Arthur Becomes King Arthur And Bernie Hero
482 words
Hero. When we think of a hero, what automatically
comes to mind? To some it may be someone
legendary. Others might think of a hero as someone
of great strength or ability. Perchance an
illustrious soldier or warrior. Perhaps someone
admired for their achievements and great
qualities. To me, it once meant someone that
showed great courage. Two characters that remind
me of heroes are Bernie, from the movie Hero, and
Arthur, from the story Arthur Becomes King. These
two characters have many similar...

age sixteen and wrote his most popular works
between 1865 and 1876. Indeed, on the surface

Greek And Roman Character Types

When watching the television show Gilligan's
Island there are some features that are
reminiscent of the Greek and Roman theatre. For

the action of the show starts to kind of catch the
audience up to speed and give them a little
background to help them understand what the
situation is when the episode begins. This is
similar to the role that the Greek chorus played.

Brave New World George Orwell

In the novels 1984 by George Orwell and Brave New
World by Aldous Huxley, the two societies have

war (only in 1984), there is great prosperity. In
both cases, the societies exist in many similar
ways, such as the evident hierarchies and castes,
and the ever-present means of population control.
These societies, though, are established and
maintained in different manners, such as the

In his play, Death and the Kings Horseman, We
Soyinka would have us examine every clash and
conflict, save for the one involving culture.
Certainly this may seem the most obvious part of
the play, but we would do the general
understanding of Death a disservice if we ignored
one of the central conflicts in the play. Every
element of the play is placed in terms of two
extremes, and the cultures must be considered one
of those pairs. Suicide is no exception to this
examination; it must be seen in t...
