Greek Culture Trojan War

The life of Heinrich Schliemann embodies the era
of scientific discovery in the late eighteen
hundreds. His is a tale of success, and that of
man turned to myth. From a meager upbringing, he
achieved success in business, and went on to make
some of the most impacting archeological
discoveries in the nineteenth century. Though
copious amounts have been written on Schliemann,
the accounts differ greatly, varying from hero to
charlatan. From Schliemann's biographers, it

Ides Of March Julius Caesar
1,534 words
The time before Caesar's death has many
differences in how events happened rather than if
events happened. Both historical accounts record
that Caesar had recently returned from a long
military campaign that sent him to the far reaches
of the Roman Empire. Shakespeare's account tells
of a recent victory over Pompey but does not say
that Caesar returned from a massive campaign. In
Komroff's account, The conspirators had planned
for much longer than the other authors recorded.
Komroff wrote that t...

is real and what is fiction of these two very old
books? They were written many years ago, both with
many different versions, and in different
languages with slight variations. While it is
claimed that Sumerians wrote Gilgamesh as early as

Smoking Marijuana Vietnam War
2,529 words
Most people in our society think of the Vietnam
War as a tragedy, or a negative time in our
history that was later viewed as a misstep. These
comments are true and most-certainly conventional.
However, does the average person realize how large
of an impact it had on the men who fought? When
questioned on the Vietnam War, it can be rightly
assumed that many Americans would know that it
lasted over a decade. Maybe even a few would know
that over 14, 000 U. S. troops were killed in
1968, alone, (Ap...

Americans drink a beer to relax. The current
