Dont Thesaurusize. The second trap into which many
students fall is thinking that big words make good
essays. Advanced vocabulary is fine if it comes
naturally to you, and when used correctly in an
appropriate context. After reading thousands of
essays, admissions officers know which students
have come up with difficult words by themselves
and which have looked them up in a thesaurus.

Align Center One Point
960 words
Applicants often ignore transitions to their own
detriment. A good essay must use transitions
within paragraphs and especially between
paragraphs to preserve the logical flow of the
essay. An essay without good transitions is like a
series of isolated islands; the reader will
struggle to get from one point to the next. Use
transitions as bridges between your ideas. As you
move from one paragraph to the next, you should
not have to explain your story in addition to
telling it. If the transitions ...

Women In Chaucer Canterbury Tales
1,184 words
Women throughout the ages have had diverse
personalities, and their various behaviors are
significantly depicted in Geoffrey Chaucer's
Canterbury Tales. He tells of several women; two
are among the travelers on the pilgrimage to
Canterbury and the others are characters in
numerous tales during the journey. The Wife of
Bath, the old woman in the Wife of Baths Tale, and
Griselda, a character in the Clerks Tale, each
exemplify the divergent roles of women in the
fourteenth century. These women are ...

H 2 >Discuss ways in which memory is explored Mean time is, in essence, a collection of poems
concerned with history and memory throughout the
anthology. Carol Ann Duffy uses many literary and
thematic devices to explore the theme of memory
such as the dramatic monologue which enables the
socialisation of self who can then speak without
the fear of censorship; objectivity of viewpoints.
It provides disassociation for the poet from the
persona in which they are speaking thus making the

Line Of Work Canterbury Tales
956 words
Today, when we hear the word monk, it often brings
up the image of an old man wearing a brown robe
with a shaved head. While this image is based on
some level of fact, it is certainly not what the
Monk in Chaucer's Prologue to the Canterbury Tales
is like. Instead, Chaucer presents a monk who goes
against all stereotypes, ignoring traditions,
engaging in hunting, and even indulging in
materialistic goods. This portrayal leads many
readers to conclude that the Monk is a man of bad
character, beca...

Reign In Hell Character Of Satan
1,164 words
Satan, as a character, has been satirized, mocked
and made foolish in our modern world. John Milton,
however, presents quite a different Satan from the
devil-on-your-shoulder image people are used to
seeing. In Paradise Lost, Milton draws on the
Bible for his source of Satan's character, thereby
creating a horrifyingly corrupt Satan. Despite
this portrayal, readers often find themselves
sympathizing with Satan's cause, and his
determination, viewing him as a hero for his
cause, as evidenced by h...

W W Norton Norton Anthology Of English Literature

William Wordsworth's description of his poetry in
Preface to Lyrical Ballads gives the impression
that it feel much like a modern newspaper to a
reader; basic and with wide appeal. He emphasizes
the idea of simplicity and familiarity of both
topic and language, arguing the superiority of a
poem that appeals to the common person. However,
despite the value placed on simplicity, his poems
are far above what many readers would perceive to
be elementary. This is demonstrated by the fact
that his poe...

organization seems to be the hardest to teach

Fiend Like Queen Act 2 Scene 2

H 2 >"this dead butcher and his fiend-like queen."
Is this a fair comment on the characters of the
Macbeth's? Malcolm said this. There
is bias. Macbeth kills his father Duncan. Malcolm
should be king instead of Macbeth. Macbeth seizes
power by force. Also, Macbeth brings chaos and
destruction to Scotland (his homeland). Therefore,
Malcolm makes a subjective comment on the
Macbeth's that they are "butcher" and "fiend-like
queen." However, it contains some truth in it.
