... understand and share a human experience of suffering and resistance.) Steinbeck shows us that his characters, as well as all people must endure suffering as human beings. Humans suffer due to many factors. Religious suffering is one factor which is self imposed. (When we first see Casy he is explaining to Tom Joad how he left preaching, not merely because of the lusts that plagued him, but because religious faith as he knew it seemed to set up codes of behavior which denied human nature its proper and full expression) Religious suffering is perhaps epitomized in Jesus Christ, and Joseph Fontenrose bel ...

Animal Farm Book Report
Number of Words: 2085 / Number of Pages: 8
... Mr. Jones takes back over. This is a
style analysis of Animal Farm.
Diction, language and imagery are three important
elements in a style analysis. A word choice that
is used a lot in the novel is "rebellion".
Rebellion is a word used instead of a revolution
or a war. Another word that is used a lot in the
novel is "comrade". Comrade means an intimate
friend or associate. Comrade is used in that form
in the novel, instead of saying that someone was
their friend the animals called him their comrade.
"’No, comrades, a thousand times no!’"(p. 28),
that quote was used when one of the animals is ...

... morals and ethics they came from, because they are clouded by smoke. Take for instance the wall-sized televisions. This became the populace’s way of interacting with others with out physically interacting with them. People on TV were your “family”, who would keep you company and be your “friend”. Still, a place where books were burned and houses were supposedly “fireproof”, you have to admit this world is out of whack. If we look at Montag’s wife for instance, we see how entrenched people have become into just being happy, and not carrying for what ...

... at exploiting parishioners' guilt for
his financial gain. He sold them various “relics” that supposedly cured
ailments ranging from sick cattle to jealousy. And if the relics didn't
seem to work, it was obviously because of the sinful man or woman who
purchased them, and no fault of the Pardoner. He had a few lines he would
routinely say to his potential customers;
“Good men and women, here's a word of of warning:
If there is anyone in the church this morning
Guilty of sin, so far beyond expression
Horrible, that he dare not make co ...

Comparison Of Brave New World
Number of Words: 624 / Number of Pages: 3
... discrimination. Racism is a less specific form of genoism, and although such discrimination is outlawed, the laws are unenforceable because in this dystopian society, as it is in BNW, one's "genetic quotient" is known from birth. The underclass people of this world are limited but aware of their social status and they are not particularly happy with it. With the BNW, the lower castes seem to be (they are made to believe so) aware but they are conditioned to like their "light,...childishly simple" work. (p.204 BNW)
Another satirical message explored in both works in that of publicity. Our societ ...

... abandon them at an island of the Marquesas with another member of the crew. On this island they ran into a group of cannibals that, instead of harming them, would take them in.

Macbeth Essay On Good Behavior

... be
What thou art promise'd: yet do I fear thy nature,
It is too full o' the milk of human kindness
To catch the nearest way. Thou wouldst be great,
Art not without ambition…(I.V.15-19)
This shows how little Lady Macbeth cares about her husband's wishes. This is very ironic since normally it is the man who does not ask for approval. Even when Macbeth disagrees to her plan, Lady Macbeth starts taunting her husband and calls him a coward: "…Art thou afeared/To be the same in thine own act and valour/As thou art in desire?…"(I.VII.39-41) This decision is Lady Macbeth's downfall as s ...
