Gulliver Travels Royal Society
1,215 wordsGulliver in Houynhnmland One of the most interesting questions about Gulliver s Travels is whether the Houyhnhnms represent an ideal of rationality or whether on the other hand they are the butt of Swifts satire. In other words, in Book IV, is Swift poking fun at the talking horses or does he intends for us to take them seriously as the proper way to act? If we look closely at the way that the Houyhnhnms act, we can see that in fact Swift does not take them seriously: he uses them to show the da...

Murdered His Father Tragic Flaw
948 wordsHamlet Hamlets Hamartia Hamlets Hamartia Hamlet is the most written about tragedy in the history of man. But, why is it a tragedy? Is it because Hamlet has a tragic flaw that creates his downfall? Or is it that all the cards are stacked against him since the beginning of the play and there is no way he can prevail? I believe that it is a tragedy because of Hamlets tragic flaw. Hamlets tragic flaw is that he cannot act on impulse for things that require quick, decisive behavior, and that he acts ...

Science And Religion Religious Beliefs
560 wordsTo a certain extent the teaching of Heraclitus the fire priest of Ancient Greece, draw many parallels to modern science and religious beliefs. Heraclitus was to a degree unfocused in his work and somewhat mischievous in his teachings by providing stories, which could be considered slanderous inventions. However, Heraclitus has evidently provided both modern science and religion with a backbone for understanding aspects of both Death and Creation. Heraclitus clearly fueled the ideology or at leas...
