Benvolio and Tybalt In life, there will always be someone who foils or contrasts someone else completely. It may not necessarily cause problems, but if not handled correctly, it easily could. In the play “Romeo and Juliet”, there are several characters that contrast each other. One prime example would be the differences between Benvolio and Tybalt. This is because they are so different in so many ways, and so there is much to talk about when explaining their personalities and characteristics.
Criminal Justice Ethics Simulation 1. My first chose in decision 1. Would be to challenge my partner about how he conducted the interview. Although, my partner might have strong beliefs that the two offenders committed the crime he was justified in how he went about properly conducting the interview. First, he broke the department policy by not video recording the interview which was essential to built a solid case if they had confess in which he claimed the two did.
They all tried to make it seem like Jay was a terrible man, when really, all he ever wanted was to be accepted by everyone. The one thing I will remember most about Jay was the amount of generosity he had. I’m not just talking about the endless nights of parties he had for people to be entertained and have a good time, however. Jay was one of the wealthiest men I ever knew, but he didn’t flaunt it like the other wealthy people I have known throughout my life. Jay didn’t spend his money on himself, and spoil himself with extravagant things.
Atticus is a moral and honest man who runs a well off household while, Bob is poor and spends all of his Families welfare money on alcohol for himself. But enough about To Kill a Mocking Bird. In the story of Romeo and Juliet there are two characters that stick out as FOIL characters they are Tybalt and Benvolio. They are very different many ways, but there are also some similarities there between them. First off Tybalt and Benvolio are FOIL characters which means they have to be different in some way.
Alienation Holden Caulfield, an interesting man, shows that many people show phoniness and how Holden despises them to a point where he alienates them. This book shows many themes, one of them being revolving around alienation and phoniness. J.D. Salinger’s masterpiece The Catcher in the Rye shows throughout the book that Holden alienates himself from other people because he fears the phoniness of adults. Stradlater, Holden’s roommate, shows phoniness by how he is a “secret slob” also how it annoys Holden to where he gets into a fight with Stradlater over his sloppiness with Jane, which leads Holden to alienating him.
Gatsby is a subject of gossip, He is extremely well known, but no one seems to have any verifiable information about him. In the party one of the guests Catherine drunkly told Nick that Gatsby is rumoured to be the nephew or cousin of Kaiser Wilhelm, the ruler of Germany during World War I and then adds that she would ‘hate for him to have anything on her’ which gives the reader the impression that maybe Gatsby is Dangerous The untastefull behaviour and conversation of the others at the party repulse Nick, and he tries to leave. At the same time, he finds himself ‘fascinated’ by the group. He then States that he has only been drunk twice in his life and at Myrtles and Toms party was one of those times which makes us question whether he is a reliable narrator in this particular scene or
This shows that he hates people that he may not know well enough. Another quote from him says, “Boy, this shall not excuse the injuries that thou hast done me; therefore turn and draw.” This quote is said right after Romeo has gotten married to Juliet. Tybalt wants to fight Romeo for being at the party but Romeo does not want to fight Tybalt because he is now his cousin. Romeo tries to tell him this but he doesn't listen. From this, you can tell that Tybalt doesn't listen to anyone.
Haymitch is for the most part the drunk of the town, it never really tells the reader how he managed to win his games, but he must have been crafty because from a physical standpoint he would not be able to defeat a career. “He was drunk,” says Peeta. “He’s drunk every year” (Collins 46). This shows that he is not drunk just during the reaping he is drunk all the time, which foreshadows some underlying problems. No one really cared about him, so he built up walls with drinking and now Katniss and Peeta break them down and help him.
Larry also has an affect on the heroism aspect of the novela. In my opinion Larry LaSalle is not a hero, because despite helping Nicole become a dancing star “he made me feel like a ballerina” and Francis “a table tennis champion”, he still has a horrible secret. He is not even ashamed of attacking “sweet young things”. He himself asked “does that one sin of mine wipe away all the good things?” But you could argue that he has ruined as many lives as he has helped. He doesn’t seem to have a conscience like Francis does; he is amazed that Francis feels bad at all ”you wanted to die because of that?” This shows that Larry could be still ruthless and that it didn’t mean anything to Francis.
Their existence is a purely selfish one with all their energy going into benefiting themselves in some way or another. Although this theme of moral emptiness is present throughout the entire novel, F. Scott Fitzgerald provides a foil through Nick Carraway. A showing of moral emptiness early in the novel is at the first of Gatsby’s parties that Nick attends. There is an overly extravagant amount of food and alcohol present, and it perfectly suits the mentality of all the guests there. The people there get so inebriated that they often do not remember whom they came with or even who their spouse is.
