The way Descartes chose to write this piece
literature captivated me. Descartes was a very
intelligent man who wanted to make sense of the
world he lived in. The format he used was unusual.
It seems to me that he may have used this format,
which is a replication of the book of Genesis in
the Bible, to have a deeper and more profound
impact on the reader. There are many similarities
between Descartes Meditations and the first book
of the Bible, Genesis. For example, Descartes
Meditations was writ...

Road Less Traveled Frosts Poems
1,227 words
Robert Frost, perhaps the greatest American poet
of the twentieth century, has brought himself
great recognition. Many critics have tried to find
a faulty side to his writing, but they have had a
difficult time because his writing romanticizes
the rural simplicity that he loved while probing
into the mysteries of the universe (Estep 2).
Three areas of criticism covered are: a speakers
decision in choosing, a poem broken down into
three sections, and Frosts use of metaphors and
style in his writi...
