Read the excerpt from Poe’s "The Fall of the House of Usher." I dared not -- oh, pity me, miserable wretch that I am! -- I dared

not -- I dared not speak! We have put her living in the tomb! Said I not that my senses were acute? I now tell you that I heard her first feeble movements in the hollow coffin. I heard them -- many, many days ago -- yet I dare not -- I dared not speak! What is the effect of parallelism in this excerpt?

In this excerpt, parallelism emphasizes Usher's sense of terror. His repetitions of "I dared not" show his deeply distressed state of mind, whereas the parallel use of simple perfect tense in an interrogative sentence ("said I not") adds to the completely disoriented senses, as Usher can't tell the truth from the troublesome fiction of his own mind.

How is the theme of individuality vs. conformity reflected in the novel of the outsiders?
evablogger [386]

PonyBoy, Dally and Johnny are at the drive in and talking to Cherry. Pony Boy and Johnny don't like the way Dally is talking to Cherry, but they don't really say anything. Cherry's pretty tough on her own and stands up to Dally, but I always thought that scene showed how Johnny and PonyBoy were both pressured to conform to that "tough" behavior.  It's been awhile since I read the book, but I recall that there was a conversation between, I think, PonyBoy and Bob. It was PonyBoy and a Soc at any rate. I also thought it showed conformity by showing how vastly different the Soc was without his friends around. When you get one of either gang alone, they're nothing like the gang as a whole. So it highlights both the individual and the conformity
