Analysis Of Jack Turners The A
Number of pages: 13 | Number of words: 3456

.... it, make maps of it, and place it in a national park that we ruin the magic, the aura, and the wildness of that place. Nature magazines, photographs, and films all contribute to the removal of our wild experience with nature. It is the difference between visiting the Grand Canyon after you have seen it on TV and read about it in magazines, or never having heard of the place and stumbling across it on your own during a hike. Unfortunately, almost every wild experience between nature and the public has been ruined by the media. Through Turner’s story he begi .....


Brutus, A Tragic Hero
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 547

.... close friend to Julius Caesar. Third, he was courageous because he decided to be a part of the conspiracy not for his own personal gain but for the good of Rome. Also, a tragic hero needs to have a tragic flaw. Brutus's tragic flaw is that he is naive. The conspirators needed Brutus because he was considered honorable. The conspirators led him to believe that Caesar was ambitious and wanted to be the king of Rome. As a tragic hero, Brutus was dignified, courageous, and high ranking, but he was naïve and so he had a tragic flaw. Moreover, Brutus was a tragic hero for other .....


1984 Vs. Brave New World
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1361

.... a particular mental state on the person using the vocabulary. Finally, the C vocabulary is based solely on technical and scientific words, constructed of only strict and rigid meanings. Individual thought is completely impossible because the constricted vocabulary is intended to include only principles of the Newspeak language. The vocabulary is constructed so that words of unorthodox meaning such as “individual freedom” are eliminated all together. Newspeak is designed to douse the flame of thought and idea, while encouraging collective ideas. Ov .....


Ariel By Sylvia Plath
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1200

.... ends with the woman defiantly asserting power over her body and releasing its energies for her own ends" (Bundtzen 233). While the outcome of the poem is positive, "Plath turns on herself, identifying with her oppressor, and sadistically punishes her body in the process of recreating it" (Bundtzen 237). Plath did not see the rebirth process as a pleasant experience, but one that is expected of her "I guess you could say I've got a call" (Plath 245). She, however, sees the benefits that come from her suffering and continues the process again and again. “Fever 103" .....


Overhead Look At Sands
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1113

.... to become Sense and Sensibility. I believe that the title is significant to the book because it describes what the book is really about. Sense and Sensibility is about how Elinor, practical and conventional, must learn to show her sensible side more often, and how Marianne, emotional and sentimental, should use her sense more frequently. Elinor conceals her feelings until she hardly knows how to or wants to reveal them. But on the other hand, Marianne wants to play out her romantic fantasies. The book describes how Elinor and Marianne eventually mix their sense and .....


Othello - Values And Attitudes
Number of pages: 9 | Number of words: 2473

.... were beginning to be used in Europe for the slave trade. During the time the play was written, the Queen of England had banned all blacks from entering the city. She spoke of them as "Negars and Moors which are crept into the realm, of which kind of people there are already here too many". It seems that Shakespeare is almost mocking the Queen by characterising Othello as a black man who has a high ranking position in the Army and who marries a white aristocratic women, against her fathers will. Ruth Cowlig suggests that the presentation of Othello as the hero must .....


Sonnet 130
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 825

.... earnest and truthful in what he writes about his love. "I love to hear her speak, yet well I know that music hath a far more pleasing sound, yet, I think my love as rare as any she belied with false compare." This shows his honesty in speaking about his object of affection, yet he achieves the same sense of unconditional love that the poet in Marlowe’s poem tries to delineate without using embellishments. The speaker in Sonnet 130 doesn’t hyperbolize about his "rare" love using a plethora of exaggerations to portray his fondness for his "mistress&q .....


Good News From Outer Space By
Number of pages: 7 | Number of words: 1704

.... present day society simply because of the huge percentage of Christian followers who also believe in a “Second Coming.” The Reverend Jimmy-Don Gilray, a major character in the book, is convinced that God will send a messenger to arrive on earth on January 1, 2000 in a spaceship. Using television, the smooth preaching Gilray manages to herd the followers in like cattle by the thousands. The words roll off of his tongue like honey and his followers are easily convinced that the perilous times of their last days have come Gilray’s prophecies are given light in .....
