.... is unlike the other fisherman. While Santiago is going out to sea on the first morning, Hemingway includes numerous details about the setting. Some of the details are to inform the reader that the old man really enjoys and values the ocean. One way which Hemingway shows this is that Santiago refers to the sea as "la mar," a kind and beautiful yet sometimes cruel feminine creature. Younger fishermen refer to the sea as "el mar," which is masculine. Changing this to be masculine means that they do not feel that the sea has any beauty or significance other than for money. Another way that the author tells that the old man appreciates the ocean is in one of his des .....

In the story, Charlie, is subject to an experiment which increases his intelligence in hopes of knowing more in the soul purpose of impressing people to gain friends. Unfortunately some of his anticipations were not met. The main characters in the novel include Charlie, Alice, Algernon, and Fay, a character who did not make much of an appearance, but in my eyes believed, that she played a very important part in Charlie's involvement in trying to sort out his past and figure out his present and .....

.... the dishonesty of the tale's author. The two tales share the relationship between a jealous man, his wife, and a young scholar. In "The Miller's Tale" the scholar Nicholas is a "close and shy" (89) person who has a talent for "making love in secret" (89). His talent is illustrated when he turns his eye to the Carpenter's wife and makes love with her. The situation is very similar to "The Reeve's Tale." In that tale the Miller lets John and Alan, two scholars, who lost their horse from the Miller's own doing, stay at his house. However, since the two boys are "Headstrong…and eager for a joke" (110), Alan proceeds to rape the Miller's daughter, while John .....

By trading his soul for his youth, Dorian rids of the good inside of himself. The plot proves to us that evil does actually lie within .....

.... Death, in this sense, is exceptionally uncanny in that while it was expected and familiar, it is also very unimaginable for the narrator. Initially, when he walks by the Reverend’s house, the boy looks toward the window for the reflection of two candles; those commonly placed at the head of a corpse. Additionally, the old man was paralyzed and often told the child that he was "not long for this world" (9). While the narrator awaited the Reverend’s death, news of the event startled him: I knew that I was under observation, so I continued eating as if the news had not interested me…I felt that his [Cotter’s] little black beady eyes were examining me, but I .....
