.... of her unfair treatment to Prospero (Act 1, Scene 2): If thou more murmur'st, I will rent an oak And peg thee in his knotty entrails till Thou hast howled away twelve winters. Prospero here is informing Ariel that if she dares to question is authority again, he will imprison her in an oak tree for twelve years. Ariel, longing for her freedom, agrees to run errands for Prospero in order for him to gain control and be free, through his plans of uniting Miranda and Ferdinand. Throughout the play, references are made by Prospero that Ariel shall soon be free as long as she ca .....

.... damned houseful if you like. Will that satisfy you?". Henry Higgins said this to Eliza when Eliza asked him what she might take if she wanted leave. She said that she did not want to be accused of stealing. But Henry Higgins was very sarcastic, making Eliza appear calculating as she wanted to make sure of what she could take along with her. He was just trying to make her feel bad too. In Act V, Higgins tried to shake Eliza's composure with the phrase "You will jolly well see whether she has an idea that I Haven't put into her mouth." This is an insult to Eliza as Higgins .....

.... events by him and his comrades on the boat. As Marlow’s boat pulls up to the Outer Station, he sees a man-of-war shelling the continent, which is quickly clarified, by a pilgrim, to be a front against "a camp of natives - he called them enemies! - hidden out of sight somewhere" (Conrad 78) Marlow felt a "touch of insanity" in the whole concept of shelling the natives, who had done nothing to be considered enemies or criminals and had very likely fled the area a long time ago. Yet the Europeans feel that the natives are truly a threat and must be controlled. .....

.... to overthrow the capitalists by means of violent revolution. He urged workers around the world to revolt against their rulers. "Workers of the worl unite!" he wrote. "You have nothing to lose but your chains." Another thing Marx taught was that organized religion, the churches, help capitalists to keep the workers quiet and obedient. Religion, according to Mar 'the opiate of the masses'. The church tells working people to forget about th injustice they meet in their lives and to think instead of how wonderful it wi in the after- life when they go to heaven. Marx, with his co .....

.... with the "decent" folk, Hester, having come to terms with her sin, is inwardly reconciled to God and herself. Hester does not isolate herself from the Puritan town; instead, her isolation is inflicted upon her. Hester tries to establish a normal and honest relationship with many of the characters in the story, but sometimes it becomes very difficult. Pearl, Hester's daughter, becomes so closely associated with the "A" on Hester's chest, becoming, as Hawthorne says, "the scarlet letter in another form; the scarlet letter endowed with life." Therefore, she becomes the e .....

.... downfall of Arthur’s court, as well as man’s fall from grace in the garden. Originally, the first duty of a knight was to be at the service of his church. However, with the rise of courtly love, knights began to give their devotion to their mistress rather than God. This elevated the church’s mistrust of women and the flesh. The characterization of Bertilak’s wife is not unlike that of Eve, a temptress who would bring both happiness and despair to her man. One interesting twist to this story is that, like courtly love, possession of power seems to be shifted into the .....

.... of choice. It is his legal practices that destroy his wife and eventually lead to her horrifying death. An important quote which I recall was when Milton (Al Pacino) says, "nobody on earth could do his bidding better than a well trained band of attorneys". Kevin is working for Milton, and the more pampered he becomes, so much the better for Milton. It wasn't until this point when I finally realized the true meaning behind the film. The movie ends with the quote by Milton, "Vanity is definitely my favorite sin." He is talking about Kevin's vanity. Milton is tellin .....

.... to assume Julian is a depressed son, who is perturbed with his mother and her old ways of life. Complications begin to arise after the reader has a good feel on who the characters are, which then leads to the climax of the story. Tension first arrives between Julian and his mother when Julian moves from sitting next to his mother, to a Negro man on the bus. O’Conner uses a good example on page 208, " He stared at her, making his eyes the eyes of a stranger. He felt his tension suddenly lift as if he had openly declared war on her." The reader feels the anger .....
