...A common question posed throughout time is whether people can feel love or joy without also feeling grief and heartbreak or not. Neruda answers if human beings can feel true joy without first experiencing sadness with his use of stars throughout his poetry. Neruda uses a star motif to indicate a positive feeling or outlook surrounded by the harsh darkness of negativity. A star signifies a light in the dark. Neruda suggests that there can only be light if there is also darkness. The emotional highs and lows in life must ultimately balance out. In his poems, Neruda uses the motif of stars to portray positive emotions that contrast the negative emotions of the night, showing the reader that people can have two or more consecutive or simultaneous...

...overruling people’s thoughts and decisions. Shakespeare, demonstrating how their love is destroyed by the irrational hatred created by society, explores the impetuous and romantic love of Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare examines the complexity of love and the inevitability of fate through the ingenious use of literary and dramatic techniques. Love is a convoluted emotion that sparks intense feelings of passion. The understanding of the emotion, its causes and consequences is timelessly relevant. The obsessive nature of love is...

...Anh Qui Pham 02/23/2015 Oxford, England February 2, 1918 Dear Daisy, my darling! Last night, I couldn’t sleep and stood outside the soldier crew tent staring intently at the infinite flickering stars, holding in my hand the letter telling that you are going to marry Tom Buchanan. For a moment, I was stunned. I can’t believe that it’s true, but my dear, I understand why you may doubt my love for you. It was such a long time ago that we were last together. Because I had to leave for the World War 1 in 1917 and operated so many places, we lost contact with each other. You may think that I forget you, but my love, every minute we have been apart, I have felt like an incomplete man; I miss you so much. No words can express how much I love you. I think of you day and night, night and day, even in my dream I still see you. Every night, I star at the star and imagine that you’re here with me, dreaming of our future that is as bright as those stars. But last night, those stars seem vague as the tears blur my eyes. I though that everything was going perfectly between us, and no one could get in between you and me, but Tom has ruined everything in a hurry. I believe that your family has forced you to marry him for his money, but true love means more than some lousy money. Nothing can compare to our love. Money can’t bring you true happiness; it only lasts for a while and I think you know that. Daisy, you are the only one for me, and I can’t afford to lose you so easily. Please don’t...

...My mask includes many aspects of my character, some that people are familiar with, and others most people didn’t know about me. On the outside of the mask, I painted a sky filled with clouds and stars at the top. Secondly, on the inside, I painted a few things that not too many people know about me. I didn’t find this part very easy. Only close friends know the real me, or who I display myself as in general. This made it difficult for me to think of some characteristics of mine that would help people who barely know me be able to easily identify that this mask was mine, just by looking at the exterior. On the outside, I painted a picture of a sky with clouds for many reasons. First of all, my friends, or people who know me well, know that most of the time, my head is up in the clouds. I tend to daydream during class when i’m supposed to be working on something, but luckily, i’ve gotten better about it. Also, sometimes, I tend to drift off in the middle of conversations and not completely listen. Also, one of my close friends says that i’m an airhead of sorts, not that i’m stupid, but because, like I said earlier, I tend to drift off sometimes. Also, I tend to come up with some pretty wacky ideas that my friends’ find hilarious. They say they all knew I was crazy from the moment they first looked at me....

...Look back through the play to find as many light and dark images as you can. In each case, identify the context; who is speaking? When and where? What kind of effects do these images have? Light and dark imagery: Act 1 scene 1- scene 4 Montague says: Away from light steals home my heavy son Shut up his windows, locks fair daylight out And makes himself an artificial night He talks about Romeo as he is depressed and locked himself in a room. Capulet says: At my poor house look to behold this night Earth treading stars that make heaven light He means there will be a lot of beautiful ladies at the party and their beauties will light up the night sky. Romeo says: Give me a torch: I am not for this ambling Being but heavy, I will bear the light Romeo said this to Benvolio at Capulet party. He doesn’t want to wear a mask because he is in the bad mood, heavy and he will stand still and carry the light. Romeo says: But, soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun Romeo said this to Juliet. He is saying that her beauty is like the sun. Shining beauty, pure, shiny. Romeo says: Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, Who is already sick and pale with grief, That thou her maid art far more fair than she Romeo said this to Juliet at the balcony. He is saying that he does not want the sun to arise because that means he will have to go home and there are chances that he will see Juliet again. Act 1 scene...

...Topic: Unspoken Love Quote 1 A. Viola (in her disguise as Cesario) comes to Olivia to deliver the speech Orsino has sent her to carry. It is his message of love for Olivia, however, Cesario sets aside the prepared message and proceeds to tell Olivia what he would do if he were in love with her. It sets the stage for Olivia to fall in love with Viola, yet dressed and known as the man Cesario. B. ”Make me a willow cabin at your gate And call upon my soul within the house, Write loyal cantons of contemnèd love, And sing them loud even in the dead of night; Hallow your name to the reverberate hills, And make the babbling gossip of the air Cry out ’Olivia!’ O, you should not rest Between the elements of air and earth But you should pity me.” (237-245) C.”Make me a cabin at your gate and call upon my heart within the house, Write loyal words of true love, And sing them loud even in the dead of night so all can hear, Hallow your name above the hills, And make the babbling gossip of the air cry out’ Olivia!’ O, you should not rest Between the elements of air and earth But you should pity me for my love for you is painfully never ending.” D. Viola (as Cesario) is stating that if she were Orsino, she would be outside Olivia’s gate night and day, proclaiming her love, until Olivia took “pity” on her for the strength of that love (as if she were Cesario). E. Olivia is falling in love with Viola (a woman playing the role of a man) trying to help Olivia fall in love with her Lord....

...that explored a range of emotions in both is drama and his poetry. His presentation of strong feelings, most particularly his presentation of love and passion, is a piece of his writing that has fascinated audiences and critics alike for centuries. It could be argued that his sonnets (166 and 130) and the play Romeo and Juliet best represents his exploration of strong feelings and of love. Romeo and Juliet is a love story written by Shakespeare, it is the most famous tragic love play. It is about “two star-crossed lovers” in different households both alike in dignity which is where the scene begins. At the beginning of the play, there’s a feud going on between the Capulet and Montague families. People involved in the feud have to defend their families and friends, even if that means bloodshed. The main thing is that Shakespeare was trying to describe an exotic place where the audience could believe a tragic love story might happen. Romeo and Juliet are about two households in Verona which is where the scene begins. Throughout the play Romeo and Juliet Shakespeare presents love as a strong and passionate emotion. He generally links love and religion in his play. The prologue is a 14 line sonnet. This describes two families that are both ‘alike in dignity’ and live in Verona; this also tells us that from each household ‘a pair of star-cross’d’ lovers will appears. Their lives are taken to mend the hatred between their families. In Act 1 Scene V takes place at the Capulet’s...

...main obstacles we face when thinking about a self-portrait. Due to this reason, I decided that I need to evaluate my traits, and try and think about who I am, before presenting myself to others. I believe that a self-portrait reveals a very intimate side of an artist. Many of us possess countless traits that shape our character; unfortunately, we are often unable to convey all these characteristics in one painting. Therefore, I have decided to include those traits that I believe define me the most. I will explore these characteristics in greater detail in Section 1.1.2- Artistic Choices in Composition. Assessing External Perception The way we view ourselves may not correlate with the way others perceive us. Despite my internal self-exploration, and my desire to depict my many traits, those traits I wish to depict in my self-portrait might define me during my life and long after my death. It is, therefore, quite important that I consider my audience when choosing which traits to reveal. My perhaps most intimate traits can remain hidden in my other paintings and in my symbolism. It is the conflict between internal and external depiction that will give my self-portrait much depth. I wish to be explicit and implicit, mysterious and obvious, controversial and traditional. Only this kind of self-portrait could adequately capture the complexity of my character. 2 My Artistic Choices in Composition Colors Colors can influence our perception and impact our emotions. It is often...

...Star Wars, a legacy that has been around since 1977. Star Wars truly stood the test of time in many ways: a wide fan base, well written story, and a lot of content. The fan base for Star Wars is rampant with the amount of people that adore Star Wars. The fan base starts with the older generation which is the group that saw the first three movies (A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi) which are called the sequels. George Lucas, the creator of Star Wars, knew how to draw people in by the story. The most noticeable things about Star Wars is the opening crawl text, the film scores, and Darth Vader’s voice/ breathing. Then to the second generation of Star Wars fans which were around during the prequels (The Phantom Menace, The Clone Wars, and Revenge of the Sith). The Phantom Menace came out in 1999. These movies had a lot of CGI (Computer Generated Images). It advanced technology because they did what some people couldn’t in film making. The older generation was still around when these came out and were still hyped about more Star Wars and the origin of some of the characters stories. Now we have new movies with Disney buying LucasFilm. These will affect the third generation. The only movie we know of continuing from Return of the Jedi is The Force Awakens which comes out in less than a month. Just from the trailers it shows a very well written story. People bought movies theaters out in less than a day when they were able to be purchased. It’s rare for that...
