whole show. Recorded on August 15, 1995, this was
at the height of the bands musical talent and at
the bottom step of their climb to fame. It was

Play Julius Caesar Caesar
872 words
The play Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare, or
as I prefer to believe Edward de Vere, introduces
many readers to a world where speeches are made on
many occasions. In this world of rhetoric,
persuasive oratory, speeches help people persuade
crowds. However, a crowd is not always persuaded

no supporting evidence, a crowd may not agree with
an orator. They may instead support the ideas of
another orator. In the play Julius Caesar, two
prominent...

Eternal Truth Fully Understand
1,665 words
Soren Kierkegaard is said to be one of the
founding fathers of existentialism. His style of
writing, his tone and vocabulary tie him closely
to another forerunner of existentialist thought:
Fyodor Dostoevsky (although either of them would
probably deny this vehemently). However, in the
course of his writings, Kierkegaard takes quite a
liberal and (dare I say it? ) individualistic
stand on the side of Christianity. In the passages
I have read of Kierkegaard (That Individual and
Truth is Subjectiv...

has been able to create a world where tragic
problems of society can be dealt with in a minor
