- 2851: Literary Study
- The Beginning's of Literary Study - For Dummies J A Modified Version of R. L. McGuire's Passionate Attention: an introduction to literary study. Literature and criticism One's unique personal experiences are from whence their values are formed. These values come to light as a reader reads or a writer writes. Literature is a record of specific personal perceptions: H. Read-"the outer image of inward things". Literature proves the richness not the limitations of being human. Literary criticism is discernment-the ability to see. The student needs to form their own critical ...
- 2852: Friedrich Nietzsche's Philosophy
- ... will to power. The other is driven by the will to power but attempts to deny this. The term “master morality” refers to all the values of the psychologically strong willed people. They stress independence, personal dignity, self-approval and the will to succeed. For such people “good” refers to whatever leads to self-fulfillment with values such as nobility, strength, courage, power and pride. The antithesis to the master morality ... at others and follow, lack self respect, and people who waist their talents. I think that the “master morality” would include qualities from both of Nietzsche’s personality types. It would include such virtues as personal power, strength, courage, pride, independence, patience, kindness, charity and compassion. This to me is a complete person. But this is reality and in reality you can have these virtues and at the same time stray ...
- 2853: Alfred Nobel
- ... idiomatic errors. To his mother he always wrote in Swedish, which is also the language of the will he composed in Paris. The fields embraced by the prizes stipulated by the will reflect Nobel's personal interests. While he provided no prizes for architects, artists, composers or social scientists, he was generous to those working in physics, chemistry, physiology and medicine—the subjects he knew best himself, and in which he ... were not successful, problems related to transfusions were later solved by an Austrian, Karl Landsteiner, who won the 1930 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. The Nobel Prize in Literature, too, reflects the donor's personal predilections.

- 2854: Lord of the Flies: The Beast Within Us
- ... in William Golding's Lord of the Flies. In this story, the lord of the flies is right in saying that man is inherently evil. This presence of evil, is shown through character evolution, my personal views and experiences in the real world and the source of evil itself. During the coarse of the story the characters do and say many things that reveal their inner devil. One of the characters ... but it seems to keep popping back up at the wrong moments. In conclusion, the evil that we think of is not something on the outside, but something on the inside. Through character evolution, my personal views on evil in the real world, and the source of evil, we learned that everyone is inherently evil. These boys spent one of the most important times of their lives on an island. They ...
- 2855: Canterbury Tales - Courtly Love In Chaucer
- ... that he would treat her with respect and honor. Instead, marriage is being used to further one's opportunity to perform noble and virtuous roles, explaining the struggle between a lover's commitment to his personal or public life. Chaucer foreshadows the improbable success of this duality with the Dorigen's proclamation, "Ne wolde never God bitwixe us tweyne" (171). Not only does this contain a double negative, suggesting that a ... upon words is directly tied to how it reflects upon social standing. The virtue of generosity becomes so entangled with the self-interests that no one commits acts of good will without ulterior motives of personal gain, framing this irony is the Franklin's question "Which was the moste free, as thnketh yowe?" (950). If a world places a higher position on truth in external interaction than it grants to private ...
- 2856: Ebola
- ... severe bleeding, kidney malfunctions, and shock. The conclusions of the viral hemorrhagic fever can range from a mild illness to death (www.cdc.gov/nci..brochures/ebolainf.html, 1995). Ebola viruses are spread though close personal contact with a person who is very ill with the disease. Usually the wide spread action of the virus takes place among hospital care workers or family members who were aiding an infected person. Ebola ... recent Ebola Zaire outbreak started with a surgery on a suspected Malaria patient in Kikwit, Zaire on April 10, 1995. As in the 1976 outbreak, secondary transmission of the virus in Kikwit occurred though close personal contact with infectious blood and other body fluids. Members of the surgical team then developed symptoms similar to those of a viral hemorrhagic fever disease. The Ebola Zaire in Kikwit spread quickly, but investigation and ...
- 2857: George Frideric Handel
- ... father soon realized this, he sent Handel away to study in Berlin. In Berlin, Handel was taught under the great composer Frideric Wilhelm Zachau. One of the great influences on Handle was while he was writing the Messiah in three weeks. Handle, before writing the Messiah, had rented a theatre for his own use, and though he had some successes, he had more failures. He was bankrupt twice through his opera business. If Handel had been more successful with ...

Another man named Doctor Kemp was writing until he heard the shots outside. He opened the window and looked at the crowd at the inn.

- 2860: Langston Hughes - Poetry Analy
- ... first and foremost a poet,) he produced a great deal of work in other genres as well, including autobiography, fiction, plays, children’s books, newspaper pieces, and anthologies. Because he supported himself solely through his writing, Hughes wrote constantly. Not only does this divert our attention from his chief (and strongest) genre, it also obviously distracted him from concentrating on and producing good work. I believe that his need for money caused him to write for the sole purpose of writing, rather than to convey a message. This, surprisingly, resulted in a lot of bad poetry – more than would have been present had he completely devoted himself and his efforts to the production and development of ...
