He found that the "more exalted characters" (the aristocrats of Athens) are subservient to the interests of those beneath them. In other words, the lower-class characters play larger roles than their betters and overshadow them. He found this to be a grave error of the writer.

ellauri171.html on line 999: The striking fact is that the woman is blamed and is punished by being made subservient to the man. In relation to the woman, the man becomes the agent of God.
ellauri220.html on line 104: The major image in the poem is the ferry. It symbolizes continual movement, backward and forward, a universal piston like motion in space and time. The ferry moves on, from a point of land, through water, to another point of land. Land and water thus form part of the symbolistic pattern of the poem. Land symbolizes the physical; water symbolizes the spiritual. The circular flow from the physical to the spiritual connotes the dual nature of the universe. Dualism, in philosophy, means that the world is ultimately composed of, or explicable in terms of, two basic entities, such as mind and matter, yin and yang. From a moral point of view, it means that there are two mutually antagonistic principles in the universe — dick and cunt, good and evil. In Whitman's view, both the mind and the spirit are realities and matter is only a means which enables man to realize this truth. His world is dominated by a sense of good, and evil has a very subservient place in it. Man, in Whitman's world, while overcoming the duality of the universe, desires fusion with the sheboy. In this attempt, man tries to transcend the boundaries of space and time, never letting off that dear piston like movement, in and out, in and out.
ellauri483.html on line 611: Yes, Satan plays a role in Judaism, but it is fundamentally different from the Christian concept of a fallen angel or devil. In Judaism, Satan is viewed as a loyal agent subservient to God, acting as a heavenly prosecutor or tester (tempter) who tempts human beings to sin and then reports their transgressions. The term satan is usually translated as "adversary," "accuser," or "hinderer" rather than a proper noun for a malicious being. Satan is not an independent entity fighting against God but functions as a spiritual force used by God to test human freedom of choice. Satan cannot act without God's permission. He has no choice like reluctant criminals in anglo saxon tv series. So whatever bad comes from Satan is God's doing. In Jewish tradition, Satan is often considered a metaphor for the yetzer hara (the evil inclination), the sinful impulse inherent within humans rather than an external entity. Satan mainly plays a role in the book of Job, where he acts as an accuser, challenging Job’s loyalty to God. Judaism rejects the notion of dualism (good vs. evil as equals), maintaining that all power, good or bad, comes from God. He is no friend of yours, he is the boss.
