Analysis Of The Book ' Severus Snape '

After Scout confronts Atticus about “defending negros”, Atticus replies on how this decision is for his own dignity: “‘For a number of reasons’, said Atticus. ‘The main one is, if I didn’t, I couldn’t hold up my head in town, I couldn’t represent this county in the legislature, I couldn’t even tell you or Jem not to do something again.’” (123; ch.9). Out of the lots of prejudice in Maycomb County, Atticus is one that looks passed race and gender. He holds equal respect for those who abide by the laws of being human. Not much of population consist of people like Atticus, who is not just fighting for Tom for the sake of the town, but for his own virtue. It takes a lot of integrity to stand up for what is right during that time and that is exactly what Atticus is making an effort to do.

Throughout Harper Lee’s novel To Kill a Mockingbird, it seems as if Atticus Finch is a failure as both a parent and a lawyer. However, somebody with a good understanding of the novel will realise that Atticus is in fact a terrific lawyer and a superb father. However, like all people, Atticus has his flaws.

Albus Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts, looked out for Harry and Harry had to look up to him. Albus was his mentor. Harry’s teachers were a big help to him. There were ones that didn’t seem particularly fond of Harry. One of them was Snape, he picked on Harry in class when he couldn’t answer the questions he asked correctly. Snape also seems to hate Harry. In the end, Snape had pushed Harry to become better. Harry was able to use these skills by going out and being a hero.

Harry Potter is a fascinating tale of sorcerers, wands, broomsticks, dragons, and magic. The story begins with a young boy named Harry Potter who lives at number four Privit Drive, Surray, England. His journey begins after the death of his parents at the hands of the evil Lord Voldemort. Harry learns of his past and his future as a wizard from Hagrid, the keeper of keys and grounds at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He travels to Hogwarts where he learns spells and enchantments, makes new friends, finds enemies, and discovers fantastic secretes. J.K. Rowling weaves a web of impeccable storytelling with this critically acclaimed novel. In the tale of Harry Potter imagery, symbolism, and motif take central focus.

With these attributes, however, he would not remain as inconspicuous as we wished him to; that year, the school buzzed with talk about him defending Tom Robinson, none of which was complimentary. After my bout with Cecil Jacobs when I committed myself to a policy of cowardice, word got around that Scout Finch wouldn’t fight any more, her daddy wouldn’t let her. This was not entirely correct: I wouldn’t fight publicly for Atticus, but the family was private ground. I would fight anyone from a third cousin upwards tooth and nail. Francis Hancock, for example, knew

Despite living in Alabama in the 1930s, Atticus Finch expects his children to treat everyone- regardless of race or class- with respect and dignity. There are many opportunities for Jem and Scout to concede to the Southern stereotypes of the 1930s, but with the guidance of Atticus and their housekeeper, Calpurnia, the children challenge the common stereotypes of the South- with some lessons learned. These stereotypes are based principally on race and social class. Several cases of these stereotypes arise throughout To Kill a Mockingbird. Many racial and social class stereotypes come out during Tom Robinson’s trial as well as during the children’s everyday lives.

Harry potter and the prisoner of Azkaban is an excellent book. Out of ten stars I would rate this one an eight because it was to short. Once you get into it and finish it. It seems so short, because it is so interesting. Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban starts out with a bang. In the beginning Sirius black a Man accused of thirteen murders in one night escapes from Azkaban.( A wizard prison guarded to the tee by dementors, deadly spirits that feast on anything happy. Basically they suck the life out of you slowly until you go mad and lose sanity). Harry runs away on the same night and crosses the man without realizing it. Since Sirius is an ananamugus he is able to turn into a giant black

Lucius is an important member of Voldemort’s army, and it could be argued that he would be in the inner circle with the highest ranking officers. He exemplifies Hitler’s Aryan ideology, as seen in the interview with Jason Isaacs, the actor who played Lucius Malfoy, conducted by Naomi Pfefferman. When providing a background of Lucius, she states that, “With his long, blonde hair, and imperious blue eyes, Lucius Malfoy – a henchman of the genocidal Lord Voldemort – has a Nazi-like obsession with the preservation of blood purity, disapproving of marriages between Muggles (mortals) and magic folk” . The ideal of “blood purity” is a large part of the persona of Lucius Malfoy. Throughout most of the movies, he makes many actions towards Hermione, a Mudblood, and Ron, from a poor magical family, putting them down and showing his hatred towards people who are unlike him.

Throughout Wuthering Heights, there are multiple symbols employed to enrich the overall narrative, many of which have a multitude of meanings in order to elevate the text to a higher literary standard. One of the less obvious motifs is books. However, when reviewing their role in both Catherine and Cathy’s lives it is not clear to what degree it would be fair to claim they have a central role in the overall narrative, especially because of the “plurality” and “ambiguity” of each individual instance where the symbolism of books is introduced.

Collis Potter Huntington was a man who was known for his nonstop ambition, great railroad builder and an extraordinary financier. Many people know him as part of “The Big Four” or the man who was involved in the transcontinetal railroads. The transcontinental railroads was Huntington’s prodigious project of his lifetime, but he had his hand in a little bit of every business in the United States. Huntington’s ambition did not let him stop after his success with the transcontinental railroad, he kept on travelling and creating more projects for himself. “People have said about him that he has done greater things where it has helped America to progress”. Some people are born to be behind the curtains doing the most work to make a change

(Remember to say According to the text, or The author says, or On page ____ the author states)

severus snape is one of the most misunderstood character ever. he lived a disgusting life his father was abusive, he falled in a bad company, and the girl he liked married a bully, his experiences in life made him isolated and he turned into a really harsh individual...it was not that now he stopped crying, actually he was very weak from inside but he learned hiding his weaknesses controlling his fears...he learned that dominating is the only way to

The Grimm brothers, in their short story, “Hansel and Gretel”, illuminate the idea of vulnerability, innocence, and determination through two children’s eyes, and how in time, they become who they need to be in order to overcome their obstacle. The two words, “vulnerability” and “innocence” are known adjectives when one thinks of a child, thus fitting almost perfectly when describing Hansel and Gretel. With these natural childlike traits instilled within the two, they have no choice but to become dependent upon one another. These two brothers have constructed a great deal of imagery throughout the story which represents the innocence of a child. The authors develop symbolism throughout the story which in return, helps support my thesis. Unless one takes a closer look within the text, they just might overlook what it actually represents. There is a great use of diction throughout this short story which simply helps describe the two children, Hansel and Gretel. “The white pebbles…glistening like silver coins” is a complete depiction of a young child (Grimm 15). White as we all know represents purity, and the comparison of the pebbles to silver coins creates represents a childlike view of excitement and innocence. This excitement and vivid imagination of Hansel occurs just in time after overhearing the parents plan. There’s a white(purity) cat that the boy mentions when leaving home. Both objects are white, the pebbles and the cat. These two things also represent hope that the

People tend naively see orphans and those without caring families as hopeless and loveless creatures. However, the goodness of strangers can easily prove these thoughts nonsensical as people can provide an abundance of support and love to those with no blood relation to them and can embrace strangers as family. In Charles Dickens’ two novels Great Expectations and Oliver Twist, Dickens challenges the typical idea of parentage and suggests the through love and generosity anyone can become a guardian or mentor figure. Therefore, people should not place as much faith in blood relations and look to others for sources of guidance and compassion.

The movie adaptation of J.K Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is a very pivotal movie in the series. Like the book, this movie is crucial in setting up an understanding for the rest of the series. Therefore it is important that the movie complements the novel as much as possible. Using one of the most essential features of a movie; visual imagery, the movie adaptation of the fourth novel is a good accompaniment for the novel. The visual imagery in this movie emphasizes emotions and reactions that we cannot possibly obtain from the book. For example, the death of Cedric Diggory at the end of the movie strikes a powerful emotional response as a result of his father, Amos Diggory’s grief. Seeing him cry makes the audience more
