The narrator starts by introducing the boys as “bad characters,” (insert quote citation) but it is all a facade. The denial of character is noticeable with the early symbols of the story. The boys are blinded by their need to fit in, and when the veil of true “badness” is uncovered they are terrified.

Huck lets the two lie and cheat because allow them will give him less trouble than if he were to confront them. Since he let them continue, they put on fake plays, such as Romeo and Juliet, and lie to strangers to earn money by saying they are a “changed man because of God” during a camp meeting. Twain shows how twisted the world is by using these characters to show how being morally wrong can take you farther than being a good person. As shown previously, Twain expressed his opinion on morality in various ways in Huckleberry Finn. He showed how the stereotypes during this time were not accurate at all, and how they can be broken.

The term “fishmonger” has two meanings; the literal meaning is someone of a low class who sells fish. This would come as an insult to Polonius as it is basically saying that he is of no use to the king or anyone anymore. However, in the Elizabethan times, it meant someone who was a procurer. In this case, Polonius is using Ophelia to set up Hamlet and secretly listen to their conversation.

This is an example of Candide gaining experience throughout his traveling of the world. He saw selfish side of the sailor when Jacques saved the sailor ,but he did not try to save Jacques. According to Candide “the good Jacques runs to his assistance, hauls him back on board, and in doing so is himself pitched into the sea in full view of the sailor, who leaves him to drown without even a backward glance (13).

This reciprocates to Holden predicament because he as well does not know what is going to happen to him. Near the end of the story Holden goes to the pond and ponders on whether he will ever succeed like society pushes males to do. Which leads to, shortly after, Holden having a mental breakdown, and having to be hospitalized.
