The first word that catches the readers’ attention is ‘keep’ in the first sentence of the extract 2:8-11. The word ‘keep’ is relatively new and could not be present in the extract in its current form. Moreover, it is hard to understand the meaning of the word in the sentence, since it is linked with the noun ‘law’. What did the translator mean by ‘keeping the ...

In his essay entitled “The Decay of Laying”, author Oscar Wilde wrote that “life imitates art far more than art imitates life” (Wilde, 1891). One of the biggest questions that Wilde’s quote created was whether he was right, and life truly does imitate art. Regardless of whether he is accurate or not, art, including television, is often studied to provide understanding of how life was perceived at the point in time when the art was produced. This essay will analyze five episodes of a family situational comedy (sitcom) from the 1950s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s to provide ...

Introduction

The negative or positive experiences of early childhood play a very significant role in the development of the social and emotional behavior of an individual.

This is because the social and emotional development of an individual are influenced by several factors that they encounter during their major stages of growth in their lifespan (McClelland, Ponitz, Messersmith, & Tominey, 2010, p. 35).

IDENTIFY AND DISCUSS THE PREDOMINANT THEMES OF ROMEO AND JULIET

Introduction Kenneth Branagh’s, 2016 play, presents Romeo & Juliet in a brilliantly new and expressionistic manner. The play starts with an assumption that live cannot exist without hate, and according to the many critics this indeed does not signify two opposites but the notion becomes merely depicted as two sides of a coin (Rowe, 2008). The opposite of this peculiar union is exactly the opposite of love and hatred, which is known as indifference. Indifference perhaps is the theme less explored in the play since Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet comes with the notion of fate and its tragically beautiful ...

Introduction

Love is the most common and the most uncommon thing ever. The first epithet is characteristic for love, as this thing happens (or at least is supposed to happen) in everyone’s life regardless of life, whereas the word “uncommon” is natural for love as well, as it is as unique in every life as possible. Therefore, stories of Kalidasa and Chretien de Troyes are read with lightness; however the times of their creation have been covered with dust for many long years. Such lightness can be explained with the mere fact that authors touch such eternal topics, which ...

In the contemporary society, living a moral Christian life is difficult, particularly because of the different messages that people receive from various sources, and as a result of the distancing between man and religion. In the context of a chaotic, rushed and often confusing lifestyle, spirituality often loses grounds in favor of practical concerns. Besides, the globalization of today’s developed societies means that people often live in diverse and non-traditional families, that communities become less homogenous and various religions can be found within the same families and communities. In this context, the Christian believer often finds that the ...

It is touching for me, the representative of pampering generation and frankness in the relationship between men and women, invisible thread between Emma and her chosen one held in the exciting voltage. Jane Austen is ...

Literature review: Nora Helmer in the play Dollhouse by Henrik Ibsen

Nora Helmer is one if not the most interesting character in the three-act play prose written by the great writer Henrik Ibsen. Many of the literally critics me included argue that such an immature, incredibly ignorant person can never have attained the kind of understanding or the revolutionary, amazing qualities that are represented by Nora by the time she leaves her home. While analyzing the play I noticed the creative and careful construction of the character Nora take place in the play. Ibsen has created Nora in such a way that her far sightedness and show of independence can ...

The research is intended to bring an understanding of God’s power and ...

The master craftsman, William Shakespeare, in his Othello and The Winter’s Tale portrays some curious facets of femininity, maybe deliberately or not. Desdemona in Othello is a Venetian beauty with astute and resolute individuality, while Hermione in The Winter’s Tale is mysterious and majestic. When we take the reality aspect, the former is more realistic and true to life, which has implications even in this modern present. The latter is to an extent unreal, and somewhat fantasy. Character is everything in Shakespeare’s plays; the works have no existence apart from the characters. In Shakespeare’s plays, ...

Othello, the 1603 masterpiece of the master playwright William Shakespeare is more psychological than artistic, derived from Donald Metzer’s “Concerning the Stupidity of Evil”. Dr. Johnson says that his [Shakespeare’s] drama is the mirror of life; that he who has mazed his imagination, in following the phantoms which other writers raise up before him, may here be cured of his delirious ecstasies, by reading human sentiments in human language, by scenes from which a hermit may estimate the transactions of the world, and a confessor predict the progress of the passions (Johnson. p. 14). Shakespeare portrayed life ...

“If we Americans are to learn from our mistakes, from the flailing, ineffective way we, as a nation conducted the war on terror after the attacks of 9/11, and from the way we have failed to make our case to the great moderate mass of peace-loving people at the heart of the Muslim world, we need to listen to Greg Mortenson.” (David Oliver Relin, “Three Cups of Tea,” p.5) Do we? Why/why not? To what extent can individuals make a difference in international relations? When Greg Mortenson partook a flight to an unknown destination in the heart of the ...

“Loving someone is different from being “in love” with them.” It is true that loving someone is different from being “in love” with them. Some people think that the two mean the similar thing, but this is not the case. As a matter of fact, there are some differences between loving someone and being “in love” with them. First of all, when we love an individual we need him/her to be around us most of the time. In other words, we usually want to be with the people we love more than anything else, and we can do anything ...

Technological advancements in the last century have resulted in a focal paradigm shift in terms of healthcare from the traditional service-oriented methodologies to the technological care-oriented models. Technology has played a critical role in ensuring that life has been prolonged with the intentions of having patients emerge with desirable outcomes and satisfaction.

The major challenge however that continues to face many patients is whether healthcare settings are in a position to ...

Women aren’t that dissimilar from men, although they face different biological, cultural and social pressure, some pragmatic women concede and act in response well to such pressures.

Therefore, in this paper, I will discuss the role of women and the development of female character in a particular setting as portrayed by Nakamoto Takako short story The Red. In her work, Nakamoto begins by describing a picture of an unfortunate family that relies on Shige wife to Kanenari for survival. The writer's ...

Falling in love can be just as powerful as sniffing a line of cocaine. In fact, studies have shown that the effect cocaine has on the brain sometimes provokes similar chemical reactions as those caused by the feeling of being in love. However, despite love sometimes being classified as a natural stimulant, it could also be harmful to human health in certain situations. And given such similarities, the neural enhancement of both these stimulants should be taken both cautiously and seriously. In the scientific and common literature, love is almost always regarded as being a benefit to a person's ...

Tokubei and Ohatsu’s story is inspirational in its portrayal of the extent lovers will go to for the accomplishment of their love. However, although inspirational in nature, their actions and motivations are illogical if viewed in a sense of self-preservation.

Love preceded reason in their motivation, leading to them having thought of no other options for salvation aside from death. Tokubei, had to face the choice of loving and marrying a woman of ...

If the political candidates in the current electoral fray were to be believed, especially from those on the right, the country is in the throes of an immigrant and religious takeover. All the social evils of the country are attributed to the outsiders. The lack of jobs, security and growth are all blames on the ‘others’. If we were to take their words to be the truth and also be swayed by our own biases we would end up being narrow minded individuals filled with hatred for things and people about whom we do not really know much about. ...

The existence of hell is a claim that conservative Christians (and other religions) assert to instill the notion that sinners would languish from eternal fire and be punished for all the immoral acts that that they have committed. In reality, the existence of hell remains questionable as several arguments about the evil and the eternal fire are inconsistent and lacks clear evidence to prove such. Even theologians and religious people continue to debate on the existence of evil and hell because of the contradictions on the notion of God’s true attributes. Although opposing views state that hell is ...

The main theme of ‘To His Coy Mistress’ by Andrew Marvell is known by the Latin phrase ‘Carpe diem.’ This means ‘Seize the day’; in other words, live life to the full now, because life is short and tomorrow we may be dead. It was a very common theme for poets to write about in the 16th and 17th centuries, perhaps because life and death were more unpredictable, life expectancy was shorter and medical knowledge very primitive. Another notable feature of this poem is its syllogistic structure: it is a carefully constructed argument. The first verse paragraph presents one possible scenario; ...
