There is a lot that one can assume just by looking at the piece. At the time this picture was painted, Bosnian Serb guerrillas were carrying out campaigns of “ethnic cleansing” which explains the title of the painting. Soldiers were clearing out certain ethnic groups but either just killing them or by turning them out of their homes. It was the worst refugee crisis in Europe since World War II
T.J shows the qualities compassionate, gives a gift, sacrificing, empowering, and persistence. He shows compassion by believing in everyone, and making sure that everyone gets something out of it. He gives the gift of the idea and knowledge of making a garden on the roof of the factory. The quality sacrificing is demonstrated when he gives up all of his
Ponyboy just had to see Johnny kill Bob and that was enough to make him lose his innocence. People like Randy and Steve just resent and hate the world so much that that would cause them to lose their innocence as well. Someone could lose their innocence just by thinking bad thoughts. S.E. Hinton definitely does not agree with William Blake’s poem: The Lily because in The Lily, William Blake is saying that innocence cannot be abolished or destroyed.
While addressing the public about the new law, Creon says “Polyneices, I say, is to have no burial; no man is to touch him or say the least prayer for him; he shall lie in the plain, unburied; and the birds and scavenging dogs can do with him whatever they like” (Scene 1, lines 32-34). Creon’s opinion is obviously completely against anyone burying Polyneices in the beginning of the play, which is against the laws of the gods. This opinion and attitude are the reasons for the dreadful consequences in the end for Creon. Not only does Antigone kill herself, but also so does Haimon, his son, and Eurydice, his wife. After all of these tragic events, it becomes clear to Creon that what he did was wrong and that he needs to own up to his actions.
Humanity’s Separation from Nature The gray unhappy air surrounds civilization as the pollution of human creations and discoveries tears us further and further from our natural beginnings. Nature no longer encompasses us with sunshine and beauty, left alone we become monsters in our outlook and attempt to take control of power we were never meant to have. With the use of drugs and the constant striving for upmost power to create living from dead we have destroyed our natural roots. Natural processes slowly disappear from the world around us, in Brave New World the Director says; "Bokanovsky's Process is one of the major instruments of social stability!" (1) This is a process where people are artificially made and conditioned into certain parts of society.
In cantos III Dante asked Virgil why the people were there and Virgil’s response was, “These have no longer any hope of death; And this blind life of theirs is so debased, They envious are of every other fate. No fame of them the world permits to be; Misericord and Justice both disdain them. Let us not speak of them, but look, and pass.” Just as in life we don’t pay much attention to those who don’t warrant any real sin, in hell these same people are looked over. They chose to live in a state of limbo on earth, so they are now condemned to live out the rest of eternity like that. Some of them chose neither good nor evil and the others did not accept Christ and heaven or hell wants nothing to do with them.
While the drive for collectivized agriculture was a wide going trend, kulaks needed to be destroyed. Stalins way of doing this was complete taking away all food and grain that they grew. (Doc.6) However the Kulaks didn’t make it easy; they would kill and poison their animals, kill government officials, and collective farm activists. (Doc.5) They would burn their barns and destroyed machinery. By them doing this the Soviets now had a right to kill them, and that was done until there were no Kulaks left.
This writing was so detailed in the horrible mistreatments of the slaves that, he began to be accused of treason of his own country. His brutal descriptions of the slave’s treatment seem to prove his motives positive. It seems that he wants others to be disgusted by these wrong doings, just as he was. It is said in his writing, The Very Relation of the Devastation of the Indies, “And the Christians, with their horses and swords and pike began to carry out massacres and strange cruelties against them. They attacked the towns and spared neither the children nor the aged nor pregnant women nor women in childbed, not only stabbing them and dismembering them but cutting them into pieces as if dealing with sheep in the slaughter house”(37).
They have obviously lost all sense of reason and are only intent on doing one thing, to kill Ralph. They ruined the whole island which was similar to the Garden of Eden when they first landed, and turned it into the Flames of Hell. In conclusion, the events in this novel tell us that humans are savages by nature. We are all capable of becoming a beast and that the beast is within all of us. Golding shows that without rules, evil overpowers everything.
