.... at attitudes, advances, states of affairs, and in some cases ( as in Jonathan Swift's A Modest Proposal ) the entire human race. The least offensive form of satire is Horatian satire, the style used by Addison and Steele in their essays. A much more abrasive style is Juvenalian satire, as used by Jonathan Swift in the aforementioned essay A Modest Proposal. To better understand satire as a whole, and Horatian and Juvenalian satire in particular, these essays can provide for further comprehension than a simple definition of the style alone. Horatian satire is noted for its more pleasant and amusing nature. Unlike Juvenalian satire, it serves .....

.... fighting really are. The families didn't see the absolute horror that was the front line. They didn't see the the thousands of men killed each day. They didn't see the millions of men who were wounded and probably wished that they were dead. Yet, they still thought that they understood what the war was about and what exactly was going on. The soldiers did see that, and more, everyday, everynight, never to not be faced with it. The phrase "war is kind" is mentioned several times throught out the poem, which is not what most people would use to describe the war. That is probably the reason that the certain phrase was used. By saying that war is kind, it .....

.... that he must deal with Brutus, and he has the shrewdness to take advantage of Brutus’s gullibility. Antony has his servant say, "Brutus is noble, wise, valiant, and honest" (III i 126). From this point, it is clear that Antony intends to flatter Brutus and to work upon those personal qualities of Brutus which represent his fundamental weaknesses. Antony then comes to the Capitol where he further flatters the conspirators by shaking their hands and saying, "Friends am I with you all, and love you all..." (III i 220). This act symbolizes that Antony has made a new friendship with the conspirators, but in reality, he is plott .....

.... offers aspects of tragic irony and sagacious insight with regards to everyday, small-town life as well, which serves to further enhance the value of his humour. Just as Leacock was interested in the techniques of humor, he was interested in the language of humor. Besides the careful selection of language, said Leacock, humor demanded a "great naturalness" of language, the use of phrases and forms so simple that writers straining after effect would never get them. [Critics] felt that one of the main reasons for Leacock's success was that his style was that of "a talker rather than a writer". Another said..."He talked to the world. And the talk was good." (C .....

.... to the subtle but definite and repeat action of this imagery upon our mind." (Spurgeon 335). These themes are all symbolized by the constant imagery of blood and water. "Macbeth is about blood." (Muir 273). Blood is mentioned often in the play and most times in reference to murder or treason. Shakespeare uses the symbol of blood to represent treason, murder and death. "Every act of blood is driven by fear." (Bloom 41). Blood is the most important imagery of Shakespeare's play, Macbeth. "The theme of Macbeth is reinforced by the imagery of blood." (Von Doren 338). Shakespeare mentions the word blood, or different forms of it often in the play. The .....

.... a Canadian. He is a Finn living in Canada. His body is in Canada but his name, and his soul still belong to Finland. When Jaanus first enters the play he insists that his name is Karkulainen. This immediately shows that although he lives in Canada he will still go by his Finnish given name. The differences between Jaanus and Jukka are shown when Jaanus and Jukka first reunite in Canada. Jukka Karkulainen now goes by the name of Yuki Crook, and thinks nothing of it. His name means very little to him. Jukka then tells Jaanus that there are no Fins living in Canada even though Jukka himself is Finnish. Jukka is now a Canadian. His heritage meant nothing to hi .....

.... about her sister. Maggie is extremely jealous of her sister; she does not like the presence of Dee in her house. As her mother says in the story, " Maggie will be nervous until her sister goes…eying her sister with a mixture of envy and awe." She believes that her sister gets everything she wants; all she needs to do is ask somebody for what she wants. She thinks that, " no is a word that the world never learned to say to her." From her point of view, Dee controls the world with her hands; she can do whatever she wants. Another example that exposes the reality of Maggie is that even her mother treats them differently. Dee is the perfect girl while Maggie .....

.... short story offers many interpretations. However, the structure of the story breaks down into two stages: past and present. By examining the archetypes within the story, it can be suggested that Emily’s over-protective father stands to represent Emily’s feminist struggle, the ongoing battle for women to have an equal place in society. Emily should be able to do as she pleases, but her dependence her father does not allow her to have that freedom. Her father’s over-protection is evident in this passage, “We remembered all the young men her father had driven away, and we knew that with nothing left, she would have to cling to that which .....
