On August 30, 2016, Laura Dimon and Ginger Adams Otis wrote an article for The Daily News under the headline “Protesters gather in NYC to show outrage of skyrocketing EpiPen prices.” The article highlights a controversy that is ongoing as this is typed – the price of potentially life-saving EpiPens has increased fivefold in the decade since Mylan Pharmaceuticals acquired the product.

It is intuitive as well. When prices go up ...

Survival, Resilience, and Redemption” by Laura Hillenbrand

During the US Civil War, the Union’s famous Gen. Sherman once said that war is “all hell.” Many military commanders, as well as the countless victims of warfare, have echoed this sentiment down through the ages. Certainly, warfare reveals humanity to sometimes be far less than humane. The worst characteristics of human kind are often brought to the forefront by the nature of war and its relentless objectives. But as horrible as warfare can be for the average soldier in the trenches fighting next to his comrades, it can be (and often is) even more nightmarish and unimaginably ...

Relationship between language and literary development Literacy development process is a very complex issue because it involves numerous experiences that intricately coincide and complement each other (Antilla, 2013). Literacy development begins at birth as a young baby hears and starts to interpret meaning from the spoken word. Thus a child’s very early experience set the stage for the development of literacy. As children discover and get to know the world around them, they tend to find the ways to connect with their environment and communicate with others. Thereby oral language becomes the foundation for a child’s entry ...

The problem is that a male –centric society doesn’t perceive beautiful women as full members of a society. Ann Cahill proclaims that beauty is a problem for the feminist theory. The author states that «feminists have often encouraged women to throw off the demands of beauty to gain social and political equality.» The idea of «male gaze» means that people change objects –especially women’s bodies – according to their «masculine» standards. In other words, men tend to perceive the beauty without their inner world (Cahill 42-64). For example, a woman makes herselfs beautiful and the ...

The film Blackfish by Gabriela Cowper Thwaite, released in 2013, focused on a captive Orcas by SeaWorld.

Interpreting a text is a process in which one must take into account many details that the author provides or leaves out. Even though many believe that what the text actually says is what is most important, what one cannot actually find there is sometimes more important than what one does actually encounter.

As its title states, a significant portion of the short story is dedicated ...

Love is a sophisticated idea that hardly defined clearly. Every person has his/her own definition of love. Some refer to it as a feeling while others identifies it as principle.

Introduction

Christina Rossetti’s poem, “Goblin Market,” is allegorical in the sense that it is an extended metaphor in which key social fears of the period are expressed. Rossetti sets her characters against the lures of the world, which in this case are represented by the goblin men and their fruit. Children are voyeurs who are always analyzing and watching. Rossetti features two main children characters and contrasts their response to the lures. Against these lures or temptations, Laura succumbs, while Lizzie is headstrong. One may argue that the poet uses character foils to contrast the characters, Lizzie and Laura. ...

Perhaps one of the most crucial and controversial points of difference between Islam and the West, is the extent of religious influence on the private and public lives of people. The concept of ‘a sovereign, democratic nation’ in the West is based on a strict division between church and the state (government). The rationale used for establishing this premise is that religion is entirely a personal matter for individuals; there is no logic in the faith or beliefs that people have, since they cannot be quantified and measured (Asad, 2003: 45). Hence religion, is a volatile and emotional domain, ...

Article Analysis

The cries of the goblin merchants give the story its haunting quality. Lizzie is more sensible than Laura, so she is more protective when it comes to heeding the cries, and she ends up protecting Laura.

Repeating Lizzie’s warnings over and over again provides an “aural lesson” for the reader, as well as for Laura.

There is some disagreement as to whether the nature of the cries is local in context or provides a larger comment about the class war. Rossetti’s poem is somewhere between the sounds of the streets around her and the literary evocations of that city that transform sounds into words. London had a reputation for being filled with a huge array of noises ...

The question of defining one’s gender has long been an issue. Contrary to the modern biological reduction that purports itself to be self-evident, people across the millennia have found different ways of being male or female. As always, art has been one of the greatest ways culture has had to depict this. Particularly, the lead young female characters in two short stories by women authors in the twentieth century will allow the reader to see one precise way of construction of the female gender, and the male one by subtraction. In Alice Munro’s “Boys and Girls” and ...

The rise of industrial capitalism in the nineteenth century completely the changed the face of production in Western Europe it led to a decrease in small scale artisanal and agricultural work and was replaced by much larger factories.

Presentation Outline

With dark red lipstick, a tight lipped lady storms into the office and takes her seat, pushing her bag to the corner she glares at her computer. Her co-workers stand up to inquire, but receive a blunt “I am fine” reply. This contradiction between her nonverbal and verbal language leaves a confusing message for all. Such confusion definitely gives more value to the nonverbal message being communicated to others. Similarly, while giving a presentation in a conference room having the top management of an organization, talking on the subject of downsizing, let suppose a female presenter formally dressed stands up to speak.
