.... Getting your eyes gouged out must be an excruciating way to experience pain. The blinding of a person is not only painful, but demeaning and tormenting as well. Imagine being blinded and having to experience the world all over again. The frustration of depending on other people and learning how to navigate your surroundings, with all the grace of a child. This kind of suffering could lead to suicide, and it would have, except Gloucester was blind and couldn't see that there was no cliff to throw himself off of. His enemies didn't want to kill him, but they already did, internally. The internal death is the final stage of mental suffering, but there ar .....

.... acquiescence of brutality. One of the faulty logic of the false dilemmas that when the Mikado declared each judge must be his own executioner he meant the executioner had to cut his own head off. This declaration of execution represents English acquiescence of brutality and the unreasonable laws and culture. William Schwenck Gilbert plays wording nicely on making jokes to the Japanese, but indeed to the English people. In The Mikado, the sparking lyrics and the vagaries of love set in a fanciful Japanese society. For example: KO-KO (Lord High Executioner of Titipu) is engaged to YUM-YUM (Ward of KO-KO). Even YUM-YUM doesn't like KO-KO, she can't refuse h .....

.... “This-can this be-her home?” This statement clearly shows the reader that Blanche thinks she is better than Stella’s lifestyle. This attitude is seen by the reader many times throughout the play as Blanche belittles others and their possessions. Blanche’s critical comments of her sisters house makes the reader feel less sympathy for her early in the play. As Blanche greets her sister later, one of the first statements she makes is “Open your pretty mouth and talk while I look for some liquor!” This illustrates how insensitive and demandfull Blanche can be at times. It also shows that Blanche is clearly not the shy and timid young lady she tries to be lat .....

.... hysteria takes place in one of America's wholesome, theocratic towns, which makes the miscarriage of justice such a mystery even today. The reasons the villains select the people they do for condemnation are both simple and clear. All of the accusers have ulterior motives, such as revenge, greed, and covering up their own behavior. Many of the accusers have meddled in witchcraft themselves, and are therefore doubly to be distrusted. (Warshow 116) The court convicts the victims on the most absurd testimony, and the reader has to wonder how the judges and the townspeople could let such a charade continue. The leading character of the play is Jo .....

.... shamanistic theme of transformation like the Eskimo, however the animals as subject matter related to family lineage as opposed to subsistence. These animals and spirits were expressed through crests, house front poles, and totem poles. The crests were drawn with controlled and modulating lines, and were often found on the exterior of their cedar dwellings, as well as blankets and skirts. The Northwest people made masks for their ceremonies, many of which had moveable facial features. They also made wooden effigy helmets and clan hats that represented the groups crest animal. In California, basketry was a distinguishing feature. The baskets had natural a .....
