The Puritan community in The Crucible was vulnerable in many ways and susceptible to irrational and panicky accusations of the Salem Witch Hunts because of their strict and constricting ways. The children in the community are treated very poorly and less than everyone else in the town. As the Salem Witch Hunts were essentially started by the children the fact that they were treated as lesser beings contributed to the communities demise. “He (Reverend Parris) regarded them as young adults, an until this strange crisis he, like the rest of Salem, never conceived that the children were anything but thankful for being permitted to walk straight, eyes slightly lowered, arms at their sides, and mouths shut until bidden to speak,” (Miller 3). Miller foreshadows the Witch Hunts to come.
Ponyboy just had to see Johnny kill Bob and that was enough to make him lose his innocence. People like Randy and Steve just resent and hate the world so much that that would cause them to lose their innocence as well. Someone could lose their innocence just by thinking bad thoughts. S.E. Hinton definitely does not agree with William Blake’s poem: The Lily because in The Lily, William Blake is saying that innocence cannot be abolished or destroyed.
Both were treated unfairly and weren’t liked by people. They both were used in some sort of experiment. Firstly, who ever you are and whatever you lack shouldn’t hold you back from having friends. Both Charlie Gordon and the monster had difficulties appealing to people and this was very disturbing to them. For example, the monster was hated by all and he knew that he could never have someone that looked normal because of the way he was.
This pursuit of knowledge and progress is not unlike that of the Nazi regime. Composed post WWII, the film also holds totalitarian overtones represented through Tyrell’s creation of a creature “more human than human” and Chew’s blindness to the ethical ramifications and moral obligations of his work (“I only do eyes”) in creating the eyes of the new human race (i.e. the future). Furthermore, Scott hints at the regressive nature of science through the interwoven elements of film noir and science fiction. The film also shows façades of twinkling, awe-inspiring lights with corrupt, dirty
In Catch-22, insanity is one of the major themes. Because there is no common law within the military, rules are different from tent to tent and from person to person. What’s also surprising is that there is no right way of thinking. None of the characters think the same way causing them to view each others who don’t follow their standards crazy. Catch-22 is a law defined in various ways throughout the novel.
He scared everyone he came into contact with and was labeled as the "breathless horror"(56) which made it impossible for him to socialize with any humans.Unlike Victor who chose to be alone. Valerie, in the other novel was isolated by ones who at one point, did love her. The creature was abandoned from the start, he was rejected and hated from the moment he opened his eyes. Complete isolation for Valerie doesn't happen until much later in her story. The horrible image of the creature's outward appearance physically isolated him from society.
The Author uses big and meaningful words to emphasize a quote that tells you this quote is somehow or another meaningful. Gatsby had more power since he was a German spy and it frightened people. “I see you’re looking at my cuff buttons”. I hadn’t been looking at then, but I did now. They were composed of oddly familiar pieces of irony.
On April 30, 1945 Adolf Hitler committed suicide. Most Jewish people emigrated to Isreal. Some citizens were afraid to go back for their relatives because they were afraid to be killed. When the Jewish people were taken to the United States they were staying in displaced persons camps while they were there they were encouraged to drop their culture and language.

Al-Qaeda’s attacks on random civilians, meaning civilians in which they know nothing about for the most part with exceptions to some cases, for not being Muslim or people they classify as Kafir. Kafir is a person who doesn’t believe in God or
Most of the cases never make it to court due to mishandling of the evidence or the victim drops the case because of the backlog of the tribal judicial system. Also, I found that there is little to no resource for victims to recover from the sexual trauma, such as mental health services and other outreach programs. The disruption of tribal tradition set the stage for addictions to alcohol, substance abuse, incest, violence, and sexual abuse. The sexual assault victims have a tendency to keep the assault a secret because the perpetrator is either a family member or a friend of the family. These victim suffers emotionally, and psychologically, especially if the victim is not supported by their family.
