Clockwork Orange Pure Evil
612 words
A Clockwork Orange To leave out the final chapter
of A Clockwork Orange is to change the entire
meaning of the novel; as Burgess says in the
introduction, his story is transformed into a
fable. Without the last chapter the reader is left
with a dark and pessimistic theme, that absolute
good and evil exist in this world and it is
possible for a man to be pure evil. Alex is
conditioned and unconditioned, and in the end all
indications point to a malicious life of crime. He
is a clockwork orange, p...

Caged Bird Sings Red Riding Hood

Censorship in School Libraries The most debatable
and controversial form of censorship today is the
banning of books in school libraries. Banning
books that educate students is wrong and selfish.
Censorship of books in school libraries is neither
uncommon nor an issue of the past. Books with
artistic and cultural worth are still challenged
constantly by those who want to control what
others read. The roots of bigotry and illiteracy
that fuel efforts to censor books and free
expression are unacce...

Derided By Vanity Driven And Derided By Vanity Story
931 words
In the short story Araby, the author, James Joyce,
uses many different techniques to convey the
discoveries that the main character realizes about
himself, and life. In this brief but complex
story, Joyce concentrates on character rather than
on plot to weave a sophisticated tale on many
levels. First and foremost, Araby is a story of
the discovery of what love is (and more
importantly what it isnt) - but beyond that, it is
a complex analysis of the ironies inherent in
self-deception. On one lev...

MacBeth Analysis of Fear Fear, this motivates us
to do many things no matter if they are right or
wrong. In the play Macbeth it was fear that was
the main motivating factor that influenced the
outcome of the play. This can be proved by the
subsequent murders that followed after Duncan's,
why were these committed? Because Macbeth was
scared of being caught and having to pay for the
wrongs he had done. Also look at Lady Macbeth, he

Death Of Gatsby Gatsby

Mr. Gordan, an esteemed English teacher, once said
" Literature is Life" . I had not been
able to grasp the reality of those words until I
read The Great Gatsby. After reading The Great
Gatsby, I understand that literature is written
through inspiration from our daily lives. In this
novel, F. Scott Fitzgerald portrays the themes of
morality and life versus illusion. Through his
excellent writing techniques, Fitzgerald reduces
most of the characters of the novel as seemingly

Ethics in Business 2081 (Sec. 1) PRESUPPOSITIONS
OF THE GAME THEORY Soloman believes that as the
game theory gets more sophisticated, we tend to
lose sight of the problem rather than solve it. He
sees the problem as how to get people to think
about business and about themselves in an
Aristotelian rather than a neo-Hobbesian (or even
a Rawlsian) way, which the game theoretical models
simply presuppose. Soloman discusses seven
presuppositions in the first section of his Ethics

between calling two grossly unequal deaths one

William Carlos Williams Audrey T Rodgers Icarus

Audrey T. Rodgers " Landscape with the Fall
of Icarus" touches upon the Greek myth of the
tragedy of Icarus. As we know, according to Ovid
and Appolodorus, Icarus, son of Daedalus, took
flight from imprisonment wearing the fragile wings
his father had fashioned for him. Heedless of his
fathers warning to keep a middle course over the
sea and avoid closeness with the sun, the soaring
boy exultantly flew too close to the burning sun,
which melted his wings so that Icarus hurtled to

On the Road Jack Kerouac, father of the Beat

society, documented his journeys across our nation
in the guise of Sal Paradise in his signature
novel, On the Road. Some felt that this book was
an attack on America, and others praise it as the
definition of Americas culture. To myself, it was
fascinating tail of adventure, people, and life.
Kerouac puts into reality what I only dream of.

to save both herself and her dead parents. Her
fathers death, three months after her mothers,

of these first two books but also between the
completed realization of her inheritance: in the
fine print of their wills, the poet fears to find
her fathers alcoholism and her mothers cancer,
