Bram Stoker Gothic Horror

In 1897, Bram Stoker's "Dracula" was published in
Great Britain. It was one of many Gothic horror
novels of the day and, although popular, wasn't
considered to be meaningful or timeless in any
way. Yet, over a century later, the book has never
gone out of print. Its title character, Count
Dracula, is the quintessential vampire of Western
literature and has inspired more movies than any
novel. "Dracula" is sufficiently multi-faceted
that writers and directors of film have been able

Counterpoint Within Shakespeare Twelfth Night
969 words
Shakespeare uses counterpoint throughout Twelfth
Night to create an interesting story that captures
the reader's attention. Counterpoint is a
technique that incorporates multiple scenes
happening simultaneously. These several scenes
come together at the end of the work to produce a
harmonious finish to an action-packed and
appealing plot. In Twelfth Night these concurrent
proceedings generate many misconceptions which
provide the comical, somewhat ironic part of the
play. The "love triangle" eff...

The origin of the arms with the argent between 6

The Cat, from the Egyptian Polemic Period,
captures the viewer s eye through its stately and

underside of the cat s belly becomes the immediate
focus of attention, resulting from the contrast
between the darkness of the cat and the brightness
of the background that shows through it. In
addition, the natural shape of the negative space
resembles a triangle, which mimics the pyramids
and the Egyptian s mortal quest for the afterlife.
