Jewel’s Love Throughout all of As I Lay Dying, we see Jewel as the Bundren with apparently the most violent nature. He was constantly arguing and disagreeing with the other members of the family as they made the journey to Jefferson to bury his mother Addie. It wasn’t until the end of the trip that you really take a look in-depth at what kind of impact Jewel had on his family. We really start to notice through his random acts of courage and kindness that he is a valued member of the Bundren family. It proves that Jewel had only the best intentions and did everything in the best interest for the family.
Creon’s tragic flaw is that he is to prideful. Creon insists on killing Antigone because she disobeyed his decree. When Haimon questions his decision, Creon replies by saying,” I’ll have no dealing with law breakers” (792, 35-36). Creon is explaining to Haimon that he will not deal with any rule breakers and that Antigone will be put to die along with her traitor of a brother. Creon’s pride is what leads to the death of Haimon, his son, and the Queen, his wife.
Firstly, “all men hate the wretched; how, then, must I be hated, who am miserable beyond all living things! You, my creator, detest and spurn me”. Basically, he is saying that nobody likes the ugly and disfigured, so he must be the most disfigured thing on the planet, and that nobody likes him, even his creator. Another evident quote to show that he does not even have to stir trouble to be picked on is when he was introduced to the DeLacey family; “the family were not entirely happy… I saw no cause for their unhappiness; but I was deeply affected by it”. He was neglected and isolated by most of the DeLacey’s. Finally, a great piece of evidence is when the monster sees his own reflection in a pond; “how I was terrified, when I viewed myself in a transparent pool!
He asks for the proof and paper work from cops but they did not show him. By this I think that Misfit was right and he didn’t killed his father and if he did why didn’t the cops showed him the evidence. He was wrongly accused and the evidence were fake. “It was a head doctor at penitentiary said that I killed my dad but I know that’s lie ”. (page 234) .Misfit says that he knows that his dad died because of flu.
A voice from beyond the grave. ‘Shooting Stars’ by Carol-Ann Duffy is a poem which speaks of the horrific ordeal of a female Jew who died in the Holocaust. When people think of heroic acts and glory, they often think of the great battles fought and won. What they fail to consider is that the greatest heroic figures are often the most unexpected ones. Duffy’s haunting imagery and word choice tell a poem like no other.
In the beginning of the story, Brother recounts the day Doodle was born, saying that he was a disappointment as soon as he entered the world. The narrator was not satisfied with his brother, which resulted in the horrible things he thought about him. Brother said that “It was bad enough having an invalid brother, but having one who possibly was not all there was unbearable…” As a result, the narrator enjoyed torturing Doodle, threatening to abandon him multiple times. He even took Doodle to see the casket that was built for him, and forced him to touch it. The narrator basked in the control he had over his brother.

Question: Is Lady Macbeth's swoon, on hearing of the murder of the grooms, real or feigned - and the grounds of your opinion? Answer: We can readily understand how, upon a first reading of the play, having nothing upon which to base an opinion save Lady Macbeth's preceding words and conduct, one might think this swoon feigned, and but another exhibition of that presence of mind and determination of will by means of which she had succeeded in screwing her own and her husband's courage to the "sticking-place," which had not abandoned her during the murder scene (at first reading one might easily overlook the single unmistakable touch of weakness shown in the words, "Had he not resembled my father as he slept, I had done it,"), which had enabled her to take back the daggers and gild the faces of the grooms with blood, when the "infirm of purpose" refused to do it, which even that terrible task could not destroy, since, upon her return, hearing the knocking, she remembered at once that to be found fully dressed would show them to be watchers. But, having gone through the play and heard Lady Macbeth's troubled sigh "Naught's had, all's spent; Where our desire is got without content" (III. ii. 4-7); having observed her in the short scene with Macbeth after the banquet; and especially in the sleepwalking scene, we are satisfied that the swoon on this occasion is real.

Then all smiles stopped together.” What sort of commands did he give? Why did everybody’s smile turn upside down? This is the most revealing line in the poem. He might not have said he killed her but, as the reader, this line without a doubt, brings us to the thought of him having to do something with the murder of his wife. And the fact that everybody’s smile
