    Sister James‚ a nun in her twenties‚ consistently deals with multiple problems in the play Doubt: A Parable by John Shanley. She is at the heart of the focal conflict in the play‚ but deals with personal conflicts. She is extremely impressionable and makes the audience aware of her uncertainty throughout the play‚ rather than full heartedly agreeing with Sister Aloysius or Father Flynn. With doubt being the absence of certainty‚ but still as powerful as faith‚ Sister James accurately represents the

    who was by them congratulated Weathers‚ the victor‚ which aggravated the anger and violence in Farrington more. Analysis: In this section‚ the aspect and theme that I find particularly dominant is that of the physicality of Farrington and the way Joyce describes this. It is described in a masculine way; showing off what Farrington believes is manly‚ yet with Weathers’ masculinity described as below his‚ it showed that what Farrington thinks he is‚ a strong masculine man‚ he in fact isn’t. This section

    flow a lot smoother. This style of writing is very hard to conquer but James Joyce holds the undisputed title. Due to the brilliance of James Joyce‚ the use of stream of consciousness in Dubliners has a great affect on his story. From the two passages that were required to read‚ Joyce brings about similarities between his works. In "Araby" and "Eveline" his characters both had to overcome a struggle in their paths.

The protagonist is fiercely determined to invest in someone within this Church the holiness he feels should be the natural state of all within it‚ but a succession of

    James Joyce - A Little Cloud (in: Dubliners) A Little Cloud has not generated significant critical debate‚ despite Warren Beck’s unorthodox interpretation of the denouement in 1969. Chandler’s relationship with his son – not with his wife Annie or journalist/ friend Gallaher – could be the crucial‚ epiphanal element of the story - Joyce portraying a father who is just beginning to ‘learn [...] what the heart is and what it feels’ (A Portrait 252)‚ a man whose conscience is awakened‚ despite his
