Oliver Poem Mary Oliver World
1,350 words
Let us begin by recognizing that one comes to a
poem -- or ought to come- -in openness and
expectancy and acceptance. For a poem is an
adventure, for both the poet and the reader: a
venture into the as yet-unseen, the as-yet
unexperienced. At the heart of it is the not
knowing. It is search. It is discovery. It is
existence entered. 'You are lost the instant you
know what the result will be, 's ays the painter
Juan Gris, speaking or and to painters. But what
he is speaking of is true of art in g...

The Effects Of Sin Upon Arthur Dimmesdale
769 words
The most observable reason for his eventual
breakdown is the fact that he keeps his sin a
secret. Arthur Dimmesdale's sin was the same as
Hester's, except he never confessed. "As God's
servant, it is his nature to tell the truth, so
the years of pretending and hypocrisy were
especially hard on him. " (Bloom 28) Dimmesdale
also believes that his sin has taken the meaning
out of his life. His life's work has been
dedicated to God, and now his sin has tainted it.

Puritan Society Market Place
548 words
Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter is a
story of sin, guilt and salvation, centered in the
purely Puritan community of Massachusetts in the
seventeenth century. Within this community, we
found all the central features of the town, the
most symbolic of these is the scaffold; many souls
are condemned upon it and are subjected to intense
inquiry, where reality becomes a brutal
punishment. In contrast to the scaffold is the
forest beyond the town, here, there is no judgment
and reality is rela...

Make A Person Richard Cory
496 words
Through the poem, Robinson never hints to any
relationships that Richard Cory may have had.
There is no mention of lovers, family, or even
friends in the poem. I believe that Robinson was
trying to communicate that companionship is
essential to almost all people. Richard Cory was
hiding his need for relationships if he had the
need. Robinson may also have been trying to
communicate that although money can make a person
happy, they may grow tired of it over time. When
you become very used to one ...

open Western culture up to the discourses of Arab
culture. He begins by comparing those who
traditionally described the Orient or
Orientalists. These are all books about characters
who imagine that they can find in reality the
fictional world they found represented in books.
Their failure reveals that the books they have
read were misrepresentations of reality. The

Rose For Emily Homer Barron
1,626 words
... Faulkner had never attached any importance to
the character of manservant and, in all
probability, it simply never occurred to him that
anyone would be asking questions, regarding the
issue. Don't let us forget that Faulkner himself
came from the family of wealthy Southern
landowners, whose predecessors owned slaves.
Therefore, it would be rather naive to think that
Faulkner had a progressive attitude towards the
Black people. It is a common mistake of
critics-beginners: they automatically a...

centered around a rigid Puritan society, where one

emotions stay bottled up until they become
explosive. Puritan society however did not permit
this kind of expression. People had to seek
alternative means of relieving their personal
anguish and distress. In the Scarlet Letter,
