Jay Gatsby is also motivated by love, however it is by the love he has for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan. As he tries to win Daisy over, Gatsby fears that she will always judge him for the class he is a part of in society. Hamlet and Gatsby are both similar in the sense that they are both tragic heroes, however their tragic flaws greatly differ. Gatsby’s flaw is that he is a dreamer and lives in a world where he is not able to face reality, while Hamlet’s issue is that he is a procrastinator and is unable to make decisions at the right time. Additionally, Gatsby and Amir are both forced to face the problems of class distinction in order to conquer their ultimate goals.
He uses many examples from Shakespeare regarding how multiple relationships failed due to faults and errors on of the lovers, stating their doom from the beginning, as they were more just lust than pure love. Another feature of a loving relationship that the writer subtly alluded to in his discussion is the necessity of good communication. Good communication, he attests, keeps a couple attentive to one another, and thus more relevantly in love. Honesty and communication is key to a successful marriage. Davies concludes with what he believes is the most critical element in a loving relationship, openness.
Harmonium and Nettles Harmonium and Nettles both highlight the theme of memory. As they both are looking back over past memories that are painful, the poems feature the feelings of being helpless in stopping the hurt that was caused. The writer in Harmonium feels remorse for the things he hadn’t said to his father as Armitage states “then mouth in reply some shallow sorry phrase or word too starved of breath to make itself heard”. The writer in Nettles is protective of the recurring threat to his child that he can’t destroy. “rain had called up tall recruits behind the shed,” this quote shows the father cannot destroy them .They differ in the way they felt powerless however as in Nettles the father is feeling powerless because of a physical threat whereas in Harmonium it is an emotional threat of the inevibility of death and unspoken feelings that makes the writer feel powerless.
“Father Barry and Edie Doyle are crucial in the redemption of terry Malloy” ''On the Waterfront' is the story of Terry Malloy's journey to self respect. Do you agree?' Elia Kazan's film, 'On the Waterfront', is a story about the emotional and moral development of a man challenging his own circumstances to seek self respect. Terry Malloy's journey to obtain redemption from his past is driven by various self-morals and people around him, inspiring Terry to overcome the thought of being "deaf and dumb - don't rat", which is ever-present throughout the film. Through Terry's motivation of ridding his label of being a "bum", to Father Barry's search and fight for the truth at the docks, to Edie Doyle's love for Terry and his love for her, Terry gains a self-respect and a sense of freedom he has never know before.
The extent to which relationships equate to fulfillment is demonstrated within Romulus my father through retrospective analysis of Gaita and Romulus’ early relationship where Gaita alludes to his positive father son relationship as a primary factory for his present day fulfillment. The text emphasizes the composer’s positive moral values being inherited from his fathers consistent loving, harsh and instructing nature. Demonstrated through Gaitas recollection that ”three things fed my fathers anger: his knowledge that I was lying, his fear for my character and his dismay that he had lost something precious”. Gaita recognizes that the strength of their relationship was due to his father’s persistence. The fear of loosing his son led Romulus to attempt to better himself, seen through the statement “My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.” Although this method of parenting gave short-term dismay demonstrated through Raimond’s childhood outburst “you don’t love me”.
Also, he is considered idealistic as he is always thinking about the aftereffects of disclosing the information of the baths to the public; in his case he believes he would get popular but it turns out the reality of situations hits him hard. The third characteristic is honesty, believing that if he tells the truth to the public then he might get the support of the community. The first main significant theme that Ibsen uses to explore Dr. Stockmann’s character is Principles. Dr. Thomas Stockmann is a man of principles and is willing to fight for what he believes in. His dedication is on display throughout the play, as he is steadily stripped of position in society, his home, and his job for refusing to be silent about the town's unhealthy, contaminated Baths which is considered to be his central motivation.
Christopher Mcandless, although driven to find true isolation, came to the self-realization at the end of his journey that loneliness was not the true solution to his problems, but that true happiness comes from the love of others. Before he came to this realization, Christopher’s motivations for happiness and isolation derived from his disconnection to his family, his hatred for society and the structure that forms it, and finally Christopher’s desire for a natural life. Christopher’s disconnection to his family was one of his motivations to search for total isolation. Chris had next to no relationship with any of his family members besides his sister, which evidently was not enough to keep him from leaving. He had no similar interests with them and their lifestyle was one that he didn’t like or want to be a part of.
This was a time when marriage was criticised due to the lack of emotional involvement and loyalty was also questioned in committed relationships. In the beginning, Lewis agrees with Nick and Lucy claiming that “love is not so important nowadays”. His statements surprised some of the patients and they were “looking at Lewis as if he was mad”. To characters like Henry, Roy and Ruth, love and fidelity are very significant in a relationship. Nowra however shows that through Lewis’ discussions with the patients and the ironies found in Cosi Fan Tutte helps Lewis to change his view on love and relationships.
Women therefore are seen as depending on men and must gain power, independence, transcending with the aid of man (2010). From this observation, De Beauvoir continues to express that a woman’s love is only in reference to the experience of a man. Through this observation De Beauvoir makes it aware that women love men as their entire existence, while for a man, love plays a minor role. Beauvoir suggests the path to “transcendence” in a relationship, is where love becomes inauthentic, rather love needs to be authentic in other ways (2010). Beauvoir’s analysis of love is ultimately the comparison of the two genders.
