Comparison Of Mary Shelly's Frankenstein To Movies And TV Show's Frankenstein
.... Beautiful!," this is what
Victor said when he saw the monster before it was alive. Afterwards it was the
ugliest thing the doctor had laid his eyes upon. Unlike the movies, the monster
was very nimble and could do anything an actual living human could. The monster
chased after Victor in the wastelands to exact his revenge for his being.
Nobody would love or care for him so he decided to kill Victor as an act of
revenge.
The intellect of the monster was much greater in the story than in all
the T.V. shows and movies. He was able to read books and talk like any other
human. The monster composed poetry which was very beautiful. .....

Frankenstein: What Makes It A Gothic Novel?
.... desolate isolation. Yet there were still glimpses of happiness in
Shelly's “vivid pictures of the grand scenes among Frankenstein- the
thunderstorm of the Alps, the valleys of Servox and Chamounix, the glacier and
the precipitous sides of Montanvert, and the smoke of rushing avalanches, the
tremendous dome of Mont Blanc” (Goldberg 277) and on that last journey with
Elizabeth which were his last moments of happiness. The rest goes along with
the melodrama of the story. Shelly can sustain the mood and create a distinct
picture and it is admirable the way she begins to foreshadow coming danger.
Shelly does this by starting a terr .....

David Copperfield: A Novel Of Hypocrisy, Sexual Degradation, Selfish Exploitation, And Fraud
.... Rookery. (Which he never meant to published on any
account.) This complete title strongly suggests that this is one man's story
written for himself. It was also supposed to 'never have been published on any
account.' Later in chap 42 this condition is repeated: 'this manuscript is
intended for no eyes but mine.' Of course this is part of the fiction, after all
we are reading David's story ourselves when we reach this sentence. What is
David Copperfield about? I pose myself this question to help illustrate how much
of an autobiography this book really is, the simplest answer is of course that
it is about David Copperfield himse .....

"Billy Budd" By Herman Melville: Captain Vere
.... of the welfare
of his men, but never tolerating an infraction of discipline; thoroughly
versed in the science of his profession, and intrepid to the verge of
temerity, though never injudiciously so.” In fact, his downfall is
directly caused by his never tolerating an infraction of discipline.
Captain Vere instinctively disliked Claggert, a man who, for his
own reasons, falsely accuses Billy Budd of plotting a mutiny. While
meeting together, the charge would have come to naught if Billy Budd hadn't
killed Claggert by striking him in the head. After that, whether Billy was
innocent or not was no longer at question. Billy had .....

truth about Three.
The emotional make-up of a juror can change his desicision on wther

shoud not you look at al the facts to be sure beyond a shoadow of a doubt

12 Angry Men: Boy Is Innocent
.... the
yells of the boy.
After leaving his house, the boy went to see a movie to get away
from all of this. He was under total stress. I am sure he did not care to
look at the title of the movie. He probably just wanted in to get away.
This way his mind was focused on other things other than his father. He
thought that if he got away. he would come back in a better mood to be with
his father.
I have presented you with the three best points of evidence to
prove the innocence of this young boy. Think of this, how could a young
boy do this to his father? Even though he was a victim of abuse, l love is
still inside him. T .....

David Copperfield: The Many Differences Between James Steerforth And Tommy Traddles
.... James Steerforth
leads people to believe that he is a good person. There are many instances in
which he shows off his true colors. The first sign of his deceitful manner
occurs when David allows Steerforth to keep his money. Steerforth uses this
money to buy food for many of the students. Steerforth displays his selfishness
when he insults his schoolmaster, Mr. Mell, and gets him fired. Again,
Steerforth shows his stern personality again when David arrives in London, and
he is given a very small room over a stable. Steerforth confronts the hotel
employee, and David is given a much better room. The greatest example of
Steerforth .....

Summary Of 1984

of knowing if it really existed. He didnąt know if anyone felt the same way
he did, but he was sure there must be.
The Party was reconstructing society as a whole, and no one seemed
to notice. it was done so systematically and effectively, it was hard to
believe the world had ever been otherwise. Children were raised to love Big
Brother (the human face the Party took on). They were taught to turn anyone
in who showed signs of deviation from the Party, even their own parents.
they were born not knowing anything of the past, and without anyway of
finding out. Anything that was taught to them as .....

1984: Summary
.... is left up to the readers
discretion to decide whether he is the criminal or just a victim of a
totalitarian society. The first instance of Winstons "criminal" nature was
when he bought an illegal journal, quill and bottle of ink to record his
thoughts. Although he had so called "criminal" thoughts before, the journal
seemed to bring out the more daring ideas in him as to how to get free from
the Party's reign. This all indirectly led to his meeting with a woman
called Julia who shared his feelings and was either very brave or very
foolish because she was more open then he about her feelings. I believe
that these and the other ac .....

The Ironies Of 1984
.... them controlled with fear.
The next type of irony is Situation irony, which is when a character or a
sequence of events appears to be headed one way, but it ends up as the
opposite of what was thought. One example of this is Winston's general
health. From the beginning of the book, it is shown how horrible his health
is and is continually getting worse and more difficult, but as Winston gets
involved with Julia then he begins a metamorphosis into a more healthy
person. Another major example is the betrayal of many of the people whom
Winston thought were his friends, such as Mr. Charrington and even O'Brien-
-who both worked .....
