Last, Turgenev expounds on the modernist ideology and its impact through depicting changes in perspectives on nature's purpose. Formerly, people viewed nature as something beautiful and mysteriously connected to the rest of life, which is clear in Nikolai's comment to Arkady that, "In honor of [Arkady's] arrival ... spring's in full bloom" (11). Likewise, people previously considered nature aesthetically pleasing and artistic as seen in Nikolai's relation to spring via a popular Russian poem,…

Even if Dally was a high standing person in the gang, he committed terrible acts in the past but was still a sympathetic character. Not only was he high standing, but he always somehow found his way into trouble. In the beginning, Ponyboy is talking about Dally's past right after a bunch of Socs jumped him." He had been arrested, he got drunk, rode rodeos, lied, cheated, rolled drunks, jumped small kids- he did everything." This reveals that a lot of people might have despised Dally for the…

When most people think about the word “isolation”, they think about being stranded on a beautiful tropical island with a nice tan and a Wilson volleyball by their side. I disagree with the other’s definitions wholeheartedly. I believe isolation can be described by three of our five senses: feeling, hearing, and seeing. Isolation feels like being trapped.
