Horemheb Takes One Point Article
635 wordsThe way this article is written, its almost as a story is being told with commentary of Egyptian scholars. This format makes it more interesting, and gives the article a larger scale. The whole idea that Akhenaten would go against the old Egyptian customs is intriguing. The article says that it is quite possible that he may have been the first person to attempt monotheism.

Brave New World Test Tubes
441 wordsThe lifestyle of the people created by Aldous Huxley in his novel, Brave New World, is, in many ways, a twisted reflection of our own society.
