Goodness is the very heart of the whole reign of moral values. It is by no accident that the term "good" means moral value as such, and also the specific moral quality of goodness. Among the different moral values there is none which embodies more completely the entire reign of moral values, than goodness; in it we find the purest and most typical expression of the general character of moral goodness as such. It is the center of all morality, and at the same time, it’s most sublime fruit. Its…

The prevailing theme that can be interpreted in “Agamemnon” and “Choephoroe” is the idea that blood vengeance does not atone past offenses, but rather…

closest to you can hurt you the most and they can try to understand the hurt and pain, but it may truly never be known. Though the majority of the time we never even consider family turning their back on us, both books, “Let Me Go” and “Cry, the Beloved Country” show us that lack of confrontation and injustice among family can turn things for the worst. “Let Me Go” is a deeply compelling story about the attempt to reconcile a relationship between mother and daughter. Helga Schneider is a…

Reversals are also present in the text, such as when the wife suddenly changes her mind about her husband—telling…
