Kansas City Star Ernest Hemingway
1,597 wordsMany of the titles of Ernest Hemingway's stories are ironic, and can be read on a number of levels; Soldier's Home is no exception. Our first impression, having read the title only, is that this story will be about a old soldier living out the remainder of his life in an institution where veterans go to die. We soon find out that the story has nothing to do with the elderly, or institutions; rather, it tells the story of a young man, Harold Krebs, only recently returned from World War I, who has...

635 wordsThe student of Blake's moods might construct from the fragmentary record of the years after 1800 a theory of the pulse of Blake's whole mental life; might suspect that Blake was swung his life long up and down to the rhythm of the alternation from elation to depression to elation (Bruce 86) BLAKE, in other words, was neurotic. He fell into "melancholy, -- melancholy without any real reason"; he oscillated violently from moods of deepest depression to moods of highest exaltation; hours of perfect...

666 wordsOthello Criticism - S. T. Coleridge & Charles Lamb From todays prospective, there is no doubt that Shakespeare's tragedy Othello has properties of political incorrectness. Yet, this masterpiece cant be simply banned from public libraries, like it would happen to works of less famous authors, had they clearly associated evil with a dark color of skin. Nevertheless, something had to be done to purify Shakespeare's original intentions. Thats why there are numerous critics that try explaining author...
