Robert Frost The Road Not Taken
710 words
The Road Not Taken is perhaps one of Robert
Frost's most famous poems. This poem deals with
the choices you have to make in life. Whether it's
what to wear in the morning or what to do with
your life, everyone makes choices. When you look
at this poem carefully, you realize Robert Frost
is choosing much more than what road to walk down.
He is making a lifelong decision. One of the
reasons I am drawn to this poem is the imagery. A
forest is a very quiet place that suits this poem
well. Being in a...

The Role Of Mississippi River In Huckleberry Finn
1,462 words
Rivers are often associated with freedom and
growth as they are vast and constantly moving and
progressing. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is
no exception as Mark Twain beautifully paints a
picture of a boy who grows significantly during
his journey down the Mississippi River. In the
beginning of the novel, Huckleberry Finn yearns
for his freedom from people who hold him down such
as the Widow Douglas and Pap. Ironically, he finds
freedom in a place nearby: the river. When he
first begins to...

The Role Of An Individual In Puritan Society
527 words
Puritans honored God above all, and a Puritans
first duty was to serve God. A Puritan would not
do what he thought was good, but what was good in
Gods sight; making the word of God rule his
worship. His role was to serve God, and as long as
he did that he would be able to cooperate with the
rest of the Puritan society. To understand the
role of an individual in a Puritan society, you
have to first understand the Puritans. The
Puritans had many rules that served as guidelines
to keep them on task...

Presque Isle Island Made Him Feel Deer
945 words
It was the middle of summer in a small town called
Harvey, near the city of Marquette, Michigan. The
road (driveway) to my family? s cabin was lengthy;
it took a half-hour to get to the cabin from the
road. Our camp was a small, one bedroom cabin in
the middle of the woods. A creek flowed around our
eight acres. A half mile away was a rundown cabin
that we called "Jack's house. " My dad always said
that an old man named Jack lived there. He told us
that Jack watched us at night while we were asl...

Entry 1 I have arrived at my new home. The boat
trip was very rough, even to the extent of making
me lose track of time. That unclean, floating mass
of death was merciful enough to let me be. Too
many children have suffered and died on the way to
America. I miss Roger a little bit, and hope he
comes soon. I'm very lonely and I don't know what
I'll do to keep myself busy. Roger was nice enough

Save His Life Order To Save
628 words
Another important work Miller wrote, The Crucible,
takes place in Salem, Massachusetts, during the 17
th century. It is a time when jealousy and
suspicion poisoned the thinking of an entire town.
Neighbor turned against neighbor when events
happened that could not be explained. Accusations
turned into a mad hunt for witches who did not
exist. One of the main characters of the play is
John Proctor, a well-respected man with a good
name in the town. As the play develops, John
Proctor's moral dilem...

The Effects Of Sin Upon Arthur Dimmesdale
769 words
The most observable reason for his eventual
breakdown is the fact that he keeps his sin a
secret. Arthur Dimmesdale's sin was the same as
Hester's, except he never confessed. "As God's
servant, it is his nature to tell the truth, so
the years of pretending and hypocrisy were
especially hard on him. " (Bloom 28) Dimmesdale
also believes that his sin has taken the meaning
out of his life. His life's work has been
dedicated to God, and now his sin has tainted it.
He feels that he is a fraud and is ...

The Issue of Death in poems by Robert Frost While

Huck And Jim Duke And The King

How Huck Finn Uses His Quick Wit The topic in
which I am going to explain is how Huck Finn uses
his quick wit in escaping situations, which he
does a lot in the book, Huckleberry Finn by Mark
Twain. A few examples would be when he runs away
from his father, when they find and steal the
robber s ship, and when the duke and the king come
and their whole ending part. When Huck runs away
from his father would be an example of using quick
wit. Huck was being beaten and treated so badly
that Huck deci...

Tree Fort Day Cabin
463 words
As a young child I had a most favorite place. It
was a tree fort that I built with my big brother
on our wooded property up north near a cedar
swamp. Back in those days I would play all sorts
of games there with friends that I would bring up
to our cabin. Behind the island there is a swamp
with little islands that we give nicknames to. It
is a great place to play and forget schoolwork.
The tree fort is not big. It is about 10 feet off
the ground. That was high then but not any more.
It is about ...

Meaning Of Life Chris Mccandless

Into the wild is more morbidly fascinating than
anything else. It is a journey into the psyche of
a young man who, with seemingly all of the
advantages that late Twentieth Century America can
arm one with, decides to disappear into the
flotsam of the country playing the part of an
enlightened hobo (he takes the moniker Supertramp
as a way to christen his new identity). When I
read I this book I was infuriated with Chris

Left Arm Left Hand
605 words
Although golfers end the day on the 18 th green,
their day begins on a tee box. A drive, the first
hit off a tee toward the objective hole, may seem
very routine and insignificant, but, in fact, it
is the most important shot taken on each hole. If
golfers hit a long drive into the nicely cut
fairway, they have only to hit the ball off the
nicely cut grass on usually a clear path to the
hole. But if they hit a drive into the woods, then
they have to make sure the ball does not hit any
trees, bran...
