... by sucking all the venom out, but it didn't work. Jauna took the baby to the doctor, and he refused to see them. "Have I nothing better to do then cure insect bites for little Indians? Im not a veterinarian."(11) When the doctor found out that they had the pearl he was able to see them. "He's a client of mine I'm treating his baby for a scorpion sting."(22) At their house he said that the baby was getting worse, so he gave the baby medicine which was actually poison. He came back an hour later. The doctor said he cured the baby but really he poisoned the baby then he cured him so he could get money. Kino ...

... out of the ordinary if he thinks the outcome will help someone he cares for. For example, when he says "In one respect I'll thy assistant be; for this alliance may so happy prove, to turn your households rancour to pure love."(Act 2, Scene 3), he is saying that the only reason he will marry Romeo and Juliet is because he hopes that the marriage will end the hostilities between the two houses. When he says "Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift, and hither shall he come; and he and I shall watch thy waking, and that very night shall Romeo bear thee to Mantua." (Act 4, Scene 1), he tells Juliet how everything ...

... men weren't hounded by their inner voices of shame. He went along in life not taking anything from it to learn and to prosper as a good person. After graduating law school, he sowed "his wild oats", as Tolstoy puts it, among an aristocratic society. He moved up in rank and earned a raise in salary. This new power, although not taken advantage of, was accessible in Ilyitch's eyes, and hence the mere thought of corruption existed as a tool for possible future use. He married, not because of love, but because he felt it would be an asset to him. This lack of self value is an example of ignorance that produces a p ...

... the novel by examples of real warfare. This novel takes place during World War II in the private prep school for boys' called the Devon School. Here we can see that they are involved in the war through many things. Most of the boys there are always talking about the war and about headlines that discuss the bombings in central Europe. Most of them realize that there is a war going on and that it is a huge problem, however, they do think of it as an adventure in itself. "'I'm giving it up, I'm going to enlist. Tomorrow.' I felt a thrill when he said it. This was the logical climax of the whole misbegotten day, ...

... in his life and he flees to these woods to reflect on his life. The woods that Frost illustrates are a representation of heaven. Although the man is turning to God for guidance, he is neither in nor near a church. Even still, he believes his location is irrelevant to God, who ultimately listens no matter what. In the second stanza, the horse is only a figment of his imagination. This "horse" is, in actuality, the speaker's own consciousness, a moment that we create something to relive the stress of our deepest emotions. It acts as an internal censor to keep us close to sanity, the value of life, a ...

In 1894 he began to write science-fiction stories. -James Gunn Wells vision of the future, with its troglodytic Morlocks descended from the working class of his day and the pretty but helpless Eloi devolved from the leisure class, may seem antiquated political theory. It emerged out of the concern for social justice that drew Wells to the Fabian Society and inspired much of his later writing, but time has not dimmed the fascination of the situation and the horror of the imagery. The Time Machine brou ...

... studies the man and his words, exercises poor judgement in dismissing both. In Act I, Scene 2 of Julius Caesar, a Soothsayer calls out from the crowd to Julius Caesar, warning him to “Beware of the Ides of March!� (Line 21). Caesar asks the Soothsayer to come forward and repeat the warning again and decides, “He is a dreamer, let us leave him� (Line 29). Caesar’s extreme vanity leads him to believe that he is absolutely secure from attack by mere humans. Brutus repeats the fortuneteller’s warning, but Caesar ignores him as well. The Soothsayer’s warning to Caesar is one of the first of many ironies t ...

The party has created many rules and laws, that dictate what is right and wrong. Most of these lays make it illegal to question the authority of the party, or its actions. One of the good things that come from the creation of reality, in 1984 is that there is no bad news, and that makes the general population happier. Reality is also created in today's society. It is done in a more indirect and subtle way. The media in ...

... off to live with her wicked stepmother and stepsisters. In “Cinderella”, both of the stepsisters are wicked, but in “Ever After”, her sister Jacqueline is not so wicked and usually sides with Danielle. In “Ever After”, Jacqueline is the not so pretty and quiet sister and Marguerite is the loud obnoxious pretty one. One similarity is that in both movies, Cinderella and Danielle are servants to their stepmother and stepsisters. They are also not allowed to eat with them, only serve them. In “Ever After”, Danielle’s only friends are the other servants of the ho ...

... topples over. Even before Laura actually meets Carmilla there is an instant attraction to her. This is displayed in a conversation between Laura and Madame. “How do you like our guest?� I asked, as soon as Madame entered. “Tell me about her?� “I like her extremely,� answered Madame, “she is, I almost think, the prettiest creature I ever saw; about your age, and so gentle and nice.� “She is absolutely beautiful,� threw in Mademoiselle, who had peeped for a moment into the stranger’s room.(Le Fanu 83) This quote is the first description of the attraction a person is vulnerable t ...
