.... one of the women fainted" . From that moment on he realized that people did not like his appearance and hated him because of it. If villagers didn't run away at the sight of him, then they might have even enjoyed his personality. The monster tried to accomplish this when he encountered the De Lacey family. The monster hoped to gain friendship from the old man and eventually his children. He knew that it could have been possible because the old man was blind, he could not see the monster's repulsive characteristics. But fate was against him and the "wretched" had barely conversed with the old man before his children returned from their journey and saw a monstr .....

.... the play is fascinating. Hedda becomes the social comment on the role of women in the society. She challenges the idea of the time period and stands instead for superior, aristocratic woman who is the salve to the pride of her caste,” (238). She cannot stand her position in society, and becomes bored with sitting around the house, waiting for Brack or Mrs. Elvsted to come around and visit. She becomes increasingly bored, even on her honeymoon, with a husband she apparently married simply to become married and have some sort of social position. She does not love Tesman, which becomes clear through the way she treats him. An example of this is her harsh at .....

.... of temporary power. Piggy also is able to use his glasses to start a fire from light from the sun. Intelligence is a key factor in Piggy's personality. His good nature is displayed to Ralph, mainly because he is the only kid who would show Piggy any respect, along with his friends, Sam and Eric. Piggy attempts to restore confidence in Ralph to take control as a leader, showing his good judgment by supporting the peace maker. Piggy's biggest faults lie in his insecurities, which were the probable causes for his physical and emotional weaknesses. His nick name was earned because he mentioned what the kids used to call him. The name Piggy is obviously r .....

.... is only seen by Hamlet himself, and in one scene by Marcellus and Bernardo, Hamlet’s servants. Similarly in both plays, the main characters are slightly suspicious of the actual powers these supernatural figures have. As the witches use their apparent powers to tell Macbeth the future, the ghost of King Hamlet tells Hamlet what has happened already. Hamlet states in one of his soliloquies “The spirit that I have seen / may be the devil” (2.2.598-599). Macbeth also has his doubts because when the witches tell him that he will be named Thane of Cawder, Macbeth himself had not known, but many people had. It is possible the witches could have known. In .....

.... He starts by stating that “A sweet smooth journey home … is what you seek, but a god will make it hard for you.” From what can be read, Tiresias feels no need ‘sugarcoat’ what he is telling for two simple reasons. First, he came willingly to Odysseus, sugarcoating the truth would be a waste of time. The second and more important reason is that he has good news for Odysseus, relative to what has happened so far. On the other hand, in Oedipus the King, Tiresias skirts around telling Oedipus the truth. In fact, he initially refused to tell Oedipus anything at all, seen in such lines as “You’ll get nothing from me” a .....

.... for they began to burst forth from their coffins. Their cries harmonized with those of our forefathers demanding change. "Monseigneur, the good God knows; but I don't ask it. My petition is that a morsel of stone or wood, with my husband's name, my be placed over him to show where he lies. Otherwise the place will be forgotten, it will never be found when I am dead of the same malady, I shall be laid under some heap of poor grass. Monseigneur, there are so many, they increase so fast, there is so much want. Monseignuer! Monseignuer!(Dickens, page 122) This poor woman could not even provide her husband with a proper burial. Her husband probably worked .....

.... He is very proud and in control of every move throughout the play. The control is not only of power, but also of the sense of his being who he is, a great warrior. In Act I, Othello has runs into Brabantio, who has come to kill him, but before anything could happen Othello said, "Hold your hands, both of you of my inclining and the rest. Were it my cue to fight, I should have known it without a prompter" (I, ii, lines 80-3). The power shown here is quite astounding. The nature of Othello's character is of a dark man. A dark man, not only because he is black, but also because his whole person is very mysterious. He is mysterious in that he believes .....

.... of brutality is evident at the poker night when he gets so angry and throws the radio out the window. Another example of his brutality is displayed when he beats his wife, Stella.
