In "Wuthering Heights" we are introduced to a story in which power when misused creates suffering even for those we love.

This theme is represented through the character Heathcliff. At the beginning of the book, Heathcliff has no power in the society in which he lives, which makes him a victim of the most varied abuses, besides being prevented from having what he wants. However, the hurt and the will to take revenge causes Heathcliff to seek power above all the people who have harmed him.

When Heathcliff gains power and control against the entire family that mistreated him, he spares no effort in mistreating them back, pursuing his descendants and causing suffering to everyone, including his beloved Catherine, causing her death.

This narrative shows that obtaining power is not beneficial if the individual does not know how to use it progressively for good. That's because even reaching his revenge and having the power he never had, Heathcliff lives in an unhappy and empty way.

Analyze Lowell’s use of symbolism in the poem “For the Union Dead.” Explain how Lowell’s use of symbolism helps to develop one o
murzikaleks [220]

monument to the heroic ideals of New England life, which are jeopardized in the present just as the statue itself is shaken by urban renewal.Images of black children entering segregated schools reveal how the ideals for which Shaw and his men died were neglected after the Civil War. The poem’s final stanzas return to the aquarium. The poet pictures Shaw riding on a fish’s air bubble, breaking free to the surface, but in fact, the aquarium is abandoned and the only fish are fin-tailed cars.This poem is a brilliant example of Lowell’s ability to link private turmoil to public disturbances. The loss of childhood in the early section of the poem expands to the loss of America’s early ideals, and both are brought together in the last lines to give the poem a public and private intensity.The poem is organized into unrhymed quatrains of uneven length, allowing a measure of flexibility within a formal structure.
