According to thatonerule.com, “never make assumptions about someone based on your past experience with somebody else”. This quote fits in my story, because if you make assumptions about Caliban in the beginning, they are going to be bad. In the end, if you make the wrong choice with assuming something that really didn 't happen, then Caliban will get killed. Throughout the Emma Squier novel, “Soul of Caliban,” it clearly points out that assuming things before you know the whole story is not a good way to live. One example of how making assumptions leads to a misunderstanding, so when Amelie assumes Caliban is bad, then Leon gets mad at him. Emma Lindsay Squier wrote, “Amelie screamed. . . Leon came running with a face the color of …show more content…
Here is another example of how assuming things can lead to misunderstandings, Amelie freaks out when Caliban tries to grab the baby even though he just wants to play with the baby. Emma Squiers wrote, “Caliban had accepted the girl, Amelie, stoically, without apparent resentment. . . When Leon took up the tiny baby in his arms, Caliban growled, and his eyes became a baleful red. . . One day when Leon caressed the child, Caliban sprang, trying to tear the infant out of his arms. Leon kicked the dog furiously aside, and beat him with a leather whip."Caliban, you devil!" he panted between the blows. "If you ever touch that baby, I 'll kill you!"(30-33). In the story Caliban really did care for Leon, because he accepted Amelie into their lives, and when they had a baby Caliban tried to grab the baby. Leon said “no!” because he wanted to teach the dog not to grab the baby. That is a good thing. But when Amelie sees what Caliban does, and then she gets all mad at the dog, and Leon gets all mad too. That is why Amelie is the problem here, not Caliban. Amelie always assumes the worst, and then Leon agrees with her, so they are both mad at Caliban for no good reason. He just wants to play with the baby, not hurt it. As you can see, assuming things before you know what happened is not a good attribute to have. For example, when Amelie freaks out when Caliban tries to grab the baby and he just wants to play with the …show more content…
Emma Squier clearly points out that if you don 't know what really happened in a situation, you shouldn 't assume until you know. This theme was proven when Amelie assumes Caliban is bad, and then leon gets mad at him. Then Amelie freaks out when caliban tries to grab the baby, and he just wants to play with the baby, and then Amelie makes an assumption that Caliban killed the baby when really he saved the baby from the wolf.

For example, on page 152, Monique thinks that her children are dead in the fire. Monique would’ve realized how much they’ve done for her, If they actually were gone. Suddenly, she’d be all alone with Jordan dead as well, she would've realized what it was without Gerald cleaning up the dishes for her. Or Angel admiring and complimenting on her style.

Armand’s father had brought him home from paris, when he was eight, after his mother died. He came from a wealthy family.

In this stage she is expected to feel comfortable in the human culture, and everything in the human culture will start to make sense (Russell 240). Claudette does not match the expectation in this stage due to the Sausalito dance. When she got to the dance, she met Kyle, her brother. Their conversations were very awkward, she, “narrowed my eyes at Kyle and flattened [her] ears, something [she] hadn’t done for months” (Russell 242 and 243) because she had changed into a human. She naturally resorted to her wolf like instincts to flatten her ears when she was in this awkward conversation with Kyle, meaning she has not met the expectation of the stage.
“‘I don’t think you’d better consider it any more, Father.’ ‘I won’t have any threats from my son!’ ‘Very well.’ And Peter strolled off to the nursery.”
This relates back to naturalism, because Lennie gets himself into a situation that he cannot control. He does not understand that he has to be very careful with the puppy because it is so small, and he does not know his own strength. “What is clear is that Lennie’s body wins out over his mind repeatedly,- in the end with tragic consequences”(Keener 1215). Lennie is very kind- hearted, and never wants to hurt anyone. This quote explains that Lennie’s strength wins over his intentions.
At this point in the story, the reader begins to sense the theme of inaccurate perception and false accusation, for the

For example, we know from reading the story that Montresor and Fortunato were once friends. This can be confirmed as Montresor recounts how he encountered his friend “one evening during the supreme madness of the carnival season” (Poe 739). This can be further exemplified as throughout the course of the story Montresor more than once refers to Fortunato as his friend or dear friend. However though, from the onset, we come to realize that this friendship is very shallow and is no more as Montresor states “the thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as best I could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge” (Poe 739). We come to realize very quickly that Montresor plans to kill his friend over an
Lennie is triggered when certain things happen, like when he kills the mouse, he goes into another state of mind. When Lennie is not triggered he is described as an innocent, kind person or as others would say he is a big baby. Not many people see Lennie’s aggression except for George. George tries to handle Lennie 's anger with trying to demand him to do this or that but it never helps Lennie in the long run.
As soon as Isabel notices her parents are attending the same show as her and her new boyfriend, she intricately details their current state and, in turn, this detail-orientation creates amusement. Isabel begins her description by comparing her mother’s outfit to a “willow tree”. De Botton uses this simile disguised as an insult to portray Isabel’s mother’s character as one of whom Isabel does not approve; it additionally implies her old age from which Isabel wishes to distance herself. Furthermore, de Botton foreshadows family crisis and turmoil in his introduction suggesting that Isabel’s mother has multiple “gentleman friends” as Isabel hopes “she didn’t come with one” of them. Not only is her mother unfaithful to her father, but, “with any luck, they’ll be too busy arguing to glance up” at Isabel and her date indicating an unhappy marriage.

On the one hand, when people misinterpret the body language of the characters, which is supposed to reflect their inner emotions, the consequences are often fatal. For example, regarding the incident of William's death, the confusion that appeared on Justine's face when she was accused with the murder was misinterpreted as a proof of guilt and eventually led to her death. On a similar incident at the Irish island, Victor was almost accused of murder only for misinterpretation of his body language. As he relates that incident with the mention of fingers on the Henry's corpse he says: "I remembered the murder of my brother and felt myself extremely agitated [...]. The magistrate observed me with a keen eye and of course drew an unfavorable augury from my manner".
He is the epitome of the oppressed indigenous African people and introduces the theme of freedom. Cesaire establishes Caliban as the protagonist of the play and draws significance on Caliban’s attempt towards the quest for freedom. When Caliban is introduced to the audience in the second scene of ACT I, the first word he utters is “uhuru”. This sets the perimeter for his actions throughout the play “A Tempest”, were freedom is foremost on his agenda. Caliban is evidently more defiant and harsh to Prospero in “A Tempest”, were he is rebellious in that he uses his native language and uses language Prospero taught him to retort to Prospero’s commands with insult; this is evident in Caliban’s speech “I’ll impale!
Caliban was being dehumanized. Caliban was a symbol that stood for the countless victims of European imperialism and colonization.
