Drop Off Point Miles That Day Water
1,196 words
I remember exactly what I felt as I stepped out of
the truck and into the afternoon sunlight. I was
at Lehigh Gap, a drop-off point where the
Appalachian Trail meets highway 873 near Leighton.
A group of friends and I were being dropped off to
begin our three day journey to Eckville, another
drop-off point southwest of there. I turned to
face the trail and was surprised to see quite
possibly the steepest hill I had ever seen. As a
matter of pure coincidence, this was the summer of
1999, the year...

Semiological Approach Index Ical Film
605 words
There are several approaches to the film criticism
and each approach provides us with certain
information about the movie. Altogether, these
approaches allow us to construct a complete
characteristic or critique of a film and make it

the movie on that subconscious level, which makes
that special impact on the viewer. The word
semiology is derived fr...

the significance of the buzzing fly in relation to
the dying person, and second, what is the meaning
of the double use of " see" in the last

these apparent obscurities, and a close parallel
found in another Dickinson poem reinforces such
interpretation. In an atmosphere of outward quiet
and inner calm, the dying person collectedly
