a respirator, a newborn child with AIDS, and a
father in a coma; all put to death by respectable
doctors with the O. K. of their families. But is
really |O. K. X? Euthanasia, or doctor-assisted
suicide, has become as common as jumping off of a
fifteen story building or taking a gun to one+s
own head. Certainly society frowns upon suicide,
but yet putting an old lady or a man in a coma to
death is being accepted every day. Society knows

Great Gatsby American Dream
408 words
Fitzgerald essay on Great Gatsby Fitzgerald does a
good job expressing this preoccupation with the
problems of wealth in The Great Gatsby, for
example with the central importance of money, the
dreams, the magical expectations, and of course,
the carelessness. Throughout the novel the central
importance of money was flaunted, misused, and
unappreciated. Gatsby used his money as more of a
service than as a necessity or through responsible
acts, because he doesn t want any trouble with
anybody. Luc...

Jesus Christ Superstar Gethsemane This song really
confused me and majority of it got me upset. I
felt it to be a contradiction to what I ve been
taught about Jesus for the past fifteen years. The
lyrics presented Jesus as though he didn t want to
die for us and that he just wanted to back out of
God s plan. It also specifically states in the
verse, Why then am I scared to finish what I

Handmaid Tale Margaret Atwood

The creation of Offred, the passive narrator of
Margaret Atwood? s The Handmaid? s Tale, was
intentional. The personality of the narrator in
this novel is almost as important as the task
bestowed upon her. Atwood chooses an average
women, appreciative of past times, who lacks
imagination and fervor, to contrast the typical
feminist, represented in this novel by her mother
and her best friend, Moira. Atwood is writing for
a specific audience, though through careful
examination, it can be determin...

Golding Novel Lord Lord Of The Flies

The ID, Ego and Super EGO Many have looked at
Freud's description of the human mind as something
that describes people and the way of their
behavior. Freud s division of the human mind
consists of three things: the ID, the Ego and the
Super Ego. In William Golding s novel, Lord of the
Flies, these Freudian concepts can be compared to

In Dubious Battle Most people? s first impression
when reading In Dubious Battle, by John Steinbeck,
is that it is meant to act as communist
propaganda. Some even believed that Steinbeck
himself was an advocate of the resurgence of the
communist party in the first half of the twentieth
century. Whether he was or not is a moot point;
the fact is that In Dubious Battle is not
communist propaganda. Several themes are present
that relate to the American people then and even

Stanza Of The Poem Third Stanza
966 words
This poem was very hard to make an argument for to
tell what it means. The poem deals with the idea
of depression, hurt, weighted choices, and death.
It is the most uplifting of poems, but I don t
think Emily Dickinson was trying to make it that
way. She uses the idea of winter to represent
darkness, the comparison of the weight of a choice
the heft of Cathedral tunes. She uses a line,
which states that there are internal differences
to represent emotional not physical problems. She
also say s t...

Winter Sundays Robert Hayden
516 words
There are particular poems that seem to catch
peoples eye, but while we read the poem we drop
our attention. It is very difficult to evaluate
these types of poems. Robert Hayden s, Those
Winter Sundays, is the complete opposite of the
type of poem that was just described. The title is
quite bland, and the title is one of the first
parts of a selection that seem to catch the eye.
As children, perhaps the only thing that made a
difference to us in books were illustrations. As
we get more mature we...
