In “The Scarlet Letter” by Nathaniel Hawthorne, the difficult time many people went through is seen. It is mostly seen how women did not have as many choices as men did, it shows how women were judged and watched for every little thing that they did. Their actions spoke louder than their words, because no one was willing to hear what they had to say, they were just willing to see the outcome. The beliefs that society had, compared to the ones that society has today were very different yet in a…

long been a focal point in the story of the American Revolution. Over the years it has become common place for historians to argue on the impact that the event had on the colonials and their seemingly inevitable movement toward war. The HBO series John Adams is by no means a historical documentary, taking liberty with the accuracy of some of its material in the name of dramatic gravitas. Director Tom Hooper sets out to show the Boston Massacre with a sense of realism even when falsifying…

the wife of John Adams, was responsible for writing this document. As shown in this letter to her husband, Abigail Adams was an advocate for the political equality of women and was not afraid to demonstrate her belief to her husband. Based on the sophisticated style of writing found in this letter is it fair to assume she was born into a wealthy family that could afford to educate her (at least in the field of literature). This is evident when she finishes her paper by telling John Adams that…

Most people will say that lying is never the answer, but they don’t always tell why. Lying often ends unethically, not only the can the lier be punished or feel guilty in the process, but it often goes further than anticipated. When looking back there seems to be more consequences on the result of the pretense than what the reward would have been if everything worked out and there was no lying. The Salem Witch Trials, the McCarthy Trials, and the McMartin Trials all proved that it is important…

guided. In a Prayer for Owen Meany, John Irving uses themes to combine the complexity of his work. Without the theme of religion/doubt tying in with fate versus free will, the novel would lose substance and value. Faith and religion, without a doubt, is the underlying main source of the novel’s overtone. The struggle to find faith and keep it throughout all circumstances is one of the novel 's goal. In the first paragraph of the book, readers find out that John has taken in Christianity from…
