While the term theme was for a time used to reference the message and the moral, literary critics now rarely use it in this namely becose to the confusion it causes about the common sign of theme the subject of discourse, discussion, conversation.

Themes in Frankenstein

Quote: "They are dead; and but one feeling in such a solitude can persuade me to preserve my life. If I were engaged in any high undertaking or design, fraught with extensive utility to my fellow-creatures, then I could live to fullfill it. But such is not my destiny; I must pursue and destroy the being to whom I gave existence; then my lot on earth will be fullfiled, and I may die".

Theme: guilt, solitude.

Explanation: In this quote we can see the main character (Victor Frankenstein) expresses his feeling of solitude becose the monster killed all the people he loved leaving him alone and this can explain why later he thinks in commiting suicide and he also feel guilty becose is his creation who muerdered the ones he known so the only thing he wants is to destroy the thing he have created to stop his nightmare.

The trial

The Trial

Its is a form of tribunal, with the authority to judge legal problems between "teams" and execute the administration of crime ,justice, and administrative things that have to do with the laws. In law sistems, courts are the central means for the resolution of disputes, and it is generally understood that all persons have an ability to bring their claims before a court. Similarly, the  right of those accused of a crime include the right to present a defense before a court.

In my case i was part of the prossecution group, who are incharge to prossecute the person accused in this case Victor Frankenstein .This activity in my opinion was a very interesting way to make a review of the gothic novel Frankenstein becose the team work, the organization and the knowledge about the book was a very good method to remember the book, and im sure i will never forget the book again.

Chapter 3: DisciplineLetter from Pennyfeather to Arthur potts

Dear Arthur
About the question that you asked me, I think that the teachers need to explain to the students how to have more control with themeself because when the kids grow up and they have problems in different things, they will know what to do. Now i can finnaly see that you are a better  friend than I expected. I just dont understand  why Mr Digby Vane Trumpington went to your room in the night and  I also think that 20 ₤  is very annoying and I think that is more insulting because he was very irresponsable so thanks you for putting him in a good place and also telling him that he has a wrong opinion or view about it .I think the same as you, because money cant be a sort of excuse and apologyse. Thanks alot my friend, please dont accept the money because is not enoght compared to my shame.Talking 

your dear friend, 
Paul Pennyfeather
PD, it dont matters how much of money he offers you please dont accept it, trust me.

How does language reflect culture?

 

How does language reflect culture?

How does language reflect culture?

The ways in which language reflects culture are sometimes very small, based on studies, they can be many in the languages. In most common languages, all words are derived from three-letter roots, and when comparing words of the same places, you will notice that they share a single abstract concept which reflects the society perception of the concept. 

 

Examples of how language can reflect culture is firstly in vocabularies and variations within them. This may also reflect the material needs of people speaking it, and the climate they live in for example, the northen rusian has alot of words, to us all meaning simply snow, with many distinctions of the different properties of kinds of snow.
Words of more abstract meaning are generally the key to investigating this matter, as they generally are more directly connected to thinking and behaviour the culture.
