Peter is mainly an exaggerated stereotype of a boastful <strong>and</strong> careless boy. He is quick to<br />

point out how great he is. Peter has a nonchalant, devil-may-care attitude, <strong>and</strong> is fearlessly<br />

cocky when it comes to putting himself in danger. Barrie writes that when Peter thought he<br />

was going to die on Marooner's Rock, he felt scared, yet he felt only one shudder run<br />

through him when any other person would've felt scared up until death. With his blissful<br />

unawareness of the tragedy of death, he says, "To die will be an awfully big adventure".<br />

Peter's archetypal ability is his refusal to grow up. Barrie did not explain how he was able to<br />

do this, leaving the implication that it was by an act of will.<br />

Peter is a skilled swordsman, with the skill to rival even Captain Hook, whose h<strong>and</strong> he cut off<br />

in a duel. He has remarkably keen vision <strong>and</strong> hearing. Peter Pan is said to be able to do<br />

almost anything. Peter has an effect on the whole of Neverl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> its inhabitants when he<br />

is there. Barrie states that the isl<strong>and</strong> wakes up when he returns from his trip to London.<br />

Peter is the leader of the Lost Boys, a b<strong>and</strong> of boys who were lost by their parents, <strong>and</strong><br />

came to live in Neverl<strong>and</strong>. He is friends with Tinker Bell, a common fairy who is often<br />

jealously protective of him."<br />

49 "...<strong>The</strong> Legend of Sleepy Hollow... "<br />

"A short story by Washington Irving contained in his collection <strong>The</strong> Sketch Book of Geoffrey<br />

Crayon, Gent., written while he was living in Birmingham, Engl<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> first published in<br />

1820. With Irving's companion piece "Rip Van Winkle", "<strong>The</strong> Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is<br />

among the earliest American fiction still read today.<br />

<strong>The</strong> story is set circa 1790 in the Dutch settlement of Tarry Town, New York, in a secluded<br />

glen called Sleepy Hollow. It tells the story of Ichabod Crane, a lanky schoolmaster from<br />

Connecticut, who competes with Abraham "Brom Bones" Van Brunt, the town rowdy, for the<br />

h<strong>and</strong> of 18-year-old Katrina Van Tassel, only daughter of a wealthy farmer. As Crane leaves<br />

a party at the Van Tassel home on an autumn night, he is pursued by the Headless<br />

Horseman, supposedly the ghost of a Hessian trooper who lost his head to a cannonball<br />

during "some nameless battle" of the American Revolutionary War <strong>and</strong> who "rides forth to<br />

the scene of battle in nightly quest of his head." Crane disappears from town, leaving Katrina<br />

to marry Brom Bones, who was "to look exceedingly knowing whenever the story of Ichabod<br />

was related."<br />

50 "...Sanskrit of the Vedic Hymns..."<br />

"Sanskrit (संःकृ ता वाक् sa sk tā vāk, for short संःकृ तम ्sa<br />

sk tam) is a classical<br />

language of South Asia, a liturgical language of Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism, <strong>and</strong><br />

one of the 23 official languages of India.<br />

Its position in the cultures of South <strong>and</strong> Southeast Asia is akin to that of Latin <strong>and</strong> Greek in<br />

Europe <strong>and</strong> it has evolved into, as well as influenced, many modern-day languages of the<br />

world. It appears in pre-Classical form as Vedic Sanskrit, with the language of the Rigveda<br />

being the oldest <strong>and</strong> most archaic stage preserved. Dating back to as early as 1500 BCE,<br />
