.... “communist songs the entire journey.” (129) By his singing songs about “mournful mothers looking through graves for their dead sons” and “the revolution” the boy demonstrates his naivity. He is, after all, just a young boy. His limited life experience is shown in his singing such songs, without understanding the full meanings and connotations that those songs carry. The boys’ innocence is emphasized here, as these are ‘adult’ songs and it is only, generally, children who sing on car journeys until their voices are gone. Even before boarding the boat, the boy begins to notice how ugly age and adulthood can be. He notices the “gnarled k ....

.... he meets Kate, he begins to fall for her. While he still argues and attempts to train her, it is for his own benefit. He wants her to be less harsh so she can fall in love with him. Petruchio ends up truly caring for and loving Kate, despite the front he puts up having his true identity revealed. As a result of this Katherine, whom we thought would never love anyone, at the end of the story is the only wife who comes when she is beckoned. The other wives only make up excuses. This shows how Kate has a mistaken identity becuase she appears rude and insolent. This situation is one of the ways Shakespeare uses mistaken identity to display theme. Another part of the theme is t ....

.... according to Paradise Lost, Satan is also known to be the source of evil. Satan was sent to Hell as cause of ambition. For the second time ambition and the desire to become more powerful or knowledgeable, was the basis of evil. Satan challenged God, and was condemned to evil. "The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven". Hell is clearly a state of mind. According to the non-physical aspects of Hell described at the end of the poem, one can conclude even from the quote mentioned above, that Hell is what we think of it to be. Can the human exploration for answers, ambition for knowledge, and curiosity reach a level that then thre ....

.... void inside of him is through a large consumption of alcohol. He uses alcohol in order to repress the emotional distress he feels. Jake receives an injury in World War I that leaves him impotent, which is the main reason he has this overwhelming void in his soul. His masculinity is taken, and now he believes he is less of a person because of it. This void is described by critic Mark Spilka when he says, "As Barnes now sees, love itself is dead..." (Spilka,137). The painful discovery, that something believed in by so many is gone, causes Jake to question what is left to believe in. This leaves him with a cold sense of uneasiness, so instead of living with that harsh reality h ....

.... him you could tell that he was devastated. I think that we also learned that if you truly believed in something you wouldn't change what you think no matter what they would do. I think that Wallace's beliefs were worth fighting and dying for because why should you have to be oppressed be a king that would take your things and rule you cruelly. Without their own king Scotland would just be a meaningless province that is guarded by soldiers at all times. Why should you live in constant fear when you can have freedom and live in relative peace and you don't have to worry about what you say or do about the English because they have no rule there? The consequences for all o ....

.... was an integral part of his own life. The Communist Party had been the only one to take a deep interest in Wright's life and had at one time offered to teach him to write. Richard Wright died on November 28, 1960, at the age of 52 in Paris. Choose a person who had the most influence on Bigger. I feel that Max had the most influence on Bigger. Max helped Bigger realize what he had done wrong and how that not all white people were out to get the black man. At times Bigger felt that Max was only trying to hurt him but I think that deep down inside, Bigger knew Max was only there to help him. A wave of excited voices swept over the room. Bigger's fingers gripped the arms of ....

.... However some may claim that this is not so and that Macbeth is more ruthless than his wife. “Present fears are less than horrible imaginings. My thought, whose murder is yet but fantastical, shakes so that my single state of man that function is smoldered I surmise and nothing is but what is not.” Macbeth as you can see is thinking about the witches’ prophecy of him becoming king. Macbeth knows that Duncan must be killed if he wants to acquire the throne, and the thought of Duncan’s murder is very disturbing to him. Macbeth desires to become king, but his ambition is halted when he thinks of the consequences that follow if he were to get his wish. However w ....

This article serves as a successful example for inclusion of disabled students in regular classrooms. As a Music Educator for the past 26 years at the Elementary and High School levels I have witnessed firsthand the advantages and disadvantages of including disabled students in the regular music classroom. As a band director, I have had physica ....
