.... are low in the level of confidence to proceed with going to the battle front. The usage of 'gay' has been applied to convey the device oxymoron, although the men are anxious about departure for war, they still try to show cheerfulness. Owen progresses further ahead into the poem and introduces people watching the men departure. "A casual tramp, stood staring hard.", the indication we get from this line is that other individuals who have not entered to fight in war are the 'ones' better off than the soldiers. The tramp is described "staring hard", he must have been thinking at .....

.... novel, it is evident we are examining an external world based in a society where the white oppressor governs the oppressed black populace. The economic realities of white land ownership, near-monopoly of technical and business skills and control of financial institutions was in fact the accepted norm (Sowell 48). When presenting the term fact - we must account for the introduction of a second model, "historical and empirical data" in representing the real world of . As illustrated in the pages of American history books, it is evident that American Negro slavery had a peculi .....

.... combine them into a meaningful structure. The latter places the poem in relationship with Anglo-Saxon alliterative poetry, an important part of the Gawain-Poet's cultural and moral heritage. Both in the poet's use of alliterative verse and in his characterization of Gawain, it is apparent that Gawain has much in common with the Anglo-Saxon hero, such as Beowulf. The strange, hostile world he encounters upon leaving Camelot, the many tests he endures, the crafty machinations of the Green Knight, and the sexual temptations that can so easily overcome a man - impress us with the .....

.... Prospero can be "relieved by prayer" of the audience. All of what Prospero has said is very nice cute, but the most interesting part of this monologue is what Shakespeare himself is saying. "Now that my charms are all o'erthrown, and what strength I have's mine own" means, now my plays are over, and it's no longer my characters speaking. The "Island" or stage Shakespeare is on is now "bare" and it is time for "you" the audience to release Shakespeare and his actors from this play with the "help of [y]our good hands." Shakespeare was not only being released for th .....

.... kind of tension is in the first six lines. The ladder, which points “toward heaven,” represents the speaker’s climb through life toward death and heaven and the barrel and apples left on the tree represent things he regrets having or not having done during his lifetime. But in line six he says that he is “done with apple-picking now,” which sounds as if he’s saying that what’s done is done and he must accept it. It is almost as if he is having a conflict within himself as to whether he should be content with his life or not. The “sleep” that the speaker mentions constantly .....

.... reacts when he first sees the hideous form he has created is a clear indicator of how their relationship will be While creating his child, Victor never considered whether this creature would even want to exist. He also didn't take enough care with the creature's appearance. Victor never considered how such a creature would be able to exist with human beings. He did not take time with the features either and created a being with a horrifying appearance. Unable to accept his creation, Victor abandons his "child" and all parental responsibility. He even wishes that his "child" .....

.... men to put in their ears so they didn't have to listen to the Siren's songs. Since Odysseus didn't have any leftover beeswax for his ears, he had to resist the temptation of hearing the songs. Secondly, he tricked the Cyclops and got away in time before he was killed. Third, Odysseus sends just two of his men, instead of the whole group, to find out about the songs. If he sent them all, they may have got killed. Even though Odysseus is strong and intelligent, he also has enough self-confidence to get him through his journey. If he didn't believe in himself now, how woul .....

.... 'In all my dreams, before my helpless sight, He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.' And then: 'If you could hear at every jolt, the blood Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs, Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues.' Owen generates two powerful images aimed at discouraging the mere thought of war by its emotionally distressing descriptions. The way in which Owen moved the images from a general concept to personal illustration by addressing the reader directly, 'If you could hear' indicated that I mus .....
