Um...  not sure if this is helpful, but there are repeated references to God, however there are still references to fate and wyrd, remnants of the old anglo-saxon relgion.  This is important because it indicates that the culture is in a shift between the two religions and/or that the story dates from the pre-christian era, and has simply been retold for christian audiences.

It is a symbol of authority and power.  You have to trace it's evolution and destruction from the novel.  That entails... doing your own homework.\n\nGood Luck!\n\nSue

"Because life immitates art, we often find that our lives are reflected in literary works from historical points of view.  One can never mistakenly see himself in a character in a great novel such as King Lear or the Great Gatsby.  If you are the same as one of these characters, you will have no doubt as I had with the character ________________ in the novel ____________. "\n\nthen continue with your essay from there\n\nsusan

The point of the poem is not really what it means... because what it means is basically what you read. There is no underlying deep, philosophical meaning to it. It is a simply, living poem. When you read it, its supposed to "conjure" up the images, the sounds, the tastes, etc. It's the imagery thats strong and important. The meaning of the poem is really basic, so I won't tell you specifically tell you what it is. But my answer is a hint.

You could probably go down the path of writing, but the first piece that youve written needs work. It has some nice lines in it, but it doesn't flow perfectly, and there are some weaker lines that could be changed. Try not to use cliches such as "souls collide", and be careful not to jump back and forth between past and present tense. Aim to make everything you say relevant. It can be metaphorical or abstract of course, but some of your references seem a bit random, such as "so much wind" at the beginning. Also the repetition of the word "life" in the first 2 lines sounds a bit funny.\n\nDont take offense, just trying to help!

Sounds like a fun assignment. I may do this on my own time, but as this is your assignment, I cannot write this for you.\n\nTry to use your imagination.  Have you read these novels? Any one of them would be exciting to write a script for. Relax and try to have fun.

beautiful essay.  Nice analysis of the novel and good explanation of the latent antagonist, "fear."\n\nTo answer your question, I have a few  title suggestions for the essay. \n\nThe true "Beast" to be feared is radical imagination.\n\nA good imagination is healthy but Imagination plus fear kills.\n\nFear is a destructive Beast.\n\n\ngood luck

Probably ghosts, since the idea of ghosts is pretty much universal throughout all cultures. While there are some mythological creatures that have a lot in common with our idea of zombies and vampires, these ideas aren't quite as universal and offer differ between cultures too much to truly say that something is, say, a "Chinese vampire" or "Aztec zombie." But ghosts are pretty simple, since the main concept is simply that of a dead human spirit and the particulars may vary widely even within this culture. Like I said, you can find that pretty much anywhere.

The best examples are probably in the "too too solid flesh" soliloquy.  There the distinction between earthly things and heavenly things, and the distinction between King Hamlet and Claudius.  Also, when Prince Hamlet is addressing Yorick's skull, he draws comparisons between living and dying

1. How do you "write sketches"?? \n\nA sketch should be a short description of the character.  Who is he?  How old?  What's his relationship to the other characters?  What's his personality?\n\n2. What does "substantiated with excerpts" mean?\n\nIt means that you have to back up your point with short passages from the book that show why you're right.\n\n3. And, what does the last 3 words mean ("to prospective readers")?\n\nIt means to people who might be interested in reading the book but need your help deciding if they should read it or not.

if you have a word processor, it can do more help for you than any one of us can do on here. i will give my best shot:\nHumans search for their own unique identities. Some eventually settle into a niche while others never discover (try who they truly are)their true selves. The poems "I'm Nobody" by Emily Dickinson and "Dusting" by Julia Alvarez, the authors adopt the first person (what is this called...the point of view? i cant remember-either way, insert that here.) to convey characters' stories and its theme but differ of how they approach its imagery and tone. Throughout "American Gothic" and "Epitaph On A Tyrant" the theme of the poem and imagery are diverse whereas the tone and the identity of the characters are resembling.\ncommas are only used within or before quotes when speaking is done. good luck! i fixed what i found. :)
