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 looks into the use of imagery in "Over Here", a short story by Canadian writer Jack Hodgins, and shows how in this story, Hodgins was particularly concerned with ethnical and national stereotypes present in the modern society. The paper asserts that this topic is of special significance for Canada due to the rich ethnical background of its citizens. Thus, this essay concentrates on the imagery used to depict the stereotypes the white population exhibits towards the Native Peoples or, as Hodgins calls them, Indians. The paper argues that the writer used the imagery to paint a strong picture of the stereotypes as well as the emotions provoked by the idea of 'Indians'.

The paper states that the book also offers insight into the attitudes and behavior of a society.
From the Paper
"To say that Jack Kerouac's novel "On the Road" is autobiographical is a little like saying that Rembrandt did self-portraits once in a while. In a way that relatively few fictional treatments of one's current experience of life have managed, "On the Road" functions ..."

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."

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."
