Conclusion
From the Paper "There has long been a great deal of speculation about the motive behind these acts. The book The Complete History of Jack the Ripper asserts that the contemporaries of this killer had a difficult time understanding the motive behind such heinous crimes. Some have speculated that the killer was influenced by the occult (Sugden). The author asserts that other contemporaries believed that the murder was somehow influenced by the stresses of the modern age (Sugden). The author also explains that there was a belief that if the killer was caught he should be studied, so that officials could garner a greater understanding of what caused him to commit these murders (Sugden). The author explains "can we not, before handing him over to the executioner or the authorities and Broadmoor, make a really decent effort to discover his antecedents, and his parentage, to trace back every step f his career, every hereditary instinct, every acquired taste, every moral slip, every mental idiosyncrasy (Sugden).""
Abstract The paper examines the criminal investigation of Jack the Ripper. It is necessary to examine the conduct of Scotland Yard as it pursued this case, for doing so will reveal the challenges the investigators faced and establish the reasons why they failed to identify and arrest him. The paper shows that the issues involved have been mired in controversy for more than a century, for there has been speculation that Scotland Yard discovered the identity of Jack the Ripper, concealed who he was, and didn't apprehend him because of political pressure from people in the government or the royal family.
From the Paper "In focusing on the criminal investigation of Jack the Ripper, it is necessary to examine the conduct of Scotland Yard as it pursued this case, for doing so will reveal the challenges the investigators faced."
Abstract This paper is a step by step account of the murders committed by Jack the Ripper in the late 1800s. The author takes us through each one chronologically including a detailed look at the most cruel and ruthless murder, the fifth and final one.
From the Paper "Jack the Ripper terrorized the East End of London with his heinous acts of senseless violence in the Nineteenth century. The perpetrator who committed these malicious murders in which the victim's body was viciously mutilated is under speculation. By analyzing each murder, acknowledging the characteristics of the murderer, and providing a scenario, which links Prince Eddy to the murders, it establishes that he is a likely suspect to be Jack the Ripper."

It cites differences in the film version of killing prostitutes to the real-life evidence. The author compares and contrasts the film and documentary evidence as to the anatomical knowledge of the killer.

Abstract This essay compares Charles Dickens? "Great Expectations" with Peter Carey's ?Jack Maggs.? The author examines how the portrayal of the convict characters Abel Magwitch and Jack Maggs are compared and contrasted, revealing astonishing similarities between the two characters, despite the different backgrounds of their authors.
From the Paper:
"Peter Carey's novel, "Jack Maggs", and Charles Dicken's "Great Expectations" whilst built on the same story line, were written by two authors from different countries and different times. It would therefore not be amiss for a reader to assume that their respective portrayals of a convict, who earns his wealth in New South Wales and sponsors a London street urchin to gentlemanly status, would differ markedly. This assumption, however, is quickly contradicted upon comparison of the two texts. Both Dickens and Carey, despite their different backgrounds, portray their respective convict characters, Able Magwitch and Jack Maggs, with great empathy."

Abstract This paper presents a detailed psychological examination of the story of Jack the Ripper. The actions of Jack the Ripper would pale in comparison to some of the more modern serial killers but the tale of Jack the Ripper lives on as one of the most historical cases the world has experienced. The writer delves into why this is true as well as the psychological aspects of the case.
From the Paper "One of the most compelling issues in the case of Jack the ripper from 1888 is the fact that it has never been solved. The person who committed the murders of five prostitutes vanished as easily as he killed, without a trace. One of the reasons that the case became as famous as it did and still holds the fascination of so many legal experts is because it was one of the first modern cases of serial killing. There had been murders in the past, where domestic squabbles ended in violence or because the involved parties felt they had been wronged by the victim, but serial killers were not a common occurrence."

From the Paper "Jack Hyles encouraged others to go into the field of ministry if they felt God was leading them to do so. He published books explaining what he felt were the best ways to reach a congregation. His literature describes how to prepare for a sermon, what manner to keep while preaching, and the importance of understanding the congregation. Hyles suggested simplicity when outlining a sermon as he felt an outline that is too detailed would give listeners too much to remember. He also described how he often would make up songs to keep the truth of the message from his upcoming sermon in his mind. When delivering his message, Hyles often included words, superlatives, experiences, names, places, and rituals that warmed his heart to keep himself in the right manner of delivery. He always made sure to be careful with his eyes, the use of his hands, manner of dress, facial expressions, and pulpit behavior to ensure he was delivering in a manner appropriate to earn his congregation's trust. His concentration seemed to pay off, as his manner of preaching was described as "exciting and practical." This manner affected people so much that after a sermon one day, a custodian came to him in tears to let him know how much he reminded him of his old preacher."
Abstract In this article, the writer introduces, discusses and analyzes the novel 'Jack Maggs' by Peter Carey. Specifically, the writer discusses and interprets three major aspects of the novel: crime in the 19th century, class in London in the early 19th century and women and their roles in this place and time. The writer explains that 'Jack Maggs' is a historical novel in the tradition of Charles Dickens. The writer discusses that many critics compare this novel to Dickens' "Great Expectations", with Maggs taking on the Dickens' character of Magwitch. The writer maintains that the story is as much a tale of London and her history as it is a retelling of Dickens' work and even his own life. The writer concludes that 'Jack Maggs' is a compelling book that leaves the reader with a deeper understanding of the inner workings of London in Victorian times.
From the Paper "Victorian England, the period for this richly detailed novel, was a time of great growth and change in society. The Industrial Revolution, with its machinery and mass production was underway, and British cities were filling up with thousands of people looking for work in the factories. Living conditions for the lower classes were deplorable at best. The London setting of this novel makes that quite clear. It shows London as vibrant and alive, but also dirty, smelly, and incredibly crowded. It was also a city filled with crime, poverty, and desperation.
It is not surprising that author Tobias Oates is obsessed with crime and criminology. He lived in a city where crime was rampant."
Abstract This paper describe the beat generation, a close group of American writers of the 1950s of whom Jack Kerouac is associated. This group rejected materialism and consumer society and put forth a new set of values. The paper relates that Jack Kerouac in his 1957 novel "On the Road" speaks about this dissatisfaction with contemporary society by presenting a moral and psychological portrait . The paper also points out that Kerouac uses the stream of consciousness technique to recreate his and his friends' deeply philosophical and spiritual cross-country road trips across America. The paper highlights the two main characters of the novel, Sal Paradise and Dean Moriarty, who in reality are Jack Kerouac and his closest friend Neal Cassady.
From the Paper "The Beats were intellectuals, writers who experimented with Zen Buddhism and drugs; the spiritually enlightening experiences that came as a result of the experimentation are described in the novel by characters such as Carlo Marx - real life Beat icon, Allen Ginsberg - and Dean Moriarty. What is interesting to mention here is that Sal Paradise, the main character and narrator of the novel, does not participate in his friends' experiments with Benzedrine. Moreover, he expresses his reluctance as to the possibility of finding one's soul i.e. what the other members of his entourage were looking for."

"Though it is not the only work of his art, On the Road, for better or worse, has become Kerouac's most famous novel. This book has performed as a means to meet the desires for a number of other people who feel to be having a restless and curious soul. The book itself initiated a cultural revolution, hence diverting about millions of people on new ideological channels. At the same time it arched Kerouac to a fame that he was never expecting and for which his calm, sacred soul was not prepared to deal with."

Abstract This paper discusses evidence and details of the court trial against James Maybrick. The author draws particular attention to the "The Diary of Jack the Ripper", a diary that reveals to the world the identity, motive and method of the infamous killer known as Jack the Ripper.
From the Paper ?The crowded courtroom fell silent as the attorney for the defense approached the panel of jurors and prepared to deliver his closing argument. The hushed silence seemed to hang suspended in the heavy atmosphere of anticipation as he reached the front of the courtroom and turned to face the jurors. The tension in the air intensified as he paused momentarily to gather his thoughts before delivering the final climatic words that would mark both his final plea for a verdict of innocent and the end of a long and somewhat bizarre trial. The verdict of innocent for which he argued would not determine the fate of the defendant, for James Maybrick had gone to his grave over a century before the evidence identifying him as London's elusive East End killer known as Jack the Ripper came to light.?
