.... and feeling. Many of her subjects are taken from right out of the very poverty stricken, ignorant, communities they have endured their whole lives. One technique I noticed in her work is the ability to show a grand view by including a person with a smaller object to compare it by. Another technique I recognized was the texture. White does a good job of getting to a good angle in order to include as much detail as possible. I think it is very interesting looking at her pictures taken from during the war. I would like to go downtown to take some grand view photographs, including lots of detailed subjects. I like to develop the pictures in black and white becau .....

.... easily have been deduced as evil, or the "bad guy," as she was by the townspeople. That is, she was convicted of adultery, a horrible sin of the time, but maybe not even seen as criminal today. As for punishment, a sentence to wear a scarlet "A" upon her chest, it would hardly be considered a burden or extreme sentence in present day. Or Hester can be seen as rebelling against a society where she was forced into a loveless marriage and hence she would be the "good guy," or girl, as the case may be. Also the townspeople, the magistrates, and Chillingworth, Hester's true husband, can be seen in both lights. Either they can be perceived as just upholding the .....

.... ‘American Dream’ give the appearance of perfection. However, for many, their lives are not as ideal as what they seem. Issues such as sexual abuse, mental illness, alcoholism, adultery, greed and restlessness, affect the lives of even those who appear to live the ‘American Dream.’ In F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novels The Great Gatsby and Tender is the Night, the characters Daisy Buchanan and Nicole Diver give the appearance of a charmed existence, but it is in fact flawed. Daisy Buchanan was raised in a wealthy American family, and had the appearance of a perfect upbringing. In reality, Daisy did live a “ white̶ .....

.... pilgrims bewitched inside a rotten fence. Pilgrims are usually people who travel to a holy place, so why the choice of words? Conrad further explains in the following lines when he says, “The word ‘ivory' rang in the air, was whispered, was sighed. You would think they were praying to it.” In their rapacity the “pilgrims” have placed ivory as their God, a realization that has greater meaning towards the end of the book. The significance of ivory begins to move away from avarice and takes on a purely evil connotation as Marlow approaches those hearts of darkness: the Inner Station and Kurtz. Kurtz's relationship with ivory seems to have been reiterated .....

.... Bluestone Road, outside of Cincinnati, Ohio. Sethe and her daughter, Denver, have lived in this house for eighteen years. The story begins in the year 1873, but there are many flashbacks to the year Sethe attempted to run away, which is in 1856, four years before the start of the Civil War. Sethe, Paul D., and Baby Suggs were all slaves on the same farm in Kentucky, which was ironically named Sweet Home, though for them, it was neither home nor sweet. Plot The plot of the novel is loosely based upon the life of a former slave named Margaret Garner, who tried to kill all of her children when they were captured by her slave owner, and she did succeed in killin .....

.... Roman history became one of his favorite subjects (www.webring.org). When Byron's father died he became the sixth Lord Byron, at the young age of ten. His father's estates included land in Newstead, Nottinghamshire and Rochdale in Lancashire, with other properties in Norfolk. Newstead, the inherited home in England, was an absolute wreck. The Wicked Lord (George's grandfather) hated his sons, so he set about ruining Newstead so his sons would have no proper estate. He used to let swarms of crickets run rampant through the house (www.byronjournal). Because of this Byron's mother moved them nearby to Nottingham. They were very poor. The Byron estate was .....

.... he has created base on his dream, and his dream has elicited several qualities in Gatsby. Such dream and qualities make Gatsby appear to be the "knight in the shining armor." However, such dreams and qualities also lead Gatsby to his tragic end. For one thing, Gatsby is amoral in many ways. First, he is a crook, a bootlegger who has involved himself with swindlers like Meyer Wolfshime, "the man who fixed the World Series back in 1919."(78) Secondly, he is dishonest, because he tells lies about himself. "I am the son of some wealthy people in the middle-west-all dead now. I was brought up in America but educated at Oxford because all my ancestors have been e .....

.... daughter, one can see these conflicts more clearly and determine why they exist. Ying-Ying St. Clair was born into a rich family. She was very pretty when she was a young girl. She was educated like every Chinese woman used to be: To be obedient, to honor one's parents, one's husband and to try to please him and his family. Ying-Ying was not expected to have her own will and make her own way through life. The result of this education was a disaster. She was married to a bad man who left her after a short time to follow other women. Her love for him turned to hate, and she killed her unborn baby. This act gave her remorse for all her life since she considered .....
