- 3983: Analysis Of Lorca’s Lament For Ignacio Sanchez Mejias
- Analysis Of Lorca’s Lament For Ignacio Sanchez Mejias Today’s society has a tendency to rely on television and movies as their sole source of enjoyment.

The problem is largely a matter of timing; when the book came out in 1969, the moral dilemma ... least, the argument centers on whether or not the act should be legal, not on whether or not doctors are currently breaking the law by performing them.

Karen Randall, the daughter of an eminent physician, dies as the result of ... the case. Lee calls upon his friend, forensic pathologist John Berry, to clear his name. John Berry careens back and forth from one Boston hospital to another, trying to figure out who actually performed Randall's abortion, and why it killed her.

- 3987: Ufos And Aliens On Earth
- ... you, and, if you had evidence to prove it, the government would take a very close interest in your case, yet many people would call you an idiot.

- 3988: Comparison: Dover Beach And Do
- ... inquire about the whole picture the remainder of the story. The poem "The Dover Bitch: A Criticism of Life," written by Anthony Hecht in 1968, undermines and debases the introspection and romanticism of Matthew Arnold's, "Dover Beach," written about a century earlier in 1867. Introspection is the reflective examination of one's thought process and sensory experience. From the very first line of "The Dover Bitch," the introspection of the Matthew Arnold s poem is completely deconstructed. The parody is a casual conversation that one might hear in a bar.
