487 Words - 2 Pages

.... go to school and live on campus. In “Day of the Last Rock Fight” they go to school eight class periods and come home. The similarities are both schools are all boys. Both of the schools have a conflict and could see girls when they didn't have school. The deaths in the two stories also differ. In “Dead Poets Society” there is 1 suicide and in “Day of the Last Rock Fight” there is 1 suicide and 1 murder. The suicide in “Day of the Last Rock Fight” is due to the fact that the cops found that Peter murdered the bully. And in “Dead Poets Society” it was because of pressure from the family. The father wanted him to be something that he didn't want for himself. ....


Glass Menagerie Commentary
563 Words - 3 Pages

.... the play, she had completely opened up to Jim and even showed him her glass menagerie, her most prized possession. I think that the stage directions in this play were both useful and annoying. I say that they were useful because they helped me to understand the plot and the characters motives and actions easier and better. But they were annoying because there were so many of them, and at times Tennessee Williams was overly descriptive in his stage directions. This play made me think about how people with disabilities are treated. I had always thought that in the thirties and forties, being disabled was not accepted. But after reading this play, I am starting to think that I ....


Chicano Literature

.... ever read in Spanish were not written by a Chicanos: Boda de Sangre by Federico Garcia Lorca (in which I had the honor of playing the part of el novio)and El Caballero de Olmedo by Lope de Vega (in which I had the honor of playing the part of Alonzo). I put away the Whitman poem and became lost in my own critical thought. Was there not a single Chicano or Chicana that had ever written a work of fiction? I went to the library's computerized card catalogue system to investigate this matter. Of course I found Chicano fictional writers; however, not as many as I wish I would've found. And so I decided to base my paper on a topic that I don’t recall we ever discussed in ....


Julius Ceasar -mark Antony
1842 Words - 7 Pages

.... were a close friend. Antony's loyalty is shown when Caesar asks him to touch Calphurnia on the holly chase. Antony replies "When Caesar says 'Do this,' it is perform'd" this shows Antony is loyal, and obedient to Caesars will. After Caesar's death Antony again shows his loyalty, and asks if he is to be killed, he would like to be killed by the side of the noble Caesar. "If I myself, there is no hour so fit As Caesar's death's hour" "No place will please me so, no mean of death, As here by Caesar" this shows that he holds Caesar as a very noble man, and that he loved him. However, Antony then appears to make friends with the conspirators when he addresses them after Caesars de ....


Essay Analyzing The Biographic
1630 Words - 6 Pages

.... Tom is a likeness of Tennessee Williams. There are many similarities between his life and Tom’s life. Some of them are about his own actions, and some of them are about the actions in the life of his family. First we will look at Tennessee Williams life, and how it is much the same as the life of the character Tom in The Glass Menagerie. He is the narrator, “an undisguised invention of the play. He takes whatever license with dramatic convention as is convenient to his purposes” (1147). “I am the narrator of the play, and also a character in it. The other characters are my mother, Amanda, my sister, Laura” (1147). Because Tom is the narra ....


Beowulf And His Virtues
455 Words - 2 Pages

.... when he describes the contest between himself and his boyhood friend Breca. Beowulf and Breca were in the midst of a swimming competition on the open sea. Breca couldn’t keep up with Beowulf, but being the honorable warrior, he refused to leave his side. Beowulf fought off monsters in the oceans deep, protecting Breca from the “grisly sea beasts.” (430) Beowulf’s morality came also in the form of loyalty to people and his word. Loyalty to his father remained throughout the epic. On numerous occasions he boasted of his father, Ecgtheow, who “was famous in many a folk-land,” (195) thus immortalizing his name. Promises made by Beowulf were worth their weight ....


Emily Dickinson 3
731 Words - 3 Pages

.... are also primary in her poems and they are often cconcerned with celestial betrothal. In the poem "Death is a subtle suitor", Dickinson illustrates the love-death symbolism, an explicit rendering of deatyh as the lover who transports her in his carriage to be married in a proxy wedding. Dickinson uses the metaphor of a funeral as the wedding journey to eternity, setting up a system of correspondences between the changes brought about by death ans the changes in role of the unnamed partners in this spiritual love game. 'Death', to be sure, is not the true bridegroom but a surrogare, which accounts for his minor role. He is the envoy taking her on this curously premature wed ....

.... made killed ½ of the children on the bus. Dolores was let go from her job and alienated by her town, Sam Dent. In come the lawyers. After the accident everyone in town was mourning, and looking for some way to get over the pain. For a lot of these people, the answer was money; at least they thought it was.
