What are 2 different conflicts in the story “The Scarlet Ibis”
White raven [17]
The main conflict of "The Scarlet Ibis" by James Hurst is Brother's inability to deal with Doodle's disabilities: his concern more for himself than Doodle. When Doodle is born, Brother considers killing him because he is "not right." He was born when I was six and was, from the outset, a disappointment

Doodle and his brother helps show the theme of trying to meet the expectations of others and yourself can harm oneself. Additionally, Doodle struggles internally with his own expectations. He hopes to become more able for himself and others, but his body cannot keep up.

Write three to four sentences in which you analyze Dickinson’s style in this poem. Be sure to discuss one or two specific elemen
NeTakaya
<span>Dickinson's style is largely influenced by thematic elements. A major theme treated by Dickinson is scopophilia, or the "pleasure of seeing". Through use of the first person, rich description, and a sense of immediacy, Dickinson allows the reader to really put himself in the shoes of the narrator and "see for himself". The end result is a fast paced and relatable poem.</span>

In Lord of The Flies, which events foreshadow the boy's descent into savagery?
defon
In Lord of the Flies, Golding deliberately develops the boys' descent into savagery slowly, as to reveal the dangerous and seductive nature of giving over to base urges and animalistic desires. The boys arrive on the island as proper English school boys, complete in their privage school uniforms and choir togs, but even during their first day on the island, the reader can see how the environment of the island challenges the boys' former preconceptions of proper social behavior. For example, the oppressive heat immediately has the boys stripping out of their school clothes to be more comfortable; in normal society, running around naked would be strictly taboo, but on the island, of course, the boys begin to accept their nudity as a practical matter.

The boys' shedding their clothes is the first major indicator of their transformation into savages, but perhaps the most shocking example of true savagery occurs in Chapter Eight, "Gift for the Darkness," as the hunters ruthlessly and violently hunt and kill the sow. Hunting in itself is not an indicator of true savagery, but the boys' violent actions, exultation, and sheer enjoyment of the brutality during the act suggests that they have completely transformed into violent savages. The boys feel an inherent thrill as they stalk their victim during the hunt and work themselves practically into a frenzy as they jab their spears at the sow. Roger, particularly, derives enjoyment from the sows' shrill squeal as he drives his spear in further. The shocking blood-lust demonstrated by Jack, Roger, and the other hunters not only reveals their true savage natures, but also foreshadows future scenes of death, such as Simon's tragic end
