Women writer's influence on our society Estonian women writer's history doesn't go far back. The reason for that is that people were slaves back then. Even if there were writers, then most weren't famous and they wrote poems and stories more for themselves. Also being a woman and a writer wasn't considered as a decent job for a woman at that time. The stories that we have from that time were given to one another by talking and mostly we don't know who were the authors. Education was also very expensive so only rich people could get it and Estonians, who were just farmers, mostly didn't have money for that. First I am going to talk about Marie Heiberg

For example, if I go to England I shall be able to speak English there. If I go to the USA, I shall speak English too, because English is used not only in England, but also in other parts of the world. I leran English because I want to read foreign literature in the original. I know and like such English as Ch.Dickens, M.Twain, L.Carroll and others. I understand that I must learn English. If I know English well, shall be able to go to the library and take books by English and American writers in the original. I like to travel. But it is difficult to visit countries, when you don´t know the language of these countries. If I know the language of the country, where I am going to, it will be easy to travel there. I lke to read books. And I like to read newspaper too. If I know, for example, English I´ll be able to read ,,The Morning Star". I know, that it is a very popular newspaper. Knowledge of foreign languages helps us to develop friendship and understanding among the people

Characteristics of Romantic age: The Romantic Age is a term used to describe life and literature in England in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. -Imagination was very important Like William Blake an English poet has said "I know that this world is a World of Imagination and Vision" -Belief and appreciating nature -Independency Writers placed the individual, rather than society, at the center of their vision. The assertion of nationalism became a central theme of Romantic age. Literature Emergence of new ideas and positive voices. Emphasis was women and children, the heroic isolation of the artist or narrator, and respect for nature. Some writings were also based on the supernatural. Belief in the possibility of progress. Writers tended to be optimists and espoused democratic values. Importance of feeling and imagination.

media. Graffiti appeared regularly in popular video clips, music and books. Films such as " Style Wars" by Tony Silver and Henry Chalfant, “Wild Style” by Charlie Ahearn described and promoted aerosol culture and young artists like Zephyr, Dondi White, Lee and Seen were now considered like rock stars by the emerging Hip Hop european scene. Henry Chalfant and Martha Cooper book "Subway Art" quickly became the bible of graffiti art for the young writers and b-boys from Los Angeles to Amsterdam. By 1987, Chalfant second book “Spraycan art” documented the movement on walls across the world. By the late 80’s, the European scene was long established and in full force. Writers from both continents were now meeting up regularly and exchanging information through black books and photos of their work on trains and walls. The biggest artistic movement of all times was now born and kids from all around are still painting aerosol art today

We live in a modern world, where information is crucial and selling, therefore keeping a blog on the Internet is a big attraction for readers. Furthermore, there are all kinds of journals on the web, for example food sites, where people can find many recipes for different meals. Also, fashion blogs, which can give inspiration if wondering what to wear for some kind of an occasion. Not only are the blogs entertaining, they can also be very helpful and useful. The writers of the blogs get attraction from the amount of readers and clicks, which their page gets. Some blog-writers sign contracts with various advertising agencies, so they get money for each click that their site gets. This drives the blog-keepers to write. Another great benefit that keeping a blog brings the writer - fame. The more widespread your blog becomes, the more people will recognize your name. One blog, which I really enjoy reading is my colleague's photo blog.

Which Kinds of Journalism Students are the Ones Who Succeed? It's the end of another semester at the college where I teach, and as I contemplate doing final grades for my journalism classes I find myself thinking about what makes one student successful and another less so. What's the secret formula for doing well in journalism school, and then translating that into a career in the news business? Is it writing ability? Some of my students are naturally gifted writers, the types who always did well in English classes and took a journalism course because they loved to write or were encouraged to do so by one of their teachers.

It was begun between 1042 and 1065 when the English king Edward the Confessor built a church on the site where the abbey now stands. In 1245, King Henry III began work on the main part of what is now Westminster Abbey. Poets' Corner in the Abbey is a place where Britain's greatest writers are either buried or remembered with a memorial plaque. Spenser, Dickens, Kipling and many other great writers are buried there. William Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde and others are remembered by memorial plaques. Great scientists like Newton and Darwin and famous military men are buried in other parts of the Abbey.

material things, they can not speak, they can not do anything to you, they just lay on the table, then how they can influence your life sometimes so much? They are all written by humans. But the interesting thing actually is, that in his lifetime, human being is the smartest on this planet and can make big things, but this is all transient. Humans die. But if human creates something, for example, a book, then it may live centuries. Books are like the continuation of the book writers life. Human's mind can forget, but if the book is in the bookshelf and your name is on the cover, then it will not disappear anywhere. You may "live" thousands of years. The thing what changes everything, is the content of the book. There may be a lot of rubbish between the covers, but also intriguing stories. The book is a good way of expressing your thoughts and feelings. And the positive side is, that you do not have to speak. You put your thoughts on the paper and just publish it

to deal with Richard II as a king and as a person was Bishop Stubbs. Stubbs argued that towards the end of his reign, Richard's mind "was losing its balance altogether" even though there is no basis for assuming the king suffered from mental illness he showed clear signs of a narcissistic personality, and towards the end of his reign "Richard's grasp on reality was becoming weaker". Richard promised to bring an end to the Hundred Years' War that Edward III had started. Writers agreed that Richard was a "most beautiful king", though with a "face which was white, rounded and feminine", implying he lacked manliness. He was athletic and tall; when his tomb was opened in 1871 he was found to be six feet tall. He was also intelligent and well read, but when agitated he had a tendency to stammer. Richard nevertheless enjoyed tournaments, as well as hunting. Reign- Valitsemisaeg Agitated- Erutunud Altogether- Täiesti Stammer- Kokutama
Sharles visited America twice, where he gave lectures, raised support for copyright laws, and recorded many of his impressions of America. In 1835 he met and became engaged to Catherine Hogarth.
