... on a daily basis. A person may look students in their class over the first day of school and appraise them. That guy over their looks a little sleepy -- maybe he attends many parties, better watch out for him. The lady across the aisle is looking perky -- too perky. Maybe she's just out to brown-nose the instructor to try to get a good grade. The prejudgment phase is why many students wear nice and well-mannered clothing the first two weeks of class. They know the very real danger that other students might dismiss them as second class citizens if they just wore comfortable clothing such as jeans and a T-shirt. ...

... (244). Also Hawthorne writes, "as the wife was aptly named, and she’s a blessed angel on earth" symbolizes that Faith is faithful and honest (243). In contrast to Faith is the mysterious travellar. He represents the devil in the forest which represents hell. Hawthorne writes, "his staff, which bore the likeness of a great black snake" (244) and "The moment his fingers touched them, they became strangely withered and dried up, as with a week’s sunshine" (246) symbolizes the hellish powers of the devil. Young Goodman Brown plays the middle man within the story. He is married to a beautiful wife an ...

... people are the wrongdoers let their suffering be no worse than the injustice they are meting out to me.” (p196.984). Not unlike Oedipus once was, Creon was also a proud ruler. In a confrontation with Antigone he states, “When I am alive no woman shall rule.” (p181.579), which suggests that his pride is adamant and unforgiving, more so than Oedipus. Creon also exhibits stubbornness along with his pride, this is evident when he states “My enemy is still my enemy, even in death.” (p181.575). His pride becomes even stronger when others attempt to defy his will. His argument with his ...

... this when he loved a boy named Gordon at a summer camp. He was only 15 at the time and didn't know these feelings which he was having for he had never heard of such feelings. He was confused and disorientated because he was different from what the South stood for in this aspect. Yet, other than this, he did share much of the same values of his native homeland.

To add to the feel of the era, a statue stands in the middle of the platform. This platform serves double duty as the Akropolis and as the Citadel, both of which the women have occupied. When the men light a fire below the walls of the Akropolis, smoke pours out of the bundle of sticks, making it appear as if a fire has really been ignited. Fortunately the women are ready and the fire is extinguished and the men all doused with w ...

... Ernest was born July 21, 1899 in Oak Park, Illinois. The society he grew up in was one of strict disciplinarians. His parents were no exception. In fact he spent much of his life trying to escape the "repressive code of behavior" (CLC, 177) that was pushed upon him as a child. After graduating high school in 1977 he chose not to go to college and instead became a reporter for the Kansas City Star, where he remained for seven months. His oppurtunity to break away came when he volunteered as a Red Cross ambulance driver in Italy. In July of 1918 while serving along the Piave River, he was severely wounded by shrapnel ...

... dream and both knew they ment the world to each other. I felt that if these totaly different people could get along and look out for each other, why can't we get along with people who are differnt than us. They made me realize that I could learn something from how to treat people who are differnt than me. What I also liked about it was the way they never stopped trying to reach their dream. This made me think that if they could work hard for there dream why can't I. It showed me that it does not matter were you come from or what you do, it is okay to dream and work as hard as you can to reach it . For all it shows f ...
