ENGL 204 [ 26 March 2013 ] Huckleberry Finn Discussion Board It is fair to say that Huck's “circumstances and his own moral nature make him the least carefree of boys - he is always “in a pickle” over the predicament of someone else”. Huck has to achieve some sort of balance between his natural inclinations and what he has been taught by society. From reading through this work multiple times, it would seem that Huck is almost obsessed with Tom. It is evident in the things he says such as, “I did wish Tom Sawyer was there”, or “I wish Tom Sawyer was here” and “I reckoned Tom Sawyer couldn't a done it no neater himself”. Those are a few examples which would seem to corroborate with this.
The distinctively visual is used throughout peter goldsworthys novel ' maestro ' and the painting By edward munch ' the scream ' 1893. there is some overlap between the distinctively visual techniques used by these writers and painters. This is done through the use of visual imagery, metaphor, exaggeration and the use of colour. The extended metaphor of peter goldsworthy “to describe the world is always to simplify its texture, to coarsen the weave: to lose the particular in general”, portrays that once you try to represent something, you lose something of its real life essence and that the act of writing about something in the world simplifies it.

The supposed “castle” of the Green knight was actually the Green Chapel in which the Knight tested Gawain’s life through faithfulness. The Green Knight believes that King Arthur’s men are all puny cowards, so Gawain requests that he takes on the challenge.

The Green Chapel is the place where Sir Gawain will meet his fate. The chapel represents the honesty of Sir Gawain.
The sense of despair is felt as Ralph reflects on this – “Samneric were savages like the rest…” The fact that he thought “the rest” were all “savages” implies that he thought each individual were identical characteristically in their violent ways. The similarity is further shown by their appearance. “The savages” were “painted out of recognition.” The function of the paint is to conceal the identities from “recognition,” and make their appearances similar as a way to symbolize their collective power. In the transformation of becoming a “savage,” the boys’ individual characteristics also faded away. Ralph reflected upon this when looking at Bill – “But really, thought Ralph, this was not Bill.
A Reality Check With the use of symbolism, Aldous Huxley creates a beautiful novel that in essence warns his audience of the future. Huxley’s clever use of symbols in the Brave New World, is often apparent, but just as often, they are deeper and less apparent. With his satirical references to sex, drugs, technology and the naming of his characters, Huxley relates his novel back to his readers and their future. Without recognizing these symbols, the readers could find this novel confusing and ridiculous; but with each symbolic object and person comes a clearer picture of what Huxley us really trying to convey. When reading the Brave New World, the sexual references are often the first things that stand out to the audience.
Nikita Chandra 10/29/13 3B Grendel There are many desires throughout Grendel where he tries to fit in with humanity and is actually interested in it.

Dominic also likes animals and this tells me that he is a caring person.
