After Dorian wishes for beauty and youth he gets his wish and follows a life of pleasure and sin that Wotton encourages. Each day he remains beautiful while the portrait ages and his sins show up on picture.After the love of his life dies and he commits many murders he realizes the problem with beauty is that he will never be happy. So he tries to kill himself with a knife but can't so he stabs the picture leading to his death.When he dies all the sin and how he ages transfers back to his body making the portrait beautiful again like when it was first painted.]]> 2018-10-18 20:00:29 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/294595639 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296239606 Like Dr. Faustus, each of the men desired things they couldn't have. Because of their desperation they were both willing to sell their soul  to the devil for beauty and knowledge.  This was their downfall leading them to have unhappy lives when they realize that they truly aren't happy for what they wished for. Each man had a little helper to commit the evil deeds that they committed like Lord Wotton and Mesphist who encourage the sin that the men did that helped them realized how unhappy they were with their lives before they arrived.]]> 2018-10-24 00:39:37 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296239606 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296243681 This clip shows the ending to Dorian Gray, you can see the sin and age transfer from the portrait to him.]]> 2018-10-24 01:00:06 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296243681 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296244777 Dr. Faustus was unhappy with the amount of knowledge he did know because he wished to know more. So he turned to the devil to get more knowledge. His request was answered by the devil by sending him a demon named Mephistophilis. He learns information from the Mesphist and enjoys his powers that he has. He uses it to impress the higher  up people in society for enjoyment until his time comes. Many times he thought of repenting to save his soul but he didn't so that's why he wished to God to save his life so that he would only be forced to live 1000 years in hell instead of all of eternity.  ]]> 2018-10-24 01:05:15 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296244777 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296651239 2018-10-24 19:16:04 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296651239 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296657156 "These metaphysics of magicians, And necromantic books are heavenly; Lines, circle, scenes,20 letters, and characters; Ay, these are those that Faustus most desire"(Marlowe 1).

"But ruminates on nercomantic skill. Philosophy is odious and obscure; Both law and physic are for petty wits; Divinity is basest of the three, Unpleasant, harsh, contemptible, and vile: 'Tis magic, magic, that hath ravish'd me"(Marlowe 2). 

"Now would I have a book where  I might see all characters and planets of the heaven, that I might know their motions and dispositions" (Marlowe 8).

"But such spirits as can lively resemble Alexander and his paramour shall appear before grace, in that manner that they both lived in, in their most flourishing estate, which I doubt not shall sufficiently content your imperial majesty"(Marlowe 14).]]> 2018-10-24 19:28:31 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/296657156 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297120709 "How sad it is!

If it were only the other way.If it were I who was to be always young, and the picture that was to grow old! For that-- For that -- I would give everything! Yes, there is nothing in the  whole world I would not give! I would give my soul for that"( Wilde 2).

"Hour by hour ,and week by week, the thing upon the canvas was growing old. It might escape the hideousness of sin, but the hideousness of age was in store for it"( Wilde 10).]]> 2018-10-25 18:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297120709 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297121434 Tom and Dorian were both very similar stories for selling their souls to the devil. They each wished for a better life than they had letting themselves get tricked by the devil to get the dream life they both wanted. Life was good until they realized that their time had come whether it be from stabbing a portrait or getting taken on a horse that they learn how terrible the deal was that they made with their soul.]]> 2018-10-25 18:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297121434 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297121738 Both men in this case were greedy for the knowledge and money but hated their consequences. Tom knew that he had some boundaries that couldn't be pushed for the money, but his soul wasn't one of them. He tried to become a good man by going to church but that didn't save him since he still choose to do the devil working for the money he desired. Faustus also thought that repenting would be the best choice but he made the deal and couldn't go back so he asked God to let him be there for 1000 years instead of eternity in hell. They knew the consequences of the their actions and thought they could get escape the bargain they made. ut they learned that it would have been better to never sell their soul in the first place. ]]> 2018-10-25 18:28:00 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297121738 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297122199 The story about the devil and Tom Walker is about greed. Tom walks in the swamp and meets the devil  who talks about pirate treasure that he has. After the talk, he goes home to his wife who suggest he does the devil bidding to get the wealth that would make them happy in life. Because of his refusal she goes after the devil with all their belongs to see if she can  make the deal and keep all the wealth to herself. This leads to her death and Tom decision to make a deal to get the treasure. Later on after making the deal he realizes his mistake and tries to find a loop hole by becoming a strict religious man. This doesn't save him for when the devil comes for him. If he wasn't greedy he would still be alive.]]> 2018-10-25 18:28:44 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297122199 phillmel000 https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297166074 "He even felt something like gratitude towards towards the black woodsmen, who, he considered, had done him a kindness"(Irving 3).

"Having secured the good things of this world, he began to feel anxious about those of the next. He thought with regret of the bargain he had made with his black friend, and set his wits to work to cheat him out of his conditions"(Irving 4).

"In place of gold and silver, his iron chest was filled with chips and shavings; two skeletons lay in his stable instead of his half-starved horses, and the very next day his great house  took fire and was burned to the ground"( Irving 5).]]> 2018-10-25 20:10:05 UTC https://padlet.com/phillmel000/r8pq8nnzwmof/wish/297166074
