In contrast, Asagai is patriotic because he is proud of his culture as shown in his words after handing Beneatha her gift, “I shall have to teach you how to drape it properly” (32.) He also tries to encourage Beneatha to embrace her roots by commenting on her unnatural hair as stated in the quote, “And so to accommodate that — you mutilate it every week?” (32). From this quote, it’s shown that Asagai thinks of assimilation as something negative and Beneatha should not become submissive into it. Asagai and George also contrast in how they act towards Beneatha. Asagai is benevolent, while George is egocentric.
Hemingway implements syntax and diction to reveal how the man manipulates his girlfriend and ultimately pressures her into having an abortion. The man uses syntax, short and simple sentences, to make it seem like he is confident and that what he says is irrefutable. His confidence makes his arguments seem accurate and it helps establish him as the leader in the relationship. He says, “We’ll be fine afterward. Just like we were before.” These lines are both short and even though he is making deceptive promises they sound confident and honest.
How far do the sources suggest that, in the Jackson Marriage case of 1891, it was Mr.Jackson who had ‘right upon his side’? Sources 10 and 11 agree with this statement as far as giving an image that Mr.Jackson was being a good husband, treating his wife right and following the law as he had the right as her husband to take her away. As in source 10 Mrs.Jackson admits that he is ‘kind and considerate’ to her which suggests he is doing his rightful husbandly duties. Source 11 adds to this as there are chants of Mr.Jackson being ‘a jolly good fellow’, which protects the same image of him being the righteous one. Also again sources 11 and 12 fight in a similar way in favour of Mr.Jackson.

Michelle Smith HSC 1102 (Midterm paper Gandhi vs. King) March 18, 2013 Both Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. used a policy of nonviolent resistance to campaign for change. Instead of countering violence with violence against their aggressors, they chose to resist unfair laws and call for collective social reform by nonviolent methods such as boycotting. After the British forced the Indians to become dependent on British cloth imports, Gandhi led a complete Indian boycott of British clothes. Similarly, King later organized a complete boycott of buses to promote his cause until the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that segregation on public buses was unconstitutional. A major difference was that Gandhi campaigned against unjust laws of the British government, while Martin Luther King Jr. campaigned for rights that "colored" people were already lawfully supposed to have.
Emma and clueless – - Use of an omniscient narrator to allow reader to reassess their impressions of the characters. - Occasional intrusive comments by the use of irony (mr knightley’) - Over loud, face paced, non diegetic, over bright colours - Music establishes mood and highlights the emotional states of characters - Mr knightley provides correct evaluation of the characters’ behaviours and personal worth - Emma’s lack of perception and the pain she caused Harriet was the first stage of self-awareness relinquishing by Harriet of mr elton’s memorabilia and her confession that she loves mr knightley forced emma to realise she loved him - Emma needs to accept her personal faults and demonstrate social responsibility through her actions,
On the other hand, if he was elected to the presidency, it would be a flattering and glorious reward for his lifetime of public service, and he would obviously need a wife to hover about you, to bind up your temples, to mix your bark and pour out your coffee.” (page 176) Abigail Adams supported her husband in every possible way; even if it was not something she believed in. 6.)

In the Western culture, love marriages are normative and there is “a relation of dominance in which” arranged marriages are “characterized by difference or lack- a quality of ‘not-quite-ness’” (O’Brien and Szeman 79). The commercials identify authoritative love marriages as the powerful centres, where deviations like arranged marriages are ridiculed through the use of exotic music and scenery. The Western culture possesses dominant ideologies which are highlighted through the consumption of the profit generating cultural product. The groom-to-be derives pleasure from consuming the Doritos product regardless of how it reinforces the dominant
