Robert E Lee Killer Angels
1,421 wordsDrive half an hour north of Washington, D. C. and you will find verdant rolling hills and flat, rich farmland, broken here and there by granite outcroppings and dark poplar forests. A place of great beauty and serenity. Close your eyes a moment, efface the houses and stores and gas stations from your mind's eye, and it looks pretty much as it did in July, 1863. That summer its green fields were stained red with the blood of 50, 000 Americans dead and wounded. 50, 000. In just three days of slaug...

Shug Avery Sexual Relations

U S Census Bureau Education And Training
972 wordsHunger in America is not a food issue; it is an economic issue. There is plenty of food to go around.

World A Better Place Forms Of Government
443 wordsOne thing I'd change to make the world a better place A world driven by a democracy.

U Po Kyin Po Kyin Book
403 wordsI was intrigued by how the writer George Orwell portrayed each character's personality. Each character had their own unique characteristic. For example, Mr. Floury's character was unique in every aspect imaginable, by the way he tries to help Dr. Veraswami's get elected in the club. He was not always positive, but in some instances he was cruel. There was a demeanor about him that was portrayed very well from start to finish. The arrival of the bobbed blonde, Elizabeth Lackersteen, not only show...

U Po Kyin Po Kyin Flory
647 wordsImagine crossing E. M. Forster with Jane Austen. Stir in a bit of socialist doctrine, a sprig of satire, strong Indian curry, and a couple quarts of good English gin and you get something close to the flavor of George Orwell's intensely readable and deftly plotted Burmese Days. Orwell uses his own Anglo-Indian background to show the smothering pettiness and suffocating heat that are the basis for colonial life: "Mr. MacGregor told his anecdote about Price, which could be produced in almost any c...

Lies In The Fact King Lear
1,125 wordsShakespeare's dynamic use of irony in King Lear aids the microcosmic illustration of not only 16 th century Britain, but of all times and places. The theme that best develops this illustration is the discussion of fools and their foolishness. This discussion allows Shakespeare not only to portray human nature, but also to elicit a sort of Socratic introspection into the nature of society's own ignorance as well. One type of fool that Shakespeare involves in King Lear is the immoral fool. Edmund,...
