Esperanza states that “Next week she comes back over black and blue and asks what can she do? Minerva. I don’t know which way she’ll go. There is nothing I can do” (85). Even when Esperanza was young she was viewed as a strong individual, ergo neighbors such as

While reading “ Into the Wild” by Jon Krakauer, many opinions can be formed of Chris McCandless. One, in particular, was the author's opinion which he blatantly stated on page 85. He didn't think that Chris was some reckless foolish insane idiot. He believed that competent otherwise he wouldn't have lasted so long. I agree with Krakauer, things Chris did on this journey did not show signs of some careless person. Chris was just an adventurer looking to get away from the expectations society had of
Frankenstein Mary Shelley places great emphasis on her character’s physical traits. She uses these descriptions to represent not just their personality but the way that Victor sees them. Their physical representations also play into the important subtext of how they make victor feel and the voids that he is trying to fill. Finally, those descriptions help tie into the important themes and motifs of the book that were staples of the romantic era. A prime example of this is when Victor describes professor

introduced Stanley and Blanche, they automatically became at odds with each other. They each represent opposing symbols and did not get along because of this. Tennessee Williams shows in A Streetcar Named Desire that opposites can still be similar in some ways by how Stanley and Blanche are both carnal, drink a lot, and have a temperamental personality. Both Stanley and Blanche have very carnal personalities, and they need love to satisfy their desires for not only physical sex, but also stability and security

In addition, Jonsen could have turned around and followed the Clorinda to return the children, but Jonsen says that it “…was out of the question” (85). Little did Jonsen know this decision would cost him his life. Furthermore

In Fight Club in particular the reader gains a sense of agreement between the characters, although it is developed through an unhealthy way of Fight Club.

The author uses contextual symbols to tie together the wishes of the narrator’s grandpa or the furthering of black society and the literal fight that the narrator encounters. The fight represents the constant fight that African Americans face in society. In the beginning of the story the narrator
of limitless music variety, Pop and Punk - through the eyes of many - seem to go hand-in-hand. Pop and punk, in reality, are two very different genres altogether. Though there are vast differences in these genres, very close similarities exist that tie the two together. Punk music is not generally for the softhearted.

Pictures were found to not be more important than words and ideas, and covering stories in a way that is interesting to the audience attracts and holds viewers better. “How a newsroom covers a story- the degree of thoroughness, the amount of enterprise and, ultimately, the investment of a newsroom’s time, resources, and energy – has a greater influence
