Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye
Number of words: 697 - Number of pages: 3.... of about thirty different characters; which I still have stored in my
room. I don't think I could ever get rid of them. Also, each Transformer came
with a stat card on the back of the box he was sold in that described his
various skills and attributes. I used to always cut these stat cards from the
back of the boxes, and tape them onto large sheets; which I hung on my bedroom
wall. Along with the action figures, I also had Transformer books and
Transformer bedsheets. I couldn't get enough of the Transformers. I saw about
every episode, and I knew about everything there was to know about th .....

Julius Caesar
Number of words: 744 - Number of pages: 3.... of Caesar's impending death. Although sooth-sayers are looked
upon by many as insane out of touch lower classmen, a good deal of them,
obviously including the sayer Caesar encountered, are indeed right on the
mark. Since they lack any formal office or shop, and they predict
forthcomings without fee, one can see quite easily why citizens would
distrust their predictions. Superstition, in general elements such as the
Feast of Lupercal, as well as on a personal level such as with the sooth-
sayers, is an important factor in determining the events and the outcome of
Julius Caesar, a significa .....

Antigone: Following Her Beliefs
Number of words: 597 - Number of pages: 3.... but Antigone is not going to be killed easily.

Ansel Adams' Moon And Half Dome
Number of words: 693 - Number of pages: 3.... of insignificance. Another thing that gives the viewer the feeling that Half Dome is massive is the size of the moon in relation to the rock. Although it is actually small in the Earth's sky, the moon always has the influence of being great, and anything that dwarfs it can become ominous. The black and white of the photograph also assists in giving the viewer the impression that Half Dome is enormous. The darkness of the sky draws the eye to it because among the vast blackness the moon is oddly white and somewhat blurred in comparison to the detail of the rest of the photograph. A blurred ob .....

Romeo And Juliet: Love And Their Ends
Number of words: 880 - Number of pages: 4.... his own death, he decides to set off for the party only to see Rosaline. This is ironic because he feels that he will die but he goes to the party anyway, saying,
“I fear, too early. For my mind misgives
Some consequence, yet hanging in the stars,
Shall bitterly begin his fearful date
With this night’s revels, and expire the term
Of a despised life closed in my breast
By some vile forfeit of untimely death
But He that hat the steerage of my course
Direct my sail! On, lusty gentlemen.” (I, v, Lines 82-89)
However, when he reaches the party, his love for Rosaline vanishes and Rom .....

Macbeth: The Use Of The Classical Tragic Mold In Character Development
Number of words: 674 - Number of pages: 3.... his
manhood, to commit the dastardly crime. When he finally murders Duncan, the
problem comes to closure. But, even long before then, the next step in the
mold had begun: the descent into the abyss.
The "decent into the abyss" is the second step in the Classical
Tragic Mold. It is started with Macbeth's second soliloquy. This is after
Macbeth hears from Duncan that Malcolm was to be named the Prince of
Cumberland. "The Prince of Cumberland! That is a step on which I must fall
down, or else o'erleap, for in my way it lies ... Let not light see my
black and deep desires." (Shakespeare, 281). .....

"All I Know Is What I Read In The Papers" - Will Rogers
Number of words: 1818 - Number of pages: 7.... product (candidate) in a sale
(campaign) is only available a few hours on one day".(2)
The main goal one hopes to achieve by advertising something is to make
it marketable so people will purchase it. Since what a politician hopes to
ultimately do is persuade people to vote for, or buy, their political platform,
they would be foolish to not take advantage of the captive and passive audience
of the advertising mass media. Unfortunately politicians and their management
take advantage of this medium to manipulate voters' choices. Two cases of
advertising manipulation on voters was du .....

Oedipus: Fates
Number of words: 1421 - Number of pages: 6.... the principle of determinism, this outright contention to divine
mandate is blasphemous and considered sin. This ideal itself, and the whole
concept of determinism, is quite common in the workings of Greek and Classical
literature. A manifest example of this was the infamous Oedipus of The Theban
Plays, a man who tried to defy fate, and therefore sinned.
The logic of Oedipus' transgression is actually quite obvious, and
Oedipus' father, King Laius, also has an analogous methodology and transgression.
They both had unfortunate destinies: Laius was destined to be killed by his own
son, and .....

The Crucible: The Witchcraft Hysteria
Number of words: 774 - Number of pages: 3.... in a order that they believe it will kill
Proctor's wife. Rev. Parris, Abigail's uncle, sees this and reports it. When
Abigail is questioned about this, she denies everything and doesn't tell the
truth about what really happened. The news of her and the other girl's strange
actions gets around and the hysteria starts. Without Abigail's superstition,
and her fear or telling the truth, I think the events in The Crucible wouldn't
have gotten as serious as they did or even started.
John Proctor was another catalyst to the witch hysteria in Salem. John
Proctor has an affair with Abigail, but .....

The Mikado: Criticism The English Society And Beliefs

For example: KO-KO (Lord High Executioner of Titipu) is engaged to YUM-YUM (Ward of KO-KO). Even YUM-YUM doesn't like KO-KO, she can't refuse him because of in Japan girls do not arrive at years of discretion until they are fifty- from seventeen to forty-nine are considered years of indiscretion (Gilbert, 1885). Usually, people don't marry to their own daughters, but the English aristocrats do- they only allow to marry their own family members enable them to keep their pure blood relation, that is English sentimentali .....
