.... can't do but one thing at a time," (271). Time does not encumber Dilsey because she believes in eternity. Time does not effect Dilsey as much as it does the Compsons. She uses it to determine when to do work. The Dilsey section also refers to Jason and his concept of time. Jason seems to have an obsession to have things ready on time so his day will go smoothly, but this never happens. He is always trying to rush although he never accomplishes anything. Another example of a person who depends on time is Mr. Quentin. Many of the Compson family members have had some connection with time itself. The Compson family hold fast to time and signifies loss. Th .....

.... way to understand the Ewells is to understand how they live. For example, she states, "The cabin's plank walls were supplemented with sheets of corrugated iron, its general shape suggested it's original design: square, with four tiny rooms opening onto a shotgun hall, the cabin rested uneasily upon four irregular lumps of limestone. Its windows were merely open spaces in the walls, which in the summer were covered with greasy strips of cheese cloth to keep out the varmints that feasted on Maycomb's refuse." This description paints a very vivid picture of the cabin and also tells a little bit about the Ewells themselves. From this we can infer that the Ewells t .....

.... by Willa Cather in 1913, tells a tale of the oncoming future of the Great Plains. Although this tale tells about the great fortune of the plains, it forgets to mention the heartaches of the Native Americans. Willa Cather was born December 7 , 1873 in a town west of Winchester, Virginia.2 In 1884, the Cather's moved their four children to a town called Red Cloud in Nebraska where they arrived to a place uninhabited, but with much fortune and hard work ahead of them. 3 In 1890, Willa attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln where she gained the knowledge and creativity to write such beautiful work. In her first works, Willa's animosity towards N .....

.... in the late 1940's a poorly educated young black man, Jefferson, is in the wrong place at the wrong time: he is in a bar with two friends when they murder the white bartender. Jefferson is unfairly convicted of murder and sentenced to the electric chair by a white judge and jury. His defense lawyer, in an attempt to ward off the death sentence, labels him a "hog"--and it is this label that Jefferson's godmother wants disproved. She enlists the help of a plantation school teacher, Grant Wiggins, who at first isn’t too keen on the idea of helping a crook. Wiggins agrees to talk with Jefferson only out of a sense of duty--he is an unhappy, angry man .....

.... that can be made. While Piggy's main interests were in building shelters to be protected, and a sundial to know what time it was. There are may other things that Piggy did to attempt to bring order to the island just like a grown-up. When Jack was busy hunting pigs and dancing about in the blood that engulfed him, Piggy just wanted people to listen to him. He yearned for someone to listen to his ideas without asking questions: when he suggested moving the fire to the beach, he just wanted a ship passing by to see them. Piggy mimicked adults, he did not run about in a savage nature, he was good. Being the only boy that wasn't violent, shows how di .....

.... nine analogues which I consider typical contain some connection (direct or indirect) with Gawain himself. These analogues are: Gower's Tale of Florent (TF) The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnell (DR) The Marriage of Sir Gawain (MG) The Adventure of Daire's Sons (DS) The Ballad of King Henry (KH) The Ballad of the Knight and the Shepherd's Daughter (SD) The Ballad of Kemp Owyne (KO) Libeaus Desconus (LD) {one episode} Wolfram's Parzival (P) {the German version of Chretien's Contes Del Graal} (one episode) They are chosen because of certain common features which may help to illuminate Chaucer's use of motifs and incidents, and certainly not with an .....

.... Frank, experiencing the hardships of the Nazi invasion. Coincidentally, this young adolescent’s diary explains how Jews were mistreated during the war. Many Jewish people were taken to concentration camps where they were either put to work or killed. Others, who were more fortunate, remained hidden from the Nazis with the assistance of sympathetic and courageous people. Anne Frank and her family were among the fortunate few that went into hiding but were, unfortunately, later found. The cruelty of the Nazis not only affected those in Germany but people everywhere felt its impact. In addition to changes in the lives of Jewish people, normal existence chang .....

.... to Loomis Chaffee. “Loomis Chaffee!” I said, trying to keep my cool. Why and how did you choose Loomis Chaffee? Then they gave me that same old response. Well Mr.Spencer teaches at a prep school and. I didn't let them finish the sentence. “NO!” I exclaimed. I refuse to go to one of those prep schools, all of the little kids are phonies. But then as abruptly as that little conversation started, it ended. They said, “You are going come Saturday and you can't do a thing about it.” So then they say, “We will get you a train ticket for the earliest train out of Central Station.” I stormed out, knowing that I was defenseless against them I went straight into my .....
