companionship, the institution of marriage was
brought into existence. The idea of a "perfect"

Sir Gawain Sexual Advances
553 words
People do not like to be deceived. A person does
not come home excited because at work today they
were lied to, or tricked. Even though people
despise being deceived it is something that
happens to everyone at some point in their life.
The story Sir Gawain and the Green Knight
illustrates this point wonderfully. Any person can
be deceived. People from all walks of life have
fallen in one form or another. Sir Gawain was an
honorable man. He was brave, well-known, and
highly esteemed among his pee...

Spider Woman Human Community

It is often said that a great work of art is like
a dream, full of colours, greatness and splendour.
The playful authors of Kiss of the Spider woman
and Double Hook dont escape that definition,
providing theirs readers with a writing that
perpetually dance on the boundaries of fantasy,
oscillating between realism, fairy- tale and
dream. The resort to history and particularly to
myth is a prerequisite for the entrance in this
imaginary realm. In the two fictions, the mythical
element w more used ...

Analysis Of The Closet Scene In Hamlet Movie
821 words
Hamlet is often seen as one of the most well known
examples of an Oedipus Complex presented in
literature. The reasons for this is probably
because of the plot that resolves around the
revenge that Hamlet has against his step-father
Claudius and because of the relationship that
Hamlet has with his mother that is loaded with
sexual energy. Hamlets love for his mother is
especially exemplified by the Mel Gibsons
interpretation of the infamous closet scene.

The Old Man And Wormhole A Review
1,664 words
This story represents the basic existential angst
that infiltrates the late 20 th century American
conscience. Note the theme of the threatening
stranger who goes unrecognized by the innocent old
man, obviously an analogue for Uncle Sam, the
perennial archetypal figure so beloved of
editorial cartoonists and poster collectors. He
invites the "wormhole", which is here strangely
personalized, although it is a science fiction
concept. A wormhole is a "hole" in the structure
of the universe, which t...

Back Seat Father Eyes

We stopped at a red light, and without much
enthusiasm observed the pedestrians. A woman, as
she walked, fixed the white lacey gossamer slip of
her dress. It dragged out of her skirt, obviously
making her feel self-conscious. A short, stubby
man with an overbearing gut was nonchalantly
picking his nose as he ogle the lady adjusting her
slip. He stared at her, as though undressing her
with his eyes. I looked at my father, who was
looking right back at me. We both laughed. Being
only 8 years old, ...

Robert Aldrich Kiss Robert Aldrich Kiss Me Deadly Hammer
604 words
Robert Aldrich's Kiss Me Deadly came near the end
of the golden age of film noir, but its so
fundamentally wrapped up in the definitions of the
genre that its no wonder that the French film
critics that initially coined that term responded
to it as much as they did. You can feel the
fingerprints of this film all over the early
masterpieces of the French New Wave (particularly
Breathless, which seems to draw much of its
creative breath from here). The energy that this
movie sends off is so radioa...

Tells The Reader Moral Reasoning

It is our human spirit that separates us from
animals. Because animals lack a spirit of their
own, they have no conscience to guide them with
the inner sense of right and wrong. T. C. Boyle s
Carnal Knowledge portrays two people, Jim and
Alena, who live as if they lack a human spirit.
Like animals, they act as they please, satisfying
their own wants with no sense of morality. From
Jim s lies of being a vegan to Alena s hatred
towards mankind, we see an underlying theme. This
theme is that a huma...

In Dostoevsky's novels pain and some heavy burden

helplessness form Russia. And he depicts it not
with white gloves on, nor through the blisters of
the peasant, but through people who are close to

faith, or secular humanists who are so remote from
reality that even when they love humanity they
despise humans because of their own inability to
achieve or to create paradise on earth. His novels
