The City
THE CITY Suffocation.... Under the strain of guilt and fear Conscience fights for her last breath. Wave after wave of violent thoughts Come crashing against the rocks of reason. Rocks that once proved to be a barrier and a fortress, Now being pounded by the force of argument and rationale. Now the castle of sanity which houses conscience Is being eroded by the weeds of condemnation. Weeds brought in by the waves; Waves from distant

Quote Analysis Essay
Analytic Essay Italo Calvino stated in his essay, “The Literature Machine”, that “A classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say.” Perhaps he is saying that after a reader finishes a “classic”, they are left to make their own assumptions about what it means. This can be seen in almost all books that are considered to be “classics”. In William Golding's novel, “The Lord of the Flies”, the book

Discuss Two Examples of How Poetry Is Used to Explore the Theme of Betrayal
Discuss two examples of how poetry is used to explore the theme of betrayal. Poetry is an opinionated, personal form of literature.

Two Uncommon Men
Two Uncommon Men Too often, it seems to me, people lose their courage in facing life because of past failures, or fear that they may fail in the future. One good way to cure such fears is to remember that life constantly yields second chances, and in grasping them one can put his previous failures to creative use. Edmund Burke, British orator, philosopher, and politician once said, "Never despair; but if you do, work on

Two Wrongs Don’t Make a Right (death Penalty)
There are many things wrong with today’s growing society; however, I believe the death penalty is the worst. I am strongly against the death penalty because it sets a bad example for our society, prisoners could be wrongly convicted, and it is cruel and unusual punishment. Our youth is learning from our actions. If a Timmy gets punched during recess, does the teacher advocate Timmy to punch the other child back? No, this is the

The Franklin’s Tale
The Franklin of the General Prologue is the only pilgrim of social substance apart from the knight, whose pretensions Chaucer seems to spare. He rides alongside the Sergeant of the Law, which argues that he is, himself, a legally minded man (indeed he has been sheriff; knight of the shire; county auditor and head of the local magistrates).
