If the story had been written in first or third person point of view, I think we would understand a lot of the protagonist’s motivation. The questions I have all along the way would have had to be answered for the story to make sense in a different point of view. Because we are only hearing his thoughts, we don’t know why a girl is coming over. We sort of know it’s a date when he says, “Sometimes the girl won’t flow over at all and the next day in school she’ll say sorry, smile and you’ll be stupid enough to believe her and ask her out again.” (Meyers 179) In another point of view, the story would take on a more conventional tone and maybe not be a
The reason the scene was cut from the play lies in both the significance of the conversation and what it revealed about the John Proctor in terms of his affair and his character. The conversation between John Proctor and Abigail Williams had great significance to both the play itself and the setting in which it was placed. It blatantly called out the irony of the Puritan way of life and the hypocrisy going on in Salem at the time. When Abigail addresses John and says, “Oh Hypocrites! Have you won him too?” [p. 151], she is referring to the townspeople of Salem as the hypocrites and questioning John’s integrity and strength.
It’s just that her constant questioning ends up pushing the already-doubt-ridden fireman over the edge. Clarisse never tells Montag what to think; she just shows him that thinking is an option. She invites him to do it for himself, and he walks through the door she opens. Then Clarisse dies (we think). What’s up with that?
Theater Response Paper: Actors The play that I went to see at 59E59 Theaters was called Gidion’s Knot by Johnna Adams. The play depicted a parent/teacher conference between a mother and her son’s teacher. The mother, Corryn, still wanted an explanation as to why her son, Gidion, was suspended from his fifth grade class even though he committed suicide a few days prior to the conference. Gidion’s teacher, Heather, is apprehensive about telling Corryn why Gidion was suspended without the principal and the school board attorney being present. The play was heart-wrenching yet enjoyable because of the hard work done by the actors and detailed technical aspects.
I felt like giving somebody a buzz. I left my bags right outside the booth so that I could watch them, but as soon as I was inside, I couldn’t think of anybody to call up... Then I thought of giving Jane Gallagher’s mother a buzz and find out when Jane’s vacation started, but I didn’t feel like it. Besides, it was pretty late to call up. Then I thought of calling this girl I used to go around with quite frequently, Sally Hayes... but I was afraid her mother’d answer the phone” (59) Holden knows he wants to call someone, but ends up interdicting all his options. The proof is evident as with every name Holden thinks of, he can find a good reason in his opinion not to call them.
An Assisted Suicide Issue Name PHI 200: Mind and Machine Professor Date An Assisted Suicide Issue I can understand how Susan Wolf felt about physician-assisted suicide. When she started writing about the physician-assisted suicide, she was not faced with it affecting her family. When she talked to her dad about this issue, he was so adamant about wanting to live no matter what state his body was in. Her father stated that there was no afterlife, so he wanted every last bit of “it” on any terms (Wolf, 2008). Should Susan still believe what her father was saying how he wanted to live no matter what state his body was in or should she consider what he wants now that he is experiencing everything that his body is going through?
In the case of emergency or serious situations, official documents (such as doctor notes and a letter from your boss or parents) are required. If you anticipate that you won’t be able to make class on a test day or due date, you are responsible to communicate with the instructor beforehand and make sure to follow-up by email. In ambiguous situations a 20% late deduction may be applied if the student makes an effort to promptly carry out the required work. Class assignments and assessments completed in class cannot be made up if you miss the class. D2L use and email: eLearning (Desire to Learn; D2L) will be the main communication platform for this class.
After Lucy was attacked and raped, Lurie was so passionate about getting justice. However, earlier in the novel when Melanie Isaac’s father had come to want justice for his own daughter, Lurie just walked away like it was nothing, like the father didn’t deserve his time. David wants so badly for Lucy to go to the police with what has happened to her. “Do you think what happened here was an exam: if you come through, you get a diploma and safe conduct onto the future, or a sign to paint on the door-lintel that will make the little plague pass you by? That is not how vengeance works, Lucy.
It not only changes our view on Addie, but our view on the novel as a whole. Addie's voice is imparative to the reader's outlook and while we can sense it through the voices of others, her chapter best sums up her mind. So, what if Addie's chapter did not exsist? For one, we would never have comprehended her mind and the way it twists around things like how she feels about her children and husband. We would have all thought of her as still the same loving mother who watches her son, Cash, methodically build her coffin not because she is ready and wanting soon to be in it, but because he is her son and she loves to see him work.
I promised myself I was not going back to school and I told my mother but she insisted I’d go and I had no choice. So instead I would act out and not go to class and stay in the bathroom. I stopped completing my work and began to make myself sick just so I could go home early every day. Ms. Cameel told my mother if I did not start completing my work I would not be promoted to the third grade. I was upset but I had to get away from Ranasha amd the rest of my classmates.
