The Importance Of Existentialism In The Stranger By Albert Camus

“Everyone of us was firm in his resolution of passing his term in jail in perfect happiness and peace” (Doc 7). He was not treated like royalty there but he lived in happiness and peace because he knew he was arrested for a good motive.People wanted to get arrested because they knew that if they got arrested was because their movement had had a large effect. “People had rushed down to get arrested. No one had been frightened. No one had tried to resist arrest.

“Princess Kachina we gave them a surprise and attacked in the cover of dark, not one man was hurt.” He looked at Kachina with great pride and puffed his chest. “We will reclaim that land soon princess you need not to worry.” Kachina looked at him wanting to know more of what happened but knew he was tired and left him to sleep more. She skipped on over to the river where she heard yelling and dogs barking. “I just found two more dead captain.” The voices of the men sounded bitter and mournful. “That’s 40 bodies in all, have you gone mad!” “No sir

Mr. Finch, although a well-known lawyer, never boasted or threw his status around. He modestly lived a simple life and readers did not realize what an important part he really played until the later part of the story. Only after shooting a rabid dog in between its eyes, did Scout and Jem then find out that Atticus actually had the deadliest shot in Maycomb country, but he never mentioned it in the past. “People in their right minds never take pride in

JonBenet was a six year old child who did nothing to provoke this horrific act that happened to her. When a child gets murdered, it is very tragic since they are what people like to call “pure souls,” they have not had to deal with horrific occurrences, they are not aware of the mess of the world. They have not become involved in things like adults have. JonBenet was a pure soul. She had not come in contact with anything turmoil, her purity was not taken away from her.

Additionally, while Capote never objects explicitly to Smith’s execution, his favorable conception of Smith manifests itself through the author’s commiserative characterization of Smith compared to his acerbic evaluation of Hickock. He says “‘Get the bubbles out of your blood. Nothing can go wrong.’ No Because the plan was Dick’s from the first footfall to final silence, flawlessly devised” (Capote 120). Though Capote rarely, if at all, explicitly disparages Hickock or laudates Perry, his tone and overall construction of the book subtly undermine the reader’s morals, subsequently leading them to sympathize for Perry. Through Capote’s exquisite diction and use of phrases such as “flawlessly devised,” he befittingly portrays Hickock’s lack of remorse .

McCandless was also never a harm to people he met. He would actually help out and instead of being a “leech”, he would help out and was even considered to be a hard worker. the only case of him hurting anybody would be that of Ronald Franz. He was hurt by Chris’s unintentional

He had no bad intentions; and it is fair to say that our witnesses have provided us with sufficient evidence to support my argument. George, was in a sense, Lennie’s caretaker. Lennie was never diagnosed with a medical condition, but he was stupid.

Irony is a technique that involves surprising, interesting, or amusing contradictions or contrasts ( Glossary...Pg 1). The greatest example of irony happens when it turns out Armand is the one that comes from black heritage. He learns this when he “finds a letter from his mom to his father explaining how he is black” turning the main plot of this story around (Chopin...Pg 5) Throughout the discovery of his son not being white, he blames Desiree for being the cause of the problem. He won’t speak out of the discovery of him being the one with black heritage because it is unacceptable to his family. He is insensitive and would rather harm his own family (Gradesaver.com...1) Another example of irony occurs in the way that Madame Valmonde didn 't have a child of herself and one day while her husband was riding he comes upon a child just asleep next to a stone pillar (Chopin...Pg.

"But two months dead…my poor father’s body…why she married with my uncle, my father’s brother, but no more like my father…But break, my heart, for I must hold my tongue" (I.ii.29-30) Hamlet agonizingly groans to himself. It is clear towards the start of the play that Hamlet is damaged—internally. It makes him upset to see his mother get married not long after his father 's passing, and Hamlet feels alone since nobody else appears to feel this same torment and be grieving with him. Based on this evidence, it is safe to infer that Hamlet had an excellent and upright relationship with his now dead father whom he respected. Therefore, if one was not as courageous or as heroic as Hamlet, they would have protested

Yigal admitted, “he did not regret his actions”(“1995” 1). His accomplices never showed remorse for their actions either. Yigal was said to have asked to “toast his achievement” at his sentencing (Bowen 1). In both events, the assassinations of Caesar and Rabin affected those around

In order to attain water they had to catch the falling rain when the world decided to show some sympathy towards the stranded survivors. Over time in the hot yellow sun they had to fight off sharks with oars and their hands, they lost almost half their body weight due to malnutrition, their bodies became dry and swollen, they had to patch bulletholes in their rafts after a japanese bomber shot at their rafts, and McNamara ended up dieing on day 33 of starvation and dehydration. That 's only scratching the surface of what happened to them on their 47 days at sea though. On their 47th day they came to a boat near a pacific island that was Japanese territory and 2,000 miles away from where they crashed. They were taken into captivity as POWs by Japan.

He gets up and dines what everyone was asking. First, they start to ask how the war went, he was always quiet until they asked do you know deeper about what happened to Fergus. He said “it was a tragic accident.” As mom and dad ask “what do you mean.” He says “I was stuck in a corner, I got a lucky shot at a great free state sniper who wounded me. As he was stuck he fell off the building to the street. I was so impressed by his skills on my outing of the roof top, I check who it was and as I am troublesome to check I am getting shot at.

He loved Katia while sober, and adored her to pieces. Drunken, and or high actions was when he burned all of her baby pictures because he “couldn’t be her father”, or when he yelled at, or hit

“An under-appreciated officer from the CIA’s Special Activities Division should do better.” Claudia was impressed that Crewcut and his organization had such an able network. Though she was also relieved that no one had figured out the oddity. No one was ever close except that female detective. She suspected, rightfully so, that something was amiss. Claudia counted on no one would deduce the surprise.

With his dreams in keen sight, he holds them with such a tight grip because he knows how easy it is too loose track of the joys life brings. There are a couple instances in his life he freely opened up about when I asked him, “Have you ever thought about killing yourself”? There was a huge emotional drop in the interview when prompted this question, however the comfortability of a two-year close relationship kept it on track. It’s very sad to say but he cited many times where he felt the thoughts were too much. He said that “I never once acted on them because I’m not the coward my father was.” He didn’t enjoy the emotions following his words because he has moved past that time in his life and wants to forget about it.
