...Egor Rakitin, 743 group The Text Analysis “Typhoon” The text under analysis is taken from the novel “Typhoon” belonging to the pen of American writer Theodore Dreiser. Despite the fact he was born in the USA and lived there, Theodore Dreiser wasn’t American in a true sense of this word. The Dreisers were an international family, for example his father was German and this fact had an impact on Dreiser’s works which were aimed at dispelling the myth of the “American Dream”. He treated the American world and its society negatively and attacked its false ideas, cutthroat competition and lack of responsibility. The extract from “Typhoon” pivots on the same idea shown through Ida Zobel’s life. Ida is a teenager who lives in the USA, in the family of immigrants from Germany. The author knows about the ordinary run of things in such families not by hearsay, that’s why he manages to provide the reader with the most significant feature of it in few expressions: “singularly restricted” and “indifferent”, “extremely reserved” and “orderly respect for labour and order”, narrow, sober, workaday Germans “. No emotions, no colours, no entertainment, no events – if you were a young girl would you enjoy such a style of life? Moreover Ida lives with her father, aunt and stepmother who seemingly have to take care of her from other teenagers because they are “restless, seeking” and all these features lead the degradation of the nation. And the Zobels are the representatives of the German nation...

...Cat in the in rain My assignment will contain an analysis of the short story: “Cat in the rain” written by Ernst Hemmingway. In my analysis and discussion I will focus on literary modernism and the lost generation, what typical features of the period, of the generation and of Hemingway’s style we see in the text, besides the text in from the 1920’s.

...Charlotte thought of her sister, some literary critics agree on the fact that it is a very carefully constructed novel. The main problem of critical response was that critics could not work out its moral standpoint. Both lovers deliberately marry other partners. As Catherine Earnshaw dies halfway through the novel, which pair of lovers is meant to carry our approval, Catherine and Heathcliff or young Catherine and Hareton? Moreover their voices reach us through a medley of others: Mr Lockwood, Nelly, Isabella, who are often ignored by readers. A parable of a natural equilibrium disturbed by an external force and eventually somehow restored. The theory that a principle of calm and storm informs the novel provided a comprehensive interpretation. The two aspects (calm and storm) are not necessarily conflicting and will ultimately lead to a state of equilibrium. The world described by the novel is pre-moral, and the drives of the main characters seem to reach beyond their death and strive for transcendence. (Early Victorian Novelists, Lord David Cecil, 1934) A restless force, represented by C and H, which continually pushes against a framework of religion, propriety, social expectations. The novel represents a clash of social classes and economic interests where the respectable farming class (the Earnshaws) is progressively destroyed by the newly wealthy capitalists (H) and the traditional gentry (the Lintons). Lockwood and Nelly represent, from different class perspectives...

...Analysis This is, without a doubt, Kipling's most beloved poem, and, along with "The White Man's Burden", his most famous. Although T.S. Eliot would deem it only "great verse" and others "jingoistic nonsense," it is consistently ranked among the highest, if not the highest itself, of Britons' favorite poems. It was first published in the "Brother Square-Toes" chapter of Rewards and Fairies, a 1910 collection of verse and short stories. While the poem is addressed to Kipling's son John, it was inspired by a great friend of his, Leander Starr Jameson, the Scots-born colonial politician and adventurer responsible for what has been deemed the Jameson raid that led to the Second Boer War. The raid was intended to start an uprising among the British expatriate workers in the South African Republic, but there were complications and it was a failure. Jameson was arrested and tried, but he was already being hailed a hero by London, which was filled with anti-Boer sentiment. He served only fifteen months in prison and later became Prime Minister of Cape Colony back in South Africa. It appears that Kipling had met Jameson and befriended him through Cecil Rhodes, the Prime Minister of Cape Colony at the time of the raid. In his autobiography Something of Myself, Kipling wrote of Jameson and "If-": "Among the verses in Rewards was one set called `If-', which escaped from the book, and for a while ran about the world. They were drawn from Jameson's character, and contained counsels of...

...Drug Analysis Kaplan University Danielle DeCook CJ 411 Drugs and Alcohol in the Criminal Justice System Professor Deborah Robinson February 28, 2012 Depressants, Stimulants, and Hallucinogens have many similarities and differences but the main commonality is they are all highly addictive. Depressants are considered downers; they are sedating drugs that depress the Central Nervous System. An example of depressant would be heroin. Heroin is an opioid - a very powerful painkiller. The body and the brain are packed with opioid receptors meant for endorphins, the body's own natural pain-killing substances produced in emergency moments of shock or injury. The body also produces this substance when an individual is engaging in physical activity. Endorphins are also produced when a person is under stress. Heroin mimics endorphins and binds rapidly with endorphin receptors, extending and magnifying their natural painkilling effect (NIDA 1986). The result is a surge of pleasurable sensation, or "rush." This rush is usually accompanied by a warm feeling and a sense of well-being. Humans are pleasure-seeking entities, and are naturally attracted to things that make them feel good. The effects are rapid but will depend on the method of ingestion. Intravenous injection provides the greatest intensity and the most rapid onset of euphoria (7 to 8 seconds). Intra-muscular injection produces a relatively slow onset (between 5 to 8 minutes). Sniffing or smoking usually provides peak effects...

...across the world, would write a book on anything other than IT? Although it’s not very surprising that the author chose to write about Indian economy, the problems it faces and ideas that will solve these problems; the logical deduction from the author’s past experiences would point towards a book primarily about IT. However, the author’s past experience as an entrepreneur fighting customer perceptions of India’s delivery capabilities on one hand and bureaucratic hurdles on the other has helped write this book better. The book primarily talks with the youth of the country as the driver of change that the country needs. India has the youngest population in the world with a median age of 23 years. The author emphasizes on how the relatively young work force of our country is more of an advantage to the country rather than a burden. In this book, the author has presented a very optimistic picture of the future of the country and he considers the next few years of reforms to reinforce India as one of the dominant economies besides China. The author has also highlighted how people accept Globalization in the present time and how they have reacted to Globalization in the past. The author has given examples of Coca-Cola, McDonalds and KFC to elucidate how globalization was looked up at in the reform years of the past. However the author also notes that in the present, people welcome international brands and take pride in domestic brands gaining international popularity. Thus, the contrast...
