Japanese writing uses both Kanji and Kana. Kana includes both Hiragana and Katakana alphabets. A long time ago, there was no alphabet in Japan, so the characters for writing were borrowed from neighboring China. As ancient China was then ruled by the Han (Kan) Dynasty, all the characters were called Kanji and the Chinese writing is called Kanbun. Because kanji has many strokes, it takes a very long time to write and to memorize. Thus, the Japanese invented the Hiragana and Katakana. Women used the Hiragana alphabet in creating their letters and diaries. An example of the literature written in ...

The Gothic genre of literature is a fascinating one, ostensibly drawing upon the fears of its era (mostly Victorian England) to tell tales of the grotesque and the supernatural. These tales in particular often focus on unconventional protagonists, the role of gender in relationships, and the violence that comes from crime, isolation, and alienation. There are many subgenres of Gothic fiction, one of the most prominent being Southern Gothic – Gothic tales that take place entirely in the American South. While both genres enjoy similar styles and concerns, their overall themes and applications deal with anxieties specific to their period; while ...

- Introduction
When literature is translated onto a stage, it becomes a play; it takes on a facet of reality that merely reading the words does not bring to the reader. Not every story translates perfectly into the medium of the play; plays have to have a lot of interaction between characters and environments to translate properly into theatre. Although there are certainly plays where not much happens, these plays are few and far between; most plays focus on the relationships between characters and their environments-- including the other characters that are present in the play.
In theatre, the actors are ...

Religion and spirituality continue to be unrecognized as effective strategies for coping against tragedies and life pressures and as essential factors in self-protection and psycho-emotional resiliency (Bryan-Davis, Austria, Kawahara & Willis, 2014).

This paper explores the influences of religion and spirituality on women’s wellbeing, the few specific forms of nontraditional spirituality (such as Astrology, Hinduism, Gnosticism, Yoga, and Meditation), the seven markers of spiritual wellness according to Pazzino (2014), my personal definition of spirituality, my personal spiritual wellness self-assessment, and ...

INTRODUCTION

Song of Solomon is one of the books that have been mistaken by most bible readers who interpret it differently from its initial intended revelation. Song of Solomon is a book that speaks of true and pure love that a married couple shows to each another. Most people take it literally to show the blossoming love life between Solomon and the queen of Sheba. Even though that was the context that Solomon used to write the scripture, it has a very different meaning that relates to the love that Christ has for the church, his bride. In this research paper, we shall ...

Introduction

One of the approaches in literary analysis involves a closet reading of texts. Essentially, a close reading involves a thorough analysis of texts towards the goal of scrutinizing all details that relate the connotative and denotative meaning of various literary works.

Texts become independent in that its significance and value lay in the content or more specifically the choice of words and the arrangement of these words in literature.

Language and Literature is always considered as a gateway through the style and ethics of a period and society. Mediaeval culture is a rich epoch to be evaluated in the light of this consideration.

Verbal images related to the themes of love and jealousy in the later tragedies, "Othello" and "Antony and Cleopatra" help to understand the psychology of the characters, to penetrate into the patterns of these powerful passions. These images are very different from the metaphorical style in the early tragedy "Romeo and Juliet" – where they transmit power to suddenly erupted spontaneous feeling, which seems something sacred to the heroes. Romeo’s first words addressed to Juliet, express awe in this metaphor:

If I profane with my unworthiest hand

This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
Juliet responds, ...

Kinship is arguably the most complicated avenue of human sociology currently known to man. This is because kinship systems transcend general knowledge and even delve more into a cultural and even spiritual realm. Kinship is by all means a contentious issue in any culture currently in the world. The interesting thing about kinship systems all over the world is that they tend to dictate the role and behavior of every member of the kinship. Every individual therefore has a role to play and the acceptability of that individual depends greatly on the level of perfection to which the individual performs their predetermined ...

According to White (2004); several scholars have said that Plato’s Symposium was able to get to the summit because of Diotima’s love due to her thoughtful and great admiration of beauty. However, this is not so. He attributes this to the ability of the philosopher to introduce the true virtue and its eternal existence. The author further argues that the virtue that has been brought into question was not from within the soul but from the outside and that the element of living forever should be based on the work that the philosopher was able to leave ...

In this assignment we would like to present twenty examples of everyday situations and related ethical issues.

The applicability of this book is discussed as a historical snapshot of a momentous time in the gay rights movement, as a writing supporting the fundamentality of the marriage right, and as a possible lesson in the interaction of the judiciary and the legislature that would be useful in ...

The truth cannot be denied that as we get deeper in a relationship, we tend to neglect the reality that the other person can misunderstand us in some situations. It ...

Introduction

In this paper, I would like to introduce Sarah, a 15-year-old girl, mid-adolescent, 9th grader, who seems to have a rather normal life on the surface, but is definitely in need of help if one examines closely. One of the attributes that is alarming is that she is extremely school phobic, which is perhaps understandable for a first grader, but unusual and wrong for a somewhat grown-up 9th grader.
Sarah is a high school girl studying in a co-ed high school in her town. She had to take a remedial course because of her struggles with school work. She has a distant dream of going to ...

The Importance of Being Earnest, a play by Oscar Wilde, is often considered a classic, and ahead of its time in terms of social commentary. The play, a comedy of errors in which people put on fictitious personalities to get what they want, touches on the triviality of Victorian culture and the institution of marriage, among other things. Wilde's work delights in its ravaging of the continental lifestyle that many rich people in the Victorian era experienced, the play does not reach to the point of moralizing, or providing solutions or lessons to be learned from the work. Instead, the play is ...

On love

Love seems to have two aspects. There is such a thing as romantic love that spontaneously springs from a person’s inner depths. It is an attraction that one could have to particular person. As a result, one is willing to do anything for that person. One would only like to see that other person truly happy.
On the other hand, there is another form of love. I would like to call it parental love. It is the kind of love that parents have for their children and that siblings have for each other. As with romantic love, the objective of ...

- The Bigamist
As the American middle class of the 1950’s went, The Bigamist (Ida Lupino, 1953) is one of the few movies that typify the post war middle class sensibility in the country.

It is often said that “Laziness is the Devil’s workshop”. This may hold true to the American middle class in general, though in the context of The Bigamist, one ...

Bond and Lien Claims

Pros of lien claims vs. bond claims
A lien claim is formulated by the law of state in order to secure compensation for materials, services or labor used to build or to improve a real property. The main reason behind this law is the reluctance associated with the property owners, to compensate for construction in advance.

The law supports construction and development via giving a means, through which employees, as well as other contractors conducting work with ...

In dual-career marriage, both partners have occupational careers that they pursue. These types of marriages are rare to find and differs from dual-earner marriages where only one partner has formal employment. Studies have shown that women are fond of undertaking double work, combining workplace responsibilities with domestic work. Having a dual-career marriage makes partners face a load overload while trying to cope with different strategies to improve their marriage. Couples should possess relational coping resources that include fantastic behaviors, cooperation in times of negotiation, and trust between them (Marshall, 1998). Researchers have tried to study the behavior of couples engaged in ...

Communication is the key that people communicate with each other, which is also a very important way how do parents educate their children.

As shocking as pederasty is in modern times, in ancient Greece, it was a bisexual relationship that had social status, between an adult man and a teenage male. This was the most common during the Classical and Archaic periods of Greek history, and it has been traced back in history to the ritual of initiation – specifically the rituals that took place on Crete that were connected to admission into life in the military and Zeus' religion. Referred to as paiderastia by the Greeks, it was both lauded and reviled in contemporary works of the day. In Iliad and Odyssey, it does ...

Ernest emHe

Hemingway’s novel The Sun Also Rises represents a drunkenness-infused, dissipated, and tragedy-stricken collection of antiheroic characters, adequately deemed the Lost Generation. Their postwar plight for meaning in a desolate wasteland of existence is a futile one, painfully aware of the fact that no baptism would wash away their sins. The psychological structure of these characters is equally marred by their profuse alcoholism and debauchery, and their ultimate tragedy is that the all but subtle myth of the generation they belong to would keep them in a perpetual state of psychological hell.
The aftermath of the World War I challenged all the ...

Writing Portfolio

Reflection

Here it is already, the end of a semester that went by faster than usual this year, I think because I found out how much I enjoy writing. I’ve always been a scribbler. Ever since I was a little kid, just ask my Mom, wait, I don’t really want you to ask my mom. I’m just saying that I started writing practically when I was knee high to a grasshopper – and my mother has saved every scrap and journal. Well, except for the ones she doesn’t know about.

The great thing about this semester is that I learned ...

Realities of Love and Adultery in Christian Courts

Within the Christian world view, much has been discussed about adultery. The Ten Commandments include a direct condemnation--Thou shalt not commit adultery--and indirectly--Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife. However, adultery is common throughout history and throughout society. In the Christian world, although frowned upon by the church, consensual adultery is a common sin amongst Christians. In several of the Lais attributed to Marie de France a theme of romantic love and adultery exists. Marie shows us that even in the middle ages, at least at the courts of nobility, there was a reality of adultery. However, like all sins, even if they ...
