In The Good Earth, there are many settings that hold significance, and one is Wang Lung's fields, where his connections to the Earth are strongest. As long as he remembers all it has done for him, he lives a peaceful life. "But still one thing remained to him and it was his love for his land. He had gone away from it and he had set up his house in a town and he was rich. But his roots were in his land and although he forgot it for many months together, when spring came each year he must go out…

Beowulf prevails as one of the most significant pieces of English literature despite being written centuries ago. One justification for this is that countless motifs that it elaborates on are still applicable in the modern world. One of the widespread matters developed in Beowulf is the prestige of the heroic code. Most of Beowulf is committed to interpreting and epitomizing the heroic law which appreciates characteristics like power, perseverance, and glory. Contrasting with this teaching are…

of artificiality and coldness, state-sanctioned and reminiscent of the faceless anonymity of communist regimes of the time and hardly the kind of supportive counsel a disturbed teenager might need. When Deltoid asks of Alex: ‘You’ve got a good home here, good loving parents, you’ve got not too bad of a brain. Is it some devil that crawls inside you?’, there is no clear answer offered. This may be the question the reader wants answered too, but Burgess refuses to openly judge Alex. He is by…

to grips with the nature of his God who, in Job’s experience, attacked him without cause and then maintained a stony silence. We also encounter him in the unenviable position of rejecting the well-meaning advice of three notable men who had come a good distance to comfort him through his ordeal and…

monster in Mary Shelley’s book, Frankenstein, is a complex character. From murdering a total of six people, three directly and three indirectly, to having hopes to be accepted by society makes the monster a two-sided character. The monster shows his good side several times in the book and then taints his image by killing an innocent person. Despite the crimes he commits, the monster connects with the readers on an emotional level. Readers are instantly attached to the monster as they pity him…

In the final chapter, Yancey summarizes pain’s place in our world: “…a pain system that, even in the midst of a fallen world, still bears the stamp of his genius and equips us for life on this planet” (278). God designed pain, despite its tendency to produce suffering…

example, a religion that is dualistic admits not only that the universe contains good and evil or light and darkness, but that these forces are at constant war and only at the end will good finally conquer evil. Christianity,…

The Human Condition The biblical phrase “thou mayest” expresses how there is a choice and is different than “thou shalt” a King James translation which depicts how men will surely triumph over their sin. As opposed to Timshel (“thou mayest”) which signifies how you — you have a choice upon your individual fate. As described within the Bible when God expresses to Cain whilst exiling him to the land of East of Eden. He then instructs Cain to triumph over sin; in Lee’s discovery, he encounters…

Final Paper Many people would agree that there appears to be a contradiction between a loving God and the reality of evil. The attempt to answer these difficult contradictions is referred to as a theodicy. The great Christian thinker of our time, C. S. Lewis, wrote as an atheist after his beloved wife died, “meanwhile where is God? This is one of the most disquieting symptoms… But to go to Him when your need is desperate, when all other help is in vain, and what do you find? A door slammed…

genuine about what I was saying. The problem with teaching, and this happens in my field of law enforcement too, is the good employees don't get thanked. Just as good cops rarely receive a thank you I never see good teachers getting a thank you and when it comes to social justice, I think you need a thank you.
