writing that Steinbeck is calling on previous
experiences. He is basically writing about what he

style shows what it was like during the Great
Depression. Steinbec...

Kan The principle of private happiness states that
an individual? s prosperity is weighed in
proportion to that person? s good conduct. In

that use this idea emanates from the fact that it
extends human reason, one that determines good
will and good conduct, outwards instead of
inwards, reason being automatic, inherent in an
individual. The above doctrin...
