Damon Salvatore Research Paper

Decent Essays
I will be defending Damon Salvatore from the television show “The Vampire Diaries”. Damon is a vampire and the eldest brother of the Salvatore Family. He and his brother Stefan grew up in Mystic Falls and have returned after several years to build a new life. He is known to be the evil and vindictive brother of the two. He acts selfishly and inhumane to get what he wants. Damon always gets the bad rap for acting on his instincts before thinking.
In my opinion, Damon is misunderstood and underappreciated. Everyone always sees the cruel act, but never the reasoning behind it. For instance, everyone would blame Damon for making Stefan’s life miserable. They would imply that Damon is the reason why Stefan could not live a normal life in peace.

    Did you know that Mary Shelley, the author of one the most studied books in our recent history, was less than twenty years old when she started writing the novel Frankenstein? Pretty impressive considering how complex the book is, plot, characters and all. One of the things we all know about this book is how a doctor created a creature and this creature went on a rampage and killed people and we all think we know how monstrous he is. But that’s not the full story, some could argue that Victor Frankenstein, the doctor who created this monster, is actually more of a monstrous character than the creature that we all have come to know as the “monster”. Victor is cruel to his creation, he is neglectful, so much so that he gets his own creation to…

    An Eye for an Eye Although justice and fairness are nearly synonymous, not everyone in this harsh world receives a fair judgement. More often than not, justice is served to the wrong people, or the people who receive a fair trial sit silently while others receive injustice after injustice. In Mary Shelley’s, Frankenstein, justice is a key theme that is developed through the characters of the Monster, Victor, and Justine. While Victor receives justice and an almost-too-fair trial, the Monster and Justine, along with other characters receive an injustice at least once. In the novel, Victor creates the monster, breaks promises, and sits silently, only to lead to injustice for other characters and justice for himself.…
