Medieval Literature And Poetry Illuminated Manuscripts
966 wordsThe Middle Ages was a period of about one thousand years, between the collapse of the Roman Empire during the fifth century AD and the revival of classical art and learning known as the Renaissance around the fifteenth century. During this dark and chaotic period small groups of devout Christians could live with security and pursue a religious life. These people were doing something that almost no one else could do at the time- reading and writing. They were making something that almost no one e...

Hedda Gabler Psychoanalysis And The Space Of Play
2,136 wordsHEDDA GABLER, PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE SPACE OF (THE) PLAY by Nigel Hand The established view of Hedda Gabler sees the play as a study of the frustration and despair engendered in the exceptional individual by a conventionalized society. In this paper I present a psychoanalytic re-interpretation of the play which in certain respects inverts this received reading. Insofar as it does so, however, my interpretation is intended not to cancel the received view but to play against it. The first section ...

Tom Buchanan Daisy Voice
1,651 words... heats up, furthering suspense while placing untested characters in such boiling heat that their lives can find expression only in explosive release or resignation. Their tempers flare as the temperature rises and it is not until they lose their composure that anything begins to cool. In Fitzgerald's stylish hands, heat functions to shape plot and test character. His acute recognition of the role of atmosphere in both furthering conflict and testing character is illustrated by his unwavering ...

Make A Good Sci Fi
1,089 wordsSo, you just wrote your first science fiction novel. Your friend read it and told you that you were the next Ray Bradbury or Gene Roddenberry. Your fertile mind fantasizes your name up there on a Borders wall poster right next to images of Isaac Azimov and Jules Verne. Before going off the deep end and equating yourself with Hemingway and Steinbeck, give your ego a stiff reality check. Few of us mortals are literary Mozart's that can plop down in front of a computer screen and author a perfect m...

Plug Ins Dialog Box
1,670 wordsManuScript is a simple, music-based programming language developed to write plug-ins for the Sibelius music processor. It is based on Simkin, an embedded scripting language developed by Simon Whiteside (web), and has been extended by him and Graham Westlake.

2,178 words... 1974, p. 51). Slipping virtually unnoticed into a world where the culture industry churned out products that, as Adorno would later observe, looked more like advertisements for books than actual books (Adorno, 1992, p. 20), the strange volume that Horkheimer and Adorno passed on to their colleagues was one of those books that could no longer be one. Its title confessed what its unusual form of dissemination implied: here was a collection of fragments, incomplete and perhaps even contradictor...

Institute For Social Research Horkheimer And Adorno
2,004 wordsJonathan Swifts satire of the use of reason during the Enlightenment For most people Jonathan Swift is nothing more than the man who wrote Gulliver's Travels - or, to be more precise, the author of the first part of that strange satire. For Brobdinbnag, Laura and the land of the Houyhnhnms are distant countries of which we know little or nothing at all. And even Lemuel Gulliver's enforced stay on the island of Lilliput is often regarded as best suited to children with a taste for fairy tales. Vi...

18 Th Century Gods Existence
4,866 wordsHumes Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion ranks among the greatest writings in the history of Western philosophy. The work addresses the sensitive issue of the knowledge we have of God through reason alone, and, in the process, Hume presents arguments which undermine the classic proofs for Gods existence. The arguments in the Dialogues assume an important 18 th century distinction between natural religion and revealed religion. Natural religion involves knowledge of God drawn from nature, sole...

Wilsons Garage Tom Buchanan
1,850 wordsWhen F. Scott Fitzgerald turns on the heat in Gatsby, he amplifies a single detail into an element of function and emphasis that transforms neutral landscapes into oppressive prisms. Through these prisms which distort and color the lives of Fitzgeralds characters, we see why humans elation's are, as Nick Carraway describes them, short winded (Gatsby 2). Heat is the antithesis of Jay Gatsby. It is symptomatic of his undoing, his nemesis. As he suited up in his cool demeanor time and time again, p...

Fitzgerald Has Created Wilsons Garage
3,251 wordsNICK CARRAWAY has a special place in this novel. He is not just one character among several, it is through his eyes and ears that we form our opinions of the other characters. Often, readers of this novel confuse Nicks stance towards those characters and the world he describes with those of F. Scott Fitzgeralds because the fictional world he has created closely resembles the world he himself experienced. But not every narrator is the voice of the author. Before considering the gap between author...

Quot Quot Waste Land
4,657 wordsRichard Ellen Pounds criticism of The Waste Land was not of its meaning; he liked its despair and was indulgent of its neo-Christian hope. He dealt instead with its stylistic adequacy and freshness. For example, there was an extended, unsuccessful imitation of The Rape of the Lock at the beginning of " The Fire Sermon. " It described the lady Fresca (imported to the waste land from " Gerontion" and one day to be exported to the States for the soft drink trade). Instead of mak...

Learned To Read Fifteenth Century
2,250 wordsI believe that everyone has heard the phrase, The pen is mightier than the sword. This statement I cannot argue, but the point I want to make is that the printing press is the mightiest of them all. The origin of printing itself was only the first stage in the development of books as we know them. To understand the modern book, one should know of its history and realize the gradual process it came from since the pre-written manuscript. THERE WERE FOUR DISTINCT PHASES IN THIS METAMORPHOSIS (Butle...
