billowy flames. "Help, help, somebody please!" I
slowly moved towards the sound being careful to

choking me. I could see a faint outline of a face
across the deck. It was Tom, my lifelong friend
and companion. He was completely surrounded by the
bright flame...

H G Wells Time Traveller

... disposition. The only way the Time Traveller
changed throughout the story was in his knowledge
of the future of mankind. This knowledge, I
believe, made him more prepared and confident in
his own time and place. However, he needed not be
confident, for in the end, he didnt stay in his
own place for long. Though the Time Traveller was
the main character in the story, the narrator was
probably the most important. He was one of the men
at every dinner, so his insights into the story
were very a...

Kubla Khan, by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, is one of
the most enigmatic and ambiguous pieces of

laudanum (an opiate) induced dream, the author
claims to have been planning a two hundred to
three hundred line poem before he got interrupted
by a man from Pollock, after which he had
forgotten nearly all of his dream. This may have
been merely an excuse, and the poem was scorned at
the time for having no poetic value, one critic
even going so far as to...

End Of The Year George Harrison

Probably the most popular, influential and
enduring rock group of all time, the Beatles
almost single-handedly reshaped rock 'n' roll from
a genre of throwaway singles by faceless stars to
an artistic medium with recognizable images and

rather than a single individual. They also set an
example for all rock acts to follow with their

their record company and management on many

the intention of this paper to make a very humble
contribution to this debate. This paper is
