.... most often associated with Daisy is white. Usually white can help convey innocence and purity. In this case white also seems to represent cleanliness, which in Daisy’s case is also conveyed as a sign of elegance and wealth. “Sometimes she and Miss Baker talked at once, unobtrusively and with a bantering inconsequence that was never quite chatter, that was as cool as their white dresses and their impersonal eyes in the absence of all desire.”(17). White is also a color that I find to be lacking depth and substantial emotion. Much of Daisy’s personality is never really revealed in the book and the use of white helps to shroud her in more mystery, as its puri .....

.... about Crane's Red Badge of Courage? I found out that war turns boys into mature men, the real dialect and slang used during the war, and what it's like to be a soldier in the Civil War. The whole novel covers only two days in the life of Henry Flemming, the main character. In that amount of time, war can turn a boy into a man. It does not physically turn an individual into a grown man, but it mentally matures them. War matures boys into a men is by experiencing new, unpredictable environments and adjusting to unfamiliar smells, sounds, and emotions. Think about it, being there on a battlefield witnessing deaths of friends and comrades would have to .....

Compared to Jane who "never [sees] a fault in any body" (11), she doesn't believe only the best in everyone. She is usually right about people.

.... through life. To best examine and explore the progress of Jane's emotional and temperamental development, it is important to construct a frame of reference, to have a base from which to work towards her final character. Her childhood home, Gateshead provides the groundwork of her emotional/character being, which at the beginning of the story is an isolated creature, devoid of loving and nurturing contact and shunned by humanity. Two excerpts from her stay at Gateshead illustrate this fact, her reading of Bewick's “History of British Birds,” and her punishment for striking Master John, the stay in the red room of Gateshead. In the opening scene, Jane is fo .....

He tried to make an impression on these people. Many to these people went to these parties "...without having met Gatsby at all" (ch. 3 .....
