Shows His Lack Shows His Lack Of Understanding Socrates
575 words
In Plato's Phaedo, Socrates is explaining to his

recollection of things from a previous life.
Socrates uses this as a way to comfort his
friends. Based on this, according to Socrates, if

known something about what it is they are learning
about. If a human being has known something
without having been taught it (in this life), they
must have learned it before their birth. If the
soul existed prior t...

of Lord of the Flies so far? (Having read up to
page 47) Firstly, I intend to explain why, over
anything else, Golding s reflection of the
macrocosm within a microcosm has particularly
intrigued me. I also hope to convey my interest in

Stoops To Conquer Makes The Play
1,747 words
She Stoops to Conquer is a comedy play written by
Oliver Goldsmith. It has been loved since it was
written. When it was first performed, some people
did not approve of it as it attacked the normal
sort of play style at the time, which was
sentimental comedy. Personally I think the play is
very whimsical and funny both on stage acted and
just the words used. Sentimental comedy involved
characters to be very typical, for example, the
heroine was shy and romantic, the hero was brave
and bold, and r...
