80s
.... who sing along with Bruce Springstein and The Bangles perfectly and have no idea why. We recite lines with the Ghostbusters and still look to The Goonies for a great adventure. We flip through T.V. stations and stop at The A Team and Knight Rider and Fame and laugh with The Cosby Show and Family Ties and Punky Brewster and what you talkin' 'bout Willis? We hold strong affections for The Muppets and The Gummy Bears and why did they take the SMURFS off the air? After school specials were only about cig .....

Various Works Of Ee Cummings
.... this poem is looked at from a puzzle point
of view, one begins to put his puzzle together. When read appropriately, the poem then reads "a leaf falls in loneliness." His style was an unbelievable break through in poetry for his time, and still is today. The originality of E. E. Cummings's poems has been surpassed by few and possibly by no other poets. He has written many poems that have the same structure as "l(a".
"In his work, Cummings experimented radically with form, punctuation, spelli .....

Venerating The Mystery The Vir
.... (Figure 2 Feature 4). This strong line emphasizes their link. His attention is exclusively for the Holy Mother. Nothing so profane as a viewer can interrupt it. The Virgin holds the back of her hands towards the viewer. The posture is not one of defensiveness, but is one of inwardness. The long linear brushstrokes of the Virgin's curve and flow to make a space of self and child (Figure 1 Feature 2). This exclusion is humbling. Jesus holds a tiny scroll centered over Mary's heart. There is a special know .....

Victims Still
.... of the programs ties in with why the crime is out of control. According to Elias, social inequality, economic inequality, sexism, and racism are reasons why crimes are still being committed. In order to stop crimes from happening, everyone needs to fell equal to one another. Hate crimes are common against women and minorities. However, if all people thought that no one was better than anyone else was, crime, such as hate crimes, would decrease dramatically as would their victims.

Victorian Doubt In God
.... the whole species of Mankind, and our whole existence and history, are but a floating speck in the illimitable ocean of the All; yet in that ocean; indissoluble portion thereof; partaking of its infinite tendencies: borne this way and that by its deep swelling tides, and grand ocean currents; of which what faintest chance is there that we should ever exhaust the significance, ascertain the goings and comings? A region of Doubt, therefore, lovers forever in the background: in action alone can we have c .....

Viderunt Omnes By Magister Leo
.... Much as we tend to view the past through the prism of today, those who eventually set these ancient chants in standardized notation saw them through an equally tainted gaze. The Benedictine monks left most ornamentation out of their chant settings (C. 1900) because they viewed it as an 18th Century tradition.1 This bias, along with a need to have an easily learnable piece of music, tended to simplify, rather than embellish, the standardized arrangement. True, it could be argued that the text has .....

View From The Bridge 2
.... our imagination. For example, he is an
illegal alien, and this might give the reader a less honorable view of
him, and it might justify Eddie's action. But the fact that Marco left
his family to give them support and to save his oldest son who is
"sick in the chest," (pg. 535) makes the reader forget about his
illegal stay and makes his status rise to the one of a hero.
In this play, Marco's actions lead us to the discovery of a
violent side which he uses to defend his honor in .....

Views Of King Lear
.... be of a high status on the chain and the hero also possesses a tragic flaw that initiates the tragedy. The fall of the hero is not felt by him alone but creates a chain reaction which affects everything below him. There must also be the element of chance or accident that influences some point in the play.
King Lear meets all of these requirements that has been laid out by Bradley which is the most logical for a definition of a tragedy as compared to the definition of a comedy by G. Wilson Knight.

Virgil The Art Of Imitating Ho

echoes present in the epic.
The Aeneid is clearly divided into two parts, “The ‘Odyssean’ Aeneid”3 and, “The
‘Iliadic’ Aeneid.”4 The first six books are based on the Odyssey while the last six books are
based on the Iliad. To clearly see that Virgil was indeed basing his working on Homer, let us
examine the Homeric echoes that are present in the first half, or the Odyssean Aeneid. The first
parallel that pres .....

Virginia Woolf
.... with fear, every hour the thought of death progressing in their head. This is an example of great imagery she uses in explaining an event.
In the same essay she has many more examples of imagery, more than can be expressed. I am beginning to believe she is as remarkable as people say. The more and more I read her writing, the more I began to believe this. She grabs my attention faster and more intensely than any other essayist.
Many people believe her writing style is hard to compre .....

Most importantly, the mother offers advice that only a mother should. Although she is being informative and authoritative, the mother’s tone is often condescending. In particular, she repeatedly utters the same phrase to warn her daughter of becoming a slut.
“…On Sundays try to walk like a lady and not like the slut you are so bent on becoming;…this is how to hem a dress .....

Conrad along with Winifred, a presidents advisor, decide to use a famous Hollywood producer to help create the illusion of war, so he asks Stanley Motss.

Waiting For Godot
.... for a
reader to feel how and understand why Vladimir and Estragon feel as though
they do while they wait, it is essential for that reader to either
understand or experience the same feelings that Vladimir and Estragon are
experiencing. Vladimir and Estragon are waiting; waiting for Godot, to be
exact; and Beckett wants the reader to feel as if he or she were waiting
also. Along with the feeling of waiting that a reader may experience, he
or she might also understand how Vladimir and Estragon .....
