Ecclesiates
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1411

.... is the Hebrew word for teacher or philosopher. This name acts as a label of occupation but it doesn’t place a specific identity on the author. However, there are a number of clues in the book (and in others) that give us a pretty strong probability that the author was indeed King Solomon. First, the title “Son of David” (1:1) leads us to believe that Solomon could in fact be the author. Reading further in the same chapter, we find the quote “King of Jerusalem”. Solomon was king of Jerusalem at the time Ecclesiastes was written (971-931 BC). E .....


Heart Of Darkness

.... journey, was also meaningful. Marlow experienced the violent threat of nature, the insensibility of reality, and the moral darkness. We have noticed that important motives in connect the white men with the Africans. Conrad knew that the white men who come to Africa professing to bring progress and light to "darkest Africa" have themselves been deprived of the sanctions of their European social orders; they also have been alienated from the old tribal ways. "Thrown upon their own inner spiritual resources they may be utterly damned by their greed, their sloth, and their hyp .....


Portrait Of The Artist
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 617

.... is leaving the meeting James Joyce uses imagery as before in the novel to compel the reader to think of Stephen the artist. "A quartet of young men ….. stepping to the agile melody of their leader's concertina". This is where Stephen starts to think of the dull "passionless life that awaited him". These troubles lead him into thoughts of the symbols of the church especially that of the Virgin Mary and how they are loosing their slots in his memory. These in turn are being replaced by images of freedom and the ease at which men of his kind can "fall". His thinking leads him on .....


Misunderstood
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 560

.... did was shrug them off. When Bob Ewell spit in Atticus’s face, Atticus still did not retaliate. Instead, he wiped the spit off of his face and kept walking minding his own business. This showed Scout and Jem that there was no reason to worry themselves with other peoples opinion’s. When Mrs. Dubose called Atticus a nigger lover to Jem, Jem got angry and went home and asked Atticus if he really was a nigger lover. Atticus said straight out with no thought, “I certainly am. I do my best to love everyone…I’m hard to put, sometimes-baby, its n .....


What Is Literature
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 559

.... persuasive pieces of writing. "The nations of Asia and Africa are moving with jetlike speed toward gaining political independence, but we still creep at horse-and-buggy pace toward gaining a cup of coffee at a lunch counter"(King 14). This vivid comparison reflects the innate talent for writing possessed by Dr. King as well as his strong idea. By reinforcing his statement using powerful and persuasive words, Dr. King's "The Letter From Birmingham Jail" has become a memorable piece of literature. Use of the resource of language is another aspect that helps to define literatu .....


January Chance

.... death. The organization of the poem is created so that the readers will feel what is happening as the poem is being read. The literal meanings are said through words like time, voyaging, and seat backs. The metaphorical terms are expressed through the more thoughtful words like white noise, time, and train. The first stanza of the poem begins talking about the relationship between the two passengers. “All afternoon before them, father and boy” tells a reader that they are together early in the day or, metaphorically, early in their lives. Also, as stated above, the father and .....


Say Yes
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1014

.... opinions of others, hindering the idea of an individual’s essence. If an essence really existed, another person’s thoughts would not affect someone else’s. Instead, a person makes choices from birth and the different decisions that one chooses form a pattern and creates one’s character. Sartre also says, "Man is nothing else than his plan; he exists only to the extent that he fulfills himself; he is therefore nothing else than the ensemble of his acts, nothing else than his life" (769). This exemplifies the point that man is the product of his actions and has complete control o .....

.... of the Temple”(1). However, once the deportation of the ghettoes occurs, Elie’s faith begins to grow weaker. On the day of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, thousands of prisoners attend the services. The air rang with cries of, “Blessed be the Name of the Eternal!” But in Elie’s mind, he wonders, Why, but why should I bless Him? Because he had thousands of children burned in His pits? Because He kept six crematories work- ing night and day, on Sundays and feast days? How could I say to Him: ‘Blessed art Thou, Eternal, Master of the Universe, Who chos .....
