A Short Story Of Julius Caesar

He appreciated everything Jack’s family had done for him, especially Jack himself. Despite struggles throughout his journey, for example, “That’s why it felt like a nightmare when Joseph, maybe three steps away from the bank, fell through the ice of the Alliance River.” (GS38) As Joseph did go through these problems every once in a while, Jack had some what changed Joseph. During a fight broke out in the gym locker room, Joseph was being ganged up on.

When Joseph was thirteen, he made a decision to fall in love in order to distract his mind from the abuse he was suffering at home. The text states “ “.(Shmidt). Everyday, Joseph would walk seven miles to see his loved one and when they eventually had a child, his dedication sky rocketed. This impacted his life greatly because when Madison died during labor, he became depressed, and he wasn't even able to see his daughter because he was underage. Joseph felt so low, that he even accepted drugs from another's student in his school, and this made him insane enough to strangle a teacher. He then was sent to prison, and eventually ended up in a foster home. This all wouldn’t have happened if Joseph was smart enough to stay out of a serious relationship at such a young age. This section of the book informs the reader that your decisions can greatly impact your life. Once again, Joseph’s decision to enter a serious relationship impacted his life, and in this case the impact was

On the other hand, at first Joseph, who was new to basement living often, spent his days quietly pacing. Anna noticed that at times he appeared to have silent remorseful secrets in his eyes and a tortured soul. But as time passed, he too accepted his fate and began amusing himself by talking. He would talk about anything and everything, including the occasional whiff of Miss Margot's perfume which Joseph said, "reminds me of a day when I had walked into my house and found that it was warm and cozy and smelt like sweet vanilla and pine

He couldn’t sleep much that night. John had been kept awake from the chirping of the crickets and the buzzing of the bees. Noises like that were unfamiliar to the him for he had usually slept inside in the comfort of having walls and never worried of being crept up on.

Later after the battle has started we still see him hold on to his morals as much as he can. Even though he has to fight and kill the British, he still shows his strength in his morals in the battlefield. “God’s name, what are you to rob the dead with the fight going on! Cousin Simmons roared.” (Fast #147) We see just high of morals that Joseph has, and just how much he holds to

He’s asleep on the floor with blankets messily thrown over him. I bet this is his room. He’s still asleep and slightly snoring. He looks

Joseph also assumes that if you are not a true image of man then you are considered a deviation. He suspects that if you are a deviation then you are sent by the devil. Additionally, if you are a deviation then you don't deserve to live. Altogether, Joseph is seen to be a man who is viciously devoted to his religion.

Just this sentence shows how much Joseph has developed and matured as a person throughout the novel. It asserts that even if Tom were to act as if he didn’t exist and hide in his room all day Joseph would still want him to come out, because he believes that he is a wonderful person who is wasted hiding away like that.

She motioned with her head towards the foot of the bed. “You know that it is not going to happen.”

“Sitting at the dais, I felt tired but much too excited to think about sleep. I glanced around the room and smiling faces turned toward me. Someone asked whether I was ready to leave. I shook my head. ‘I'd like to stay awhile longer.”

John shook his head and headed back to the bedroom, forgetting the reason for leaving it in the first place. He walked over to the bed admiring the naked lady laying on it.

No one understood what he was going through and he had no one to lean on. Because he has to deal with everything himself, he has many internal and external conflicts. He has to deal with the fact that his only friend and the love of his life is gone forever. Unfortunately, he does not fully share his thoughts or problems to the reader or people around him. With a positive tone, the author states that "it was inside him and outside him, and it was already starting to scream, and it was getting louder and his brain was getting louder and he threw water in his face but he couldn’t stop it” (Schmidt 82). This quote displays the fact that he is a very troubled boy who has a lot on his plate. Joseph has to overcome all of his problems by himself, and he feels like he is going to explode. Joseph is also becoming a dynamic character because he starts to get closer to his family. Once he does this, he beings to tell them his story, and what had happened to him. This is an incredibly important part in the story because it really shows the reader what Joseph is like on the inside. Similarly, it explains that he is capable of sharing his

The clang of the swords on the shields pierced General Julius Caesar’s ear. He couldn’t wait till the war against the Greeks was over and he could return home to his wife. He slaughtered 113 enemy soldiers and was still on the hunt to find one. He stepped over 47 bodies, some of which were still breathing and groaning their last breaths on the eastern shore of the river Acheron. Caesar's nemesis was General Brutus,the leader of the greek army, and his old best friend. After the battle at the River of Acheron, General Julius Caesar rode back to his camp, Gleaming in his Ice-white armour, shining in his glory after his victory vs the Greeks.

	Julius Caesar vacillates, or changes, his mind throughout the play and this downfall is shown to be one of Caesar’s hamartias. On the day Caesar is to go to the Capitol, he changes his decisions frequently. Caesar defies the warnings of Calpurnia and the priests and Caesar says that she, Caesar, shall go forth to the Capitol this day. "Caesar. Caesar shall forth. The things that threatened me Ne’er looked but on my back. When they shall see The face of Caesar, they are vanished." Through this quotation, it seems Caesar has made his mind to go forth to the Capitol. Calpurnia, though, is able to persuade him to stay home and send word that he is sick. Caesar replies, "Caesar. Mark Antony shall say I am not well, And for thy humour I will stay at home."(2,2,55-56) Decius then flatters Caesar and is able to persuade him that Calpurnia’s nightmare is misinterpreted and that he

Another interesting element the author employs to make Joseph’s decision seem more plausible is the element of symbolism. The author uses the Pacheco house to symbolize Joseph’s illusions about the island and the fact that Joseph is dying on the inside by staying on the island. The Pacheco house is an old abandoned mansion that Joseph and his friends would throw rocks at as children. They named the windows after school teachers and would throw rocks at the windows trying to break them. They had never been able to break the top attic window, called the Lenoir window, named after a priest who was the terror of all the students. Now as an adult, Joseph revisits the Pacheco
