.... shelf” (5-6). This made his mother so upset that she could do nothing but frown. Finally, his father “waltzed” him on to bed. In “Those Winter Sundays” by Robert Hayden, the poet also relinquishes on a regular occurrence in his childhood. On Sunday mornings, just as any other morning, his father rises early and puts on his clothes in the cold darkness. He then goes out in the cold and splits fire wood with which he uses to start a fire in the house. After the entire house is warm he calls the rest of his family out of be .....

.... was addressing as "dearly beloved." In this way she brands her detached conscience with guilt. I call it her "detached conscience" because in order to go on with life Sethe needed to remove herself from her guilt. She removes herself so completely that her neighbors, already upset at her crime, isolated her because she seemed to feel no remorse for the awful deed. Sethe's stoic resolve continues until Denver loses her hearing, which was caused by Denver not being able to deal with hearing what her mother had done. Only when her mother's conscience manifes .....

.... in his time with his views on slavery and forgiveness of the South. Yet his death was the result of one man's refusal to accept what was once a proud and rich land reduced to tatters- left to ruin because of her failure to accept civil reform. Herman Melville's work in Moby Dick was considered a classic, yet Melville died a figure with lost prestige, poor and unaccepted. When he was laid to rest in 1891, he was remembered only as the author of entertaining novels of the South Seas. It was not until 1920s when his place in America's foremost writers was assur .....

.... prophecies, a messenger comes with the news that King Duncan is coming to spend the night at her castle. After the messenger has left, the first thing Lady Macbeth says is: “The raven himself is hoarse/ That croaks fatal entrance of Duncan/ Under my battlements”(1.5.45-47).

Here, Shakespeare is taking the idea of murder, and using the natural imagery of a raven in order to reveal the thoughts of killing Duncan. .....

.... are not to be trusted. Lear’s ‘monstrous” behaviour is greatly emphasised by the different language techniques that France uses, such as the use of the paradoxes and the rhyming couplets like “my chance” with “fair France” and “cold’st neglect” to “inflamed respect”. By using these methods, stress is put onto the point that is being made by France and therefore is more explicit to the audience. France also uses loaded verbs to describe Lear’s actions, including “cast” and .....

.... The show tries to get across to the audience that even though there are some people out there that are not right in the head, you yourself still have to be. Mike Brady, the father always gives out these lessons. For example when Marcia’s new boyfriend steals Greg’s phony playbook for the football game, Mike tells Greg that in actuality, Greg would win the game by cheating himself, unless he confessed to Marcia’s boyfriend and told him the truth. After doing so, Greg and his team prevailed as champions of that game. Although sends out lov .....

.... would love her even if "her breast were dun…." John Donne’s sonnet is quite personal as he is writing about his own beliefs but expressing publicly his views. Shakespeare’s sonnet is written for a wider audience as he is trying to get people to see his point of view. This is that the conventional blazon of the love sonnet is inaccurate and either ridiculous or impossible. The language used for each sonnet is both different and surprising. In Shakespeare’s sonnet the language is interesting because in a love sonnet the reader does not expect lan .....

As the quote says, Brutus would not allow Caesar to rise to power and then turn his back onto the people of Rome. After the assassination of Julius Caesar, Brutus talks to Antony about Caesar's death. "Our hearts you see not; they are pitiful; and pity to the general wrong of Rome..."(act 3, scene 1, ll.185-186). Brutus says that Antony cannot see their(members o .....
