...For example, “Ross: [To Macduff] Your castle is surprised, your wife and babes Savagely slaughtered. To relate the manner, Were, on the quarry of these murdered deer To add the death of you”(1.4.207-210). This shows, Macbeth will not stand for traitors. As a result of Macduff going to England to find help to dethrone Macbeth his family is brutally punished for his betrayal. Furthermore, “Macbeth: Stars, hide your fires; Let not light see my black and deep desires. The eye wink at the hand, yet let that be Which the eye fears, when it is done, to see” (1.4.52-55). In other words, Macbeth describes his ambition to gain power as black and deep. At this point Macbeth has given into his lust for power as a result betraying his morals. In essence, three ways some individuals obtain power is through blood shed, manipulation, and betrayal. Power will lead either to corruption and death or it power will help you help others around you. It is important that the subject be explored in literature because literature relates to life and life relates to literature. Whether you can relate to the lust for power through personal experience or through others lust for power. The subject of power is important to society. For Example, power tends to attract individuals from a society who are susceptible to...

...Janel Adrianne D. Dihiansan TH 121 – DD Ms. Puen November 27, 2013 Revelation in Our Midst In general, God reveals Himself through His creations. It is God’s self-communication, which is accessed in faith through grace. It is a gift. It is directed to the entire human race, and it is a matter of how we receive His message and interpret it in our own ways. The truths revealed may be inaccessible to the human mind – mysteries, even when revealed; the intellect of an ordinary man is incapable of fully penetrating. God reveals Himself in word and in deed. The essence of revelation lies in the fact that it is the direct speech of God to His people. Revelation does not stop even if someone else is delivering the message of God. The best example for this is Jesus Christ. Jesus was sent to us by His Father to proclaim His words and wisdom. He is the sole and universal mediator between God and all of humanity. Jesus is both human and divine. He is divine in the sense that He is the Incarnate Son of God. He is human in the sense that He walked this very earth and preached His Father’s teachings in a language understandable to all. Honestly, I do not have a very strong faith in God. Yes, I believe in Him and His teachings; I believe they are right and just. But if I actually think about it more realistically, is God really controlling every thing that is happening around us? Is He always in the “behind the scenes” part of our lives and our decision making process? For...

...Lauren Lehman Dr. Gabriel Estrada R/ST 302i T/Th 9:30 18, November 2012 Essay Two Gender has always played a fundamental role in the topic of religion. The type of faith that an individual chooses to embrace can ultimately identify the type of life they decide to live and molds them into the person that they become. Choosing to live by certain religious customs can - and often will - determine the clothes they wear, the people they surround themselves with, and certain ideas and activities that they practice. Within the vast range of different religions, each religious group creates either an equal balance between man and woman or strictly divides the two by demanding different life practices to abide by. Society oftentimes views religions that agree more strongly with the act of dominance and generate a sense of feminism. Many religions exercise supremacy over women while others ignore the overall essence of gender and instead practice equality. Islam and Buddhism are familiar religions that treat gender in somewhat similar yet distinct ways. For some religions, specifically Muslims, there has always been a sense of ridicule towards their Islamic society. Muslim women experience struggle and a continuous desire for acceptance within the world. People have come to conclusions that “eastern women, and especially Muslim women, are the most oppressed and downtrodden women on earth, and that although Islam may have something interesting to say on some level, it certainly...

...As I enter my first college class, my attention goes to Professor Feldman, a tall, slender woman in a loose pearl blouse with black dress pants. The combination of her graceful stance and scholarly presence distinguishes her already from the chaos of the lecture room. The calm demeanor spreads through the room as she gradually turns the lights down low, signaling the beginning of lecture, and gives life to the art historian’s companion, the slide projector. Her slow and steady speech is punctuated by inflections at nearly every other word and reflects her scholarly presence. She picks her words carefully and you can sense the moment’s thought before each. Her precisely chosen words make each one valuable as I frantically try to catch them all. Feldman incorporates her elevated vocabulary in daily speech and lecture, requiring that I form my own vocabulary list: mélange, koine, cache, lingua franca, etc. In spite of being intimidated by Professor Feldman’s scholarship, the fellow human being, Marian Feldman, shows through at times. She does not hesitate to admit “When did those excavations take place?” or “Who was that guy who ruled Babylon? I never remember that one.” At one point she might exclaim, “Well, it doesn’t matter anyway” followed by a signature chuckle. She welcomes corrections or additions by students, and some questions lead her to guiltily admit, “You caught me. I was trying to avoid that one because, well, we just don’t...

...Strategic Analysis of Nestlé and its Competitor Kraft Foods Course: International Business Strategy (IB BA) Professor Lewis University of Applied Sciences Dresden Project Members: Katerina Schneiderova Sandra Merkel Nicole Klötzer Carolin Wiese Samuel Weimer Nicole Schröder Date: 11th June 2010 Executive Summary In the following, two companies and their strategic positions within the coffee consumer goods industry will be described. The focus lies on Nestlé and its competitor Kraft Foods. As coffee is one of the most popular products worldwide, this is a very demanding business. It is necessary to provide high quality products, especially when working in the more affluent segments like Nestlé and Kraft Food do. Several political, economic, social, technical, environmental and legal aspects have an impact on the industry branch they are operating in. In addition, there is not only a differentiation in Robusta and Arabica coffee, but also in filter coffee, portioned and non-portioned soluble coffee. To satisfy the diverging needs of all customers, different strategies are applied to gain more market share. In this report it is examined how those companies operate in the specific business context, what they have in common and where they differ. Furthermore, an analysis of the industry attractiveness, of the market segmentation and value chain and an overview of resources and capabilities are part of this paper. After intense research...

...Lady Macbeth is a character in Shakespeare's Macbeth (c.1603–1607). She is the wife to the play's protagonist, Macbeth, a Scottish nobleman. After goading him into committing regicide, she becomes Queen of Scotland, but later suffers pangs of guilt for her part in the crime. She dies off-stage in the last act, an apparent suicide. According to some genealogists, Lady Macbeth and Duncan's wife were sisters or cousins, where Lady Macbeth had a stronger claim to the throne then Duncan's wife. It was this that incited her jealousy and hatred of Duncan. The character's origins lie of the accounts of Kings Duff and Duncan in Holinshed's Chronicles (1587), a history of Britain familiar to Shakespeare. Shakespeare's Lady Macbeth appears to be a composite of two separate and distinct personages in Holinshed's work: Donwald's nagging, murderous wife in the account of King Duff, and Macbeth's ambitious wife Gruoch of Scotland in the account of King Duncan. Lady Macbeth is a powerful presence in the play, most notably in the first two acts. Following the murder of King Duncan, however, her role in the plot diminishes. She becomes an uninvolved spectator to Macbeth's plotting, and a nervous hostess at a banquet dominated by her husband's hallucinations. Her fifth act sleepwalking scene is a turning point in the play, and her line, "Out, damned spot!," has become a phrase familiar to many speakers of the English language. The report of her death late in the fifth act provides the inspiration...

...existence of God. As Edward Thomson so beautifully stated it: "...the doctrine of the one living and true God, Creator, Preserver, and Benefactor of the universe, as it solves so many problems, resolves so many doubts, banishes so many fears, inspires so many hopes, gives such sublimity to all things, and such spring to all noble powers, we might presume would, as soon as it was announced, be received by every healthy mind." Some, however, contrary to their higher interests, have refused to have God in their knowledge and thus have become vain in their reasonings and foolish in their philosophy (Romans 1:21,22,28). They do not see the folly (Psalm 14:1) of saying there is no God. The Christian has not only the obligation to "give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning the hope that is in you..." (I Peter 3:15), but an obligation to carry the Gospel message to a lost and dying world (Mark 16:15-16, et al.). There will be times when carrying the Gospel message to the world will entail setting forth the case for the existence of God. In addition, we need to remember that Christians are not agnostics. The agnostic is the person who says that God's existence is unknowable. As difficult as it is to believe, some Christians take that same stance in regard to God's existence. They assert that...

No one is good but God alone. 19You know the commandments: “You shall not murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; You shall not defraud; Honour your father and mother.” ’ 20He said to him, ‘Teacher, I have kept all these since my youth.’ 21Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said, ‘You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.’ 22When he heard this, he was shocked and went away grieving, for he had many possessions. 23 Then Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, ‘How hard it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!’ 24And the disciples were perplexed at these words. But Jesus said to them again, ‘Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! 25It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.’ 26They were greatly astounded and said to one another, ‘Then who can be saved?’ 27Jesus looked at them and said, ‘For mortals it is impossible, but not for God; for God all things are possible.’ 28 Peter began to say to him, ‘Look, we have left everything and...

It closely examines a selection of poems by Breyten Breytenbach, Dennis Brutus, Pascal Gwala, Wopko Jensma, Oswald Mtshali, Arthur Nortje, Cosmo Pieterse, Sipho Sepamla, and Wally Serote, among others. The body of the thesis discusses these poets' contributions to poetry about prison, exile, and township life. The thesis focuses on the struggle between various polical, racial, and cultural groups for hegemony over South Africa's poetic development. Such issues as language, ideology, and censorship are explored insofar as they in! .luence t:ne content and structure of the poetry. This body of poems, sadly, is little studied in North America.
