In the novel Of Mice and Men, John Steinbeck writes the story of two American men struggling during the 1930s Great Depression.

In order to support themselves, migrants mainly traveled alone and only focused on surviving and finding money.…

accused of being a witch. John forced her to testify and told her to face her fears. This is ironic because at first, John did not want to testify in Salem either (53). Since both John and Mary were afraid to go to Salem, Miller painted an image of Salem as being a place of fear. It should be noted however that, John was afraid to go to Salem for a different reason. John was afraid of what his wife, Elizabeth would think of him after his affair with Abigail. Abigail, unlike John and Mary, used…

These range from small spaces with conifer frames to city parks with concrete frames. Firstly, he wants us as designers to understand the importance of foundation, frame, base and theme. This begins with a “genius loci” he states, a focal point to start with (Page 147). Here we extract elements and patterns from the locus, and then the entire rest of the…

The book, Can We Trust the Gospels, attempts to answer two basic questions that are posed to many Christians at least once in their lifetime: Do the Gospels provide reliable, historical information about Jesus of Nazareth? And do they offer a trustworthy basis for having faith in Jesus Christ? The author, Mark Roberts, is referring to the first four books found in today’s New Testament Bible, not other texts or “gnostic gospels” that are found elsewhere in literature. The author claims that…

In Rawls’ Theory of Justice, he thinks of Justice as Fairness. Rawls’ thinks the distribution or redistribution of goods is fair, in my opinion, this would depend upon the situation. It’s also stated in Justice as Fairness that “Justice should not be based on Luck of Birth”. Another exert in his text states that the “Veil of Ignorance guarantees that justice will be achieved by the least well-off”. Although some of the things Rawl’s speaks of in his Theory of Justice could possibly be…

Loneliness is defined by Merriam-Webster as “being without company”.

They find jobs in Soledad, California after Lennie finds trouble with the law at their previous job.

At the beginning of the novella “Of Mice and Men”, Steinbeck describes the two main characters, Lennie Small, a large man who is mentally challenged and George Milton, a small and intelligent man. We already see a literary element, verbal irony with Lennie’s last name, Small. This exemplifies irony because Lennie is, in reality a large man, making his last name ironic. Lennie and George exhibit an interesting relationship, that is said to be similar to that of a dog and his master in the novel.…

Thomas Jefferson believed in the equality of all people, and that “they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, among these is the pursuit of Happiness.” (DI) Jefferson used “Happiness” because America is supposed to be a place where individuals come and live the life they want to abundantly. Happiness can be perceived differently; such as, some individuals just want to love one another in peace, others want to raise their children in a Democracy, and a few people move…
