... doctrine, which came to be known as Imagism is guided by three simple tenets, set forth by Pound, “H.D.” (Hilda Doolittle), and Richard Aldington in 1912. The first states that the “thing” dealt with will be done so directly, whether subjectively or objectively (Spirit of Romance p.219). Pound insisted that the poem must present to the reader an active image, not a mere description of events or setting. Pound’s model for his directness was the prose of nineteenth century French authors such as Flaubert and DeMaupassant (Hakatuni p.48-49). The second tenet of Imagism is to “use absolutely no word that does not contribute to the presentation” of the image in ...

... skin color was pale, and the speaker says that his mistress' breasts were a brownish-gray. "If hairs be wires, black wires grown on her head" (4). The speaker is saying that her hair is not soft, silky and smooth. The speaker goes to the extreme of saying her breath "reeks." When you hear the word "reeks" you imagine an awful smell and using this to describe her breath creates an image of not wanting to come face to face with her. But as you continue to read, the speaker says that she is a real person and is obtainable, unlike a mystical form such as an angel or goddess. "I grant I never saw a goddess go, / My mistress when she walks treads on the ground" ...

... any indirection: I did send to you for gold to pay my legions, which you denied me: was that done like Cassius?" This is an honesty that gained him the respect of the people. Brutus was a naive man as well. Sincerity is often misconstrued as being naive; however, I will treat each as a separate characteristic. Brutus's naive spirit is mostly shown not in one single action, but in the overall willingness he has to believe that those around him are essentially good. "Only be patient till we have appeased the multitude, beside themselves with fear, and then we will deliver you the cause why I, that did love Caesar when I struck him, have thus proc ...

... is, what he believes in, what he represents and what he would do for his profession. The wheels of Jurisprudence are always turning, and I came to realise how Greenspan worked and bargained for his status in the country to be solidified. This book also flourished with innovative situations pertaining to the most diversified of criminal charges, to the most uncanny regions of law ever dealt. It was this thorough look at Greenspan's life which impressed this reviewer the most. It was quite clear that after the fourth page, I came upon the conclusion that this casebook would create a most influential reaction to anyone who had displayed any interest towards our Law sys ...

... trouble began. Zena found out about it and tried to push Mattie out of the house. Another flaw that Ethan shows in immaturity. This is demonstrated when he is trying to convince Mattie to run away with him to Florida. He tries to run away from his problems instead of facing them. A fourth flaw is reveled when Ethan and Mattie are sledding down the hill. Mattie says that she never wanted to leave the hiss, so together they slid down the hill and into a tree, trying to commit suicide. In my opinion, this was rather stupid when they had a bottle full of poison in the barn. In this paper I have demonstrated four character flaws of Ethan Frome. There in include ...
