Confessed Her Love Confessed Her Love For John Proctor
418 wordsJohn Proctor, in my eyes was all around a pretty good man. Except for the fact that he committed adultery with Abigail Williams, when she was his household servant.

These hardships produced a restless society. The society then looked for something or someone to blame (Fried, 39). They found someone to bl...

Miller himself said, "No critic seemed to sense what I was after [which was] the conflict between a mans raw deeds and his conception of himself; the question of whether conscience is in fact an organic part of the human being, and what happens when it is handed over not merely to the state or the mores of the time but to ones friend or wife. " The idea of conscience in the play The Cr...

Black And White Maltese Falcon
2,037 wordsThe Maltese Falcon In my opinion, The Maltese Falcon is the best example of the detective story of the early years of XX century, which was followed by the creation of movie.

Hammett wrote as if everyone wanted to talk: smooth, assured, and witty. He wrote with a graceful masculinity that made being bad beautiful. H...

These two stories may appear to be totally different but they do in fact share many similarities. Three of the characters...
