.... there was no one in the village, they got to search all the houses , and keep whatever they found. But their luck didn't last long. The French came and started shelling the village. While trying to escape, Paul and his friend Albert were injured by a gunshot wound. They were bandaged up and sent back home on a train. Albert got the flu and was scheduled to be dropped off at the next stop, so Paul convinced the nurse that he was also sick from infection, so they both were dropped off at the hospital to be treated. Alberts leg had to get amputated at the thigh. After a fe .....

.... Each time he seems to be referring to the subject of this metaphor as -- someone who discriminates against others, is a hypocrite about something, or has manifestations of conformity (Corbett, 1997). Throughout "The Catcher in the Rye", Holden describes and interacts with various members of his family. The way he talks about or to each gives you some idea of whether he thinks they are "phony" or normal. From the very first page of the novel, Holden begins to refer to his parents as distant and generalizes both his father and mother frequently throughout his chronicle. Holden .....

.... couldn’t stand it no longer. It was all over welts. He got to going away so much too, and locking me in. Once he locked me in and was gone three days (p.35).” Pap has no idea that he does anything wrong, even though he is such a horrible father to his son. By showing how uneducated Pap is, and what suffering it causes Huck, Twain argues his point. A speech that Pap gives early in the novel is one of the most affective parts of this story. Pap talks about the efforts that some citizens make in the courts to remove Huck from the care of his father. He criticizes saying, .....

.... especially with whites because of the way that they make him feel. I believe it to be though that Bigger does the most significant change in his character when he kills the young white girl Mary and gets sent to jail. With Mary he was able to let his feelings out after he had seen what happened, what he'd done. All the hate he could see that in a way he was like the white people, they're both full of hate and vengeance. The most significant change that effected the story is when all of this made bigger feel powerful and stronger so he felt better but everything just made .....

.... when he was a baby because I worked seven days a week on a split shift. Circumstances had changed by the time he was a year old, to where I could stay home, but by then he was walking and talking some. I barely new him, just as Tillie barely knew her daughter when she got her back: "When she finally came home, I hardly knew her." Soon, I had another child (Kevin) and less time to spend with Charles. There were many times that I wished I had more time with both of them. I can remember a few different times when I would get up in the middle of the night and sit snuggling .....

.... kill Duncan with Lady Macbeth, but Duncan doesn’t recognize this and goes to Macbeth’s castle to visit him. When he just gets in he says something very important: Duncan says, “This castle hath a peasant seat; the air/ Nimbly and sweetly reconnends itself/ Unto our gentle senses.” (Act I, Scene 6, Lines 1-3) This quote shows that Duncan like Macbeth very much even he feels that Macbeth’s place is comfortable for him. Duncan never suspects the trustworthy of Macbeth and never does anything to guard himself. Macbeth kills Duncan easily. Therefore .....

.... many new recruits, Paul Baumer and his classmates, enlist with youthful enthusiasm in the German army of World War I. As soldiers they know not what awaits them on the battle field. Many of their comrades will die before their very eyes. And for what? They don't know what their fighting against, they're fighting a war that isn't their own. But rather the war of the political leaders of several countries, whose arrogance cost the lives of so many young men. A war can never be fully justified, how do you justify the loss of human life? They know nothing of life but despai .....

.... such deference is more serious, but turn-of-the-century England was sure to expect far harsher. Educated people reading Conrad's novel should understand the differences between the past and the present, and be forgiving of his language. The deeper the expedition progressed into the center of the continent, the more isolation was felt by the crew. In a sense, Central Africa IS the antithesis of Western Europe -- it lacks not only the hectic urban structures but also the Social Darwinist attitudes of the time. It is in this remote environment that man must face his true .....
