231: All Quiet On The Western Front
... to enlist as volunteers to prove their patriotism. Joseph Behm did not want to go, but eventually he gave in to Kantorek's unrelenting pressure. He was one of the first to die, and his death was particularly horrible. With Behm's death, Paul and his classmates lost their innocent trust in figures of authority. Kantorek often writes letters to them filled with the empty phrases of patriotic fervor. They go to see Kemmerich, who is unaware that ... were cut off from life just as they had begun to love it. The older soldiers have jobs and families to which they can return after the war. They will forget the trenches and the death, but the young men have nothing definite to which they can set their sights. Their past lives are vague, unreal dreams. During the training, Paul and his classmates learned that classical patriotism requires the ...
232: Kevorkian Essay
Jack Kevorkian is one of America's most controversial people. Since 1989 he has aided in the death of over one hundred people, some as young as twenty-one. Kevorkian has used three methods for assisting in the suicides of his "patients". His original death machine was "execution by lethal injection, except you do it yourself." This death machine was simply a metal pole with bottles containing drug solutions. A needle was inserted into the arm of the "patient" and the flow of saline started. A switch would need to be hit ...
233: Confronting Death In Poetry
Raised fists and a fading smile usually follow the confrontation of death as we experience the first stages of denial in the grieving process. We not only grieve at the loss of a loved one, but at the loss of our own life as well. When death rears its ugly head, it demands this response. Whether through art or science, humor or ritual, mankind marks and confronts this passage with both defiance and trepidation that eventually turns into acceptance and submission. The fear of death seems to be based on two things: the finality of death and the uncertainty of what follows. Many works have been written on the topic, some to offer consolation, others hope, and still others ...
234: Duino Elegies- Life Or Death
... point out a specific meaning in Duino Elegies what would it tell us? If someone say without a doubt what Duino Elegies is about, what would they say? They might say life, they might say death, or they might say neither. In either case they would probably be right, for Duino Elegies touches upon not only life and death but many others things having to do with human existence such as love, change, loss, and pain. It searches not only for the meaning of life, that would be trivial in comparison, but it searches also for the meaning of death, love, nature, and in a sense creation in itself. A book of poetry spanning the length of ten years Duino Elegies is considered by many to be a masterpiece. Rilke began Duino Elegies at ...
235: Anna Karenina
... absolutely correct, because within Anna Karenina, there exists many themes that are all linked together to create such a wonderful piece of work. Critics tend to miss the role that the theme of life and death plays in Tolstoy's Anna Karenina. Despite its apparent meanings, these two themes are intertwined in the novel and provides a backbone for some of the other existing themes. With a masterful touch, Tolstoy is ... two themes to show the characters in their true forms at both stages. The characters are shown to be living in a state of delusion, and as the characters find themselves at times of near death situations or on their deathbed, they are able to reveal themselves truthfully. Many of the characters in the novel are able to show their "real self" and at times of death, there is a point of reversal in the characters. This is most evident in the scene of Anna's near death experience during her illness. This event brings about a change in Karenin and ...

240: Killing Is Wrong In Every Aspe
... Why do we kill people to show that killing people is wrong?" This statement shows the clear hypocrisy involved in capital punishment. Of course, vicious killers should be convicted and sentenced to harsh punishments, but death should not be an option. I feel that the government is taking the easy way out when it pushes for capital punishment. There are other ways to punish and rehabilitate the convicted. Barbaric is a sound adjective to describe capital punishment. We are a civilized society and therefore should have the utmost respect for human life. Killing, regardless of the reason, is barbaric. In David Bruck's essay, "The Death Penalty", he clearly shows the barbarism involved with the death penalty. He says, "Perhaps we want retribution on the flesh and bone of a handful of convicted murderers so badly that we are willing to ...
