This demonstrated that Boo had no connections to anyone outside his house since he was not allowed to have one which made misery rain on him. Lastly Boo was always discriminated and never appreciated for anything he had done to serve society. As the people of Maycomb always on thought of Boo being a bad person, he was shown evidently that he served society as a secret hero such as when he had saved the children from Bob Ewell; “Mr. Ewell was tryin’ to squeeze me to death . .
I close my eyes and see frogs and beetles lined in the trenches filled with knee-high water. I can smell the pervasive stench of feces, body odor, and death. I see the maggots, and I feel the cold mud when I close my eyes. I still feel my body itching from the lice outbreak that never got under control because of our tight quarters and unsanitary conditions. I see men begging to have their feet removed, the flesh on their feet rotting away because of the chronic wet conditions in the trenches.
The narrator states when Doodle dies, “Limply, he fell backward onto the earth. He had been bleeding from his mouth, and his neck and the front of his shirt were stained a bright red.” (Hurst 354) as opposed to when the scarlet ibis dies, “Its long graceful neck jerked twice into an S, then straightened out, and the bird was still.” (Hurst 351) is very similar, too. Hurst also uses nature for symbolism, “I lay there crying, sheltering my fallen scarlet ibis from the heresy of the rain.” (Hurst 354). The book gives the definition of “heresy” as “mockery,” which can be seen as the rain being society or other people mocking diversity even after death. Hurst uses foreshadowing in this story as well.
There is no room for compromise in the world he now inhabits. Only 24 years old and not a risk-taker, as demonstrated by his chaste relationship with Martha, Cross has the safety of his men in his hands, and he cannot juggle two priorities; as the text states, “He was just a kid at war, in love.” Cross’s method of symbolic reasoning finds further emphasis in his digging of a foxhole that night and crawling inside, thus repeating the fantasy playing out in his head in the moments before Lavender’s death. There he comes to the realization that Martha “did not love him and never would,” a fact obvious to the story’s readers. With his love for Martha forbidden to him — or at the least, transformed into a “hard, hating kind of love” — Jimmy Cross turns to what can substitute as its
“Someone had challenged their god, humiliated him” (42) Hassan points the slingshot towards Assef, and it is very significant. Assef is frightened, but more importantly, a Hazara is standing up for himself, not a Pashtun. 7. “I never slept the night before the tournament. I'd roll from side to side, make shadow animals on the wall, even sit on the balcony in the dark, a blanket wrapped around me.” (49) Amir’s insomnia is significant throughout the novel.
Explaining what Ruthie has done, she tells him that he'll need to go far away. Tom agrees. Ma hasn't seen Tom since he has been in hiding, and there is no light in the cave, so she touches his face to remember him. He tells her that while he has been alone, he has thought a lot about Jim Casy and what he taught. The gray clouds bring torrents of rain to the land.
While the master plan to blind the Cyclops was incredibly successful, he did something severely wrong while leaving the island. Not knowing of the consequences that might occur, Odysseus shouted his real name to the Cyclops, which essentially caused him a great deal of trouble afterwards. ”Hear me Poseidon…Grant that Odysseus / Son of Laertes, / May never reach his home on Ithaca. “ (Book 9, 22-25) prays Polyphemus. Thus Poseidon further delays Odysseus’ trip and makes it just that much harder for him to return to Ithaca.
Which is why he remained silent for a decade after his voice was played over and over again on the news. Dennis Rader knew that strangling victims and binding them was wrong, he feared police catching him, and Dennis didn’t care if he lost the respect of his church, his scouts or family. Rader also let the sexual pleasure he gained from the crimes control his actions. It was his choice to plan out the murders and follow through with them. This is a perfect example of the rational choice theory (Siegel, 2008 p.84).
There are not many people on the island, so he wonders what child the angel sees upset or hurt. Finally, a few days later it struck him. He realizes that he longs for his father each day and the angel is the only one who can see that. Tyson truly dislikes the rain and is in complete shock that he is the reason for it. He wants to be happy, but his father is still not there.
In the town of Maycomb, you cannot run from judgment. For example, Boo is just a man who has not come out of his house in forty-six years, and Scout sees him as some kind of monster. Everything Scout hears about Boo, she believes. “When people’s azaleas froze ina cold snap, it was because he breathed on them. Any stealthy crimes committed in Maycomb were his work.” (Lee 10).
