Camus' "The Stranger": Choice And Individual Freedom Are Integral Components Of Human Nature
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 435

.... in heated discussions with the magistrate and prison minister, who are seen as paragons of invalid logic and the quixotic, quasi-passionate pursuit of hackneyed conformity. No windmills are slain1 in this simulated existence; absurdity of a different ilk dominates the popular mentality, one which would alienate a man based on his perceived indifference towards the mundane, and try, convict, and execute a man based on his lack of purported empathy towards the irrelevant. Attention to the trial sequence will reveal that the key elements of the conviction had little to do with t .....


Canterbury Tales Wife Of Bath
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 426

.... and their household and very specifically, "...not he". This can be interpretated that her husband will not have the same privileges as her in the sense that he is like a 'slave' and she will 'command' over him.. This quotation seems as if the Wife of Bath is leaning toward the feministic opinion. "Nevertheless, since I know your pleasure I'll satisfy your physical pleasure." This was said by the Wife of Bath and supports the non-feministic view. The reason this is considered non-feministic is because the woman is giving in to the ma .....


Interior Monologue
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 920

.... I am wheeling through the shopping centre just wanting to go to the music store to pick up that new CD I wanted. But as usual I have to deal with being stared at continuously by these narrow-minded people who just think of me as some kind of retard. I don’t remember the accident, the car accident that is. I remember growing up in the wheelchair though. Well, for a while when I was young it wasn’t a wheelchair that I had; it was this little skateboard type thing you could say. It used to bother me how I saw kids running around and playing while I was there in my wheelchair. .....


Hamlets Insanity 2
Number of pages: 7 | Number of words: 1795

.... perform this wicked deed. The protagonist’s mind is also filled with enough incestuous thoughts of his very own mother to disturb the audience. The most troubling and powerful piece of evidence to prove his insanity is that he does not feel the slightest twinge of guilt nor the smallest sliver of remorse after he murders three innocent bystanders in cold blood. The human conscience is what separates humans from animals because human’s have the ability to question evil deeds such as murder yet Hamlet’s conscience remains untouched after the murders of thr .....


The Accounts Of Eros In The "Symposium"
Number of pages: 7 | Number of words: 1763

.... is practical, and shows love not as a heavenly creature, but as a mortal being, where we can interact with him. It also has answers that most of the other accounts could not even question. This is what stands the speechof Socrates and Diotima apart from most of the others. But, there were two other speeches that were also impressive and brought about points that Socrates did not make. These accounts were given by Aristophanes and Agathon. Through these three speeches, we can get a good picture of what eros is. Starting with the most complete account: Socrates and Diotima; .....


Columbine High School
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 353

.... rather it be a lack of morals, knowledge, or values, people believe they need these things. Without people like that in this world, fifteen people would still be alive, parents and friends would not be suffering the loss of loved ones, and a nation would not be mouring. The effect thid massacre had on millions of people will face us everyday. Will students be safe in school, can we suspect others to do the same thing? That is what is wrong with our nation and other nations today. We have no compassion or respect for ones life. We do not value things that should be importa .....


Taming Of The Shrew
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 810

.... Petruchio's sense of humor and his appreciation of things non-conventional. Though Petruchio may not agree with what society has determined to be proper and dignified, he is aware of the importance of appearing to conform. In what he says to Hortensio, I feel he is simply extending this sport and humor into the ironic. It is in Hortensio's description of Kate that I believe Petruchio's interest is captured. Hortensio describes Kate (I.ii.85-89) as wealthy, young, beautiful, properly brought up intolerably cursed, shrewed and froward. Though Hortensio finds the last three traits .....


Blind Conformity In The Crucib
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 326

.... all facets of life, and is almost unavoidable. I, personally, conform blindly without thinking all the time. For example, when I'm getting dressed in the morning I sometimes catch myself wondering if the outfit I picked out will be "cool enough", subconsciously trying to fit in. Another, more important, example is the problem of drinking and drug use with high school-aged kids. Most kids just want to fit in and will do whatever is considered cool to feel like they are "normal", even if they hate the taste of beer. This type of blind conformity is not usually life threatening, b .....
