that lifts the spirits as the short, dark days of
winter become the longer, sunnier days of spring.
But, have you ever noticed the decrease of energy
during the fall and winter month? Doctors first
noticed this opposite, annual winter depression,
150 years ago, but the condition remained a theory
until the early 1980 s, when researchers began
linking the darkening of peoples winter moods to
the lack of sunlight from November through March.

Ethan Frome Universal Themes
847 words
The hundreds of pages in a typical novel come
together to form an intricate web, whose many
strands may be united in the minds of readers to
form different interpretations. In many cases,
authors represent important issues or most
relevant themes with symbols or metaphors. Often
these small symbols can be overlooked easily in a
lengthy novel. But as Edith Wharton brilliantly
demonstrates in her novel Ethan Frome, one way to
effectively emphasize a book's key symbol is
through the story's setting...

William Shakespeare William Blake

Comparative analysis of poems by W. Blake and W.
Shakespeare Someone has said that everything
genial is very simple. However, some people would
also argue that the more difficult the poem is,
the more valuable it becomes to the reader. In
their poems, both William Blake and William
Shakespeare were able to unite simplicity of
expressions and complication of symbols into two
beautiful poems. These poems are rather different,
if compared to each other, as are their composers.
William Blake, an Eng...

Tale Shakespeare
6,911 words
By examining Shakespeare? s treatment of familial
ties in his plays The Life and Death of King John
and The Winter? s Tale, we can see how his
attitudes and opinions towards family
relationships evolved. In King John (written
between 1594 and 1596), Shakespeare adopts what
was then a fairly conventional attitude towards
family relationships: his characters never
question the highly patriarchal family hierarchy.
They also assume that the majority of wives will
be unfaithful, simply because they a...

Medieval Europe Social Ladder
1,790 words
MEDIEVAL FAMINE Agriculture during the medieval
time was a very complex system. The weather played
a major role in the harvest. A week of unpleasant
rain in May, followed by an abnormal cold, humid
summer might have thrown off the summer harvest,
resulting in a shortfall of food. Due to a surplus
left over from the previous harvest, no one went
hungry. But after a couple of bad harvests, the
surplus began to run out. This happened in Europe
in 1044. The Famine reared its ugly head, in part,
caus...
