The Awakening
Number of words: 1206 - Number of pages: 5

.... on them. Because of the time she lived in, Edna felt oppressed just because she was a woman. Being a married woman and a mother made her feel even more tied down. By looking at the relationship between Edna and her husband, Leonce, we see that men treated women as if they were nothing more than possessions or property. They had no respect for their wives, mothers, or even their daughters as they constantly treated them like housemaids who were there to answer to their every call. Even Edna's father thinks that his daughter is her husband's property. We see th .....

.... in Jefferson. When she does, Anse appears obsessed with burying her there. Even after Addie had been dead over a week, and all of the bridges to Jefferson are washed out, he is still determined to get to Jefferson. Is Anse sincere in wanting to fulfill his promise to Addie, or is he driven by another motive? Anse plays "to perfection the role of the grief-stricken widower" (Bleikasten 84) while secretly thinking only of getting another wife and false teeth in Jefferson. When it becomes necessary to drive the wagon across the river, he proves himself to be undeni .....


The Sound And The Fury: Summary
Number of words: 694 - Number of pages: 3

.... Benjy's mind. Unfortunately for the reader, Benjy is mentally incapable of clear thought. In other words, this section of the book appears to be a jumbled mess of sounds and senses at first glance. However, this section can be "translated" to make some kind of sense. Once this happens, the story does make sense and does serve a purpose. The main conflict of the story revolves around Caddy's promiscuity. Each character takes some position regarding this fact. Benjy, as retarded as he is, is the only one capable of telling an unbiased version of the story. .....

.... hair, hazel eyes, a thin and delicate nose, and a small chin to make her face look heart shaped. Acoording to the town Cathy lived, Cathy had a scent of sweetness, but that is just what Cathy wanted the town to see and think when Cathy planned her kill. On page 114-115, "The fire broke out... the Ames house went up like a rocket... Enough remained of Mr. and Mrs. Ames to make sure there were two bodies."

.... “Oh Father in heaven – if thou art still my father – what is this being which I have brought into the world” (Hawthorne 89)?

Homesteading By Percy Wollaston
Number of words: 1442 - Number of pages: 6

.... often dryly funny, it has the ring of experience itself insisting of making itself manifest in writing. It tells the story of what now must seem a tragic episode in American history, but it tells it with artful reticence, withholding the tragedy, yet letting it impinge, by suggestion, on the narrative." This quote is very true. The book was very straight forward. There was not much humor, but it sure made the reader feel the frustrating times of the early twentieth century. Percy Wollaston was the main character in the book. It was written from his .....


Understanding Masculine Psychology
Number of words: 633 - Number of pages: 3

.... that is individuation process (process of integration and becoming whole), prematurely, can’t handle it doesn’t see it through, and is wounded by it (Johnson 9).” Johnson’s idea is somewhat universal; the majority of men can find a moment where the innocent veil of boyhood was pierced, or an event in that the ease of being gives way to struggle and conflict. In this sense, “all men are Fisher Kings. Every boy has naively blundered into something that was too big for him, gotten halfway through, realized that he couldn’t handle it, and collapsed. Then he .....
