...When I was reading the story I couldn’t stop thinking about racism and difference between black people and white people and how the black people have to fight for them self all the time, back then but also now a days. The main character is Nancy Lee. She goes to school a white school, called George Washington High and she seems proud of being a Negro American. She also seems to be a calm and friendly girl, a girl that knows what she wants, and is following her dreams. I can see that because the last line in the text is “that is the land we must make” when I read that, I could see she is a real fighter and a girl who wants to change the country. The theme of the text is racism and difference between black people and white people, because the committee found out that Nancy Lee was black and then they changed their plans about her getting the “art scholarship of the year”. Analysis - composition: The text starts with in medias res, because we don’t get an introduction or a presentation. It is a chronological order, and the end is open. Because Nancy Lee could have done something and I think that it is obvious that she would, with the last words she is thinking. Story-teller: it is a 3.Person story-teller. I think the story-teller knows about Nancy Lee’s feelings, or maybe it is a person who knows her very well. And it is always this person’s point of view we see in the story. Environment: I think it is a standard environment for white people, but the school is very...

...Movies are documents of their time and place. Movies are artistic forms of self-expression. Movies we see at theatres, on television, or home video are typically narrative films. They tell stories about characters going through experiences. But what are they really about? What is the content of a film? DIGGING DEEPER: FOUR LEVELS OF MEANING Recounting the plot of a movie, telling what happens, is the simplest way to explain it to someone else. But this is neither a film review nor a film analysis. It’s merely a synopsis that anyone else who sees or has seen the movie will likely agree with. This level of content may be called the referential content, since it refers directly to things that happen in the plot and possibly to some aspects of the story that are merely implied by the plot. In John Boorman’s Deliverance (1972), four men from the city go on a weekend canoe trip that unexpectedly becomes a life or death struggle for survival of man against man and man against nature. Some characters survive, others don’t. Most films can be analyzed more thoroughly to reveal deeper levels of meaning. A review (perhaps 400-1200 words) typically includes personal impressions and evaluations of a movie’s content and techniques. A good review may be subjective, yet still touch superficially on topics that might be explored in more detail in a longer formal analysis. An analysis (perhaps 1200-12,000 words) attempts to determine how the film actually uses various cinematic ...

...Jonathan Nottage Cusick English IV 1 November 2015 Clarifying Questions 1. We never learn how long the implied affair between King Claudius and Queen Gertrude lasted, for or if it was even an affair before King Hamlet died. How long if at all, was the affair? Hamlet makes many remarks of incestuous activities with his mother through the play Gertrude wastes little time before re marrying (therefore possible that they were already in a relationship) 2. Especially in 5.2 there are a lot of stage directions involving the actor speaking [Aside] . With this, are most of these lines supposed to be interpreted as happening in the actors head? Or perhaps to another actor onstage, just in a secret manner? I think it's most likely in the actors...

...A Journey A Journey is a story written by Colm Tóibín in 2006. The story is about Mary, her family and their problems. In this essay I will find out what could cause the problems. To support my claims I will make an analysis and interpret the short story “A journey” in which I will put my interpretation into perspective with this to other items. The story starts in media res where we get introduced to Mary the protagonist, and her son David. At the beginning of the story there is a flashback. The flashback is from David’s childhood. Suddenly the story moves on to present time, where Mary picks her son up from the hospital and drives him home. Almost the whole story takes place in the car. Mary is an ordinary married woman and it seems like she has an unhappy and depressed family. She lives with her husband Seamus and her son David, in the house her father gave her at her weeding. David is suffering from a depression and Mary does not know why, neither can she figure it out. Mary seems to be a good and careful mother “She dreamed for a second that they had not sold it and thought that working there every day might help David” Even though if it seems like Mary has been a good mother, she still has not spend a enough of her time with David when he was child. “Mrs. Redmond, who lives in a nearby cottage and whose husband died just after David was born, came in every day to help and babysat at night if they wanted to get out” This might indicate that it was not Mary...

...In this study guide: What is critical thinking? Structure: organising your thoughts and materials Generating critical thinking Critical questions – a linear model Description, analysis and evaluation Developing an argument For further information and the full range of study guides go to: http://www.learningdevelopment.plymouth.ac.uk What is critical thinking? This guide to critical thinking stresses the importance of asking and answering questions. In everyday life the term „critical‟ is often seen as negative or destructive. Being critical in academic life, however, does not mean questioning things randomly, or for the sake of „nit-picking‟. Instead, academic work aims to get as near as possible to the truth. Critical thinking in any subject or discipline is the way in which this is done, along with the more specialised applications of theory, the methods and techniques, which have been developed for the subject. Critical thinking then, is the attempt to ask and answer questions systematically. This means asking the most useful questions in the most productive sequence in order to yield a coherent and credible „story‟ So thinking critically means asking questions. Instead of accepting „at face value‟ what you read or hear, critical thinkers look for evidence and for good reasons before believing something to be true. This is at the heart of what it means to be a scientist, researcher, scholar or professional in any field. Whatever you are studying, critical...

...the primary sources to human happiness is the close and positive relations we can have to each other. We have the ability to communicate and we have an enormous vocabulary to express how we feel. But with great power comes great responsibility. Communication is a central part of an intimate relationship and, if handled properly, it can be the key to a long and happy life. But if a person is unable to communicate about feelings it can be the end of ever obtaining true intimacy and in the end lead to loneliness and low self-esteem. This essay will contain an analysis and interpretation of the short story Sorry for Disturbing You by Richard Knight (2008), which deals with the subject of communication. The story is about a meeting between two strangers that occurs when the main character of the story, Ian, finds an old and dirty man knocking on his door. Subsequently I will put it into perspective by discussing Love Poem by Douglas Dunn (1969) and The Ambulance Box by Andrew Phillip (2009). The composition of Sorry for Disturbing You is mainly chronological. It starts in medias res as Ian reflects over his meeting with Michael Phelps. This is the only place where there is a breach of the chronologically time line. The story spans over a couple of hours, from the moment Ian opens the door to when he returns home to his wife and daughter, Karen and Corinne. It is told by a third person limited narrator as we only get an insight view on Ian thoughts. This means that there is no outer...

...watching the film Amistad and read the book of this story, I feel like they are both valuable to study the history of America in 1840s. Meanwhile, from my point of view, the book is more academical than the movie while the movie can give you a quick idea about what is really going on in the story and you can feel the story more directly than the book. Now, let’s compare them in different aspects. 1.What can the student more readily learn from the film as opposed to the book? After watching the movie, the first thing that I feel different from the book is the mood that those actors behaved were really shocking. From the movie, we can directly feel the eager of those black people whom lead by Cinque want to regain...

I work for Starbucks coffee company as a shift supervisor and the district coffee master of City of London which allows me to go around the city from store to store in order to enhance coffee education. Anywhere I go and take a walk around the cafe area I would always find cups laying around with almost all of the drink still in it. Why wouldn’t anyone even bother to take their drink with them that they bought for money? That was always a mystery to me. At the beginning of this module (Organisation and Identity) some very unexpected ideas came by which I could not really grasp during the initial couple of weeks which led me to think of quitting the module. However, I did not do so with a hope that I will probably understand whats going on and quitting did not seem like a very noble idea. As we entered the third week and studied ‘behaviourism’ I could slowly start relating the core ideas to practical life and it was the fourth week when we studied ‘symbolic interactionism’ and I could never be more thankful to myself for continuing as this very idea opened...

...english starts to show up around the 1600’s. Shakespeare writes in modern english. What we see today as modern english is a very new revival. There is no systematized spelling, it’s not until Gutenbergs printer that it’s shaped as a whole. It gets systematized with the printer. Campion wrote in the ”golden age” in english. The theme of love is very common in this period. He wrote before Shakespeare. Campion ”stole” it from Catullus. Rebirth of classical learning. The right place to go is to the source, the roman poets. During the renessance. English had to find itself, therefore it had to go look for inspiration abroad. The first time English could say this is ”our” invention. Homer – The Odyssey. James Joyce – Ulysses. They’re ”borrowing” a lot from the greeks and the romans. Milton is desperate to make english latin. We have got to be latin, if it’s not latin it’s not literature. The language comes really late into the game. English always tries to catch up. Languages comes from a conquerer taking a country and forcing his language onto the native language. English is a mishmash language. Grammar is also merged. The vikings/barbarians invaded England, and beat down all culture/cities/religion. They wiped out the latin culture. And settled. Anglo-saxon 450-550 AD. Britain becomes a series of tribal bands. Britain becomes ”aengland”. Britain becomes a country under a german people.

...Living with the past? Should we forget or remember? A dilemma - to remember or to forget? To perhaps gain "closure" from some past physical or emotional trauma by confronting it or by letting it go? Which between "remembering" or "forgetting" creates more private or social well-being? Or is there a third option? Forgiving - and is this even considered? Which provides "health"? What is "health" - freedom from trauma, management of pain? Can a "country" be seen as suffering "ill health"? Can a nation be diagnosed "healthy" or in "ill-health"? Does a "collective memory" embody collective guilt or collective innocence or collective amnesia? Funder's “Stasiland” provides a relatively balanced but personalised analysis of the rise and then demise of East Germany after 1945 and from Communist occupation to re-unification and democracy. Most potently, Funder "records" the personal testimonies (memories) of how both the victims and perpetrators she interviews were affected by such sweeping changes. As a journalist, while she may bias our interpretation towards the victims of the "Stasi" she does not glibly provide simple answers, but she does perhaps re-emphasise both the dangers of forgetting and the dread of remembering the past – the tyranny and fascism of Nazi Germany and the East German totalitarian regime which supplanted it - "to remember or forget— which is healthier? To demolish or fence it off? To dig it up or leave it in the ground?” Chapter 5: The Linoleum Palace: Funder...
