.... which cause it to disintegrate. He understands that family councils are an important part of the lives of the Joads." The major theme is the struggle and survival of the Joad family from the time they lost their home, to the unity they felt and soon were a part of a whole community, one big family, and one big soul. This theme is particularly exemplified by Ma Joad, who played a major part. The Joads encountered a constant struggle to keep the family going and intact. When Ma knew that gramma Joad was dying she told her that there was nothing s .....

.... Othello as an old black ram and Desdemona as a white ewe, black being evil and white being of purity and innocence. Another example of Iago’s vulgarity is when he once again describes (to Brabantio), the relationship between Desdemona and Othello as, “Making the beast with two backs.” (Act 1, sc.i, line 117).

.... own mind, soul, or true-self. The person on this path will never see evil so singularly personified as in the face looking back at him. In taking this path, the person runs the risk of becoming the very thing he is trying to destroy. In Joseph Conrad’s macabre story Heart of Darkness, the protagonist represents the person selected to seek out and destroy the monster. Conrad uses many techniques to bring the reader into the darkness: archetype, symbolism, and foreshadowing. The theme of this classic tale is succinctly made through the words of the western philosophe .....

.... her own evidence in an example, Tannen limits some of her open-mindedness and replaces it with bias. The context of this example can affect the interpretation because the reader knows nothing about the salesperson except for his profession. The man might have feared the thought of losing his job if he had not known how to fix Tannen's camera. The man's boss might have been standing next to him when this incident occurred.
