experience love. Nanny felt that a young girl like Janie was too young to make decisions for herself, so when she caught Janie exploring her womanhood Nanny felt that she needed to marry Janie as quickly as possible so that she could find love in a safe a secure environment. Nanny has her own ideals when it .....

.... do?" My method of attacking the question, how would the three main characters from Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter see the whiteness of the whale?, is going to be a comparison to Melville's characters. The first comparison is between Hester Prynne and Ishmael. Hester Prynne is a brave lady who faces her sin, as seen in her ability to face severe ridicule on the scaffold. Ishmael is a brave young man who handles any conflict with a strong will, as seen in his agreement to sign onto a whaling ship without knowing the captain. It is also seen in his ability to .....

.... adultery, and finalized that doom when she concealed Chillingsworth’s identity from Dimmesdale. The effects these events had were the separation from her society, her lover, her husband, her child, and her own best self. She did it all in the name of sanctity, for true love, and she paid the price. Dimmesdale was changed by the affair in a way that “ [he] grew emaciated; his voice, though still rich and sweet had a [tone] of decay.” As a believing Puritan, Dimmesdale saw himself as “predestined” for damnation. Hawthorne exp .....

.... Marianne’s overzealous inquiries concerning the appearance of Norland. Elinor also mentions that it is probably rather gloomy and untidy because of the dead leaves that cover the woods and walks. This prompts and even more dramatic exclamation from Marianne: “‘Oh!’ cried Marianne, ‘with what transporting sensations have I formerly seen them fall!’” (p. 77). In this line, and in those that follow, it seems that Marianne gets carried away with her appreciation of the dead leaves on the ground. In the description of them as inspiring “transporting sensations” in h .....

.... that the sanatorium has to be taken over by male nurses because of the two murders by the two physicists. During the course of the play the personal and physical change is perceptible. Both the main characters and the environment are changing. For an example in act two, Herbert Georg Beutler alias Sir Isaac Newton turns out to be a long lost world famous physicist Alex Jasper Kilton who discovered the "Theory of Equivalents" also Albert Einstein alias Ernst Heinrich Ernesti is the also long lost discoverer of the "Eislereffect" Joseph Eisler. The most notic .....

.... ways because of the way he thought but not really in the way he acted he wasn’t overly strong or courageous like the typical stereotype we have a hero to look like . Nick was more of a modern day hero in his own right . Gatsby on the other hand although not a hero in the sense of a physically strong man who saves the lives of distressed people . But he is a hero more in the sense that he is totally devoted to one woman most of his life . Then when it looks as if she is going to get into trouble for the death of Mrytle after she hit her with Gatsby’ .....
