... by both are hard for the reader to believe. Although very entertaining, they are so farfetched that one would find it difficult to consider as true.

... the law. Bob Ewell accused Tom of beating and raping his daughter and only the black families and a handful of whites (including Atticus) seem to believe in his innocence.

"To begin with, this case should never have c ...

He handled the injustice with a manner reserved only for gentlemen, which is a good description of what he really was. The third person to suffer injustice in the novel was Boo Radley. Many ac ...

... a minister. However, Bronte’s book is not only a breakthrough to literature in these ways. The narration of the story is also very unique and divergent because there are multiple narrators. Bronte’s character Lockwood is used to narrate the introductory and concluding sections of the novel whereas Nelly Dean narrates most of the storyline. It’s interesting that Nelly Dean is used because of her biased opinions. In addition, the structure of Wuthering Heights displays a uniqueness. Just as Elizabethan plays have five acts, Wuthering Heights is composed of two “acts,” the times befo ...

... Chaucer describes Chaunticleer in many different ways. One of them is his language. Chaunticleer's language is that of a scholar. He quotes many different scriptures in a conversation with Pertelote, such as, Saint Kenelm, Daniel and Joseph (from the bible), and Croesus.

He may have been making all the stories up in order to win the argument with Pertelote, but, this seems unlikely because he does not take heed to his own advice and stay away from the fox that encounters him later. He is educated enough to know ...

... Now I may be an uneducated man, but if I was to convict anyone of witchcraft, it would definitely be those girls. The people you've decided to convict and hang, have either been, poor farmers, beggers, nonbelievers or people that were not know well. If you would have at least taken a couple minutes or even in hour to hear a these people had say, then maybe you would have realized, that these girls are just lying.

... and the other girls by an old maid who worked for the convent. In the fine pages of those books, Emma read of parted lovers, excitement, romance, knights in armor, and ladies in white satin dresses. These novels painted a world where palm trees and pine trees lived together, where lions and tigers roamed the forest, with Roman Ruins surrounded by virgin forests and lakes full of swans. "And the shaded oil-lamp . . . lit up all these pictures of the world, which flowed by on after another, in the silence of the dormitory, to the distant sound of a late cab somewhere still rolling along the boulevards."
