.... it will make him look good in front of Desdemona. Iago needs to make Cassio suffer and manipulates Roderigo to do it by playing on Roderigo’s desire for Desdemona. Iago also uses Roderigo for his money as well as helping his evil plans, “ Roderigo: I am changed: I’ll go sell all my land. Exit. Iago: Thus do I ever make my fool my purse; For I mine own gain’d knowledge should profane, If I would time expend with such a snipe, But for my sport and profit. “ (Pg. 665) Simply put Iago explains that if it wasn’t for his plans and his desir .....

.... more than he did. "He weighed a hundred and fifty pounds, a galling ten pounds more than I did..." (Gene Pg. 8) Because Gene mentioned those facts, the reader can tell that even having a slight height and weight advantage or disadvantage to Finny were important to him. What people, especially Finny, thought about him worried him. "...I would have lost face with Phineas, and that would have been unthinkable." (Gene Pg. 26) Later in the novel, when Finny wanted to wear a pink shirt to school, Gene told him it would make him look like a "fairy". "Pink! It makes .....

.... what seems to be enjoyable, even celebratory occasions. However, I believe the major similarity lies in the fact that these many pleasant details create a facade within each story. The reader is then left ill-prepared when the shocking, brutally violent, ritualistic traditions are exposed. Children are an important focus in both stories. Jackson makes it easy for us to imagine their "boisterous play"(para 2), and Le Guin writes "their high calls rising like swallows' crossing flights over the music and the singing"(para1). I see these children being used .....

.... Crucible is a play that tells the story of the famous witchcraft trail in Salem Massachusetts. In the story Abigail William’s, who is the orphaned niece of the towns’ minister, Reverend Parris, is the main person who accuses people of sending their spirits on her and the other girls. What starts as children dancing in the woods, leads to the accusation and execution of many innocent people for witchcraft. The two works of literature have very similar qualities including setting, conflict, and general aspects of the characters. There ar .....

.... lives, but do the lives of others belong to us as well? Do we have the right to decide the kind of lives others can or cannot live? We find someone guilty of murder and sentence him to death, does that not make murderers out of ourselves? Can justice justify our acts? Those who assist in the death penalty are they not partners in crime? Is the death penalty a "Cruel and Unusual" punishment or is it now a necessary tool in the war on crime? With the increase in crime and violence in our society, how does the death penalty affect a North American family. History o .....

.... upset: “My only love, sprung from my only hate.” (I.V.139), but the Nurse doesn’t think about this. She doesn’t see the trouble that has started.

.... that supposedly Elizabeth had hidden at her house, that no one has seen. But to read Miller, one must be more perceptive, and in examining this quote by Parris, there is another meaning behind it. As most know of the Salem witch trials, they specifically know the unjust and misled court system that was used to accuse the witches. The words uttered from Parris’ mouth at that instance are so contradictory of the court and ironic that from a reader’s standpoint, one is mixed between the emotion of laughter and tears. For the knowledge of the witch tr .....

.... post. The ghost says nothing to them and is perceived with fear and apprehension; "it harrows me with fear and wonder". It is not until the appearance of Hamlet that the ghost speaks, and only then after Horatio has expressed his fears about Hamlet following it, "What if it tempt you toward the flood, my lord, or to the dreadful summit of the cliff". This illustrates how Horatio is concerned for Hamlet's well being. The conversation between the ghost and Hamlet serves as a catalyst for Hamlet's later actions and provides insight into Hamlet's charact .....
