the state as necessary to maintain democracy by

J D Salinger Catcher In The Rye
927 words
Catcher in the Rye There s far more to the
censorship issue than a ban on sex and four-letter
words. I sometimes think that those of us who need
to be the most clearheaded about these matters are
planting the very trees that obscure our view of
the forest, says Dorothy Briley. According to
Briley, a vast amount more is needed than simply
vulgar language and suggestive material to censor
a novel. But this is the very reason why J. D.
Salinger s The Catcher in the Rye is frequently
being banned fr...

already learned these subjects in high school and
would be further exploring them in the survey
classes, if they choose to continue studying
English classes. In order to truly appreciate it,

The journey had been rough, and the passengers and
crew had little to eat or drink during the final
days. Indeed, the passengers requested that they
be allowed to disembark in Newport once it became
obvious that fierce winds would prevent the ship
from reaching New York as scheduled. I confess
that in America I saw more than America; I sought

Antigone, can be perceived as a conflict between
individual conscience and state policy. Yet the
issue of the play goes beyond that conflict and
touches the universal conditions of suffering,
religion, and loyalty. Through Antigone's
character which represents the spheres of family
loyalty, divine law, and human suffering,
Sophocles conveys the idea that a law of man that
violates religious law is not a law at all. He
expresses this idea by having ...

Ralph Waldo Emerson Henry David Thoreau

Transcendentalism was a literary movement in the
first half of the 19 th century. The philosophical
theory contained such aspects as self-examination,
the celebration of individualism, and the belief
that the fundamental truths existed outside of
human experience. Fulfillment of this search for
knowledge came when one gained an acute awareness
of beauty and truth, and communicated with nature
to find union with the Over-Soul. When this
occurred, one was cleansed of materialistic aims,
and was le...

infatuation rather than first love. What captured
my attention, in the book the most, was the
peculiar interaction between Zinaida and Volodiy.
Volodiy's behavior toward Zinaida is universal
expression of feelings of infatuation. Volodiy's
invisible expression of feelings toward Zinaida is
like a scientific fact to Zinaida that Volodiy is
