    Caritas Pirckheimer, held the position of an abbess in her convent, and encountered religious conflicts during her time in Nuremberg, Germany, St. Claire church. Between the years of 1524 to 1528, the Reformation created an issue where Pirckheimer, defended her cloister and sisters' rights in the City council's attempt to close it down and force the members to renounce their vows. The council made an effort to replace the Franciscans, who had been preachers and confessors to St. Claire, with different preachers who advocated the doctrine of Lutheranism (68). These efforts turned out to be problematic because the teachings of the Lutherans preached Christian freedom, and the idea that the laws of the Church and oaths of religious orders were invalid, and no one was obligated to keep them (68). The Protestant Reformation was a period where numerous convents had lost their spiritual focus because of the Lutheran preaching's. Some women were placed in convents against their will because of their families not being able to afford the high marriage dowries (Wiesner, 211). Therefore, many nuns took advantage of this freedom and "threw of their robes and habits" (68), wore secular clothing and jewellery, entertained visitors, ate fancy food, and left the convent to visit their family and friend (Wiesner, 210). The reformation sought to close the monasteries through persuasion, political pressure and physical intervention by townspeople and peasants (67).…

    I, Dick Malkovich decided to leave my tiny gold knife on the corner of Walnut Street in the city of Gotham to get a good ol’ laugh. I think to myself, ha! This is the cutest bodkin ever! No one will figure out its secret until its too late. I, patiently waited on a bench for the on-goers to pass by it and see if they would lay their puny little hands on it. The first victim was an funny looking male; he first noticed how odd it was for a knife to be randomly laying on the ground and immediately decided to pick it up. “Wow, what is this little knife doing here?” Suddenly, the ground hit him like cold water, and I, completely aware of what just took place, chuckled. I quickly ran to him and disposed of his body in a very horrid smelling dumpster nearby.…

    Guterson uses the crime genre to explore issues fundamental to human nature. The police procedural sub-genre allows the responder to see the conflict between justice and the prejudice that seeks to corrupt it.

Guterson uses classical allusion within the police procedural to purvey Nels’ desire for justice: ‘Nels was blind in his left eye…the right seemed preternaturally observant.’ Much of his physical weaknesses are superseded by the sharpness of his mind. The author’s mentioning of the right eye serves to personify this intelligence. In…
