.... are poor, that doesn't mean they appreciate help from others. In fact they are embarrassed to take charity. The Cunninghams are too proud to take anything without paying or working for it. "Your shamin' him, Miss Caroline. Walter hasn't got a quarter at home to bring you, and you can't use any stovewood." (21) When Miss Caroline offers the money to Walter, Scout quickly steps in, trying to save her from an embarrassing moment. The Cunningham's financial situation is hard enough for Walter. He no doubt feels as if it's his fault, he has let the family down .....

.... It is no wonder that the three American explorers--Terry, Jeff and Van --who stumble on Herland are shocked and confused. Before they arrive, they joke about the mythical land, assuming that there must be men it, since women could not possibly cooperate well enough, or be competent enough, to run a country. When they see how successfully Herland is run, only one of them, Van, praises its all female population as a group of exemplary human beings whose behavior all persons, male as well as female, should se .....

.... think of tramps as being dangerous. About that Orwell says: "Quite apart from experience, one can say a priori that very few tramps are dangerous, because if they were dangerous they would be treated accordingly. A casual ward will often admit a hundred tramps in one night, and these are handled by a staff of at most three porters. A hundred ruffians could not be controlled by three unarmed men. Indeed, when one sees how ramps let themselves be bullied by the work house officials, it is obvious that they are the most docile, broken-spirited creatures imagi .....

.... felt by Amy for Yanko. The general population of Brenzett treats Yanko an escaped lunatic when he is first spotted in the seaside town. He is whipped, stoned and beaten by many of the residents. In addition, he was captured and caged like a wild animal. He is described as a "drunk", "tramp", and "creature". He is very different from the usual Englishman and is treated as such. He is segregated and is forced to work for Mr. Swaffer. However, one person sees through the differences. Amy, perhaps because of her stupidity or an ability to feel for Yanko, does not .....

.... can revert to examine any predicament he might find himself in: "They went off, and I got aboard the raft, feeling bad and low…Then I thought a minute, and says to myself, hold on,- s'pose you'd a done right and give Jim up; would you felt better than you do now? No, says I, I'd feel bad…" (p.127). Only a few weeks with Jim and still feeling great ambivalence, Huck returns to the river to think. Twain tries here to tell the reader how strong the "mob" really is, and only when totally alone is Huck able to make the morally correct decision. The natural flowing and .....

.... mutinies against his own religion. Through all these characters’ actions, Hawthorne shows us why the Puritan society was in disarray. He agrees with Thoreau and Twain in that society is corrupt and that society is the problem. However, he seems to put more blame on the individual than on the masses. Hester and her daughter, of course, were not actually Puritans, but Hawthorne is just using them as an example of how no society will ever remain “pure” because it is impossible for the people within the society to remain pure. This is a very dark and pessimistic vi .....

.... effect of the play but also makes the audience think of the serious things of life. Oscar Wilde begins with a joke in the title that is not only a piece of frivolity. It concerns the problem of recognising and defining human identity. The use of earnest and Earnest is a pun, which makes the title not only more comic, but also leads to a paradox. The farce in The Importance of Being Earnest consists in the trifle that it is important not only to be earnest by nature but to have the name Earnest too. Jack realizes "the vital Importance of Being Earnest"(53) not t .....

.... Indians didn't care about money only the well being of each other. When they found out kino's baby is stung by a scorpion and needs help from a doctor the villagers go to the doctor's house to ask for his assistants. When the priest heard the news of the new found fortune of Kino he wondered what the pearl would be worth to him and his church, he tried to remember whether or not he had baptized Kino's baby or even married them. The priest didn't do neither of these things because kino didn't' have any money and the priest would only do it for money. Juana at .....
