OLIVER TWIST SUMMARY
Number of words: 333 - Number of pages: 2

.... then he will surely miss most of the important aspects of the book. I do not think Orwell took into account his audience when he wrote this book. He must have known that not everyone who would read his great work of literature would not know well the complete history of the Russian Revolution. Taking this idea into account, I think he could have somehow made it possible for a person who did not know about the Russian revolution to be able to understand the main purpose of the writing. Not many people can just automatically realize that he is warning about the dangers of a totalitaria .....

Epics The Aeneid And Metamorphoses: A Comparison
Number of words: 1001 - Number of pages: 4

.... phrases like "lonely night" and "phantom kingdom". Rome did indeed have difficulties in its infancy; in the 7th and 6th centuries BCE it was ruled by Etruscan kings and was only "... a little hill town." (Short Histories, p20) Lines 390 through 549 in The Aeneid deal with the crossing of the River Styx. This represents a great transition period in Rome. It symbolizes the founding of the Republic.

.... to kill everyone who was involved in the case if it were to be moved. In this essay the bias and racism in both trials are going to be clarified and compared to each other.

Heart Of Darkness 2
Number of words: 756 - Number of pages: 3

.... It was told because he had a notion it would somehow be of help to Mr. Kurtz. The lie was to allow the brick maker to think he had more influence in the company than he actually had. This lie would help Kurtz in two ways. Firstly it would help Marlow to get the rivets he needed to fix the boat, and that would provide Kurtz with a means of communication, or a way out of the jungle. Secondly it would provide Kurtz with an ally who was perceived as influential. Marlow knew that others were jealous of the success of Mr. Kurtz. Some saw him as the next "Director of the .....

The Role Of Women In Sir Gaiwa
Number of words: 5377 - Number of pages: 20

.... of life. It is easy to read _Sir Gawain and the Green Knight_ as a romantic celebration of chivalry, but Ruth Hamilton believes that "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight contains a more wide-ranging, more serious criticism of chivalry than has heretofore been noticed" (113). Specifically, she feels that the poet is showing Gawain's reliance on chivalry's outside form and substance at the expense of the original values of the Christian religion from which it sprang. As she shows, "the first order of knights were monastic ones, who took vows of poverty, obedience, and chastity. The first duties t .....

.... suffering (4) in such a way that it brings to our minds our own forgotten and repressed sorrows as well as those of our kin and humanity (5) releasing us with some sense (a) that suffering is universal- not a mere accident in our experience, (b) that courage and endurance in suffering or nobility in despair are admirable- not ridiculous- and usually also ( c) that fates worse than our own can be experienced as exhilarating Kaufmann=s definition precludes seeing the notion of tragedy through a wider lens.

Persuasion In Patrick Henry's Speech To The Virginia Convention
Number of words: 814 - Number of pages: 3

.... at the Virginia Convention, Henry had to provide substantial proof endorsing his position. While an appeal to their emotions would rouse them against the British for the moment, emotions are short-lived and their endurance would depend on proof. Henry asks, "are fleets and armies necessary to a work of love and reconciliation?" "what means this martial array, if its purpose be not to force us to submission?" By using the literary device of the rhetorical question, Henry attempts to pull his audience into his speech and show how obvious the need for the colonists to arm themselves again .....

Knowledge

.... solution to all problems. Another source of is entertainment, such as in television, movies, books, or even music. Certain types of entertainment can even be education. For example, television shows such as “20/20” or “DateLine” are both very informative shows, but interesting enough to entertain the public. Entertainment can be tricky, though. The media can convince us, even brainwash us, to believe certain truths that may not be accurate. The television shows we watch and the music that we listen to are huge daily influences on our lives. They help shape the way we think, w .....
