Thoughts on Charles Tansley in To the Lighthouse
In To the Lighthouse, Mr. Ramsay serves as a role
model for Charles Tansley, and thus has great
influence on Tansley's career and views toward
women. Because Tansley is from an "unsuccessful"
family, he needs a role model for success, which
he finds in Ramsay. Tansley is staying at the

his dissertation and to have access to Mr. Ramsay.

Ethan And Mattie Ethan Frome
714 words
Ethan Frome is a very well written book with a
story of love, intrigue, suspicion, and hatred. In
the story, there are many people, but only three
stand out to me, plus an animal. I will tell you
of one scene in the book that shows the cat puss
as a symbol and a familiar. In the story of Ethan
Frome, there are three main characters, Ethan
From, his wife Zena, and Mattie, Zena's relative.
Ethan was a man of little character. Being from a
small town in New England, he and his towns people

Rusty Fence Barely Separated House
689 words
The small townhouse always had the inviting
fragrance of freshly cut flowers in the morning
and the delicious aroma of my mother's secret
recipes in the early evening. Anyone who entered
was immediately greeted by the fragrances and
found themselves staying a little longer than they
planned. The delicate light from my grandmother's
antique lamp beckoned sleep and the faded striped
cushions on the worn living room couch held many a
drowsy head in those days. The inside of the house
consisted of r...

place at the time of the Reformation. The

techniques, lighting, and the framing of the shot.
Camera techniques include aerial, deep focus, pan,
shallow focus, slow motion, soft focus, and the
tracking shot. Lighting is more than just shining

Social Psychology And Breaking Norms

In our society we have a number of society norms
that we abide by. For example, there is an

others. When a social norm is broken people may
respond with alarm, humor, fear, irritation, or an
array of other emotions. When you think of a norm,
you are probably thinking about being normal. But
in psychology terms, norm means, a standard or
