.... want to be identified with Ireland. He wants to be identifies as a citizen of the world. His arrogance is revealed in his interaction with others. A primary example would be the way he treats his wife Gretta as an object. As Peter J. Rabinowitz informs one that in reader response criticism the "…activity of reading always alters the text at hand. Unless we are limiting ourselves to reading in the sense of uninflected recitation, reading is never a passive activity to which the reader contributes nothing. In the reader response criticism, reading is a text in whic .....

.... his characters involves describing them connected to their surroundings. He creates landscapes and residences that parallel the essence of the character found within. Dickens also uses the past and future to create a vivid picture in the readers mind. Colors are another very critical part in Dickens writings. He uses colors contrasting the light with the dark to create a mood for his character. Charles Dickens uses the Victorian Era to describe the enviornment that his stories take place in. He uses the colors of the Victorian era such as different color browns, blacks, and gr .....

.... control of his house. Before he descended into Hades, Odysseus was quick to draw his sword and start a fight. At almost all of his stops, Odysseus and his crew, some how or another, got into battles with the inhabitants of the islands. While he is in Hades, Elpenor, his dead crew member, tells Odysseus to bury him or he may “draw up God’s vengeance upon (him)!”(125). When Odysseus leaves Hades he goes back to bury his friend. This is the first time that we see Odysseus paying respect to one of his crew after their death. The many times before when Odysseus’ crew memb .....

.... with. The omniscient positions readers to a god-like position which will let us have a better understanding of what the character feels, and also all the `conflict' the character is experiencing and feeling. The characters's point of view are important in revealing the main theme of this story which is learning to let go. By understanding the characters's point of view, we are able to decide what main theme is about. Firstly, the story have taken us a `tour' in the old man's position which enabled us to understands what he is feeling. Even seeing that his grand- daughter .....

.... no point during the play does Kreton show any sign of knowing anything about morals or love. He overlooks the love of the Speldings and everything that they give him. Instead of showing thanks to the Speldings, Kreton does the opposite and tries to start a war. I believe that kreton's care of only negative traits was both useful and destructive. Without even knowing, Kreton indirectly showed the characters of the play that they overused violence. At the same time of showing something useful to the characters, Kreton insulted the characters about being primitive and .....

.... they feared if the white men heard their plan, they would know the prisoners had united. Therefore, they were always murmuring and muttering. On the other hand, the common word "talking" is more casual, louder and clearer. That is why I think Haley used " murmuring" instead of the more usual "talking." Then, Haley used "toubob" instead of the more usual "white men," because the Africans meant "toubob" as an insult and they thought of the white men as devils. For instance, in Chapter 37, "So great was his fury that Kunta was barely aware of the women singing Toubob fa! An .....

.... lead to his death. It affects his ability to think clearly, his awareness and his memory. The first area which is affected by the cold is the mans memory. This is shown when the man sits down for lunch, removes his mittens and unzipped his jacket. "The action consumed no more than a quater of a minute, yet in that brief moment the numbness laid hold of the exposed fingers" (p.227). Then the man strikes his fingers against his leg and is immediately met with a sharp pain. He then places his fingers back in the mitten and removes his other hand to finish his lunch. Howeve .....

.... By pointing out that Othello is a Moor Iago causes Roderigo to become even more jealous, because of the fact that he lost Desdemona to someone who he feels is of a lesser race. It even seems that Iago is toying with Roderigo when he reveals that he is a fraud when he says, "I am not what I am." (I.i.62) By using these tactics, Iago has almost gained total control of Roderigo. Iago uses a different tactic to manipulate Brabantio. He changes Brabantio's way of looking at the marriage of his daughter Desdemona to Othello. He awakes Brabantio by saying "Awake! What, ho, Braba .....
