William Carlos Williams The Imagist
1,589 wordsIt is said that people can create art in their unique way to express themselves. William Carlos Williams tried to capture the direct image of the object and cloud out its surroundings. He attempted to focus the poem on the subject in order to eliminate any irrelevant responses from its surroundings. Through language and imagery, William Carlos Williams uses certain objects in the world that would be poetic no matter how directly they are presented. He accomplishes this using imagism. According t...

Noble Eightfold Path Noble Truth
1,161 wordsToday's Western religions revolve around a central God that is one and the same for all of the followers of that religion.

Buddhism, one of the world's oldest religions, is one such instance. Buddhism, in fact, stresses a more individual approach to spirituality. In 563 B.

Class Discussion Problem Solving
1,330 wordsFrom the beginning of time it has been evident that as humans we function better in groups than individually (Joining pg. 4). The Cro-Magnons discovered early in time that they were more efficient and productive working in groups than when working independently. Once they pooled their resources, people, and knowledge the possibilities were endless. Until I read the text Joining Together, I had never given the concept of groups much thought. Now I realize that over the course of our entire life w...

Romeo And Juliet Feud Between The Two Families
797 wordsRomeo and Juliet is a play filled with lots of irony. It contains verbal irony, dramatic irony, however it is most famous for its ending witch is full of situational irony. The irony that I am describing is in Act 5, Scene 3. This is the climax of the play as Romeo and Juliet both kill each other for each other by a mere accident. This accident however could have been avoided. I believe that this story could have had a much happier ending if Friar Laurence would have thought of the consequences ...

Act 1 Scene 5 Act 3 Scene
1,307 wordsThe death of Hamlet was caused by a number of reasons, many of which were his own fault. Although this may be disputed it is a fact that this was a tragedy, but aside from the obvious reasons (the trap set by Claudius and Laertes) there were steps leading up his death which could have easily been avoided. Probably Hamlet's most tragic flaw is that he becomes too involved in his thoughts, it is his tendency to ponder upon the possible outcome of every situation and scenario that he faces in his l...

Since flying first became a reality, documented safety reports go back as far as eighty-eighty years.

This was not because a great deal was accomplished, but because of Jiang's extremely modest definition of what constituted a successful meeting. All Beijing apparently sought was a photo opportunity and a new slogan. Success was achieved on both accounts, with the Chi...
