<u>Fire in the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley:</u>

In the novel Frankenstein written by Mary Shelley, the scientist named Victor Frankenstein resurrects a dead body and bridges the space between life and death.

With the help of some stolen organs and assorted limbs of corpses he builds a lifeless body and brings the creature into life. Then the creature swears a revenge against Victor for bringing him into this cruel world.

Fire, the dual-edged sword of light provides warmth, light and protects from wild animals and in addition to that has many destructive effects.

The Greek god Prometheus bestowed the knowledge of fire upon humans and then as a result of this got punished. Likewise, Victor Frankenstein gets punished and his knowledge of secret of life remains a secret.

Theme is uncovered through the characters and events of a story. Which two events express Janie’s underlying belief that true lo
ddd [48]
The two events that most relate to Janie's view that true love is the key to happiness are when she meets Tea Cake, and when her image of Jody is shattered after he hits her. This is because when Janie meets Tea Cake, her whole world view changes. He treats her as an equal, and she can be herself around him. Once she falls for him, it changes essentially everything for her. 

Janie's image of Jody "shattering" is also representative of this view of Janie's, because it represents what can happen to one's happiness when they <em>don't </em> have true love. Janie thought fairly highly of Jody, and she loved him, but when he hits her, her happiness and love for him is gone.

In 300 words or less, compare and contrast the symbol of "the road" in Walt Whitman's "Song of the Open Road" and Robert Frost's
alexgriva [62]
The Song of the Open Road and The Road Not Taken show the difference between Walt Whitman and Robert Frohavest in their perpectives on roads. To Walt Whitman going on the Open Road is like going on an adventure and revelling in all the sights and sounds that one passes whereas for Robert Frost when he says for example, Two roads diverged in the yellow wood" and that philosophically the road one takes in life determines your experiences and perspectives on life so that say someone who never leaves the say small town he/she grew up in will most likely have a more narrow perspective on life than someone who ventured out in the world and travelled and encountered other cultures etc.
