Poetic Justice

The short story “The Man Who Loved Flowers” by Stephen King, is told by a third person omniscient narrator. This is illustrated when the narrator describes the characters as the pronouns ‘he’ and ‘her’ and also since the narrator has access to multiple characters’ thoughts and feelings. For instance in this quote it is clear to see that he uses the pronouns ‘he’ and ‘her’.

In The Republic, the great philosopher Plato attempts to reveal through the character and dialogues of Socrates that justice is better when it is the good for which men must strive for, regardless of whether they could be unjust and still be rewarded. His method is to use dialectic, the asking and answering of questions. This method leads the audience from one point to another, supposedly with indisputable logic by obtaining agreement to each point before going on to the next, therefore, building an argument.

Everyone has to grow up eventually, some just tend to take it better more than others, it could be the fear or gaining more responsibility or the fact that getting older means that your parents are too and with your old age comes their time to go, the fear of not being ready or prepared for what life has to offer you and you being on your own to find out

same way Peter Pan could not stand to age even a year. With growing up and older, the world around you seems to change within itself

Having each story been written in a third-person narrative form, the reader knows the innermost feelings of the

The introduction of the main character Connie, “Her name was Connie,”signals that it is being told by a third person narrator. This narrative voice stays closely aligned to Connie's point of view. The reader learns what her thoughts are, but the narrator provides no additional information or judgment of the situation. For instance, Connie's harsh thoughts of her sister and mother are discussed: "now (her mother's) looks were gone and that was why she was always after Connie," but it is clear that this assessment is Connie's and not the narrator's.

The word injustice is being said and expressed in our world today. What some people don’t know is that the action of injustice occurs all around us. Injustice lives all around us from protests for civil rights to racial stereotypes being aggregated in schools. In the book Just Mercy, injustice is clearly seen in the lives of those who are non-Caucasian and those who are women. For example, Walter McMillian faces injustice for being African-American and being in the same place that a crime is taking place. Automatically, the police arrest him as a suspect. Instead of giving him a fair trial, they put him on death row. Injustice is seen in this event because he isn’t given the opportunity to prove that he isn’t guilty. Us as citizens, I believe

The book, Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption, written by Bryan Stevenson is about the bias and unjustness in the United States justice system. The book begins when Stevenson was an intern for the Southern Prisoners Defense Committee (SPDC), it was during that time that he had his first encounter with a condemned man on death row. During that meeting the inmate talked about an array of things: from his personal life and family, to the unethical happenings during his trial. It was that chance encounter that would spark Stevenson’s true passion of helping those that had their constitutional rights trampled on. During his time at Harvard Law he would find himself questioning his choice in professions, he felt disconnected from his

The administration of punishment should serve the offender and should be in the form and severity that is necessary for the meeting of the objective.

This class is the first in my major of Criminal Justice, and throughout this class there will be a great deal of valuable information obtained. Justice can have several meanings to it because all of us are different in our own way, and we all will have different outlook on situations. Throughout this research paper you will learn about what justice means to me, and how I think I will impact society once I achieve my bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. Secondly, you will be able to compare with the remaining of the class mates to see exactly how many of our views are the same or different. Last but not least, there will be at least two

The strongly placed point of view creates a characteristic voice in the story. The voice ultimately reminds one of a ‘stream of consciousness’-technique, which influences the story in general. The element of changing appellations stresses how the two kinds of processes are going on in the story; the associating way of reflecting along with the developing state of mind. The different use of how the main character titles himself from “Lane A. Dean, Jr. … Lane Dean, Jr. … Lane Dean … Lane”5 shows how he is mentally changing back and forth, emphasizing this circularly and non-linear reflection. On the other hand the naming of Lane’s girlfriend, Sheri, shows a linear development from “his girlfriend … the girl … she … Sheri … Sheri Fisher”6. The way in which the girlfriend is named gives an impression of how the main character is developing his view of the girlfriend throughout the story. From an anonymous approach, ‘the girl’, to actually addressing her by her full name “Sheri Fisher”, This use of the narrative technique creates a stream of consciousness and creates an associating but yet authentic feeling – a feeling that enlightens the complex main theme of the story.

The play Trifles, written in 1916, by Susan Glaspell shows a strong theme of justice. Throughout this play the three men they are worried about finding evidence to bring John Wright’s killer to justice. Mr. Henderson, also know as the County Attorney, talks to an eyewitness and looks at the room of the murder as well. While collecting date and evidence the Attorney couldn’t find a motive to bring justice to Mr. Wright’s death, “…it's all perfectly clear except a reason for doing it.” At the end of the play Mr. Henderson comes up short, but chooses to stay by himself to get find a motive and get justice for the murder.

Adolescents try to figure out who they are in order to form a basic identity that they will build on throughout their life; whereas, older adults acquire a lifetime of self-knowledge, which leads to a more secure and complex understanding of themselves than at earlier ages.

Over the decades, the concept of justice has been continually evolving. This is occurring based upon different moral or legal interpretations. Evidence of this can be seen with observations from Burke (2011) who said, "Few things are of more importance to a society than its concept of justice. This is because it is justice that provides criterion for the legitimate use of force. In the name of justice people are detained, arrested, handcuffed, put on trial and punished. This concept is used to provide every society with some kind of social order. Over the last 200 years, a revolution has taken place with these principles. Our idea of it is what we employ, when dealing with ordinary individuals in daily life including: making agreements, paying bills, resolving disputes and putting criminals in jail. This is a concept that is as old as recorded history and it is familiar to people everywhere. What makes it so unique is that these ideas are constantly changing which focuses on society as a whole and how people are interacting with each other. " (Burke)
