“But she couldn’t avoid a wave of fright as she remembered Santiago Nasar’s horror when she pulled out the insides of a rabbit by the roots and threw the steaming guts to the dogs.” (p.8) The author in this line expressed Victoria’s bitterness towards Santiago Nasar. The way he described the guts of the rabbit was very raw and cold and using the phrase “steaming guts” makes the reader embody in the situation. The description of Victoria Guzmán’s action is rather emotionless. The verb “throws” indicates that she acts in anger and has no sympathy for the rabbit. To this scene is very closely connected the main scene of this novel.
The significance of the restaurant being called “Frank’s Chophouse” could be to show the aggression and the violence that is harboured in Willy’s life. Another interpretation of this important location could be to show how unimportant Willy is, almost as if he is “chopped liver”, as his sons leave him, for two girls, on the off chance that they will “have some fun”. In terms of “Frank’s Chophouse”, this scene is significant to the play as a whole; as it shows the audience a more broadened opinion of women and what Happy and Biff think of them. An example of this is at the beginning when Happy is talking to Stanley. Happy says – “Strudel’s comin’” – which suggests that Happy’s view of women is derogatory, almost as if they are a piece of sweet apple that can be eaten and enjoyed, and then spat out when that goodness has gone.
These poems were written as dramatic monologues. This literary form is meant to show the reader the narrator’s most inner thoughts during a dramatic situation, therefore the reader can explore the abnormal psychology involved in the two acts of murder. Before the murders, both men are shown to be dangerously possessive of their women. In “Porphyria’s Lover” and “My Last Duchess there is only one point of view. This view is expressed throughout the poems and the reoccurring theme is murder as they both show the idea of men killing a lover.
Robert and Roger talk about Jack going to beat up one of their tribe members, “‘He got angry and made us tie Wilfred up.’”(159). They find this cruel act funny and exciting. Their humaneness is disappearing and they are taking pleasures in the most twisted things. Moreover, the disappearance of their humaneness leads them to killing people. Piggy went to talk to them in a civilized manner but they ended up killing him.
And demandin’ of her how she come to be so stabbed, she testify it were your wife’s familiar spirit pushed it in’” (Miller 71). Spoken by Ezekiel Cheever, a clerk of the court, this dialogue shows that Abigail purposely stabs herself to make it seem as if it were the evil act of Elizabeth’s spirit. When the townsmen search the Proctors’ home, they discover the poppet with a needle poked in it (Abigail’s doing). Elizabeth is arrested, and Abigail is satisfied – for the time being. John Proctor, on the other hand, is outraged because he clearly knows the real motive behind Abigail’s deceitful
(And if my wife weren’t so deadly, I’d tell her to get in the kitchen and make me a sandwich.) It appears that her words do indeed spark some feral instinct in Macbeth; for, in no time, he is off to do the deed: I go, and it is done. The bell invites me. Hear it not, Duncan, for it is a knell That summons thee to heaven or to hell. (II, i, 75-77) This last part of Macbeth’s soliloquy is chilling.
The next infraction is what some would consider worse than murder itself – framing another person for a murder they did not commit. “Thanks to the lessons of Felix and the sanguinity laws of man, I knew how to work mischief. I bent over her and placed the portrait securely in one of the fold of her dress. She moved again and I fled”. What he did here was put a picture of a woman from a man’s pocket who he had killed, into a sleeping woman’s pocket in hope of making people believe that she committed the
In this case , the concept of religion brings about a form of foreshadowing. There was also a bit of irony as the knives that were used to kill Santiago were pig knives and you would think that its quite ironic how it was the murder weapon but, in my opinion , it symbolises the vicario brothers intent. “But she noticed that the twins were carrying two butcher knives wrapped in kitchen rags.” The vicario brother’s sister was defiled meaning that she has
(Mac 5.1. 38) The imaginary blood spots that behold Lady Macbeth's hands emphasize her intense feelings of remorse for the murder of Duncan. In the inception of the story, Lady Macbeth was dauntless and tranquil about the murder of Duncan. Lady Macbeth tells Macbeth, " tis safer to be that which we destroy than by destruction dwell in doubtful joy." (Mac 3.2.
The slaughter house stated in the poem gave an image of death but also work and prosperity. “painted women under the gas lamps luring the farm boy” is a part from the poem describing women of the city luring the hard working, innocent men with sexual seductions, which in all means the city is seductive to the pure. Ms. Linder agrees with this and also states in the poem the author talks about seeing people get away with murder, and seeing women and children hungry faces. The poem give an image of you seeing people looking down at the city laughing at how poorly it is but the
