But other factors also played a role in westward movement, although it's influence wasn't as imposing as the environment. The people that already lived in those areas, the Indians, naturally fought against these white faced foes to keep the land that was once theirs. But other factors also played an important role.

- 1033: A Wife For My Son
- ... point I thought the author should have mentioned was the fact that not all women face this problem of traditional arranged marriages. Also not all families are so strict with their children. I myself have lived in that part of the world for many years and I have to say that not all females find themselves in this sort of situation. Also tradition does not always stand in the way of ... not let tradition push her back and prevent her from dreaming and wishing for a better life for her self. "A Wife for My Son" has somewhat opened my eyes. I say this because I lived in a Muslim society for years and I know what goes on behind closed doors. I really hope that anyone who reads this book does not think that all people that come from a Muslim ...
- 1034: The Role Of Women In Utopia An
- ... This again could be taken as proof that women were considered incapable of having a mind of their own.

I feel there were certainly false expectations of women at the time and their life appeared to be organised from when they were born (which makes Desdemona's independent stance on marriage all the ...

- 1036: Love In "The Gift Of The Magi" And "The Necklace": Is It Worth The Sacrifice?
- ... Necklace,” the story also involves a couple, but greed and selfishness controls the plot. Jim and Della were a young married couple, like Mr. and Mme. Loisel, who were immature and foolish. They both lived in run down, shabby flats in big cities. The apartments were dark and dreary, which symbolized something bad might happen. These were both times of depression where there was very little money around, so there ... what each other had gone through to get the presents. Then in “The Necklace” the theme dealt with greed and selfishness. Again, if Mme. Loisel just would have told the truth, she would have lived an all-around better life. Both stories showed you how two couples of similar lifestyles can still be totally different. The authors had great ways of showing how love conquers all and honesty is the ...
