His passion of hatred is quite possibly the strongest passion throughout the entire play. His hatred is so strong that it can only be taken away by fairy magic and replaced by the opposite extreme;
Despite his evil motives, he is determined to do the best and overcome any obstacle that interferes with how bad he wants people to see he means no
Every book and everything in general has it’s weaknesses, sometimes there is a tremendous amount of weaknesses. In this book in particular the amount of weaknesses wasn’t as much as people would think. As for the first weakness, the amount of inappropriate words that were used was uncalled for. Not everyone reading wants to read about the characters fantasies on another character, in this case Ed and his fantasies with Audrey. The way Ed describes Audrey with her long legs and beautiful body is a little odd and quite creepy at times as well. Yes you do want some description in the book it makes it more interesting but the ways Ed did was quite baffling. To have a good book and to make it a good read it must have a clear story line in order
He was able to forget the rumors and decide for himself if he was going to judge them for how they are portrayed or how they actually are. Never Cry Wolf has become a controversial topic as people are not willing to accept the fact that we could of misjudged a species. If we can forget how they use to be portrayed and achieve what Mowat has, maybe we too will one day be able to live among these creatures as a community instead of an

It is not a simple task to be a hero. In Joseph Campbell’s article What is a Hero? the many attributes and tasks one must perform in order to be a hero are discussed. In Daniel Woodrell’s novel Winter’s Bone, sixteen year old Ree Dolly is put to the test when she must prove her dad is dead in order for her family to remain in their house. In the story, she attempts to regain this house that is about to be taken from under her, faces the man she fears more than any other, and is able to find a solution to the dilemma she is presented with. Through this all, she places her family above herself, displaying true selflessness.
A superhero can sometimes be a symbol of hope that can destroy all evil. Some examples of super heroes are Beowulf and Superman. Beowulf in the poem “Beowulf” is a hero who fights against a monster named Grendel to defend his people; he is considered the strongest warrior around. Superman on the other hand is considered the most powerful fictional superhero on planet earth, who fights against supervillains to defend human beings. Although Beowulf and Superman are both similar when it comes to heroic traits and that they both go on long dangerous journeys they differ in that they have different heroic deeds and show different timeless values, but somewhat similar universal
When heroes are portrayed as average humans, with weaknesses and flaws, it can give people courage to be heroes in their own
He also says things that are rude verbally. He calls Darzee “...a stupid tuft of feathers.” He threatens to kill Darzee’s babies, by saying, “If I could get up to your nest I’d roll your babies out!” He also interrogates Chuchundra, and calls him names.
Their he finds a house deep in the woods and roams around it looking for answers. “ I read many books for many days. Then I called the golden one and told her what I had read and learned” (Rand 98). This quote supports his trait of being curious, because he roamed throughout the woods even though he knew he might encounter evil, and he read until he knew men were independent with their own mind, and that's what he wanted to know all along. In spite of being determined, intelligent, he was also curious.
In my reading, I believe that the author of Cold Sassy Tree has been successful in portraying Aunt Loma as an unsympathetic character. I feel this way because on page 100 in the last paragraph, there is an extreme example of Loma acting disrespectful and unsympathetic. “But Loma shook her off and stalked past Miss Love and Grandpa to join Uncle Camp, who has taken Campbell Junior out on the porch. She didn’t even make a polite show of wishing them well. Didn’t say goodnight, even.” This is the most solid piece of evidence I could find that proves Aunt Loma to be unsympathetic because not only is Aunt Loma showing her feelings, but her being outright insensitive to both Miss Love’s and her father’s feelings.
“Winter Dreams” was published in 1926. Francis Scott Fitzgerald is most well-known for his novel “The Great Gatsby”. A common theme he is known for is the American dream and how it is corrupt. Fitzgerald enjoys writing about the poor boy chasing after the rich girl. This story is about a man named Dexter Green trying to achieve the American dream by obtaining the girl he adores. By the end of the story he cannot have the girl, and his dreams are ruined. The author illustrates Dexter Green as a wishful boy longing for what the future holds. Fitzgerald incorporates many symbols as one being solely Judy Jones. The author uses style in the story by separating the story into 6 sections. Fitzgerald in “Winter Dreams” depicts the fantasy of the American dream and how no matter how hard one works he may never achieve his dream.
Winter Dreams By F. Scott Fitzgerald is a short-story telling of a 14 year-old caddy named Dexter Green. In this narrative Dexter meet Judy Jones while working at his golf course. As the story continues on, Dexter becomes severely infatuated by Judy. The desire to be hers overcomes him so greatly, he works his way to wealth to be in the same social class as her, hoping to catch her attention and marry her someday. However Judy may be beautifully the outside as she ages, but her insides say differently. Throughout the entire story, Judy only cares for money, is cruel to Dexter, and proves to be selfish. These three characteristics can be proven through her words and actions in Winter Dreams.
Individuals are usually judged by their superficial appearances and not by their characteristics, which could cause a wrong perception of an individual true self-leading their status and identity to become an outcast from the society. Furthermore, it could lead an individual to have psychological effects on their mental health. For instance, it could lead an individual to obtain the feelings of emptiness and hopelessness, to conclude with a decision to commit suicide. Margaret Atwood’s short story, “Lusus Naturae,” is written in a first person perspective, in which the protagonist tells the story herself. The readers of the story are able to know what is going on in the protagonist mind and how she is feeling throughout the story. However,
Margret Atwood’s short story “Lusus Naturae” is known as a work of fiction in which a monster uncommonly plays the role of the protagonist. Discussing character dynamics, it is interesting to examine the symbolic meaning behind the girl as a monster in this story. Is this text simply a fantasy created with the goal to serve solely as a horror story with a typical ending, or does this tale have a deeper meaning encompassing the treatment of women and their sexuality throughout history. Through close reading of “Lusus Naturae,” I plan to use evidence from the text to illustrate symbolic parallels between the unusual protagonist and the known historical role women held in society.
