...THE MORALS OF A MURDERER Faith, salvation and death. Three concepts that all intertwine at the subject of morality. The concept of morals is used to distinguish between right and wrong. Between insane and “troubled”. Between human and monster. Through the pretense of a “normal” family vacation, Flannery O’Connor subtly implements this concept of morality throughout her story A Good Man is Hard to Find. Even though this short story had multiple characters within it, the two characters who turned this work of literature into an analytical study of human morals were the Grandmother and the Misfit. In many ways, the reader is vulnerable to the morals and beliefs demonstrated within this story. But one thing that O’Connor has made certain to prove is that moral standards are what define you in society, but they don’t define you as a human. To have good morals does not mean one is a good person. As stated before, one important aspect of this short story was the Grandmother. Being a woman of religious backgrounds and one who doesn’t tend to take no for an answer, the Grandmother seemed to have gotten her way very often. Characterized as being selfish and self-absorbed, the grandmother is not an exemplary depiction of a Woman of God. But nonetheless, this is what she would be viewed as in her society. She may have been viewed as just an elderly woman, stuck in her ways. Unbeknownst to the other characters (but not the reader), beneath that façade she is a manipulative and cunning...

...Author Ray Bradbury wrote stories about people and the way science and technology can benefit us in many ways, however – he seemed really afraid of the malevolent side where tech either turns on us or is used against us. In Bradbury’s short stories The Veldt, There will come soft rains, and The Murderer, they all have a common theme where technology has a very twisted way of intersecting with humans: a nightmare come to life, life-ending technology and resisting technology. Instead of writing about fantastic, futuristic scenarios, Bradbury creates world and characters that the reader can imagine living in and relating to – which makes their stories so scary. In The Veldt, the story is about the family’s relationship with each other and the way technology interferes with these relationships. For example, George and Lydia Hadley and their two children, Wendy and Peter, are all crippled by technology; they don’t function on their own any more. George and Lydia bought an expensive house that cooks, cleans and even ties their...

...Rome and the Murderer “Bonnie and George Pennys died Saturday afternoon in their home in Ohio. The couple was shot through a window in their living room and died instantly. Rome Pennys, their daughter, refused to comment.” “Yes Ro.” Bonnie said, looking at her daughter. “Thanks mom,” Rome said enthusiastically, “you’re the best!” Bonnie turned away to her basket of clothes and continues to fold her family’s laundry when suddenly, she dropped. As Rome turned to look at her mother, George’s lifeless body tumbled down the stairs. They both were shot and died, little did Rome know. Rome dipped behind the island cabinets, as an act of protection. She dialed 911 and two cop cars were there before she knew it. Later that...

...Fallon Perez Psychological Theories Often times when discussing murders, people say the killer “just snapped.” In many instances, there is a downward spiral of mental and emotional damage. The killers leave behind warning signs and clues. To grasp more of an understanding of these signs and clues, one should research four main case categories: mothers who kill their children, children who kill their parents, mass murders, and serial killers. To gain better insight to these psychological theories behind homicides, this paper highlights individual cases in each category mentioned above. One of the categories to look at is mothers who kill their children. For this particular case, a prime example would be the Andrea Yates Murders. Andrea Yates was a former Texas resident, who drowned and murdered her five children on June 20, 2001. Andrea waited for her husband to leave early Wednesday morning to fill a bathtub where she would drown her five children. She began by killing the three middle children, “drowning them face first in the tub, then proceeding to put them in their beds and cover them with the sheets” (Ramsland). Then she went on to kill the six-month-old baby. Once the baby was dead, she left him floating in the tub. When she called her eldest son to the bathroom, he immediately realized the danger he was in and ran. “Andrea chased and dragged him to the tub” (Ramsland). She then struggled with drowning him, but eventually was successful but not before he could...

...I am here today to interview a murderer. He has been convicted with the crime for killing the old man that used to live in this very house. The cops who were here and discovered the body claim that it is possible that he has insane tendencies that could have contributed to his crime. I am here to interview the murderer and see if this is the case. The man has said that it was not the old man who provoked him. He claims that it was instead the old man’s eye. As he talks through his story he continues to call it the “Raven Eye” or the “Evil Eye”. He tells me how he gets infuriated at just the sight of the eye. This leads me to believe that the sheriffs were right about him. Maybe he was too far of the edge of insanity to be convicted. But I let him continue with his story. He is now telling me about how he used to creep inside the old man’s room at night. He explains this in great detail. He says that every night at midnight, he would sneak into the room and sit there, waiting to kill the old man. However, the old man would always be sleeping. His eye would be shut, so, the murderer would never do...

...Reactive murderers are more emotional and unregulated than proactive murderers. Proactive murderers are classified as predatory in that they tend to plan out their violent acts. Brain scans indicate that reactive murderers show less activity in their prefrontal cortex which is the reasoning center of the brain and controls executive functioning of the brain such as problem-solving, planning and self-control. Brain scans of proactive murderers show an increase in the functioning of the prefrontal cortex that allows for the skillful lying and manipulation in their actions. Proactive murderers also possess greater language skills and have “more than a 22% increase in white matter in prefrontal cortex (synaptic connections)”. (Murderous Brains)...

...Aaron Lightsey Dr. Riggs History 1013 9 April 2012 From the Middle Class to Murderers Throughout the course of human history there have always been senseless acts of atrocities committed for one reason or another, whether it was the massacre of the Armenian Christians during and after World War I by the Ottoman Empire or the murders of some twenty million people by Joseph Stalin in Russia. It seems that mankind has a natural knack for the killing of each other. Evidence of this can be seen in some of the greatest technological advancements that have originally stemmed from inventions meant for devastation. What causes these acts of violence towards one another? History indicates that these actions may be caused by a sense of religious justification, economic factors, or aspirations for strengthening of an empire. However there can be more reasons than those of a political or religious nature. In many ways personal bias, environmental and psychological factors play heavily into some of the worst atrocities ever envisioned by mankind. This is the case argued in Christopher R. Browning’s book Ordinary Men. Christopher Browning’s book focuses on a key part of World War II that took place behind the scenes of the war, The Holocaust. The Holocaust led to the systematic death of millions of people. These innocent people were only guilty of being labeled as “undesirable” by a supposedly “superior race.” These people consisted of not only Jewish people, who were the majority,...

...Brian Stoller Ms. Baker ENG1322-04 4 February 2013 A Murderer by any other name…. During my stay on the fabulous the Fort Hood Military Reservation I had the distinct pleasure to deploy with the 1st Cavalry Division to the desert paradise that is Iraq. I spent the majority of 2009 in the war-torn wasteland and was lucky enough to get my two week vacation near the end of October. While on vacation in the Chicago land area, I received a strange phone call from my boss. He asked me if I was on Fort Hood right now. Thinking it was a strange question, I said “no I’m not, why?” he said turn on CNN and he had to go and abruptly hung the phone up. Thinking how odd the whole thing was I turned on the TV and was shocked at what I was looking at. It was near real time coverage of a mass shooting on Fort Hood. Initial reports were sketchy but what they knew was that there were many dead and/or wounded, and the shooter was in uniform. Later it was revealed that the shooter was an Army psychologist by the name of MAJ Nadal Hassan, that he may or may not have acted alone, and he was a terrorist. This is a term in the US which is attached with a particular gravity, and extreme recourse, for terrorist are not mere criminals, but enemies of the state. There are a number of constitutional powers that are weapons against such an adversary. But is MAJ Nidal Hassan truly a terrorist, or is this just a workplace shooting? As the almighty political media spin machines power up, they were quick...

...Kyle Schultz Topics in Literature I Professor Murdock 25 April 2012 Narrative Modes Within Perfume: The Story of a Murderer In his novel Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, Patrick Süskind chooses third person narration to tell the story of Jean-Baptiste Grenouille. And though Grenouille is the character at which the story is based upon, we are also taken through the minds and actions of other characters through the unlimited knowledge of an omniscient narrative voice. By seeing and smelling the world through Grenouille’s eyes and nose while at the same time having it told through several characters instead of him alone, we are somewhat left detached from Grenouille from the very beginning, which only enhances the lack of sympathy and makes one’s feeling of horror towards him even more extreme. In other words, by choosing an omniscient third person narrative mode, Süskind’s main goal was to purposefully leave a distance between the reader and main character. Though there are many other reasons for choosing a third person point of view and an omniscient voice to narrate a story like this, nothing is more important than distancing the audience from a character if that character is meant to be evil. This (for the most part) avoids sympathy towards the character and allows readers to see who he is from the outside as well as the inside. Even reading the first line of the novel, “there lived a man who was one of the most gifted and abominable personages” (3: Ch. 1), we are given...

...Problem A pesticide is defined as “a chemical preparation for destroying plant, fungal, or animal pests” (Random House Dictionary). Pesticides have been used for thousands of years, but only recently has it been used in vast amounts to ‘protect’ plants in order to feed the ever-growing population of the world. in order to identify the effects of industrial amounts of pesticides on surrounding inhabitants including but not limited to humans, cattle, domestic pets, etc,. The EPA is responsible for the safety of humans and the environment by creating laws and regulations. Discussion Pesticide use is regulated by the EPA, whose sole purpose is to “...ensure that all Americans are protected from significant risks to human health and the environment where they live, learn and work...” (Environmental Protection Agency). Pesticide use has plenty of benefits such as less crop loss due to pests and/or disease, and because less crops are lost, more money is saved, even though pesticides are purchased, they are relatively cheap and do not negate the total savings. On the other hand, there is a plethora of reasons that pesticide use is heinous, and harmful to all those involved from the person whose job it is is to administer the chemicals to the cat that ate the poisoned mouse. Many different problems have been associated with pesticide use. Scientists have executed tests on various food goods, water, and environments throughout the United States and have identified multiple chemicals...

...| World Literature Assignment 1 | The Relationship Between the Corporeal Body and the Spirit In the Context of the Novels “Perfume: The Story Of A Murderer” and “Hunger” | | | | | Subject: English A1 Higher Level Session: May 2010 Word Count: 1500 The constitution of the human being is often classified into two parts: the body and the mind or soul. Whereas these two aspects of the being, supernatural and physical, are often considered two inseparable parts of a whole, they are regarded, rather, as distinct features in both the novels, Perfume and Hunger, that work together in order to form the complete individual. However, though the particular relationships between the individual’s corporeal body and the metaphysical mind or soul in these two novels are portrayed similarly in a number of aspects, they are not without their unique attributes. A distinct correlation between the portrayal of the body and the state of the individual’s internal being is seen to be present in the context of both texts. Grenouille, in the novel Perfume, is described, even from infancy, as having “…eyes…of an uncertain color, covered with a kind of slimy film…” (Suskind 16) and a nose “…like the cups of…[a]…small meat-eating plant…” (Suskind 17) It can be seen here that his abnormal and parasitic tendencies have been reflected in his physical appearance, as it is throughout the book. Because...

...Letter to a Philosopher Elbert Avery PHI/105 Nov, 06, 2013 Letter to a Philosopher I am writing this letter to John Dewey regarding his theory of pragmatism. I am choosing this theory because it interests me in the scientific aspect of your thinking. I know that you chose to challenge logicians to answer the question of truth. This is a hard thing to sort out and make real and true. Going up against some of the times most logical thinkers and challenging them to come up with true answers was one of your strong points. I know that you were not totally opposed to modern logic as you have stated “logic based upon the idea that qualitative objects are existential in the fullest sense. To retain logical principles based on this conception along with the acceptance of theories of existence and knowledge based on an opposite conception is not, to say the least, conductive to clearness – a consideration that has a good deal to do with existing dualism between traditional and the newer relational logics.”(Qualitative Thought 1930) This statement to me means that you had maybe exhausted the traditional way of thinking that you had imagined. I believe that you had to reach for more answers and different ways to get those answers. Truth is a hard thing to come by and it is not easily obtained. I know that you were a philosopher of science and that you used this to try and understand the world. From you research you did not stretch the truth but rather examined all of the parts that...
