...creature such as the tyger. This essay will provide a detailed analysis of William Blake’s “The Tyger” paying particular attention, firstly to the extended metaphor in stanza’s 2, 3 and 4, secondly, to the poetic significance of repetition, in particular to the phrase “fearful symmetry”, thirdly, to the role that the rhythm and metre play in creating an urgent need to address the succession of the questions and lastly, the evocation of the sublime emotion of terror in Blake’s depiction of the Tyger. Firstly, the extended metaphor in stanza’s 2, 3 and 4, is comparing the creator and his creation of the Tyger to a blacksmith and his creations. A blacksmith that makes use of tools, such as the “Hammer,” “chain,” ”furnace,” and “anvil” in creating objects out of hot metal. The blacksmith represents a conventional image of artistic creation; here Blake applies it to the divine creation of the natural world. This is evident in L5:”In what distant deeps or skies”, refers to an otherworldly (“distant”) place, perhaps a kind of hell (“deeps”) or Heaven (“skies”). The “distant deeps or skies” bring to mind the concept of hell being underground and heaven being in the sky. Since the Tyger may have been created in either hell (deeps) “or” heaven (skies), it remains ambiguous as to whether the Tyger is good or bad. Blake was essentially an artist. His Tyger is therefore a painting in words. The tyger in this poem is rather a magical, mystical creature. This is an artist’s impression of...

...running over the top of the furnace like spilled milk. Johnny jumped toward it, his right hand outstretched. Something happened, he never knew exactly what. His feet wet out from under him. His hand came down on top of the furnace” (Johnny Tremain pg. 38) This moment was a plot-turning part in the book Johnny Tremain by Esther Forbes. I loved this moment because, it was full of intensity and action. This scene had changed the view that I had on Johnny but,this moment had resulted in Johnny becoming a hero in the book. If Johnny had not burnt his hand, then he would have still been arrogant and felt as if he was the boss. In this scene, Johnny is trying to build the wealthy merchant’s (John Hancock) cup handle to perfection with a short amount of time. Since...

...William Makepeace Thackeray Vanity Fair Analysis of the following chapter: Chapter XLVIII: In Which the Reader Is Introduced to the Very Best of Company In the chapter Rebecca Sharp finally is presented at Court — the height of her ambition. The omnipresence of the author making philosophical diagrations on different matters is a characteristic feature of the novel. The passage contains of two paragraphs, and the most part of it is the author’s phylosophical and ironic contemplation on Vanity Fair representatives’ relation to those being presented at Court and to the King himself. The figure of the King is the central one in the extract. Portaying the King, Thackeray uses the words with positive connotations: “the Good, the Magnificent, the Great”, etc. They acquire the opposite sense in the context. And this is a common feature of ironic description. Irony turns to be the key device of the passage. In the presence of the monarch the representatives of the Vanity Fair seem to be going into ecstasies: “How they cheered, and cried, and waved handkerchiefs. Ladies wept; mothers clasped their children”. We observe here many sentences with homogeneous parts, parallel constructions, which are used to give a full image of a crowd cheering in the presence of their monarch. And, so, George V is represented as The King of the Vanity Fair. The process and consequences of being presented to the Sovereign at Court are likened to the sacrament of the Eucharist. In the first paragraph...

...An Analysis of “Up from Slavery” In the autobiography “Up from Slavery”, Brooke T. Washington describes his early life as a slave and at the end he tells about his speech at the Atlanta Exposition. Washington grows up on a plantation in Virginia with his mother, brother and sister. He does not know much about his father besides that he is white and lives on another plantation. He talks about his “not especially cruel” owners and the unknown history of his ancestry. Washington lives in the plantation kitchen where his mother works as the plantation cook. In the first chapter he describes the place he lives in and duties he has to fulfill as a slave. Further on he talks about education and about how the life as slave during war is. He also reveals the feelings of slaves toward whites, the hopes of Afro-Americans and how the feelings and difficulties after being free. How does Washington create such a lively and reliable description of the life as a slave in the story “Up from Slavery”? Autobiographies are always written in first-point of view and should not be confused with a standard biography that is written in third-person by “authors who knew the subjects well or by people who have thoroughly researched the lives of the characters” (Hammond). Through the first-point of view lives are captured in a direct way. “Up from Slavery” is an autobiography, since Washington tells about his own life, and therefore uses the first-point of view. Washington is privileged...

...INTRODUCTION: Science and technology are in continuous development. This leads to ever more demanding and intelligent technology. The demands made on modern materials are increasing with the same dynamism. The features that are demanded include greater strengths for material-saving constructions, lighter components for energy saving, higher quality for more security and longer service life. After all, cost-effectiveness plays a crucial role. Ceramic materials have in the past made an important contribution to this process of innovation. Requirements for the successful application of ceramics include constructions that are appropriate to the materials and the manufacturing processes, as well as appropriate applications. The point is not that common materials can be displaced, but rather that customised products allow completely new solutions. In order to make intelligent and effective use of the properties of ceramics, it is not sufficient simply to take an existing structural component and to replace it in every detail with a ceramic part. A drawing of the component used so far, however, together with a great deal of supplementary information, can show the way to the mass-produced ceramic component. Thermal, electrical, mechanical loading and the chemical environment must all be taken into account in this process. Appropriate criteria relevant to each particular case mean that one or more suitable materials out of the wide range of available ceramics can be identified. The materials...

...employed by the writer, in order to construct a narrative that is unique. By ‘moral judgement’, I refer to the messag e conveyed by a given text when referring to objects beyond itself. The above quest ion presupposes a relation between narrative style and moral judgement, and as such, part of my analysis will be to determine whether such a presupposition is wa rranted. Joseph Conrad’s novella Heart of Darkness has been celebrated for its detailed examination o f European values and conduct. Ian Watt argues that ‘ Heart of Darkness embodies more thoroughly than any previous fiction the postu re of uncertainty and doubt.’ 1 But is this reading accurate? And if so, what stylistic devices does Conrad use in order to convey this position of ‘uncertainty’? Heart of Darkness uses an oblique narrative style, that is to say, t hat an unnamed narrator relates the narrative as it is in turn rel ated to him by Marlow, Conrad’s main protagonist in the novella. It is thus we can be to ld that for Marlow: ‘the meaning of an episode was not inside like a ke rnel but outside, enveloping the tale which brought it out only as a glow brings out a haze, in the likeness of one of those misty halos t hat are sometimes made visible by the spectral illumination of moonsh ine.’ 2 1 Ian Watt, Impressionism and Symbolism in Heart of Darkness in Robert Kimbrough, ed.

...productivity of labour, improving economies and ecological load. In addition, a radical change in relationship to the customers is occuring at the end of this century, namely by a pronounced shift of readiness towards the needs and requirements of these customers. Steel's indisputable significance is confirmed by the fact that it has become the second most mass-produced commodity after cement production, attaining the world-wide production volume of approx. 750 mil tons yearly. The art of iron production from ore arose in connection with the practices of copper and lead technologies in Anatolya, in northern Syria and possibly also in part of Iran. Iron ores were added as fluxes for treatment of sulphide copper ores. Iron drops, which the local manufacturers identified already 3000 years BC, comparing these with meteoritic iron, already hinted at the existence of the possibility of producing iron, but this only occurred practically 15 centuries later. Since that time, it is necessary to reckon that only small amounts of this, in that time, rare metal dedicated to the highest strata of population or to the sovereigns and their courts could get out of this area, most probably as gifts only. The first occurrence of an iron object in our region on the territory of Slovakia is dated back to the 15th century BC, i.e. to the Bronze Age. This was the haft of a dagger. The first occurrence in Bohemia is dated back to...

...were charging rates comparable to luxurious hotels. People found it cheaper to fly to Disney World Florida and get an additional benefit of enjoying the weather. The Gulf war in 1991 also had a negative and during the same period, Europe was facing a recession. The French, for some reason, did not like the American culture while Disney tried to enforce this culture. The world fair in Spain and the Olympics in Barcelona in 1992 attracted holiday visitors hence, EuroDisney did not have many guest visiting it that year. Hong Kong Disneyland faced different issues. Firstly, people were not familiar with the characters since Disney was banned for 40 years in China. The park was small, with just a few rides compared to other Disneyland's, therefore customers were not interested. Despite these issues, it fared better since it incorporated a lot of Chinese culture. 2. To what degree do you consider that these factors were (a) foreseeable and (b) controllable by EuroDisney, Hong Kong Disney, or the parent company, Disney? Since the cost of Disney World Florida was cheaper, customers preferred to fly to the US. This meant that prices in Paris could also be controlled. There were several other mistakes made by the management; for instance, alcohol was banned although consuming wine with meals was a French tradition. The reason for banning alcohol in the park could be justified but it was not acceptable by the French due to their tradition. These factors should’ve been...

...using a case as example: replacing the propane gas system used for the furnaces in Frito Lay to use Natural Gas Introduction Frito Lay (FLD) is a cooking company that makes fry chips, which form part of the Pepsi corporation cluster. Pepsi is one company that is totally committed to be on the track towards sustainability, considering area of protections as water treatment, Greenhouse gases (GHG) emission, sustainable agriculture, water recycling, social responsibility and others with the intention of increasing revenues while reducing the environmental impact that it causes. And FLD as part of this group has been thinking of the opportunity to implement some sustainable features within the company that are to strive for the same objectives. One of the strategies that they considered is about replacing the propane gas that they are using as the combustible with natural gas1, which in some way is more ecofriendly to use, due to the lower level of CO2 emissions that the burning produce. However, to be able to take the decision if the replacement should be done or not, there are many factors to consider, like, how viable would be this change for the company? which is what this paper is about. This paper covers the analysis of the problem that was previously stated, trying to identify if it is beneficial for the company to implement the suggested change. With this put on the table, it is relevant for the analysis to consider that there are many ways of how to look at events, situations...

...examine the morality of Machiavelli’s practices in education. This paper will compare and contrast leadership elements in both The Prince and Animal Farm. Machiavelli wrote The Prince in 1513. The purpose of The Prince was to record the knowledge that Machiavelli held in regards to leadership and power. Machiavelli lays out in details the ways in which a prince can come to power and how to maintain that power. The principles that Machiavelli put forth are straight forward with no sugar coating and often considered immoral. Orwell’s Animal Farm is in stark contrast to The Prince’s fiction. The novel is set on an English farm where the animals have taken over the farm from humans to rule it for themselves. The animals start out believing that the product of their labor will benefit only them and that all animals are to be treated equally. Over time one of the animals comes to power and emanates the human habits that lead to the overthrow of the humans in the first place. The work is satirical of the Communist Revolution and Stalinism. Orwell and Machiavelli present a united front in the portrayal of the non-ruling class. Machiavelli makes no apologies when he states “Men are so simple and so much inclined to obey immediate needs that a deceiver will never lack victims for his deception.” (Machiavelli 2011 p 46) Machiavelli presents the follower as simple minded, easily lead, and easily tricked. Orwell presents this idea over and over in Animal Farm. A prime example is the sheep...
