.... concentration camps. The Jews are forced to abandon their homes, all their earthly possessions, and eventually their humanity. In the face of savage abuse and insolent treatment, the Jews stand tall and hold on to everything they can for as long as possible, but it is just not plausible for them to survive under such horrid conditions. However, these mutations of character and morality cannot be accredited to weakness of the Jews' spirit, but they can be attributed to the animal-like treatment they receive. They devolve into primitive essences, with savage, animal characteristics that are necessary for survival under such conditions. In Night, Wiesel effec .....

.... father of all Greek gods,Zeus. Athena, goddess of wisdom, helped Odysseus find out whether or not Penelope still loved him, she disguised him to look like an old man so he could go into the town without people knowing who he was.

.... because none has or currently existed. Nor are there any plans whatsoever to create one. Ergo, the instability caused by an unstable government acts as a nascent to a tyrannical government. All the while Caesar refused the crown, the citizens rose more and more for him to accept it. Then, after Brutus had explained why he had murdered Caesar, the plebeians shouted: "Bring him with triumph home unto his house. / Give him a statue with his ancestors" (3.2.46-47). The plebeians happily accepted his logic and rationalizing. And finally, when Antony presented his dead friend to the public and implored them to understand why Caesar was in fact not ambitious; .....

.... to E.S. Shuckburgh we must examine which is more important “state law or divine conscience”. (Shuckburgh xviii) Antigone is a story about two people who choose to make choices that each are passionate about and the consequences that follow. I can argue that the choice made by Antigone was noble and honorable because she was standing up for what she believed in. Antigone was trying to do what she felt was the right. She was standing up for her family. I think that many people would feel the same way in her situation. Antigone wanted to offer her brother the burial that she felt he deserved. Although it did not seem as though she agreed with .....

The embarrassment Rachel feels is made apparent through the use of point of view, when her teacher makes her take the lost sweater in front of the whole class. Eve .....

.... to see a man named Homer Baron. Miss Emily was from the "Old South"1 and Homer was from the North. It was unheard of for a southern and a northern to be together. People began to say "Poor Emily", as she would be seen on "Sunday afternoons driving in the yellowed-wheeled buggy and the matched team of bays from the livery stable"2.
