De Regels Van Matthijs

Macbeth loses his heroism and becomes fear-stricken when, undeservingly, he acquires certain knowledge about a few unrelated events of his future life. Having tasted “certainty” of the irrational world, Macbeth becomes more and more troubled by the uncertainties of the rational world and his fear is aggravated and heroism disappears more and more. He turns out to be a divided personality as he lives in one world and abides by another. His reason and imagination don’t work as parts of a unified sensibility. Imagination makes him more frightened and less heroic.

To the untrained eye, a story could be viewed one-dimensionally; a tale might only appeal to emotion while logic is left out in the cold. Equally, logic may be forgotten while emotion is heavily focused on. However, through the use of Critical Lenses, readers can begin to see greater depth in literature. As readers find connections through Critical Lenses, they become more educated on various topics, more aware of social, political, and even logical abstractions. Instead of failing to retain the intent and content of the material, they even can remember details of stories more vividly when truly examining literature rather than reading it once for entertainment (or chore).

There we can finally see that Gene never cared about Finny even though Finny loved him like a brother, and did no wrong to him. Only a heartless, self centered person would laugh at someone in pain especially his fallen friend. As hard as it is sometimes evil things or people can destroy good works. The novel A Separate Peace definitely has the theme of good vs evil. The many struggles between good and evil can be observed in Gene and Finny's relationship.

Frank improves the quality of life in the annex through his morals. When everyone in the annex is busy arguing, Mr. Frank says “We don’t need the Nazis to destroy us. We’re destroying ourselves (II. iii).” He points out that they did not need a larger force to tear them apart; by fighting they could do it themselves. He desires peace in the annex, which is shown throughout the play when he puts conflicts to an end.

For instance, in his childhood, Amir is constantly competing with Hassan for Baba’s attention and love. This leads to his lack of action when he witnesses Hassan’s rape. His regret for not interfering when it happened and hiding his misguided choice infect his mind even in his adult life six years later when he moves to America. With a few exceptions, people simultaneously embody evil and good in their life; Hosseini demonstrates this with Amir, who is convinced that he himself is evil, and spends most of the book struggling to redeem himself so he can finally realize he is not wicked after all.

The instructress communicates specifically with Winston through the screen and after exorbitant amounts of encouragement, “Winston, with a violent lunge, succeeded in touching his toes with his knees unbent, for the first time in several years”(37). Winston recognizes the problems with the world in which he lives; unlike others, he can remember the past and knows that the Party alters history so that they can remain in power. However, even he ultimately recognizes that going against the Party will result in punishment. Therefore, although the exercises hurt Winston, the combination of the lady’s relentless focus along with the idea that the rest of the population also participates in the stretching overpowers Winston’s innate resistance to the Party.

From the man’s perspective, people from different cultures cannot truly “know” each other. On the contrary Ann believes in the power of love. As the argument continues to escalate, Ann begins to wash the dishes at a faster rate. Interracial marriages are notorious for failure, according to her husband. He also expresses his hostility for foreigners to wed, again because they come from different backgrounds.

Don’t you think I know that? I can still like him, though, can 't I? Just because somebody’s dead, you don’t just stop liking them, for God’s sake-especially if they were about a thousand times nicer than the people you know that’re alive and all.” (143) The author uses Holden’s desperate voice to show the reader the despair he feels from losing his brother and how its troublesome for him to cope with the pain.

His resilience is weak when he learns about the rest of her story. Then there is Stanley, whom doesn’t care for

Jeremy seemed relieved that I had spoken. ‘She d-did Pa. R-right ‘fore y’all come, she did.” Jeremy’s actions in Strawberry show the reader that he is willing to not only willing to stand up for Stacey, but also his family. Although he knows he will get punished for engaging with them, he still protests because he is truly a good friend. On the other hand, T.J. is not willing to stand for neither Stacey, nor the Logans.

I think it would have been more effective if it was told in the view of the narrator. If it was told in a different view, we wouldn’t know the narrator's thought or feelings. Also being told in first person lets the story be told as true as possible instead of having it be told of a speculator. LIke in the email by Sergeant Tina M.Beller, “The Smell Of Fresh Paint”, and the short story “International Reality Consultants,LTD.” by Amy VAughan. Being in the view of the narrator is more effective than being in another point of view.

The plants outside begged for water. Wait, plants are not able to beg, are they? They did not literally beg, though, it is just that they look parched. If the subject is a thirsty person, they would be begging for water right now. The way that this sentence is worded sounds much more interesting.

On March 7th, I had the privilege of attending a performance called “The Castle” written and performed by four wonderful and talented people – Rory Anderson, Ervin Hunt, Victor Rojas, and Vilma Oritz Donovan. As I traveled all the way to the Engleman Recital Hall at Baruch College, I was excited because I have never ever heard of a performance where ex- convicts come in to tell their stories. After more than an hour, I came to the conclusion that this performance was absolutely astonishing and exceeded my expectations. In “The Castle,” the four performers each beautifully told their story of how they ended up on dark path, leading up to their incarceration.

Two Enemies One Story This paper will identify differences and similarities within the Apache and Cherokee Tribes of North America through their Creation Stories. Creation Stories often share similarities throughout the world. Creation stories are frequently considered sacrosanct explanations which are found in almost all Native American tribes except a select few in South America. These stories all have a scheme of figures who are often divine beings with human features or human like, or a combination of animalistic features and human, who play main roles with in the creation story. Creation Stories help answer question that cannot be answered by general knowledge and are told in a story format.

People often think of stories as tools we use to pass down knowledge and tradition. They inspire others about the possibilities of world; overall they are considered a positive thing. However, in Songs and Stories of the Ghouls, Notley explores how stories can also be used as weapons by the powerful to erase the culture and history of a group of people. What we call history is the “objective” version of the story of the world the powerful want told. It is this singular version of history that gives us the ability to make sense of the world.
