.... other. The point which Twain drives toward in this point of the book is that people are basically sheep, a point reiterated later when a large group of people goes to lynch a man, and end up leaving quietly without doing anything. This summarizes the basic view Mark Twain held of the average southern person. Mark Twain demonstrated the way a child might think when Tom Sawyer started a band of outlaws in which everyone had to sign an oath in blood in the beginning of the book. In Tom's band of thieves we see a stubbornness in Tom whenever anyone tries to disagree wi .....

.... an ugly light shone out like fire” (Beowulf line 725), proves this point. In the novel however this point lacks development. Rather Grendel is portrayed as a confused creature passing through life looking for answers. Surprisingly Grendel walks the forest in harmony with the animals. He does not act like the blood hungry beast he is seen as in Beowulf. In the novel -- Grendel is walking the forest and comes across a doe. He notices that the doe is staring in fright and suddenly runs away. One would assume from the ideas hinted in Beowulf that Grendel would have attack .....

.... this was their only joy. The mothers grew up during perilous times in China. They all were taught "to desire nothing, to swallow other people’s misery, to eat [their] own bitterness." (p. 241) Though not many of them grew up terribly poor, they all had a certain respect for their elders, and for life itself. These Chinese mothers were all taught to be honorable, to the point of sacrificing their own lives to keep any family members’ promise. Instead of their daughters, who "can promise to come to dinner, but if she wants to watch a favorite movie on TV, she no lon .....

.... of the rhetorical and artistic construct of his fiction (Reynolds 179). Hawthorne used ironies of fallen women and female criminals to achieve the perfect combination of different types of heroines. His heroines are equipped to expel wrongs against their sex bringing about an awareness of both the rights and wrongs of women. Hester is a compound of many popular stereotypes rich in the thoughts of the time ...portrayed as a fallen woman whose honest sinfulness is found preferable to the future corruption of the reverend (Reynolds 183). Hester was described by Reynolds as a .....

.... a white school. Soon enough, she found out what it was like. She attended one of the best schools in the country, where the upper-class children of Little Rock went. Melba was always abused and picked on at school. Her grandmother told her to be a warrior and not to cry, because warriors don’t cry. In the South, people were not treated equally in the 1950s. Jim Crow laws stated that people were “separate but equal”, but that was not the case. Finally the government decided that separate was not equal. So they decided to integrate one of the best schools in the country. That s .....

.... have inflicted this injury. Tom’s left hand is shriveled and totally useless. On the other side of the coin, Atticus shows the court that Mr. Ewell is not ambidextrous but is only right-handed. A second testimony that supports the opposite of the verdict, was the fact that Mr. Ewell never called a doctor after learning of Mayella’s injuries. Following the incident, there had not been any physical examination performed by a certified physician. If indeed Mr. Robinson had committed the crime, Mr. Ewell’s first instinct would have been to get his daughter .....

.... "take it to their limit". Cal is the character who helped Lonnie by coaching him and Jesus relied on memories of his fathers inspiration. I feel it is important that an athlete have someone to inspire them, so they don't quit when they get frustrated. Lonnie, from "Hoops," was a very good basketball player, and Jesus from "He Got Game," was streetwise and a good player also. They each caught an opportunity to rise above the rest in their games, and were recognized by colleges as prospects. They both had their share of trouble to get out of and were tempted to take bribes on .....
