African American Literature Sh
440 Words - 2 Pages

.... to do what he was suppose to being doing and not worry about it. The Captain totally disregarded Shine’s warning about the overflow of water in the boiler. After Shine told the Captain what was going on, he knew of the outcome of the overflow of water in the ship, and so he decided not to hang around to find out; Shine jumped ship. Even when the Captain’s daughter called out to him, Shine’s ultimate goal was to get safely to shore and leave the sinking ship. Shine swam to shore for thirty minutes before reaching the shore. Since Shine was part of the Titanic crew, he perhaps knew that swimming was his only chance to save his life; he was not going to st ....


The Black Death
1089 Words - 4 Pages

.... the dead families. First it was the youngest Sarah. Then quickly followed by Geoffrey the eldest son. Nest was the woman of the house Amy which I especially cared for because of her wonderful ability to clean me. Last was the man of the house Bruce. Every night I heard his cries as each family member dies. And then I heard his screams as the plague ate his body alive. I can still remember the scratching on my walls as he struggled with the pain of this great sickness. No matter how hard I tried to be the great shelter I once was. No matter how tight I shut my windows and doors. No matter how I wished them not to leave the house. I could not keep the plague out. I rememb ....


Injustice To Kill A Mockingbir
859 Words - 4 Pages

.... example of this. The entire trial, from the accusations of him raping Mayella, to the guilty verdict, were all racially biased. The entire town formed the opinion that it was typical black man behavior, and that Tom was guilty. The court gasped when he commented about his pity for Mayella, because for a black person to feel sorry for a white person was unacceptable; it was to be the reverse. The verdict of the all-white jury came right down to the color of his skin, even though Atticus had more than proved Tom's innocence. The "Old Sarum" mob played a part in this injustice as well, when they came to harm Tom and instill fear in Atticus so that he would decline from ....


A Critical Analysis Of William
1484 Words - 6 Pages

.... which the poem’s content can be dramatically highlighted, as well as reinforcing the eventual impression that the poem describes an emotionally constraining relationship. In this essay I will investigate the tools with which Shakespeare constructs this unconventional love poem. The sonnet has a definite sense of strophic development, and the frequent ‘twists’ in the narration necessitate a close examination of this. The sonnet begins with a “When” clause, launching the reader on a sentence of indeterminate length and subsequently leaving us with expectation, in suspense, at the end of the line. The woman is emphatic: she does not merely tell t ....


Hamlet 2
811 Words - 3 Pages

.... his conversation with Gertrude is Claudius("Nay, I know not: is it the King?" Act 3, Scene 4 line 28). Consequently, Hamlet consumed with rage automatically thrusts out attempting to kill Claudius, but instead strikes Polonius. Hamlet’s and Laertes’s imprudent actions are incited by fury and frustration. Sudden anger prompts both Hamlet and Laertes to act spontaneously, giving little thought to the consequences of their actions. Hamlet and Laertes share a different but deep love and concern for Ophelia. Before his departure for France Laertes provides lengthy advice to Ophelia pertaining to her relationship with Hamlet. Laertes voices his concern of Hamlet’ ....


Macbeth 7
690 Words - 3 Pages

.... of MacBeth and L. MacBeth and as the story goes on. In 1.3 of MacBeth, MacBeth and Banquo meet the Weird Sisters and they greet MacBeth, “Thane of Glamis, Thane of Cawdor, and King hereafter.” This is the beginning of the demise of MacBeth’s sanity. As the story goes on and MacBeth is at Duncan’s castle, 1.4, Duncan names his son, Malcolm, the new Prince of Cumberland, meaning he shall be king. MacBeth then says, “The Prince of Cumberland! That is a step on which I must fall down or else o’erleap, For in my way it lies. Stars, Hide your fires; Let not light see my black and deep desires.” I think this is when he gets the first i ....


Black History, The Piano
1782 Words - 7 Pages

.... family, about the piano saying " it was the story of our whole family" (p.45). Doakers job in the play is to carry the background story of the bloodstained piano to the viewer. He is also a reminder to respect the past and a realization that our past is not that far in back of us. Another way this play teaches duty toward heritage is it's assertion that you cannot escape racism by pretending it's non-existence, and that the ghosts of slavery's past will follow you unless you hold them up. This was demonstrated in the conclusion of the play when Bernice faces her denial of the piano and "realizes what she must do" and exercises Sutters ghost by "beginning to play"(106). W ....


The Internal Action Of Hamlet
1025 Words - 4 Pages

.... because he has thought of committing suicide. It shows in the play that many things are bothering him, because of his erratic behaviour. Many times in this play, Hamlet portrays his struggle internally, that prevents him from acting on his tasks. Hamlet is struggling inside of himself whether the ghost was a good spirit or evil one. Hamlet debates within himself whether or not to kill Claudius and seek revenge. Because of his uncertainty Hamlet had the players put on a play to catch Claudius’ reaction. Example of this is when Hamlet says Hamlet: The play’s the thing/Wherein I’ll catch the conscience of the King”. [Act II, Scene ii, line 616-61 ....
