Thematic Interpretation: A central theme of The Field (1990) is tradition. Bull is set on his ways of working his small patch of field. It does not matter to him, rain or shine he will be out working the field. Bull is also intent on making sure that Tadgh wants to work this land just as much as he does. We learn that Tadgh’s older brother Shamie took his own life, because the pressure working the field for the rest of his life was too much for him.
Sickened by the conservatism, materialistic context, and hypocrisy of humanity, he embarks on a nomadic journey across the country to acquire an honest home, a new identity, and happiness. However, because he believes the essentials required to live a satisfactory life depend on solitude and the earth’s wilderness, both his ignorance and nature’s unkindness lead to his death. Chris’s naïveté and ignorance create a sense of fortitude that ironically propels him to his death. As an exceptional graduate from Emory University and a child from an affluent family, his point of view of life substantially contends with utter dissatisfaction, contrary to his parents’ sentiment; the eagerness to escape society and abandon possessions in the interest of living off the land comprehensively consumes Chris. Although considerable accommodation proves his unfamiliarity of living in harmony with nature, Chris claims, “The core of man’s spirit comes from new experiences.” (Into the Wild, Penn).
Ethical Considerations for the Investigator and Prosecutor in Homicide and Rape The investigator and prosecutor play very critical roles, roles that are only fairly fulfilled if all parties are as ethical as possible. Failing to act ethically can lose a case, set a criminal free or could even mean someone innocent going to prison.

Lazarillo soon learns to be tricky and sneaky in order to survive and get food since his masters would not feed him well. By the end of the novel, although his hard-gained survival and finally reaching the social level he always hoped to attain in his life, Lazaro, does not seem to be a man of honor; which is one of the most important values a person had to have to be socially accepted. After all the years of observing his masters’ hypocrisy, materialism and greed, he marries the archpriest’s mistress for what he can gain. He did not want anyone’s interference or opinion in his decision and just wanted to be happy and know he did the right things after all the hardship he went through in life.
