narration. Bull's son tells the story about how his father treats him and
the rest of the family. Ben talks about how his father is very dedicated
to the Marine corps and how he expects that since he is in the corps that
his son will follow in his footsteps.

Catcher In The Rye: Theme Of The World Having An Outward Appearance
.... he was a great guy. He actually
thought that there was nothing wrong with never washing his razor. I think
that what mad, Holden so made Stradlater was perpetrating in other word
being "phony" every time he went out all GQ after using that filthy razor.
Another instance is when he calls that girl in New York, Faith Cavendish,
that Eddie Birdsell had brought to a dance at Princeton. Anyway he called
her and she almost went off until Holden drooped Eddie's name. Then all of
a sudden "she was getting friendly as hell." The same person said "if you
think I enjoy bein' woke up in the middle-" was "getting an english accent

Uncle Tom's Cabin: Influence Of The Setting
.... The citizens followed the crowd and did not have
their own opinions. If some person's idea differed from that of the
majority, he/she would not dare speak up because they feared rejection.
Legree was one of the people looked up to and respected even though what he
was dong was totally wrong. Since he had power and money though, he was
admired. The only three people that actually did take a stand, if you will,
were George Shelby Jr., Augustine St. Clare, and his daughter, Evangeline.
These three characters opposed slavery and tried to do something about it.

What Makes Up A Work Of Literature
.... revenge on the Reverend Dimmesdale, who suddenly became sick.
Chillingworth uses his knowledge of the human mind and of medicine to
deduce that Dimmesdale's sickness lay not in his body, but in his mind: He
was holding a secret, a deep, dark, secret, that was destroying him. By
asking Dimmesdale if he were hiding something, Chillingworth angered
Dimmesdale and tried to torment him. This insight into human behavior,
that one's physical attributes can be determined by a mental condition,
makes The Scarlet Letter a classic.
Ken Kesey gives an excellent insight into human behavior in One
Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, in .....

Herman Wouk's The Winds Of War
.... Woolf expresses the conception
that when one begins to read literature he begins to enter different stages
of interpretation that will ultimately improve his pleasure and
satisfaction. It was obvious to me that I had in fact indulged in forms of
interpretation when reading literature, but it had never dawned on me until
reading Woolf's essay. Whenever I am subjected to something in literature
that is not fully comprehensive, I begin to engage in several different
forms of interpretation. The first stage would reflect much of the
philosophy composed in the essay 'Against Interpretation' whereas I, the
reader, would observe the conte .....

.... was strong and the character of the accuser was
in question, however, he was still brought to trial. Many of the
townspeople developed a lynch-mob mentality and did not want Tom Robinson
to be granted the right to trial. Atticus was not swayed by prejudice
against Robinson and fought for the trial, which he subsequently lost. To
further illustrate the town's prejudice, Atticus was scorned for
representing Robinson in the case. The strength of the towns prejudice is
evidenced in its quick move towards ending the trial and ultimately killing
Tom Robinson.
True stories exist from the beginning of American history of
