.... and apologetic tone, she talks about the Great Writer Bartas, admiring his works, and sarcastically admitting that she will never be as talented as he is: “A Bartas can do what a Bartas will / But simple I according to my skill”(stanza 2, lines 11-12). The sarcasm in these lines cause the typical reader of the poem to reconsider that perhaps women are not as bad as Bradstreet portrays them to be, exactly the thought she has schemed for the reader to think. Continuing, Bradstreet mentions regret for her lack of skill, in which she laments the fact that “A weak or wounded brain .....

In my opinion, this means that marriage improves a wom .....

Achilles And Socrates
Number of words: 1249 - Number of pages: 5

.... but there was one thing that would have been worse for Achilles: dying without glory. As a result, becoming a hero means to either kill or be killed in the pursuit for honor and glory. In order to conform to the ideals of society, Achilles becomes a tragic figure, and ultimately dies to uphold his heroic ideals. Achilles consistently reflects his overwhelming tragic flaw of pride, throughout The Iliad. His choice to not fight for the Achaians resulted in his and Patroklus' death. Achilles freely accepted this fate. Although, his decision to kill Hector and to mutilate his body drasti .....
