Each of the principles can explain the actions taken by the individual candidates and enlighten us on what may be to come for the primaries.

J D Salinger Museum Of Natural History
641 wordsIn The Catcher in the Rye, J. D. Salinger used symbolism throughout the novel. Three major symbols were the ducks, the Museum of Natural History, and Jane Gallagher. They all represent Holden in a way, and Salinger uses these symbols very well. While Holden is wandering around New York City, he asks many people about what happens to the ducks in the pond when it freezes. I think this really symbolizes Holden. He isnt really wondering about the ducks, he is wondering about himself. He wants to kn...

Special Treatment One Man

Played An Important Role Oskar Schindler
1,492 wordsThe paper I decided to do was on "Schindler's List." I have seen this movie four times and yet had not really noticed the many ways in which the director, Steven Spielberg, used the camera to emphasis a "million words." It was interesting, when watching this film from this stand point, how I was able to see the importance of the way the director uses sounds and color to make some much significant points of a film. I decided to emphasis the way certain close ups and facial expressions were used t...
