visibility as well as pressure equalization, also
increased the comfort and depth range of diving
equipment (Tillman, 27). Thus the development of
scuba added a major working tool to the systems

The moral ambiguity of the universe is prevalent
throughout Melville? s Moby Dick. None of the
characters represent pure evil or pure goodness.
Even Melville? s description of Ahab, whom he
repeatedly refers to monomaniacal, suggesting an
amorality or psychosis, is given a chance to be
seen as a frail, sympathetic character. When Ahab?
s monomaniac fate is juxtaposed with that of
Ishmael, that moral ambiguity deepens, leaving the
reader with an ultimate un clarity of principle.

Are Nothing Like The Sun the speaker uses a

flaws, but he loves her anyway. I believe that the
speaker expresses this idea in order to say that
beauty is only skin deep, and there is more to a
person than meets the eye. The beginning of the
poem is misleading. ...
