.... from her bearing and pride. Especially in Chapter two, when she bravely faces the humiliation of the scaffold: "And never had Hester Prynne appeared more lady-like, in the antique interpretation of the term, than as she issued from the prison," Hester's daughter, Pearl, is "a blessing and is a reminder of her sin." As if the scarlet A were not enough punishment there "was a brat of that hellish breed" which would remind Hester of what had happened in the past. The "brat" could have been given away to Governor Bellingham yet Hester proclaimed that Pearl "is my happiness!... .....

.... about white people. It would have been impossible to do to her what she said Tom did "Tom Robinson's powerful shoulders rippled with his right hand on the back of his chair. He looked oddly off balance, but it was not from the way he was standing. His left arm was fully twelve inches shorter than his right, and hung dead at his side. It ended in a small shrivelled hand, and from as far away as the balcony I could see that is was no use to him." Tom Robinson couldn't have done the crime with the evidence provided, but still racism decided the verdict. The children j .....

.... traumatic experiences the slaves went through. In chapter one, the first thing we read is the story of Douglass' Aunt Hester being whipped. "He took her into the kitchen, and stripped her from neck to waist, leaving her neck, shoulders, and back, entirely naked. He then told her to cross her hands....After crossing her hands, he tied them with a strong rope, and led her to a stool under a large hook in the joist, put in for the purpose. He made her get upon the stool, and tied her hands to the hook.....Her arms were stretched up at their full length, so she stood upon the ends .....

.... and believing certain things, this is where Big Brother comes in. People are made to believe that they are always being watched by Big Brother, which they are. In every room of almost every building there is a Telescreen which allows Part members to see and hear anything that goes on in the area of the telescreen. Knowing that anything they say, think or do is being seen by the "Big Brother" people will began to believe and think what they are told is the truth, if they do not, they are tortured until they do. Big Brother is used, in my opinion, to scare the people of Ocean .....

.... people. She didn’t want people to break it. Ellen kind of kept her life secretive from others just like she had kept the microscope. Two themes can be discussed in the novel Ellen Foster. The first theme mentioned is self-reliance. Throughout the whole novel Ellen had to rely on her self to make it through life. After her mother died she had to survive on her own with the threat of her alcoholic father always in her way. She had to survive at her grandma’s by picking cotton and doing things of a lower status. She even got kicked out by her own aunt, and had the courage .....

.... and the undertaker were promised a share of the profit when the crops were sold. This conspiracy may not seem obvious at first glance, but under closer observation, one can see all the inconsistencies and clues that lead to this conclusion. First, there are many inconsistencies concerning Emma's incessant illness. When we first see Emma described, we are told that her eyes were "feverish with a determination to live" (39). This image does not suggest that she would give up life as easily as she supposedly does. Her illnesses were either planned or were hugely coincident .....

.... mud. Then Emil reappears to fix the plumbing,wrecking Wil's parents' nerves in the process. The atmosphere in the story is that of a small hick town in northern Wisconsin:open,friendly,relaxed and very laid-back. It strikes me as being very much like "cottage country" in northern Ontario:lakes,forest,fishing,small town life. The time is the late 1980's. The novel ends with Wil seeing that his father is watching him from shore. Wil rows over and finds that his father is tired and sad,his eyes rimmed with red from crying. Wil invites his father over to the island and .....
