Beast College Essays Samples For Students

Throughout time, people have asked themselves what it means to be human. This has the obvious correlate of how one should lead one’s life. If it does not have intrinsic meaning, as many people started to believe in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, then one is left to one’s own devices to make something out of it. Artists have depicted this in many ways; Henry James’ The Beast in the Jungle and Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot are two masterpieces that discuss the importance of making the most of one’s time on Earth. They ...

Disability as a theme in the film:

Disability is an issue which crops up considerably during the film Beauty and the Beast. The Beast is seen as someone who has a severe disability and this hampers him in turn from achieving a normal life.

The Beast’s disability is also a consistent leitmotif throughout the film as it also demonstrates that ...

According to the Kluckhohns and Strodtbeck’s value orientations (Samovar et al., 2008), people of all cultures deal with five universal questions.

The second approach looks at the poem in an angle of the author’s sentiments. In this paper I will review three poems; Mountain Boomer, Bodacious and Firetread The Last. The three poems have almost similar themes but with ...

In the story, the king’s son who was later called Mister Piggy hears his first and second wives plotting to kill him while asleep. He doesn’t tell anyone about the evil thoughts of his wives but kills them first before they try to kill him. Even when ...

In the wake of the second world war and with the entry into what would come to be known as the “nuclear age”, the world knew that nothing would be the same in the second half of the 20th century. Arguably, nobody felt the dawn of the nuclear age greater than Japan following the devastation and chaos caused by the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings. First-hand accounts of the bombings were frightening; people screaming, fleeing, desperate to find cover, while a blinding light and a sudden blazing heat suddenly filled the air, followed swiftly by an ominous roar, a steady rumble would follow, ...

Freudian Structure of the Mind

According to Sigmund Freud, personality is made up of three structures. The Id is the seat of all human emotions, and is likely to have resided in the limbic region of the brain which is responsible for hunger and fear responses. It is also believed to be responsible for other more complex human emotions such as romantic love. The limbic region is also responsible for controlling the powerful and primitive self-preservation instincts. The Id is impulsive, unreasonable and unrealistic and demands the immediate gratification of all its demands. It is not affected by logic or reality or everyday life.

Introduction:

Losing a loved one is a very painful experience especially when someone is lost through maternal means. As far as culture diversity is concerned, many communities around the world have different expectations when it comes to maternal mortality on whether to lose the baby or the mom. In most communities, they opt for the child to die and the mom to survive while in others, they prefer the baby to survive and lose the mom even though such believers are very minimal around the world. Maternal mortalities of both the mothers and the infants are increasing at a very high level around ...

Short Paper

The short stories of Beauty and the Beast, The Frog King and East of the Sun and West of the Moon share that common theme of the happily ever ending after in marriage between a man who is not physically appealing. Apart from exploring the archetypal relationship of holy matrimony, there's also the relationship between a daughter and her father that is also explored in this story too - where the girl becomes a woman when she begins to look at someone for who they are instead of what they have or look (Hallett & Karasek, 2008).
No matter which ...

The Lord of the flies written by William Golding and Inferno by Dante Alighieri are allegorical books that expound common themes and similitude in the usage of styles. In particular, the common theme that resonates in these two books is the nature of man and the evil that men harbor in their hearts. In essence, the two novels delve to answer the question as to who is the real enemy of humankind. Though the two authors dexterously use different stylistic devices to answer the question, the convergence is that man himself is the worst enemy to each other. According ...

The Colosseum, a structure that is elliptical in shape, was built in the first century CE under the Roman emperor of the Flavian Dynasty which included; Vespasian (69-79 CE), Titus (79-81CE), and Domitian (81-96 AD) (Kuntz 45). History of the Colosseum started after Nero, who was the ruler at that time, became too extravagant. The aftermath was a rebellion by the Jews in Palestine against the Roman rule. After the great fire at Rome, Nero had built an enormous palace for himself, which he called the Golden Palace in AD 64 right in the centre of the city. Thereafter ...

Fear is a relative term, at least from the human perspective. This suggests that humanity has experienced its own sets of fears, depending on the prevailing dangers of a particular physical environment and epoch. In this regard, it has always been common knowledge that survival is an integral part of every species, including the Homo sapiens, and that compromising the sense of safety of animals and humans is most likely to instigate a reaction of fear. As such, it can also be said that fear is a beneficial aspect of existence, given that it triggers reactions of alertness, fighting ...

Dante’s Inferno is replete with symbolism. Inferno is a comprehensive, overarching allegory and Dante uses symbols throughout to explore the different themes such as violence, fraud, evil, God’s justice, immortality and more. Some of the symbols that Dante employs are simple and easy to understand such as the beast Geryon (with the head of a man and the body of a serpent, it symbolizes deceit) while others involve biblical and other classical references (the fall of Satan). Divine Comedy on the whole symbolizes the spiritual quest of man. Dante also uses symbols as an allusion to the sins that men ...

Shooting an Elephant

The essay dwells more about the reasons that led to the shooting of that great beast, rather than dwelling ...

In any story there are only three types of conflict, man versus nature, man versus man, man versus himself. In the case of the 1933 pre-Code Hollywood film King Kong however, it seems that all three were used. A quick synopsis of the film can be described within the two of the most memorable lines of the film itself:
- When the character Carl Denham (portrayed by Robert Armstrong) speaks to the character Jack Driscoll (portrayed by Bruce Cabot) about the latter’s growing infatuation with the heroine Ann Darrow (portrayed by Fay Wray):

When Lewis Carroll composed his poem entitled Jabberwocky, he did so with the intention of writing a nonsensical piece which used such invented words as “manxome” and “uffish.” These fantastical words are used with two intentions in mind: the first is to enhance the reader’s child-like state of mind in order to encourage a full comprehension of the poem’s symbolism, whilst secondly it is used to mask the poem’s true meaning, for reasons that are only clear to the poet himself. Symbolism, however, plays a key role in the poem and it does, in part, tell the story of a ...

. This essay on Orwell’s work in question will seek to examine the striking theme of guilt and shame as depicted by the author in his writing, as well as the painful, contradictory nature of his own feelings versus actions. Orwell, at the time of writing, was a British policeman in the country of Burma in south east Asia dominated by the rule of the British Empire, and here begins the first contradiction given his subsequent reputation as a crusader against such a political system. The essay will examine three aspects of the essay in relation to guilt and ...

Is there a Western tradition of thinking about romantic love? What are its characteristics? Is it specific to the West? Do you agree with it?
People from different parts of the world think about love differently. People from the West think about romantic love as a matter from the heart. An individual ...

The play Othello composed by William Shakespeare portrays the tragedy of a character whose blind jealousy deprives him of everything he has. Due to its complexity and controversy, Othello was and remains a stumbling point for a lot of critics and researchers. Difficulty in the interpretation of this tragedy is caused by its characters` questionable morals. Moreover, with further analysis one may see that the theme of marital issues and betrayal in this tragedy is supported by another theme of morality and amorality which will determine the actions of not only the main character but that of everyone else. ...

The quest for overachievement is one which has become central to current U.S. culture. Driven by a growing sense of beating peers, parents and children stretch limits to outperform and win. Probably, sports, particularly so called "dangerous sports", represent one most notable area in which (helicopter) parents and children compete to achieve excellence. In pursuing an eternal dream of overachievement, children (self motivated or, more commonly, pushed by parents and coaches) are subject to a host of risks in contacting one another during physical activity, a concern which only highlights growing debate over whether dangerous sports particularly football and ...

The Tempest by William Shakespeare is interestingly simple yet complex in its own way. It has the complete recipe that categorizes it as a true Shakesperian play written during his time, with its magical theme as opposed to what ‘s real, the conflict between a father and his dhild, or between the old and the new, and the most apparent struggle for power. The play, with its constant reference to power and culture, appears to be an elucidation on European colonization. There were so much indication in the text, such as the arrival of Prospero and his daughter, Miranda, ...

Psychological development theories divide the development of a child to an adult into stages which carry distinctive characteristics. These theories study all areas of growth in a child till adulthood from the social and biological part to the emotion and cognitive processes (Ezhovkina & Ryabova, 2015). Arguably, it is evident that the story of The Lord of the Flies has many psychological, developmental theories that are applicable in real world context. Notably, the theme of bullying and its causes also comes to play. This paper seeks to discuss Ralph character traits about these psychological development theories. For a fact, the ...

Interview on Art and Architecture

Q. How and what kind of painting techniques do you use in your art?
A. This art is presented in an abstract fashion. It is not created with the intention of displaying it in an art gallery but rather as a sendoff for the dead and to appease supernatural beings. All paintings when observed carefully indicate a particular style of making them; this is mainly the hieratic style.
Paintings lean towards a religious aspect, with a lot of them depicting the gods. Figures shown in the picture are made mostly to show the social status of the person who ...

Zora Neale Hurston’s long novel written in a short period of seven weeks is a veritable handbook of social philosophy mouthed by a not-so-literate woman, Janie Crawford. Janie had switched her surname to Killicks, Starks and Woods after the three husbands she had. It is little wonder that she was playfully called “Alphabet” by her childhood friends as she had many names at once even then. Her lack of learning is eventually her wisdom. Her communion with Nature was her true learning, the primordial learning of every sensitive being. She undergoes a thorough transformation as she travels to ...

Instincts versus Choice

Freedom is a very contradictory and multi-layered concept. For some, it accounts for money, for others it means not being dependent on anyone, while others still interpret it as human rights to express oneself as s/he pleases. States produce and standardize legal documents so that citizens are granted all liberties; spiritual and philosophical activists develop teachings so as to provide their followers with the possibility of spiritual freedom; doctors and scientists push the boundaries of the possible, so that humanity can make greater strides in the medical frontier. However, a modern human being is constantly spinning in a whirlpool ...

The Book of Revelation has yielded different interpretive possibilities for just about as long as there have been theologians around to read and explain it. This is a book that is filled with mysteries, whether it is the identity of the four apocalyptic horsemen who are supposed to usher in the judgment of God, the timing of the rising of people from the dead for that judgment, and whether Jesus Christ returns before the tribulation of the believers or after -- or whether the 1,000-year reign that the book discusses is literal or figurative in nature.
After all, ...

Introduction

The Taming of the Shrew is one of the Shakespearean plays that are not traditionally taught in English courses. However, its lively plot and interesting characters make for a remarkable introduction to the Bard. This is because the story is mostly about various “courting” couples, which can be a lively topic as it elicits the timeless battle between the sexes. However, there are other themes and meanings which are explored in the play. The induction scene is an important part of this play because it shows how important different senses, particularly sight, are to humans. The induction scene begins with a drunken ...

Gothic literature is often defined by a combination of romanticism and the macabre; conflating the feelings of darkness, isolation and ostentatiousness are part and parcel of what makes that genre so compelling. Female Gothic stories focus those elements particularly on the plight of women, who suffered through an especially systemic submission and oppression during the 18th and 19th centuries. Women in Female Gothic stories are often isolated, set apart from other people, and constantly have their desires, needs and fears downplayed or dismissed by their male counterparts. This leads to a tremendous level of anxiety and tension within them, as a direct ...

Invisible Men Controlled by Women:

The 2011 movie Beastly is a contemporary retelling of the classic fairytale “The Beauty and the Beast”. It is about a vein and arrogant young man, that is turned into hideous-looking creature by a witch, with a spell that can only be undone if he gets someone to love him within a defined period of time. Due to the fact that fairy tales are some of the first encounters that children have with fictional stories, many theorists suggest that these strongly influence the way people in which perceive the world at the beginning of their life, and, unless it is changed, afterwards. Because of ...

An abstract image is something, frequently a question, that stands for a critical notion or arrangement of plans. Frequently an image is significant of the qualities of the characters. In Beowulf, a portion of the most vital images are Hrothgar's mead-corridor, Grendel's hole, Grendel's arm and head, and the mythical beast's fortune trove.
Typically, Heorot speaks to the accomplishments of the Scyldings, particularly Hrothgar, and their level of progress. It is a position of light, warmth, and delight, diverged from Grendel's horrible marsh and in addition the dim and icy of winters in Scandinavia. In Heorot, Hrothgar praises his triumphs and prizes ...

The American Dream states that basically anyone can achieve anything if they work hard enough, thus obtaining freedom and ensuring upward mobility for the next generation. Every person who is thinking about America has the American Dream stamped in their minds, thanks to mainstream media and pop culture. But, is the American Dream just a fantasy, an unfulfillable promise, a utopia for those who have lost hope and are wanting a better life for themselves?
Arthur Miller, in his 1949 play "Death of a Salesman", portrays an average American, a man called Willy Loman. Willy is depressed, recently suffered a car accident and wants ...

Greek mythology and culture are important element of the development of every culture. Ancient Greeks always thought that Gods are the reflection of our inner conflicts and turmoil.

First, I would like to analyze the story about Zeus and Typhon. According to the ...

INTRODUCTION

If you have ever watched a movie on “mute,” then you know that movies, television, or web series are rather underwhelming without sound. Could you imagine “Star Wars” without its anthem coinciding with the rolling credits? Would anyone have been interested in Norman Bates without the score that identified the presence of his mother? Would Indiana Jones be more thrilling if he ran through hidden caverns over scored by a sad violin? Would the sweeping underwater scenes of the wreckage of the Titanic have been as haunting without the backdrop of a soft, sorrowful ballad accompanying the long lost images? The answer ...

English:

Derek Walcott’s “A Far Cry from Africa” addresses the theme of split identity and, more specifically, the struggle coming from a loyalty to both sides. Through literary devices such as imagery, form and metaphor, the poet conveys his theme through a memorable and pensive poem.
The title of the poem, “A Far Cry,” is an expression for something which is impossible. This seems to imply two things within the context of the poem. The first is that, for him, St Lucia is a long way and is very different from his native Africa. Furthermore, he seems to be saying that ...

July 17
Theme of Isolation and Loneliness
The themes of isolation and loneliness are illustrated in Beowulf through Grendel’s character. Grendel felt excluded and isolated from the humans because he was living alone with his mother and this made him feel that he does not belong to the community.
