The acts of cannibalism and infanticide are very
apparent in the behavior of the chimpanzee. Many
African studies show that wild chimpanzees kill
and eat infants of their own species (Goodall,
1986: 151). Although there is not a clear answer
why chimps engage in this very violent and
sometimes gruesome behavior there are many ideas
and suggestions. This essay will deal with
chimpanzee aggression, cannibalism and
infanticide. This paper will present information
on major research studies performed...

Human Beings Human Spirit

Throughout the semester, a theme that has guided
our thoughts has been the idea that the self is
the capacity to have capacities. Through what we
have read, written about, and discussed, we have
been trying to come up with our own answers to the
questions about the self; what a capacity is, how
we find them, which ones are essential to human
flourishing, what we do with them once they are
found? Yet all of these questions lead us to
answer that final and defining question of 'what
is the 'truth'...

... ey consume the heart and involve the human

engage our emotions and help us to uncover what
makes us tick. They help us to set our spirits
free and let them soar to great heights. However,
if we always take action by what our passion tells
us, it can quickly become a weakness. Although
passion intensifies our emotions of love and
goodness, it also enhances our other emotions of
hatred and jealousy. It clouds the mind with

Playing by Society's Rules Wharton's The Age of
Innocence depicts Ellen Olenska as a perfect
example of courage and strength because of her
desire to go against society and the degradation
of women. Through the narrative eyes of Newland
Archer, the reader sees a woman like no other
woman (102). Ellen Olenska is much like
Hawthorne's Hester Prynne in the way she exhibits
courage and strength. As an outcast of a
hypocritical society, Ellen is worthy of the

Coleridge and the Explosion of Voice Coleridge is
so often described in terms which are akin to the
word, explosive, and by all accounts he was at
times an unusually dynamic, charismatic and
unpredictable person. His writings themselves
could also be termed explosive merely from their
physical form; a fragmented mass, some pieces
finished but most not, much of his writing subject
to procrastination or eventual change of mind.
Today I want to address a moment in his life which

Lovers, Pauls intimacy with the women in his life
is complemented and analogous to his experiences
in nature. Throughout the development of the
novel, as intimacy is shared, it is only through
nature and natural elements that we see this
[intimacy] occur. This comparable relationship
with nature metaphorically symbolizes the intense
feelings Paul has for these women. With Pauls

many of his generation he has a direction. He
looks like any other 18 year old, but he is
different because in some way he has what many of
us lack: he knows what he wants. He wants to
