... a cotton gin. Atticus expanded on this point by unexpectedly throwing a ball at Tom Robinson. Tom’s only reaction was to catch the ball with his right arm. This point is connected to Heck Tate’s testimony in telling the court that the right side of Mayella’s face had been severely bruised. A left-handed person would logically have inflicted this injury. Tom’s left hand is shriveled and totally useless. On the other side of the coin, Atticus shows the court that Mr. Ewell is not ambidextrous but is only right-handed. A second testimony that supports the opposite of the verdict, was the ...

... the role as hero. Women were usually only minor characters who are often not even named. Second of all you had to be a man of noble birth. Meaning that the hero had to be either a king, prince, knight or some other high-ranking person in society. Beowulf satisfies all of these requirements. He is the nephew of the king of the Geats, and son of a great warrior. As was common in literature up until recently, Beowulf’s mother was not named as well as Grendel’s mother. The slave character was not named too, which in my mind would indicate that women had little more status than slaves or property during ...

... woman’s understanding of her being. The men mainly Robert and Leonce are also the contributors in the metamorphosis of Edna. Adele Ratignolle is Edna's close friend and confidante, but the two women are nothing alike.
