Introduction

This essay focuses on the archetype of a character in the novel ‘white teeth’ by Zadie Smith. Archetype is a certain example of anything in a book. For example the archetype of faith is Abraham (Lane 94). In the novel ‘white teeth’ I find Alfred Archibald Jones to be boredom itself. The character forms the major part of the novel. He appears in the very first part of the novel and the last part not to mention his constant appearance in between the novel. For a character that forms that major part of the novel, he should be more ...

Many of the stories in Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales are bawdy or tragic tales of love in some form; characters are always falling in love, getting married, being tricked into getting married, sleeping with married people, and many other permutations of that central theme. In The Canterbury Tales the storytellers seem to focus on love and marriage but their perception of love and marriage seems to be different. For the most part, while love is the domain of men (n terms of the pursuit of amorous or courtly love), marriage is the domain of women (as they use ...

A marriage is a life time commitment between two people to share their lives and experiences as companions. In the least sense, this is what most people hope would happen when they commit to spent the rest of their lives together. It is a commitment and efforts between two people to be true to each other and support and love each other without any conditions whether in good times or bad times. Though, there are many characteristics associated to marriage, I feel, three are most important and define what a good marriage is, and are, trust, respect, and communication. These characteristics lay ...

Without being graphic, Kate Chopin can still titillate today’s readers in her short story, The Storm. Sex is a need that needs to be gratified. Even illicit sex can bring about happiness.

Not only is she endorsing it, she is suggesting that it can be a source of fulfillment in marital life for the legal spouses.

The Canterbury Tales is one of the greatest pieces of literature because of Chaucer’s story-telling techniques.

The majority of the narrator’s in Edgar Allan Poe’s stories have at least a little bit wrong with them. Even in “Pit and the Pendulum,” while the narrator appears to be an innocent victim of the Spanish Inquisition, his time below ground has certainly pushed his perspective toward the breaking point. In “The Tell-Tale Heart,” the narrator is convinced that he is not insane, and he is bent on convincing the reader that he is not insane. However, the fact that he waits until his murder victim’s eyes are open at night (and that the correct eye ...

Women are objectified in patriarchy. They have to use their sexuality in order to live a decent life and get what they want, because their position in the world doesn't allow them to achieve that kind of success alone. At least that was the case in 1953 when "Niagara" and "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" were filmed. In the fifties, emancipation of women was not at its peak. Women are victims in a male dominated world and their only chance is to marry preferably a rich man, who will support them. Lorelei and Dorothy sing: "Find a gentleman who is shy or bold; Or short ...

Even thought the phrases ‘victim of ambition’ and victim of fate’ appear inconsistent with the character of Macbeth, elements of both ambition and fate surface in his life. Although it appears that Macbeth might have always preconceived the desires to be king, this is not revealed until he meets the three witches, who prophesize that the ball is set in motion thereby bringing his ambitions to light.

In Samuel Beckett’s play Happy Days, he presents two characters who are married to each other. The wife, Winnie, chatters throughout the play, but the husband, Willie, generally speaks only in one-word answers. Their relationship seems to reflect a worn out marriage, in that neither of them seems to feel any passion for the other one. Their patterns of speech mirror their roles in the relationship. Winnie focuses on small, trivial things but unconvincingly claims that they are having happy times. Willie barely responds, and seems more of an object of Winnie’s attention than a real person.

Was Nora right to leave at the end of the play?

Firstly, she was right to leave because Torvald treats her in a completely stereotypical way – like a doll, as the title of the page suggests. All the names he calls her as endearments have the effect of stressing her weakness and dependence on him. They make her sound like a child, a doll, Torvald’s personal plaything: “little songbird”, “squirrel”, “lark”, “little featherhead”, “little skylark”, “little person”, little woman.” It could be argued that these are harmless and loving endearments, but they clearly show the balance of power in the Helmers’ marriage. If Nora acts at times in a flirtatious and childish way, it ...

In all quintessential love songs, three tenets (common qualities) have stood out; simple lyrics delivered with sincerity, use of a saxophone and they are sung in moderately slow tempos.

Wong Kar-Wai’s epic martial arts biopic The Grandmaster is an ambitious film that traces the history of Ip Man, a famous Chinese grandmaster who trained Bruce Lee and helped popularize jung fu around the world.
