After taking a post as a French consul in 1783, Crevecoeur published little in English, though he did publish a French revision of Letters (1787) and a final book on his American experiences: Voyage dans la Haute Pensylvanie et dans l'état de NewYork (1801). Letters from an American Farmer is an excellent example of how a New World American thinks about the many changes occurring and that have occurred during the era of Enlightenment. Crevecoeur's essay is an enlightened perspective that shows how the people of that time are feeling about being a part of the new world and its current workings. Although the writer is originally from Normandy, and later Canada, he seems to truly grasp the changes in American society and how vastly different it is from Europe. Crevecoeur explains that America is a literal melting pot for people of all religions. He states that "the Americans become as to religion what they are as a country, allied to all"
Never did anything unwise. Mrs Bantry was more active, she was even kind of happy about the body because she had been waiting for a long time for something interesting to happen in her life. Conway Jefferson was a frequent guest at the Majestic Hotel. He was an old man in a wheelchair because he had lost his both legs, wife, son and daughter in a plane crash. But he was still going on and he even got rich after the accident and that shows he's a very strong man with an iron will. He was Ruby Keene's new friend. He was staying at the hotel with his son's widow and daughter's widower. Raymond Starr was a male dancer, the partner of Ruby Keene in the show. He was a handsome man and a good tennis player. He was really eager to help the police and tried to answer the questions as accurately as possible. George Bartlett was also a guest at the hotel. He was a dumb man who did not remember or pretended not to remember anything about the night when Ruby was
"Anna Karenina" Lev Tolstoi Part 1 The novel opens with a scene introducing Prince Stepan Arkadyevitch Oblonsky, "Stiva", a Moscow aristocrat and civil servant who has been unfaithful to his wife Darya Alexandrovna, nicknamed "Dolly". Dolly has discovered his affair - with the family's governess - and the house and family are in turmoil. Stiva's affair and his reaction to his wife's distress shows an amorous personality that he cannot seem to suppress. In the midst of the turmoil, Stiva reminds the household that his married sister, Anna Arkadyevna Karenina is coming to visit from Saint Petersburg. Meanwhile, Stiva's childhood friend Konstantin Dmitrievich Levin ("Kostya") arrives in Moscow with the aim of proposing to Dolly's youngest sister Princess Ekaterina Alexandrovna Shcherbatskaya, "Kitty". Levin is a passionate, restless but shy aristocratic landowner who, unlike his Moscow friends, chooses to live in the country on his large estate. He discovers that Kitty is also be
Pride and Prejudice Questionnaire · Task 1: watch the movie to the end on You Tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6RI7Rb2g6k · and answer the questions: 1. What was the relationship between Mr. Wickham and Mr. Darcy (what kind of common past did they share)? Both had grown up in the same area and under the protection of grand old Mr.Darcy, who had raised two boys equally as his sons. Two childhood friends parted immediately after old Mr.Darcy's death in arguings over money, power and honour (which one Wicham- had less in tons). · Mr. Darcy seemed to be an utterly arrogant, cold- and careless-natured man to strangers. Once you got to know his true nature, you got to know one honest, loyal and fair man, who expressed his disgust for "false pearls" by keeping distance. Even though he so tended to escape from those worthy of his sympathy, too. Still, everything wonderful fascinated him de
I The Birth of Batman The creation of the fictional superhero Batman is credited to artist Bob Kane, even though in reality he was cocreated with writer Bill Finger. Batman first appeared in 1939 in Detective Comics #27. Since then Batman has been an important and influential character in the comic book universe. Publisher of DC Comics, Vin Sullivan was looking for something new for Detective Comics, which would be as intriguing as Superman had been in Action Comics, but it had to be something completely new. Sullivan's ideas inspired Kane, and he credits the creation of Batman as much to Sullivan as to himself. Kane's first image was very much a hero with birdlike wings, but during the process of drawing evolved into a more scallop
sees how other poeple are honest men and he commits several things he is not proud. He causes the death of his best friend, he buys him a box of hard liquer, his friend dies, leaving him his property. Hawley outlaws a banker, and he calls the immigration officials and he gets the shop. And of course he realizes he has done wrong, and he tries to commit suicide but changes his mind. Some people say that the end is very weak. His son is a schoolboy, wants his father to write an essay for him. The beginning of action coinsides with eastern, the passion of christ. This is when Ethans own passion symbolically begins. His final downfall coinsides with the 4th of July. The most important christain holiday and political holiday somehow frame Ethans change and it shows that corruption is all persuasive. And in this sense it is allegorical, that there is nothing holy, not eastern, not 4th of july, everyone is corrupt
1. Beowulf. The dating of Beowulf is still controversial. The poem is one of the earliest and greatest monuments of the Germanic literatures. The main stories of the poem (the fights of B.) are versions of common folk-tales, but the poet also introduces many incidental stories, some of which belong to the world of ancient Germanic legend. He writes his folk-tales and legends in a web of other events, mainly set in the Baltic Kingdoms. He shows a very rich and leisurely portrayal of this Baltic world, providing many customs like the close relationship between lord and man in the war-band and others. All this encouraged the supposition that the unknown author of the poem was himself a bard of the ancient type portrayed within the poem (a lord's scoop). However, many people propose that the author could be Christian poet, perhaps a monk, versed not only in old native traditions, but also in the culture and literature of the Latin Church, and whose purpose of writin
destiny in the Inferno. He feels that the entire poem clearly shows, that through love, Dante knew his characters, understood their suffering, and knew his characters desires. These traits and Dante's ability to express his dream caused Maritain to believe that Dante had the eye of a genuine novelist. Ezra Pound, an American poet and critic, believes that one hears far too much about Dante's Hell, and far too little about the Purgatorio, and Paradiso. Pound wrote an essay called "Dante" in his book, The Spirit of Romance written in 1952. He explains how Hell is the state of man who has lost the good of his intelligence, a state of man dominated by his passions. (129) Pound believes that Dante's Inferno should be approached with a "sense of irony." His use of simile is carried throughout the Inferno and enhances the effect and meaning of his experience in Hell. While it is natural for man to think of Hell as a place, Pound understands it as a
