H.G. Wells’ “The Time Machine” -- A Discourse on Social
Structure
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses “The Time Machine” and
the ways in which the world of the future provided a commentary
on Wells own time. When the story is viewed as a social construct
of the world it takes on yet another tonal quality and presents a
realm in which class consciousness exists as a fundamental
cornerstone of social order. As a result, the book can serve as
an allegory facilitating a discussion of socialism and its
principles of equality. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Henry Fielding's "Tom Jones": Hunting As A Metaphor
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The relationship that exists between Blifil and Jones in Henry Fielding's "Tom Jones" is one that resembles the hunter and his prey. Since the time of their infancies, Blifil has quite clearly demonstrated an intolerance toward the boy who was to grow up as his brother. Indeed, Blifil made childhood and adolescence a
living hell for Jones, who was routinely made the scapegoat for his blatant lies. Whether he is driven by jealousy or downright malevolence, Blifil assumes the hunter's position early on in Fielding's tale. No additional sources cited.

Henry Fielding's "Tom Jones": Internal Debate Of Virtue And Vice
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The internal debate that rages inside the lead character of Henry Fielding's "Tom Jones" of deciding whether he should follow his virtue or his vice is one that carries through the entire book. Clearly, Jones is compelled by benevolent forces yet he is also motivated by
temptation that has a tendency to find him trouble. Many occasions find him struggling with doing what he perceives is the right thing at the moment, only to find that he has once again made the wrong decision. Analyzing what goes on in Jones' head when he experiences these moments, one will undoubtedly find that underneath his roguish exterior, he truly does want to overrule his oftentimes-shadier side. When Jones argues with himself over his conduct and the desire to act upon impulse, he is quick to acknowledge the less-than-prudent aspect of his actions; however, at the
same time there is an incessant urge that many times
overwhelms his better judgment, ultimately coercing him to follow through with the questionable action. No additional sources cited.
