The Tragic Hero In Antigone
1,454 words
The Tragic Hero in the Play Antigone Antigone,
which was written by Sophocles, is possibly the
first written play that still exists today (www.
image 1). There is much controversy between who
the tragic hero is in the play. Some people say
Antigone, some say Creon, others even say Haemon.
I believe Creon displays all of the
characteristics of a tragic hero. He receives
compassion through the audience, yet recognizes
his weaknesses, and his downfalls from his own
self-pride, stubbornness, and con...

The Chartist Movement was one of rights. The
workers felt they had worked hard for the rights
than those of higher classes had. However, they
were not arguing for more money or more land, all
they wanted was universal suffrage. The workers
believed it was time to put the unrest, to rest.
Their continued beliefs were that universal
suffrage was the best thing for public confidence
and safety. In the National Petition dated 1839,
the working-class opened their plea with a
powerful statement. When ...

First World War Passive Resistance
1,226 words
The German economies were beset with difficulties
throughout the whole of the 1920 s. The huge
expenditure of the First World War had exhausted
Germany's economic strength. The need for manpower
had reduced industrial production along with grain
production. Outputs in all areas were severely
reduced. The subsequent loss of the war resulted
in demands for reparations by the victors. These
demands were harsh to say the least and the
problems Germany faced in paying it contributed to
what was argua...

While administering hypnosis to patients suffering
from hysteria, Freud realized that this practice
was not a cure, but just a temporary fix. It was
this event that created the framework for Freud's
idea of the subconscious, repression vs.
aggression, dreams, and civilization. The basis of
his theory is that the mind is separated into two
main factions: the conscious and the subconscious.
The conscious being what we know to be happening
and the unconscious is what is in our mind that we
do not n...

... y suppressed the seduction theory for
prudential reasons, then said something equally
outrageous about infantile sexuality. Odd, if
Freud was trying to be a conformist and avoid
opprobrium. In my view Sulloway does not succeed.
At the end of his book there is a section called
'Catalogue of Major Freud Myths'. That is probably
where the term paranoia crept into my sense of his
approach, since about twenty-three of the myths

the relationship between equality and liberty is
altogether faulty. Libertarians must think it
important that people should have liberty. Given
this, questions would immediately arise regarding:

liberty. The libertarian proposal has to be
