As I Lay Dying The Love Of Family
473 words
Ah, love. Love is so often a theme in many a
well-read novel. In the story, As I Lay Dying, one
very important underlying theme is not simply
love, but the power to love. Some of the
characters have this ability; some can only talk
about it. Perhaps more than anyone, Addie and
Jewel have this power- one which Jewel, by saving
his mother twice, merges with his power to act. As
the Bible would have it, he does "not love in
word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth"
(1 John 3: 18). Jewel, A...

Martin Luther King Superhuman Strength

The word hero is not used today as it was many
years ago. Back then a hero was a warrior who
fought and killed his enemies to save many lives.
Today we know there are many types of heroes. For
example, Martin Luther King changed the lives of
many and was considered a great hero though he
never fought or killed anyone. A hero is anyone
who changes anyones life in a positive way. The
classic definition of a hero is a strong
courageous man who fights evil to defend the lives
of the innocent. Many t...

twist on characters by providing details in such a
way that it changes the readers view on major
characters as opposed to how he previously
described them. For example Nora, the protagonist
seems somewhat nave and immature at first; yet she
eventually captures sympathy as the play reveals
some of her secrets. The focus of this paper is
about Krogstad. Although depicted as rude and, he

of marijuana would be beneficial to our society,

Extra Ordinary Doesn T

A hero is a person that does something
extra-ordinary for a positive cause. I believe
Beowulf fits this definition for many reasons.
First of all, Beowulf is always loyal to his
country, and was never upset with anyone for a
foolish reason. He also defeats many monsters that
have caused great harm, with Grendel being one of
his big accomplishment (a big monster that killed
50 people in one night). He is a brave, witty
warrior that deserves to be known as a hero. One
quality of being a hero is wi...
