... d the different speech communities I found
within the shows I discovered the three categories
that James Britton discusses in The English
Language: An Owners Manual. By the end of my
viewing process I became very familiar with
expressive, transactional, and poetic language.
Both shows used each of these three categories,
although it was in two very separate mannerisms.
As Britton stated, expressive language tends to be
spontaneous and unrehearsed, and it represents the
closest association wi...

sane person when ever he is with a non guilty
party. Hamlet is clearly sane though because he
acknowledges that he is putting on an act whenever
he is acting crazy. Hamlet is depicted as insane
in many scenes during the play. One instance in I,

Time She Spent Things In Life Poem

If you can't, does it follow that Descartes'
method of doubt is useless? It is very

world exists or not because we are dealing with
metaphysical philosophy. Metaphysical philosophy

English 67: Shakespeare Eating Words: Food for

Much Ado About Nothing, though a light-hearted
romp, is not without more complex dimension. In a
brief teasing exchange among the women, Margarets
sassy comment to Beatrice (IV. i. 79 - 92), though
a seemingly trivial passage, contains in a
nutshell one of the plays central themes.
Throughout the different scenarios, there is an
extended play on words having to do with the image
of food and eating. ...

by Willard Gaylin and Discrimination Goes On by
Robert H. Cohen. On Aids and Moral Duty says that
HIV positive individuals have a moral
responsibility to let others know they are HIV
positive to protect innocent people from
unknowingly contracting the virus. Discrimination
Goes On states that the discrimination of people
infected with HIV is very real and it would be
ignorant to force them to let everyone know of
their condition. It could even be...

descent, What comes of all your visions and your
fears? Poets and kings are but the clerks of Time.

Contemporary Literary Criticism Vol Theme Of The Book
1,816 words
The Themes of Slaughterhouse-Five The first theme
of Slaughterhouse-Five, and perhaps the most
obvious, is the war and its contrast with love,
beauty, humanity, innocence etc.
Slaughterhouse-Five, like Vonnegut's previous
books, manages to tell us that war is bad for us
and that it would be better for us to love one
another. To find the wars contrast with love is
quite difficult, because the book doesnt talk
about any couple that was cruelly torn apart by
the war (Billy didnt seem to love his wi...

modern Catholicism, the confession of sin, along
with the confession of faith, can be seen in
religious practices throughout the world. The
