Julius Caesar As A Tragic Hero
... himself look noble to the commoners. Casca said, “Why there was a crown offered to him;...people fell a-shouting” (I,ii,221-223). Next, To show how noble and great Caesar was, the Romans would stand along the street sides to watch him pass by. “Madam not yet, I go to take my stand; /To see him pass on to the Capitol,” said the soothsayer (II,iv,25-26). Finally, Caesar had the greatest rank possible as he would have been crowned king if it wasn’t for the conspiracy’s plot. As Casca said, “Indeed they say senators tomorrow; /Mean to establish Caesar as king...” (I,iii,87-88).
Shakespeare illustrated Caesar as a tragic hero by showing that he was a historical fi ...

Cause And Effect Of Speeding
... The wait is long, and the company
can be frightening. Once you plead your case, you generally end up paying
the fine. This only leads to another line, and another wait. This has to be
the most unpleasant part of a speeding ticket.
In addition, paying for traffic school is also a disagreeable experience.
If you waited to see the judge, you may be on your way after paying the
fine. If the judge is kind, and offers a traffic school option, the
unpleasantness continues. Usually the traffic school is no where near to
the courthouse, which causes you to search to find the it. The great
experience of paying is close at hand after locating the school. You must
endure the n ...

The Lonely Soul Of Dasein
... the context of relationships with Others, but this seems to be more important as a question of true existence, true realization of the authentic Self.
I argue that the soul, the spirit, the essence of Dasein must be explained as well as the phenomena of existence in order to clarify the question “What does it mean to be (Dasein)?” Through the soul, Dasein may bridge the gaps of loneliness that occur in the solitude of single existence amongst Others. Psychology and morality provide excellent headquarters from which to launch this campaign in search of the soul of Dasein…How can one’s soul exhibit both concernful solicitude and care while ex ...

Winter Oak - Yuri Nagibin
... "’Good morning Anna Vasilyevna!’ Frolov raised his fur hat above his solid, close-cropped head. ‘what are you doing! Put it back on it’s freezing!’ Frolov probably wanted to pull his fur over his eyes himself…" (Nagibin 58). Anna feels as though she is high and mighty, and will not even acknowledge Frolov’s attempt of respect towards her. There were very powerful images present in the forest, such as the gigantic winter oak. The image of Savushkin standing in front of the Winter Oak, in utter awe of its splendor and Anna Vasilyevna realizing the beauty of the winter oak appeals to the sight, because it is easy to picture in our minds.

Round Characters In Romeo And
... Shuts up his windows, locks fair daylight out,/ And makes himself an artificial night” (Act One, scene two, lines 137 to 139). Romeo gets over Rosaline when he sees Juliet at the ball at Lord Capulet’s house. Obviously, Romeo’s inability to find true love forces him to become lovesick.
Another personality trait that Romeo demonstrates in the play is being impulsive. One of the parts where this personality trait is shown is in the Capulet’s orchard when Romeo and Juliet set the wedding date. Acting too quickly, they plan it for the next day. Juliet says, “...Thy purpose marriage, send me word tomorrow,/ By one that I’ll ...

Brave New World
... ethics and morals. Sexual promiscuity appears to be a much more frequent activity now then it was in the Thirties. Critics blame "...the advent of the pill for declining morality and indiscriminate sexual activity." Many believe that each time medicine reduces the risk of unwanted diseases and pregnancies, society, on the whole, will increase its sexual activity. Huxley's prediction of promiscuity is based on his iron law of sexuality: "As political and economic freedom diminishes, sexual freedom tends compensatingly to increase." A current example of Huxley's belief is China. China is the last remaining communist regime, it also suffers from having one fifth of t ...

... displays Alex’s villainous disposition, which causes the reader to hate and resent him. Through the aid of the State’s treatment Alex is reformed, at which point Burgess allows the reader to determine and develop an opinion of whether this treatment is morally acceptable or not. In the end however it is obvious that Alex has become a true “Clockwork Orange’ and despite the previous opinion of the reader, Burgess reveals the outcome in a way that causes a sense of relief and is pleased to see Alex back to ‘normal’.
It is fascinating to consider that Burgess may have written A Clockwork Orange as a prophetic view of warning to future societies. He was a peacef ...

People's Behavior And The Affect Of Social Situations
... so I think the experiment wasn't unethical. I never would've expected this to happen. I thought the students would just wait the time out and leave when it was over. I had no clue the experiment would have such an affect on them. This experiment was useful in that it showed people that the environment does have an impact on behavior. It was also realistic, because there have been cases of mental illness in jails and things like this have happened in real life.
The second experiment was the ROTC Experiment. In this experiment, two groups of people were put in a flight simulator after being given an eye exam, and being exposed to different situations. The first ...
