Space And Time Intelligent Life
1,052 words
The scientific community is largely in agreement
on the fact that life began here on Earth about
three and a half billion years ago. In a universe
ruled over largely by entropy, it is inane to say
that any set of circumstances could be completely
unique. The primordial constituents of Earths
atmosphere gave way to the building blocks of
life, as could and in all likelihood has happened
elsewhere in the vastness of space and time. Since
the dawn of mankind, we have looked to the stars

Mid Nineteenth Century Life And Death

In Memoriam is an elegy to Tennyson's friend
Arthur Hallam, but bears the hallmark of its mid
nineteenth century context - "the locus classics

reflection, Hallam's tragic death has proved to be
an event that provoked Tennyson's embarkation upon
a much more ambitious poetic project than
conventional Miltonian elegy, involving meditation
upon the profoundest questions faced by mankind.
