Peter De Salvo April 27, 2012 EN Myths and Legends Assignment #3 Disguise and Multiple Identities in Huckleberry Finn “Sarah Mary Williams. Sarah’s my first name. Some calls me Sarah, some calls me Mary.” (Twain 51) This is just one of the many cases of a disguise, impersonation, and fake name that is seen in Mark Twain’s novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. From the time he was a child, he was living a life of lies and “pretending” to be something that he wasn’t. Eventually, it would lead him to running away and attempting to escape this crooked society.
By the time he became king, he was so paranoid about the people around him that he could not even enjoy being the king. Banquo is Macbeth’s right hand man and he too was there when the three witches prophesied that Macbeth would be king. They told him that although he would not be king, his son would start a long line of rulers. Macbeth kills Banquo because he is nervous that he will tell the others about him becoming king. In the end, the sons of the old king and Macduff, enemy of Macbeth, join forces to defeat Macbeth and take the throne.
When Louis came to power, he became convinced that Fouquet was attempting to become the new Mazarin. Just dismissing Fouquet from his current position would not have been enough; Louis wanted to make clear that the days of a 1st minister were over. Fouquet, now realising that his position was in danger, tried to use the king’s mistress, Louise, to come closer and increase his influence on Louis. The king’s mistress found out of the game Fouquet was playing and told the king. Louis was infuriated and Fouquet was forced to grovel to the king.
The Declaration of Independence persuaded other colonist to separate from England, to stand against the King, and to fight for independence. The reasons colonist wanted to revolt against England were mostly because of the King and how selfish and unfair he was. Colonist believed all men were created equal, so therefore when the King put himself above everyone else, it displeased the colonist. In the Declaration of Independence it states “He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.” Colonist used the selfish things the King did to persuade others to revolt. The King tried to force men to give up their rights to make laws.
The event of celebration that it had been for over a thousand years was descending into a money-making ploy by the corporations of the world. In fact, the Santa Claus we know today was shaped by the multi-billion dollar corporations. As we all know, when Dr. Seuss wrote his books, he most often included a theme, or ‘moral of the story’ as a guide for young children to help them learn important values. In his work, “The Grinch Who Stole Christmas”, Dr. Seuss openly protested the commercialization of Christmas. His work is very obviously Marxist-based, as it spoke clearly on issues of discrimination and misplaced values.
The reason this part is so good is because Dominick just kidnapped Edie’s baby because she stole him the money. The money she stole him cost his mother’s life because she needed the money for his abortion. In other words, he is just kidnapped a baby for no reason, his whole motivation to find Edie’s house and steal her baby has no logic since she paid him back already. The best part in my opinion is when he goes to New-York and he tries to find Edie’s house. This scene tells us so much about his mother, his brother Truman “Randolph Burdan” and his uncle Donald.
Upon further investigation, Friar Lawrence should receive the blame. Admittedly, Tybalt has a large influence on Romeo and Juliet’s death, because he caused the fight. Romeo tried to avoid it, but Mercutio joined in and started the fight and later Tybalt killed Mercutio. Romeo got mad and killed Tybalt and got exiled from Verona. However, Friar Lawrence is more responsible than Tybalt for the deaths of our “star cross’d lovers” because he allowed Romeo and Juliet marry and it caused Romeo to avoid the fight at first with Tybalt, than later tried to stop the fight between Tybalt and Mercutio and caused Mercutio to get killed by Tybalt.
[Minister:]'You don't deserve to eat. "(7) This shows the hypocrisy of religion. Although the minister had just been telling others to help the less fortunate, he himself doesn’t abide to his words. Furthermore, Cunegonde's money is stolen by a religious friar: " Reverend Grey Friar, who …came into our room twice, and he set out upon his journey long before us." (21) It is evident that he stole from Cunegonde because he left before they noticed, an act usually done by the guilty.
