... next chapter in the section is called Team Game. This chapter in my opinion talks about the most important part of the game, which is teamwork. In the beginning hockey did not have all the individually talented players of today, it was all about the team. The 1932 Detroit Falcons, which would soon be, renamed the Red Wings were a prime example of a 1920-1950s-hockey team. Not one player on the team tried to put their own individual statistics before the team, no matter how good they were. With this intense team playing style they won the Stanley cup the following season. The next and final chapter in section ...

... thing about his kingship was an act that took place fifteen years and four of his children ago. Was it really Sophocles' intention that we regard as a "good" man? accuses Tiresias and Creon, two innocent men, of conspiring to d! ethrone him and take over the country. Would a "good" man do this, lacking any evidence but his own suspicions? Would a "good" man wish his own brother-in-law dead when no one could even testify to his guilt? Would a "good" man threaten a timid shepherd with pain and death merely because he was hesitant to reveal the harsh realities of ' life? ' tale of meeting Laius is anoth ...

... Mr. Head, a self-proclaimed missionary, plans on taking his grandson Nelson to Atlanta City. Intending to introduce Nelson to the focal point of his prejudice. However, Mr. Head’s sub- conscious motives are to have Nelson believe his grandfather’s existence in his life is indispensable. He hopes Nelson dependency upon him strengthens. Doing so would not only make himself feel superior but also satisfy his own dependency needs. He’s content with the thought once Nelson has had the opportunity in experiencing the city he will “be content to stay at home for the rest of his lif ...

... he managed to kill nine sea monsters with his bare hands and still caught up to Brecca. He apparently bragged to such an extent that everyone in Scandinavia knew about this race and the courageous way he cleared the sea of evil. He, at this young age, had no need to think about death. All he thought about was foolishly having fun and proving himself to the spectators. When Beowulf fought with Grendel, the demon who was terrorizing Herot Hall, he came there boasting about how worthy he was to fight for Denmark. The people accepted him as a deserving warrior and permitted him to do what ever he needed to rid t ...

... It is my belief that Cathy Ames was born with the tendencies, or lack of them, which drove and forced her all of her life," said Steinbeck. Cathy used this to her advantage by making people uneasy, but not so uneasy that they would not run away from her. Cathy was born with an innocent look that fooled many; she had golden blond hair, hazel eyes, a thin and delicate nose, and a small chin to make her face look heart shaped. According to the town Cathy lived, Cathy had a scent of sweetness, but that is just what Cathy wanted the town to see and think when Cathy planned her kill. On page ...

... man comes to her aid, but only after she promises him her first born child. The daughter, who is now no longer a girl, goes to great lengths to get out of her promise and prospers by showing tremendous strength of character. Exploitation is defined as the use or manipulation of another person for one's own advantage ( Webster's Universal College Dictionary. New York. Gramercy. 1997). This is an element of human nature that is found in the interpretations of this story that I read. The miller, The king and Rumpelstiltskin all exploit the girl (Esmeralda) in different ways for personal gain. She too uses th ...

... survive a combined American/British firebombing raid that devastated the city and killed an estimated 135,000 people - more than the number of deaths in the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined. After the bombing, the soldier wrote his father, "we were put to work carrying corpses from Air-Raid shelters; women, children, old men; dead from concussion, fire or suffocation. Civilians cursed us and threw rocks as we carried bodies to huge funeral pyres in the city." Freed from his captivity by the Red Army's final onslaught against Nazi Germany and returned to America, the soldier - Kurt Vonnegut Jr. - t ...

... What they found was a vast new world, loaded with Indian cultures new to them. This overwhelming cultural interaction caused some Puritans to go mad and try to purge themselves of a perceived evil. This came to be known as the Salem witch trials. During World War II, Germany made an attempt to overrun Europe. What happened when the Nazis came into power and persecuted the Jews in Germany, Austria and Poland is well known as the Holocaust. Here, human's evil side provides one of the scariest occurrences of this century. Adolf Hitler and his Nazi counterparts conducted raids of the ghettos to locate and often ...

... traits that logically lend themselves to a comparison between the two men. They both display behavior that could be described as heroism. The first way in which Achilles, who fights for the Greeks, and Hector, who fights for the Trojans, act differently is how they approach war and the inevitable violence and death that accompany it. Although Achilles knows that he is fated to be killed in battle, when his faithful and devoted friend Patroclus is mercilessly and dishonorably cut down in combat, he puts aside his pride and chooses to temporarily forget about his previous feuds with Agamemnon that have, up until now, ...

... ties into her lack of exposure to emotional and intellectual stimulus. Jane’s feminine emotions towards her environment aid in her restraint. Representing the dominance of masculinity over the restrained female, Jane observes the female figure, who looks as if she is behind bars, in the pattern of the wallpaper (1156). The woman who unsuccessfully attempts to climb out of the pattern symbolizes Jane’s frivolity in trying to alter feminine societal roles (1158). Significantly, the maternal instincts of Jane remain enslaved due to her surroundings. The nursery, containing windows “barred for little children,� r ...
