000 Years Ago 100 000 Years
1,057 wordsAnthropologists today are debating two sides to the story of the evolution of the modern human Homosapian spin. The sides agree on two different theories called the Out of Africa theory and the Multiregional (or Candelabra) theory.

Bigger Thomas Society Forces

Nineteen Eighty Four Animal Farm
1,108 wordsAnimal Farm was written between November 1943 and February 1944, but was not published until August 1945, principally as a result of political objections that arose over the book's attack on Stalin and the Soviet Union. It was turned down by a number of publishers in England (including T. S. Eliot at Faber and Faber) and America.

Alice In Wonderland Identity Crisis

J D Salinger Catcher In The Rye
909 wordsThere's far more to the censorship issue than a ban on sex and four-letter words. I sometimes think that those of us who need to be the most clearheaded about these matters are planting the very trees that obscure our view of the forest, " says Dorothy Briley. According to Briley, a vast amount more is needed than simply vulgar language and suggestive material to censor a novel. But this is the very reason why J. D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye is frequently being banned from high schools. ...
