... exceedingly innocent person. But does the author ever remind us of the murder at any time in the novel again? Not in the physical sense of the crime itself. The reader doesn't hear about how heavily the murders are weighing on his heart, or how he is tormented by visions of the crime. He doesn't feel the least bit guilty about having committed the crime, only his pride's hurt. He doesn't mention the idea of the pain that might arise from recurrent visions of the crime. Raskolnikov never again recalls the massive amounts of blood everywhere, the look on Lizaveta's face when he brings down ...

... With a shot of adrenaline, she hurled the stone edge after the tractor. Had this man no respect for the souls he so violently cut over? The stone dropped ten feet short, and the man was oblivious to it. The girl, innocent and full of rage, dropped to her knees at her deceased brother’s headstone. The only way she’ll ever see him. Only one tear fell the whole night, though. She wasn’t as mad as she was blown away at the whole idea that, even though he was her older sibling, he’d always be preserved in time, like the granite above him, as a four-day-old infant. She considered this while s ...

... and a few amatory stages later, he dropped� her for a girl who was performing opposite him in a school play.

... the end of the play, Macbeth is convinced by the three weird witches and by his wife to fulfill the prophecies (that he will be thane of Glamis and king). Banquo and Macbeth react differently, Macbeth considers killing the king, and does, while Banquo calmly ignores such urges. Act I, scene two, sets the reckless and fast-paced mood for the rest of the play. a wounded captain tells King Duncan how Macbeth honorably killed Macdonwald and how he and Banquo later withstood an attack from the Norwegian King. Duncan sees Banquo and Macbeth as heroes and honorable soldiers. To reward "brave Macbeth"(act 1,sc.ii, 17) Dunc ...

... interest to the student, he may not even bother to read the book, however, since it is forced upon him, it would be read in a hurry. If a novel is read in a hurry, it is lost because the reader would most likely look over the words just enough to understand the plot but would not go in detail. The detail in a novel is very important since it helps create atmosphere and mood which results in the reader beginning to imagine himself as the character. In some novels, for example, just the details of the surroundings of the character? location take seven to eight pages to explain and if the detail is missed, the reader ...

... of the peoples’ faces as what seems like a train speeding by and blurring the faces of the awaiting passengers. Yet Pound does allow the reader to notice the faces that he sees by giving a select few form, hence, “Petals on a wet, black bough”(2). The author uses “Petals” to relate to the faces that he notices in the amorphous crowd from the “bough” which he relates to the train. Pound uses “Petals” which signify beauty and delicacy, an object spawned from the sun and places them in the “wet, black bough” which relates to subjects of a subterranean ...

... tends to be on the racist side at times. When one reads the very first page of Twains book, a sense of adventure and mystery can be readily found. Huckleberry Finn starts off by describing how his adventures in life had all begun. He and his friends form a gang, first by writing their name in blood and second, by taking an oath that vows to never reveal their secrets to anyone. If one reveals their secrets to anyone, they would be killed and their family would be killed also. At first glance while reading this page, it would seem as though Huck Finn was a boy who was a killer and one with no conscience, but it ...

... for many years. He gave many valedictions in his days as the dean, unfortunately one of his valedictions may have been for his lost wife. Donne was very well educated and grew up surrounded by the church and the arts. These influences no doubt helped to shape his views on love and the passing of life. Each stanza of "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" is tied together by an " a - b - a - b" rhyme scheme. This is not surprising because of the calming effect expected of this poem. The steady back and forth motion of the rhyme calms down the reader, much as a hug that rocks you back and forth calms you. This poem ...
