All Quiet on the Western Front: War and Authority Corruption
“All Quiet On The Western Front: War and Authority Corruption” It is always easier to say how you would respond to war while looking upon it as an outsider who has seen little outside of movies and pictures. We tell ourselves “I could never imagine doing that“, or “How could any human be so corrupt?” That is what we say, but I wonder what those same men said just prior to their war time experience.

Star Wars and Its Buzz Marketing Campaign
I. Introduction Word-of-mouth advertising is often referred to as one of the most important sources of information for a consumer because it allows them to connect on a personal level instead of feeling pressured from a distant and calculated marketing pitch by an advertiser. Ironically, this form of "advertising" is not paid for, whereas advertisers usually pay for their advertisements. Word-of-mouth and buzz marketing can often be related in many ways because they are both

The Impact of the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan on the Cold War

The US wanted to support them financially and economically. They also believed in giving them choices, even though they may not have been the best. The real blame should have been partially on the Soviet Union. The Truman Doctrine and the Marshall plan had very little impact on the

The Art of Poetry: Interpretation and Imagination in William Carlos Williams'‘the Red Wheelbarrow'
William Carlos Williams, born in Rutherford, New Jersey, was one of the major writers of the Modernist movement, and he contributed greatly to the creation of a distinctly innovative American voice. He consciously provided a counterpoint to the works of Frost, Pound and Eliot, yet successfully composed his own highly original poetry of sensuous and associative immediacy and surprising vivacity, in spite of the ostensible aura of improvisation that one gains from a preliminary reading.
