.... friend of hers, to work at a tire shop. This is very ironic when she takes the job because she has tried to avoid tires and even got nervous when changing her car tire. Yet she ends up working in the shop and overcoming this fear with help from Mattie. This also is an example of how Taylor is a round character and grows throughout the story. Another irony near the beginning of the story is when Taylor's car breaks down and she is given an Indian baby, she finds herself in the predicament that she was trying to avoid in Kentucky. Back in Kentucky she was proud that sing herself off from the world. In the second chapter we meet Lou Ann a soon to be mother that .....

.... context of this controversial issue, this paper draws upon several aspects on how the media influences young women’s body image. This paper examines an exploration of the prevalence and the source of body dissatisfaction in American females and considers existing research that presents several important aspects regarding the nature of the connection between advertising and body dissatisfaction. From these distinctions, it will be shown that the media has a large impact on women’s body image and that the cultural ideal of a thin body is detrimental to the American female’s body perception that often results in poor eating pathologies. Body image can be def .....

.... they did negative. Both men were honorable, almost to a fault. For example in "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" Gawain agreed to be on time for his own execution: "Nor I know you not, knight, your name nor your court. But tell me truly thereof, and teach me your name, and I shall fare forth to find you, so far as I may, and this I say in good certain, and swear upon oath." (G&GK, pt.1, ln. 400-403) Gawain's agreement might have been honorable, but it doesn't strike me as particularly bright. Roland had the same type of problem. His honor also got him to into trouble. One perfect exam .....

.... caught but of the witches' prophecies, he was scared of them coming true and tried to stop them from appening. This whole play was inspired by fear and what it and do to a person. To begin, we'll address Macbeth's subsequent murders, following Duncan's. For Macbeth, he's just killed the King of Scotland and lamed it on his son. It worked and he became King, however he remembered the witches' prophecies. They claimed that Macbeth would be King, but it would be Banquo's children that would follow after him. This made Macbeth very angry, he risked everything to become King and after him none of his family will follow. Macbeth realizes that if something is .....

.... subject matter was tasteless or even repulsive, not to mention difficult to adjust to the silent screen. The first horror film on record was Frankenstein in 1910. Elements from Frankenstein are evident in The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. When the demonic somnambulist Cesare creeps into Lil Dagover's bedchamber, director Robert Wiene was exploiting a fear common to us all. Prone and sleeping the woman is uttlerly helpless. She is carried off into the expressionist labyrinth that Wiene used to symbolize the darkest torments of the human mind and soul. A beautiful woman is carried off by evil, a play on the Beauty and the Beast themes that would become so .....

.... go to in order to maintain it, and fate, what role does it plays in ones life. These themes are explained through the characters’ actions, but the themes are so closely related that one action can explain several themes at once. By the end of the story, each one these themes has been contradicted by his characters. When Marquez did this, he meant to go a step further and make the reader look at the hypocrisy of the town. Fate was used as an excuse for not intervening or warning Santiago Nazar of his murder. Instead they said that “it was if he was already dead” . One person attempted to warn him by slipping a note under his door but he never got aroun .....

.... appeared to hint that Hester married him because of social and economic necessity; he appeared to have married her because he though she would bring a little life into his existence. The matter appeared doomed in Hawthorne’s eyes, and unnatural. Hester doomed herself when she married Chillingsworth, certified that doom when she committed adultery, and finalized that doom when she concealed Chillingsworth’s identity from Dimmesdale. The effects these events had were the separation from her society, her lover, her husband, her child, and her own best self. She did it all in the name of sanctity, for true love, and she paid the price. Dimm .....

.... is the quiet guest who performs a miracle of his own in the retelling of his story. He is the Christ figure also in the view of the whole poem, as when Jesus was tempted by Satan in the desert. Like Jesus, the Mariner endures many trials, but his failure at the first costs him dearly during those which follow. The initial "temptation" was to kill the good seabird, which he does without conscience. And, like the temptation in the desert, the Mariner is parched with thirst, "Water, water, everywhere,/Nor any drop to drink." And when the Mariner tries to pray for salvation, he hears a demonic voice, like Lucifer: "I looked to heaven, and tried to pray; .....
