... hang TJ because RW and Melvin framed him for robbing a store. Out of love for TJ Papa set the cotton field on fire to set up a distraction. The distraction worked but the novel isn’t clear on saying exactly if he lives or dies, but I think it leads more towards to TJ dying. Many risks were taken in this novel. Almost every character took a risk some of the risks came out positive and some came out negatively. I think papa and TJ’s risks were the biggest in the novel. The scary thing about this book was that America really used to be like this, you rarely hear about it today but still happens. ...

... the river. The support they have for each other sprouts friendship. The events that Huck comes in contact with carry a certain sequential order. Huck started off despising the Widow’s rules, and when his Pap kidnaps him, he has no interest in returning.

His father’s frantic activities show him as a person to always avoid and Huck now intentionally goes to school “to spite Pap”(Pg.27). “School is everything Pap is not, and everything he will never be.”(Mrs. Hunsaker) Huck had reached a p ...

... While Charlotte is speaking to Elizabeth about her sister, she expressed her opinion as to Jane Bennet's relationship towards a gentleman. She says it is probably better not to study a person because you would probably know as much after twelve months as if she married him the next day. Charlotte even goes as far as to say that "it is better to know as little as possible of the defects of the person with whom you are to pass your life" (p.21). Charlotte considered Mr. Collins "neither sensible nor agreeable" but since marriage had always been her goal in life, "at the age of twenty-seven, with having never been handsome, she felt all the good luck of it" (p.107). ...

(p. 5) Luther delineates a series of dichotomies: morality/faith, works/grace, secular society/religion (p. 7), conscience/joy, works/faith, earthly/heavenly, Adam/Jesus, sin/righteousness, death/eternal life, flesh/spirit, Law/Christ (p. 9), Law/grace, Moses the lawgiver/Christ the savior (p. 10). These follow the dualism which Paul describes: "What the flesh desires is opposed to the Spirit, and what the Spirit desires is opposed to the flesh; for these are opposed to each other."

... heavily to make up for these portions of food and water. As Paul states, “I gather them up and want to put them back again, but the strain I am under, the uncertainty, the hunger, the danger, these hours with the dead man have made me desperate...” (p. 224) he describes the importance of good food in the war and depicts that decent food is quite rare. Since the soldiers are not given enough food, the army life proves to be extremely dangerous. Second, the shelter provided by the army does not appeal to the soldiers since it does not fit the soldiers’ needs. These shelters are often infested with lice, rodents, and other insects.

... doctor/husband to stay in a colonial mansion for the summer. The house is supposed to be a place where she can recover from severe postpartum depression. She loves her baby, but knows she is not able to take care of him. “It is fortunate Mary is so good with the baby. Such a dear baby! And yet I cannot be with him, it makes me so nervous”(Gilman 293). The symbolism utilized by Gilman is somewhat askew from the conventional. A house usually symbolizes security but in this story the opposite is true. The protagonist, whose name we never learn, feels trapped by the walls of the house, just as she is trapped by her mental illness. The windows of her room, which ...
