Three Men in a Boat is a deceptively simple story: three friends take a boating holiday on the River Thames. At first sight this does not seem a likely plot for a classic work of comedy‚ and the fact that it was written in the late Victorian period and was an instant bestseller seems even harder to believe. Nowadays a sense of humour does not immediately spring to mind as a defining characteristic of the Victorians‚ particular as Queen Victoria herself is famous for the remark‚ ‘We are not amused

My favorite person in the movie of 12 angry men was especially juror number 8 and the old man juror 9‚ also juror number 6. The reason i liked juror number 8 is because‚ juror 8 didn’t agree guilty right away just like the other jurors‚ number 8 really wanted to explain why everyone voted guilty. He didn’t right away think that the kid was really a murderer‚because of the father as the court had said that the father was abusive and that the kid was everywhere as an orphan but so long to be beaten

for the jury in Twelve Angry Men to reach its final verdict? Rose shows that in Twelve Angry Men it is difficult to reach a verdict when jurors essentially have pre conceived ideas and bring personal prejudice in a case‚ along with Jurors that lack interest. These factors undoubtedly cause conflict and difficulty in the Jury system‚ which highlights a potential weakness in the democratic process. The trouble also arises from the fact that Juror 8 is one of the few Jurors to initially deliberate

Law- D1 In this essay I intend to evaluate the effectiveness of lay personnel and the advantages and the disadvantages of magistrates and jurors. Lay members (Magistrates) have legal advisers within points of law and live locally as they have to live close so that they know the area well. Also it is cheaper to send cases to lay magistrates than using professional judges because they are cheaper and do their work voluntarily. Many magistrates are from a good gender balance; this can benefit them

Tension is created in chapter 3 building up to the moment Candy’s dog is shot with the repeated use of silence. The word ‘silence’ is used 3 times to describe the atmosphere of the room leading up to the moment the dog is shot. The silence is described as ‘[coming] out of the night and invading the room’. From this personification we can deduce that Steinbeck wanted the reader to view the silence as an intruder. Because it is seen as such‚ the presence of something unwanted can give a sense of danger
