One of the most famous philosophers of all times,
Socrates, was put to trial in Athens around 347

in other new divinities which were not traditional
to the city. In this paper, I will assess the

... ear and simple and no characters in either
show any respectable moral values. There are
practically no differences between Shakespeare and
Chaucer's version, only that Shakespeare added in
many new scenes, making his more descriptive and

Decameron, specifically Day III, Story 9, is
almost certain to be the chief source used by
Shakespeare in writing All's Well That Ends Well.
However, Shakespeare probably used the English

Franz Kafka was different, a man bent on
portraying changes everywhere. Kafka was also a
man consumed by death, consumed by the fact that
he might eventually die. One man who was greatly
affected by his fathers negligence of him, and a
social deviance about him which held him back from
interaction. Such a man was so afraid about what
society thought of his writing, that he never
widely published his works, and even asked a
friend to burn all manuscripts. Not only was Kafka
Jewish, he resented th...

philosophers, whatever their intellectual
attitudes towards astrology may have been, were

the idea of the Music of the Spheres, the idea
that these vast objects twirling around and

they went along their courses, much as a ball spun
