Abstract
Examines how these novels' isolated protagonists are used to critique their indifferent societies. Public space in fiction serves as a means of identifying aspects of the characters of the people who inhabit those spaces.

From the Paper
"Public space in fiction serves as a means of identifying aspects of the characters of the people who inhabit those spaces. The characters in Notes from Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky, L'Assommoir by Emile Zola, and Last Nights of Paris by Philippe Soupault also illustrate multiple social meanings and serve as a means for the authors to criticize their own society.

The theory of human nature and the meaning of life that is offered by the Underground Man in Notes from Underground derives from his personality and his particular experiences in the world. Those experience have left him angry and spiteful, and in part his "theory" of human nature is a spiteful reaction to the way he himself has been treated. He seems obsessed with developing this theory, as if he will be able to codify all human conduct and explain it by means of his view of why people behave in a certain ..."

"By depicting the life of Hsiang Tzu in vivid detail and the many characters who cross his path in Rickshaw, Lao She captures the moral decadence of the Chinese people. According to Lao She, the "Individualism" of the Chinese results in their failure to unite and commit to a national cause (James viii-ix). Hsiang Tzu, the protagonist of this book, is driven by his selfish pursuits. Believing that owning a rickshaw is the key to his financial security, he steals customers from other rickshaw pullers and leads a secluded existence except when he craves sympathy for his misfortunes. Yet Hsiang Tzu is not the only selfish character. In fact, he is frequently the victim of individuals who are even more despicable."

Abstract
For being one of the most famous modern poets, the author finds it is strange that Philip Larkin lived such a reclusive and mysterious life. This paper deals with how his work, especially the "High Windows" compilation, reflected his strange lifestyle and outlook.

From the Paper
"Philip Larkin stands as one of the greatest in twentieth century British artistry. His manipulation and control of words is some of the most masterful to have come out of his homeland. He was a quiet and self-embittered man who overcompensated his insecurity with a boastful and egotistical persona towards his audience. Timidity, anxiousness, and misunderstanding shrouded most of his adult life; the theme chokes at the heart of most of his writings. Confusion, seclusion, and what is seemingly feigned indifference, comprise the backdrop on which he paints his words."

Abstract
This paper examines the history of the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution and how it has evolved inside the judicial system into the right to preventive healthcare within the prison setting. The author studies diseases such as viral hepatitis and how the justice system has dealt with this disease. This paper discusses human papillomavirus (HPV) and how it can be compared to viral hepatitis types B and C. The author concludes that the standard of deliberate indifference to health care needs in women's prisons requires the United State's justice system to immunize women prisoners to prevent the spread of HPV and cervical cancer. The paper argues that it is now the obligation of the Federal Bureau of Prisons to add to the "Clinical Practice Guidelines" a requirement for mandatory testing for HPV and for immunization with Gardasil for those who are at high risk of HPV.

Conclusion

From the Paper
"In "Ruiz v. Johnson", a group of inmates had sued the Director of the Texas Department of Corrections. The plaintiffs alleged that conditions in the correctional facilities violated Eight Amendment protections. Conditions were so extreme that the United States joined in as a plaintiff, against the defendant's resistance. The case includes commentary from Dr. Robertson, an expert in the trial. He stated that he saw two cases of "potentially preventable" cancers where the patients received delay in diagnosis and treatment, causing a negative prognosis. The defendants argued that the National Commission on Correctional Health Care (NCCHC) accredited them and therefore their practices were constitutional."

Abstract
This paper examines an 1996 article in "Christianity Today" about volunteering in Robert Wuthnow's book "Learning to Care: Elementary Kindness in an Age of Indifference". The paper explains that the author questions whether the "mild morality" found in present-day volunteers is what society really needs. The paper looks at how, according to Wuthnow, the type of volunteering needed in the present society is different than that of past generations. The paper also points out that a milder type of volunteerism is necessary in a society like the one that exists today, which is so complex, but during the pioneer days for example, individuals needed be strong and virtuous, because they lived in such a lawless and unprotected world. The paper concludes that the churches' clergy and educators need to show the youth of today what heroes are doing.

From the Paper
"Wuthnow argues that this milder type of volunteerism is necessary in a society like the one that exists today, which is so complex. To the contrary, during pioneer days for example, individuals needed be strong and virtuous, because they lived in such a lawless and unprotected world. "Temperance and prudence took the place of factory schedules and insurance schemes." Now, however, people can be "relatively weak" in their volunteering efforts, due to the strength of the government and business institutions."

Abstract
This paper is a research proposal designed to examine differences in junior high school students' anxiety levels as a function of differences in two subtypes of permissive parenting.These suttpes have been identified as permissive-indifferent style, and permissive-indulgent style.

From the Paper
"The purpose of this paper is to examine for differences in junior high school students' anxiety levels for an association with two subtypes of permissive parenting: permissive-indifferent style and permissive-indulgent style. Based on research indicating that the mental health of children can vary with parenting style and Generalized Anxiety Disorder GAD in children and adolescents is associated with aloof, rejecting and uninvolved parenting, the following hypothesis was formulated. Research Hypothesis: Parents who are..."

Abstract
George Bernard Shaw's play, "Mrs. Warren's Profession" is a comment on social hypocrisy, portrayed through the characters' struggles with contradictory social positions and moral conflicts. Vivie, Mrs. Warren's daughter, is expected to be indifferent towards the conflicts of morality, as she was raised to be a 'proper lady;' however, Vivie reveals herself to be cool, calculating and contemptuous of the pretences that are associated with the hypocrisy of being a 'proper lady'.

Abstract
This paper examines how both Bierce's short story and Auden's poem imply that humankind is cruel at best, indifferent at worst. However, the author discovers how these pieces also differ from each other in many ways. This essay distinguishes between the way in which Bierce sees death as a 'dignitary' who must be met with certain rituals as compared to Auden who sees death as haphazard, accidental, occurring without ritual or even much notice.

From the Paper
"Bierce and Auden seem to take a similar dim view of human nature. In the early paragraphs of "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge," Bierce shows the condemned Farquhar to be a loving husband and father. ("He closed his eyes in order to fix his last thoughts upon his wife and children.") Bierce also describes Farquhar as having a "kindly expression." However, this does nothing to soften the hearts of his captors. "The liberal military code makes provision for hanging many kinds of persons, and gentlemen are not excluded," Bierce tells the reader. Not only are the officers committed to hanging Farquhar, they make every possible effort to kill him following his "escape."

Abstract
Walker Alexander Percy, born in 1916 in Alabama, was a typical southern writer whose novels always had an undertone of the social problems. The paper shows how Walker's novels "The Moviegoer" and the "Lancelot", both reflect the author's concern for the degenerated condition of society. Both these novels discuss the problems that man has to confront under the prevailing social structure, marked by a sheer lack of morality. The paper shows that the main context of the novels seems to be the imbalance either created by the indifferent and erratic behavior of the society, as is the case in "Lancelot" or the imbalance in the perception of the Protagonist as in "The Moviegoer". The essential theme of both these novels revolves around the discussion of the effects of this imbalance upon the protagonists (Binx and Lancelot) and their struggle with it. The paper analyzes the plots of the two novels and then looks at the common themes as well as the differences in them.

From the Paper
"Both the "The Moviegoer" and the "Lancelot" are excellent novels that neatly depict the effects of degenerating social values in American life. Both these novels have some sort of a common trait in them in that they discuss the circumstances that create a new awareness, a sort of awakening in the characters. Towards the very end of the novel a new consciousness ensues. The protagonists of both the novels awaken from the slumber of depression and their deranged personalities are beginning to clear out. Of particular significance is the role that women play in both these novels. Towards the very end of the novel Walker reconstitutes the protagonists "Binx" and "Lancelot Lamar" who were for the most part of the story submerged in their narcissistic delusions. The role that women play in this revival is significant as both Binx and Lancelot are revived from the depth of their solitude and estranged behavior back to normalcy by the two women characters "Kate" and " Anna" and interestingly enough both of them have their own psycho analytical complexities."
