Roylott. The title of this narrative is “The Adventure of the Speckled Band”, and was written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. There are 3 main justifications for the conclusion that Mr. Holmes is not guilty. He was acting in self-defense against the swamp adder. Sherlock could have no idea that Dr.Roylott was in the other room, in the exact spot in which the snake would reappear. Additionally, Sherlock had no idea of knowing that what he was defending himself from was a poisonous snake. These three statements

And for my part I know no personal cause to spurn at him, But for the general. He would be crowned: How that might change his nature, there’s the question. It is the bright day that brings forth the adder, And that craves wary walking. Crown him that, And then I grant we put a sting on him That at his he will do danger with. Th’ abuse of greatness is when it disjoins Remorse from power. And, to speak truth of Caesar, I have not known when his Affections

Grimesby Roylott’s death, and I cannot say that it is likely to weigh very heavily upon my conscience” (Doyle). It is clear that both men were aware that Dr. Roylott would not have come to such a fatal end if the swamp adder had not been agitated but according to Holmes’ moral, there was justice in this case. Within this text, justice can be defined as “an eye for an eye” (Hammurabi’s Code) with the occurrence of his death after he ended his step-daughter’s life. Dr. Roylott

Act 3 scene 2 of A Midsummer Night's Dream 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' is a comedy written by Shakespeare in the Elizabethan times, still performed in the present day.

In fact, this kind of racial otherness exists all around the world: people just think only their race is orthodox, and all the others are evil as well as uncultivated. Then, how racial otherness is interpreted in gothic works? By comparing and analyzing several gothic works, this paper will explore

Power is something that most people want in their lives. You can’t do this by yourself. In obtaining power you need the assistance of those that share the same views as you.

My earliest memories were counting to my mom and her asking me multiplication test questions, before I knew any letters.
