Normative Ethics Literary Critic
3,365 words... s of good and evil of our actions have a truth-value; the necessity of choosing what one is actually doing, rather than just responding to a situation; actions are to be in accordance with rules; and these rules are universally applicable to moral agents.

Waiting For Godot Second Act
1,193 words"Nothing to be done, " is one of the many phrases that is repeated again and again throughout Samuel Beckett's Waiting For Godot. Godot is an existentialist play that reads like somewhat of a language poem. That is to say, Beckett is not interested in the reader interpreting his words, but simply listening to the words and viewing the actions of his perfectly mismatched characters. Beckett uses the standard Vaudevillian style to present a play that savors of the human condition. He repeats phras...

Iambic Pentameter Emily Dickinson
2,820 wordsWhat is Poetry? What is poetry? What is a poem? How can you tell the difference between poetry and prose?

Hip Hop Music Pop Art
2,076 wordsPop Art and Sampling In Pop art, reproduction and repetition are the main aspects that distinguish it from other art movements. Andy Warhols Marilyn is a perfect example of reproduction of image already familiar to the audience, and is repeated once, four times, or twenty times. Pop art takes from commercial art and makes it the elite art as well. That is why Pop art is so special, because it can be distinguished by the mainstream, not just the elite art world. Reproductions provide references t...

Quot Quot Poem Quot
7,301 wordsMutlu Kong Blazing " One Art" not only effects such poetic reversals but exposes them as affected.
