Foreshadowing is uses throughout the majority of the novella, it all starts when George tells Lennie to hide in brush if he gets into any trouble like he did in weed. This hints that something bad is going to happen. Something as bad as when they got chased out of weed. Another example of foreshadowing is the constant killing
Steinbeck also suggests that Crooks is extremely lonely, when he quotes, 'Crooks could leave his things about'. Therefore, Crooks had no worries that someone will enter his room and mess things about because never experienced another man entering his personal quarters which is highlighted by the scattered personal items on the floor. On another point, Crooks is mean to Lennie to make himself feel better but I guess the reader could forgive him for it because of his awful state and lonely life he leads. His possessions
Humbaba is evil. Many people who live in the city of Uruk fear Gilgamesh. Most would say that Gilgamesh himself is, in fact, evil. He does what he wants, and he tends to offend the gods.

The dog is evil because of the rabies and Atticus is the good guy. The second reason Atticus was the good guy because to shoot the poor dog that everybody loved was hard. But it was for the town’s safety. The next Novel used to support my opinion was Lord Of the Flies by William Golding. One struggle between good and evil when the
From the passage we can learn a lot more about Crooks’ characteristics and intellect. We find out that he lives in a “little room” away from everyone else. “broken harness” and “new leather” show us his work ethic but also give us an insight in to the inhumane, unjust, cruel behaviour hey had to face during the slave trade. “Crooks also had “his apple box over his bunk, both for himself and the horses”, Steinbeck is reinforcing the fact that blacks were treated like animals in 1930’s American society. Steinbeck is trying to put across the loneliness people felt at the ranch especially crooks.
Interrogating victims, hunting Llewelyn Moss, and evading Tom Bell. Chigurh often has symptoms similar to those of a psychopath, giving justifications to acts that could never be justified. His belief that he is a sort of ultimate being is the only justification that he needs to flip a coin and discard of a human life. Chigurh represents the bad choices made in life and is the ultimate evil that McCarthy uses to show one of the extremes in choice making. Tom Bell plays the sheriff of a small town police force who stumbles upon a drug deal gone wrong.
In the world, there is and always will be a war of good versus evil. It is a battle that will not end until the world itself has ended. In The Lord of the Flies, there are some boys who can be thought to represent evil, and boys who represent good in the world. Jack and Roger both symbolize savagery and evil with their horrible behavior and thirst for killing. Ralph and Simon are almost complete opposites of Jack and Roger, because they are symbols of good and purity in the book.
However, they also appear to be linked psychologically. It can be interpreted from a Freudian perspective that the monster is Victor’s ‘Id,’ who represents and indulges in Victor’s darkest desires by transgressing moral boundaries and committing immoral acts. The creature can be seen to commit evil acts when he kills William, who is a “sweet” and “gentle” child. This destruction of innocence is an act of revenge against Victor, which arguably shows the extreme and monstrous capabilities of humans. However, the monster’s narrative allows us to see a different and perhaps more sympathetic side to the story, in which the monster attempts to “educate” William and encourage him to be his “companion and friend,” to which William “violently” rejects him for being an “ugly” “monster.” What is most startling about this prejudice is that William is just a young child and has still been corrupted by society and its discriminatory ways.
The loss of Goodman Brown’s innocence starts to happen when Hawthorne writes “My journey, as thou callest it, forth and back again, needs to be done ‘twixt now and sunrise (3).” This means that Goodman Brown has already made the decision to go into the forest at night. The decision to go into the forest at night was the real danger because the forest at this time was considered to be devilish, frightening, and a dark place to be after the sun went down. Even though Goodman Brown’s wife Faith was against him going into the forest, he “felt himself justified in making more haste on his present evil purpose (3).” This means that Goodman Brown is starting to come to terms with his choice of going into the forest at night. The seventeenth century puritans also had a fear of the devil. The puritans thought that the devil could be any person or anything and appear at any given time or place.
He is sure not to mess with other people’s life but after Gatsby’s death we could see his shades when he meets Tom Buchanan Tom Buchanan (Black) Tom is a black character, dark and he hides many things.
