... have the usual connotations of evil and good. These pigments are found throughout the entire book. Ironically, although black, the native Africans seem to represent a sort of good by doing what they feel is right. On the other hand, the white foreigners carry themselves with some kind of evil as they exploit the great kindness of the blacks. I guess you could say that the white men were filled with a black hatred inside. Another example is found when Marlow enters the Belgian company’s office. Sitting in the office are two women dressed almost completely in black. Marlow is no beginning to understand th ...

... I think the most obvious presentation of this occurs in the final book and is consistent with the character earlier in the poem. I believe the most speculation about inconsistencies in Achilles’ character would center on his savageness towards the Trojans, especially Hektor, after the death of Patroklos, and his sensitivity towards Priam’s plea for his son’s body. It could be considered odd that Achilles is so understanding to Priam and the burial of Priam’s son, when not that long ago Achilles was dragging the body of Hektor around the grave of Patroklos. This is the same corpse that ...

... mead hall is singing a song that has to do with creation. This shows Grendel's apparent disregard for God and he proceeds to go to the hall and capture men and eat them while they are asleep. As we progress into the story, we learn that Grendel carries the curse of Cain with him. "He bore the curse of the seed of Cain/ Whereby God punished the grievous guilt of Abel's murder." Cain was the son of Adam and Eve and was the one who murdered Abel, his brother, out of a jealous rage for God's favor to Abel. This shows us that Grendel had more than just a dislike for the men, the song was showing Grendel that his ancestor ...

... bound to this anguish but is a woman with her own identity. It is clear that Cisneros is trying to illustrate to us that pain, anguish, and despair are not always readily seen or heard. That these can be seen through our actions and thoughts if we will only take the time to notice, as did the doctor did at the end of the story. The passions seen on the telenovas by Cleofila have a hidden meaning in the story. It is imperative for Cisneros to use these vivid images of the telenovas as a way to see the life Cleofila wishes to have. When we are in pain, or are hurting we don't like to show it, because of our human ...

... It made you feel as if something was going to take place in this town, but no clues were given. In the movie Defoe not only does the narration, but also plays Wade’s (Nick Nolte) brother. Defoe’s character grows up, moves away and becomes a schoolteacher. This was something different for Defoe, but by using a quite and soft-spoken tone it made his character fit smoothly into the plot. Flashing back to the night of Halloween. Wade is driving Jill his daughter (Bridgid Tierney) to her ex-school’s Halloween festival. It is obvious; Jill does not want to be there. She feels that her father is very confus ...

... (Guildenstern), and theking Claudias. From behind this mask they give the impression of a person who is sincere and genuine, in reality they are plagued with lies and evil.

... CX30 was an important breakpoint for the Robotics Division. The success or failure of the project will determine the survival or demise of the division. Nothing could go wrong because it would mean layoffs. There was a large conflict between Sam Reynolds (Robbie CX30 Project Manager) and Ray Johnson (Chief of Robotics Division). Each of them have different views in how to complete projects. Ray pressured Sam to finish the project by the first of January or "heads will roll". Nevertheless, there were already rumors that the project was already six months behind schedule. The Sentinel-Observer had an anonymous ...

... of death because his best friend was killed, so he sets out on a mission to achieve immortal life. What Gilgamesh does not know is, he will never find what he is looking for. Even before he is told "The Story of the Flood" during his mission he comes across 2 gods who tell him that he is not going to achieve immortal life. The first god (Shamash) who he bumps into and he tells him, that he will not find the life for which you are searching for." (34) After Shamash confronts him, Gilgamesh then runs into the god Siduri. Siduri basically tells him the same answer, saying, "You will never find the life for which you ...

... looked up for who hits the most home runs or whatever the current trend is. Heroes have become messengers for public favoritism. The Anglo-Saxons believed that a hero should be strong, brave, and loyal, possessing the traits of the traditional hero. Beowulf is the true definition of an Anglo-Saxon hero. The traditional hero possesses a great deal of strength, as does Beowulf. Beowulf goes through the treacherous act of killing the monster Grendel without any weapons or help from others. Others had tried using swords and other weapons but were not able to succeed. All Beowulf needed was his “fiendish strength� ( ...

... detail about the surroundings. Benét focuses more about Jabez Stone's farm and his bad luck, like when he plants corn, he gets borers. The only real detail he gives about the surroundings is that he lives on the Cross Corners of New Hampshire and that he's on a farm. The story doesn't give much description on what his house looks like or the scenery. Also, in “The Devil and Daniel Webster� it tells the story at a quicker pace. Jabez meets the Devil and makes a deal before the story and plot really develop very much. In the “Devil and Tom Walker� the story goes into a lot of details about how his house is ra ...
