These are the people who did not ever meet or see the child but realize what kind of a tragedy this death was. Ransom makes a statement at the end of the first paragraph "Nor some of the world of outer dark, like me". This is a strong statement for the simple fact that this shows how much of the town, city, world is affected by one child's death. This next paragraph is by far the harshest.

... control or could she have fought her way out of her circumstances? Better yet, could Hardy have written her out of her troubles or did his fatalistic approach to the novel force him to ultimately sacrifice poor Tess?

Fatalism is defined in Websters Dictionary as "the doctrine that all things take place by inevitable necessity" (175). Fatalism is the idea that all actions are controlled by Fate, a primitive force that exists independent o ...

... not consciously use deictic expressions, as well as the adressee usually understands the utterance immediately (meaning that the adressee does not need much time to think about an utterance before understanding the message).

If, for example, a person tells a story and forgets to give the essential information a deictic term refers to, we will ...

Therefore, before you can continue to analyze, one has to make the assumption that this is strictly a fictional work and Swift had no intention of pursuing his proposal any further. One of the other voices th ...

... "The "old-timer" knows the dangers, and the dog does too-- but "the man" lacks both in experience and intuition. Either one might have helped save him" (p.221). Since the man was arrogant to the wild, he was slow to recognize the significance of the dropping temperatures. The cold, beginning to set in, soon affects three major things that eventually lead to his death. It affects his ability to think clearly, his awareness and his memory. The first area which is affected by the cold is the mans memory. This is shown when the man sits down for lunch, removes his mittens and unzipped his jacket. "The action consume ...
