- 11651: William Shaksphere
- ... to Stratford in 1613 where he wrote many of his excellent plays. There are many reasons as to why William Shakespeare is so famous. He is generally considered to be both the greatest dramatist the world has ever known as well as the finest poet who has written in the English language. Many reasons can be given for Shakespeare's enormous appeal. His fame basically is from his great understanding of ... nature, Shakespeare had a vast knowledge of a variety of subjects. These subjects include music, law, Bible, stage, art, politics, history, hunting, and sports. Shakespeare had a tremendous influence on culture and literature throughout the world. He contributed greatly to the development of the English language. Many words and phrases from Shakespeare's plays and poems have become part of our speech. Shakespeare's plays and poems have become a required ... love, heroism, comedy, and tragedy have helped shape the attitudes of millions of people. His portrayal of historical figures and events have influenced our thinking more than what has been written in history books. The world has admired and respected many great writers, but only Shakespeare has generated such enormous continuing interest. My source states explanations rather than opinions on why Shakespeare's contributions to literature are so vast. My ...
- 11652: Wilfred Owen Poems Analysis
- Wilfred Owen Poems Analysis 20th Century War Poems Analysis I think that your production of a new book "Anthology for a Warred Youth", the content it should include is of three sections. The three sections should consist of "Sending Men of to War," "Horror within War" and "After effects of War". The ... the men really need a physical passionate feeling for a memorable kiss as they may not return to see the wonders of deep passion after war. A possible reason for selecting this poem in your new book "Anthology for a Warred youth", is that when war broke out in August 1914 many people thought the war would be battled and reached a successful conclusion. But many of them wrong to think ... of the train. The mist maybe fog, the unknown, the mist of the 'garden' of heaven and death. Very slowly they fade away and almost disappeared "singing they pass," from one life form to another 'new' life form. There is a regular rhyme scheme of AB AB through all of the poem. This regular rhyme scheme contributes to the marching of the men. All of these poems are similar when ...
- 11653: Why Hamlet Is Not Fit To Rule
- ... not strike to advantage. Fueled by the departure of his protected childhood, Hamlet's temper severely distorts his outlook, philosophy and reasoning. The vast contrast from guarded youth to sudden misfortune devastates the Prince's world, as Hamlet's probity and grievance polarize his emotions. Moreover, preceding the ages of approximately twenty-five to thirty, Hamlet had never experienced genuine tragedy. Deducing these factors offers a starting point to further analyze ... Hamlet's actions deserve a compassionate view inasmuch as his burdens unfairly seek him out. Shakespeare ironically limns Hamlet a courageous yet injured character having no recourse for recovery, too sensitively lost in the real world. A notable ruler can only sensibly heed the concerns of preserving his own kingdom. Hamlet does not employ constant nature for hardened decisions in high office but a quick temper for mischief. Hamlet's extreme ... s sensitive nature does not enable leadership fit for a king since his morality preys self-paralyzing. Sheltered youth, endmost love for his parents and ghostly visits inculcate and reinforce his susceptibility to the outside world. Hamlet depicts evil for evil yet good as crushed worthiness. In essence, a socialized norm of honor and morality dictate the test for Hamlet, whereas the inability to reconcile the loss of his father ...
- 11654: Critical Analysis Of House Opp
- ... her. He continued to think about what went on behind the closed doors, the men that waited around outside the house "smoking, chewing tobacco and spitting into the gutter - committing all the sins of the world according to the hermit." In fact, after the story unfolded, the hermit was so upset that he was "forced" to leave behind his shelter to look for a new place, thinking that he would rather not have a roof at all rather than live near the woman. He could not tend to his proper thoughts, and was not able to keep his gaze on ...
- 11655: Wandering Girl, What Insights
- ... were many challenges that Glenyse had to face as a young person, but despite these challenges she was able to over come them and make something of her life. I think Glenyse was a very brave person to leave the Bigelow farm and to start a new life. Glenyse realised there was nothing bad about herself. It was the Bigelows who need changing. Glenyse moved on from being a slave and found a real job, working as a nurse in a hospital ...
- 11656: Waiting For Sisyphus
- ... with Existentialism. Its founders toiled to define it, philosophers strained to grasp it, teachers have a difficult time explaining it. Where do these Existentialists get the right to tell me that my one and only world is meaningless? How can a student believe that someone was sitting in jail and figured out that our existence precedes our essence? Existentialism places man in the center of his own universe; free to make his own choices and decide his purpose. Many of us are not ready for this. Fortunately, the world has come to trust its authors. You can t just sit down and explain the Existentialist belief to a person - it must be put into the context of the human situation. Through stories and situations ... s Thus Spoke Zarathustra, and theater of the absurd plays like Samuel Beckett s Waiting for Godot and Eugene Ionesco s Amedee - they spin you around on your chair so you are facing the real world, and then shove you right into the middle of it. Existentialism especially turns our attention toward the meaningless, repetitive and dull existences we all must lead. Two works, The Myth of Sisyphus by Albert ...
- 11657: Viderunt Omnes By Magister Leo
- ... Without the stoney layers of natural reverb to meld entrances and changes in pitch into a wash of sound, I belive composers and musicians became more aware of precision and the need for it in new surroundings that were not so forgiving of sloppiness. This particular piece remains rooted in the sloppy age. Rhythmic notation was an emerging craft as was polyphonic composition. In lieu of this, I would not expect ... rhythm into the nebulous organum of the beginning. Leonin was, after all, starting down this path of polyphony without a map. By taking taking the old and adding to it (troping), he could bring about new textures without abandoning the old. He was playing with polyphony and discovering the rhythmic variation it offered. Melodic variation of the time (tuning, 1/4 or 1/3 tones) would require another paper to discuss ... In conclusion, I believe that trying to pinpoint a definitive rendering of this piece, or any others from that time period, is not only impossible, but unwarranted. Even today, one can find examples of fairly new tunes that are played differently in different places on different occasions. Thelonious Monk's "'Round Midnight," within a decade of its release, was already being played with "East Coast changes" or "West Coast changes." ...
- 11658: 80s
- ... city. Imagination was the key. It made the Ewok treehouse big enough for you to be Luke and the kitchen table and an old sheet dark enough to be a tent in the forest. Your world was the backyard and it was all you needed. With your pink portable tape player, Debbie Gibson sang back up to you and everyone wanted a skirt like the Material Girl and a glove like ... just tails. Rave was a girl's best friend; braces with colored rubber bands made you cool. The backdoor was always open and Mom served only red Kool-Aid to the neighborhood kids-never drank New Coke. Entertainment was cheap and lasted for hours. All you needed to be a princess was high heels and an apron; the Sit'n'Spin always made you dizzy but never made you stop; Pogoballs ...
- 11659: 2061 Odyssey
- ... human's curiosity and exploring the laws of physics. Heywood Floyd returns again for another mission into space. Floyd starts off on a mission he was dreaming about since he was a little kid. A new spaceship, the Universe, which uses water as fuel, is going to visit and study Haley's comet. The comet has many surprises for its visitors. In another part of space, another ship (Galaxy) is studying Europa, one of the moons of the new sun. The new sun, once used to be Jupiter, is referred to as Lucifer, which is very odd. Europa is off grounds to humans because of the unusual activity happening on that moon. Unfortunately, the Galaxy is ...

- ... to protect, and realization that he can't be the savior of society's corruption. Although the scene in the elementary school halls hint to Holden that he can't make the imperfections of the world disappear, nothing provides the determining insight better than his little sister, Phoebe.
