Jacob thinks that Bella is actually a vampire now and attempts to lead an assault on the Cullens for breaking the treaty. Sam, the alpha of the pack, forbids an assault on the Cullens without seeing Bella's immortality for himself. Jacob heads off on his own to avenge Bella. When he arrives, he discovers that Bella was sick, but it was from her pregnancy, not a disease. Jacob begs Bella to abort the fetus and save her life, but Bella is determined that she will live long enough to have the baby and be transformed into a vampire. Jacob runs off, and phases due to his anger. This accidentally reveals Bella's condition to the pack, and due to the lack of knowledge on human-vampire babies, the pack decides to kill the baby and Bella immediately. Jacob objects, and when Sam uses an alpha command to force Jacob into submission, Jacob accepts his bloodline as the true heir of the pack and breaks free of Sam's control. He then runs off to warn the Cullens of the pack's planned assault. However, while en route, Seth, one of the younger pack members, joins Jacob and makes note of the fact that neither of them can hear the others; they have formed their own pack.

Love and hope, together are a timeless literary thematic duo, which continue to inspire countless variations and sub-genres of romance literature. For the last many centuries, romance as a genre, is arguably the most popular of all narratives. However, the theme of love often takes presentences and overarches other thematic interpretation of stories. So why then are people seeking romance in the literature they ready? Suzanne Collins wrote The Hunger Games with the intent to introduce her young adult readership to a number of politically charged themes. Although Collins's work is acknowledged for successfully presenting themes of sacrifice, versions of reality, and power, her audience conversely identifies with the debatable sub-them of love. Social forums, such as the Official Hunger Games Facebook Website exposes an insider's perspective of sort, which reveals public perceptions and interpretations of Collins's work. Even though the purpose for the fan-website built around The Hunger games is to provide a discussion space. Participant's discussions however, unintentionally reveal a...

Despite being one of the highest grossing film franchises of all time, The Twilight Saga movies were known more so for the quality of their soundtracks, rather than the actual quality of the films. Whilst I enjoyed the books (written by Stephanie Meyer), I felt that the films didn’t really live up to my expectations. In fact, they were terrible if I have to be honest. The soundtracks on the other hand, exceeded them. Here, I’ve put together my top ten favourite songs from the five movies that made up the series. Are there any (obvious) choices that I’ve missed out? If so, be sure to add your own top ten’s in the comments below!
The next scene, which outlines the sense of trust between the two, is the confrontation where Bella wanted to know why Edward had to stop the v...
The Twilight series is a bestselling series written by Stephanie Meyer that has captivated millions of teenage girls. Twilight diverges from the vampire lore quite a bit and contains very little information about any other supernatural beings. Most vampire stories stress that vampires are night dwellers; that they cannot remain “alive” when the sun rises. Nevertheless, Twilight ignores that known ...
The producer doesn't remake it exactly and simplifies it. As she gets over to her truck in the school parking lot she looks back and on the other side Edward is starring at her. She turns around then she hears tires screeching, the Blue mini van avoids a car loses control and is now sliding towards her. She has no time to turn away so she gets down and Edward jumps in and is kneeling over her. He stopped the van with one hand and left an indention in the passenger door. As he realizes that he's exposed himself they stare deeply at each other. Bella with a astonished look and Edward with a sort of worried and mistaken look. He then gets up slowly and walks away from the scene as the crowd of students approach the scene. Then it jumps to the hospital where she's with her dad and Dr. Cullen is her doctor. He makes sure she's okay and she tells him that if it wasn't for Edward she would be dead. He ignores the seriousness of the incident and says she was lucky. After she wants to talk to Edward, as she has flash backs she tells him that she doesn't get how he got their so fast and how he saved her. He pushes her suspicions aside and explains to her that she doesn't know what she's saying in result of the “shock” of it all. The movie explains the scene in a different way for one reason, visuals. Since its a movie they really had to focus on “looks” and certain things like that instead wording it all like a book needs to do. The

Defining the novel is a challenging prospect because the act of naming means to circumscribe a genre that defies rigid codes. The novel's elasticity and readiness to incorporate other genres makes it slippery and untidy; nevertheless, the novelness of a text allows us to recognize a novel and distinguish it from other genres. As readers, we approach the novel with the expectation that it will possess novelistic attributes and judge the novel on its ability to master these. With this focus in mind, this essay explores how the following features in Jane Austen's Persuasion contribute to (or persuade us as to) the novelness of the text: the extensive treatment of its characters, a sense of cohesion and continuity present in a work of long prose fiction, and a vivid portrayal of the social order on the micro-level of the domestic scenes of everyday.
Emma by Jane Austen Setting Emma took place in a small town called Highbury in 18th century England. During the time period set in the novel, there was a definite social rank, or hierarchy.
