The Importance Of Literature Vs. Science
... experience, and gives pleasure to the few who love
it.
Literature is just as varied and expansive as Science is. There are
hundreds of styles, millions of authors, and thousands of languages which make
up literature. Instead of different fields, as in science, there are different
genres. Literature is often backed up by research or first hand information,
but can also be fanciful flights of the imagination. They are similar to the
research, observation, and hypothesis found in science. Experiments can be
performed in both. A scientist could ask what if, and logically and
scientifically follow his what if through. A writer could ask the same and use

A Show About Nothing
... and combines them to create something realistic. Nothingness and reality give the author the reasons to believe that it is the best comedy ever.
When people consider Seinfeld as a “show about nothing”. It could be humorous that “nothingness” can provide such an interesting topic for the comedies of life. In life people care about details and worry about trouble, the little nothings made are soon forgotten. Thus, these “nothingnesses” are actually fragments of out real life. Seinfeld gathers the nothingness into a show, and it spreads out the idea that everything in the show that actually happens all around us. For example, losing the car in a parking g ...

The same murderous impulse appears when his secret dread of the delicatessen robbery impels him to commit a vicious assault on his friend Gus. Bigger commits both of the brutal murders not in rage or anger, but as a reaction to fear. His typical fear stems from being caught in the act of doing something socially unacceptable and being the subject of punishment. Although he later admits to Max that Mary Dalton's behavior toward him made him hate her, it is not that hate which causes him to smother her to death, but a feeble attempt to evade the detection of her mother. The fear of being caught wit ...

Analytical Essay On The Grass
... she sternly tells Collin's father, Eugene, " I'll expect him this afternoon!" The filmmaker uses dark clothes, hard wavy hair and a heavy stamp to highlight Verena's character. She maintains an outwards appearance of control and decency. Further more, Verena's house is designed to convey her power and authority over the other characters. The wall paper is a vertical stripe to convey a prison like feeling and the colours are green and gold, the colour of money. As Collin puts it in the film, " She was the richest person in town... and it did not make her an easy woman." Being the richest person, she has considerable power over the other characters in the small t ...
