desire in Sir Thomas Wyatt 's “Whoso List to Hunt”. However, from Petrarch 's perspective, love is transcendent and idealizes the beloved. The poet places his love on a pedestal. Desire, on the other hand, focuses on longing and frustration. The poet 's love is unwanted and injustice (Riddell). In this essay I will examine Petrarchan conventions such as the conceit, as well as illicit, thwarted, and unrequited love, and how they portray passionate pursuits. I will also explore Wyatt 's use of…
A sonnet is a poem usually consisting of fourteen lines linked by a regular rhythm and one of two mayor rhyme schemes - that of either an Italian or Shakespearean sonnet (Prescott, 2010). Such forms will be analyzed in the works of two of the greatest poets of all time – John Donne and William Shakespeare. They are worthy canonical figures that are still acknowledged and studied today, were influenced by cultural and historical features of the era in which they wrote and included aesthetics…
I came across a report Racial Bias in Health Care and Health penned by Dr. David R. Williams and Dr. Ronald Wyatt which discusses racial and ethnic disparities from a health care perspective and why steps should be taken to address it. He shares his experience when confronted with implicit and explicit bias as a patient at a local hospital. Implicit bias is behavior that results from subtle implicit attitudes and implicit stereotypes that often happen unconsciously and without any overt intent.…
Tudor governance but it was not aimed at deposing Mary and thus posed Mary’s hold on the throne less of a threat. Richards suggests that Wyatt 's rebellion posed a serious threat to Mary. She argues that by virtue of the numbers involved, Wyatt was set to march on and challenge London, the hub of Tudor power. However, Guy has a different view. He points out that Wyatt was isolated with the other uprisings failing to materialise and also was stopped by the Londoners. Fletcher and MacCulloch put…
Legendary Beard Fact: Heroic western figure Wyatt Earp was said to have killed thirty men during his lifetime. Perhaps his opponents were as intimidated by his magnificent mustache and beard combo as his skills with a gun. Wyatt Earp started life on March 19, 1848 in Warren County, Illinois, and began his trek westward before the age of two, when his father joined a group of settlers heading for California. The family only made it about 150 miles before leaving the expedition due to the…

see Buffalo Bill in a different western town and the sheriff of a town close by. He would be coming and going from town getting drinks and looking for outlaws. I would have Billy and Chip meet him because Buffalo Bill was a way better sheriff than Wyatt Earp. They would also have seen William L. Carlisle. was an outlaw that would have been on the wanted board and a reward of $10,000, and so many people would be after him to get the reward and turn him in or even kill him for the reward because…

really happened. By referencing multiple sources, a true telling of the American West should form, and beginning with a popular depiction of the period would help show just how flawed or accurate the public's perception is about it. Tombstone follows Wyatt Earp and his brothers, most of them being former lawmen, and their attempt to live amongst a powerful gang of outlaws. Outlaws, law men, adventurers, pioneers, diversity, honor, and violence…
It comes to no surprise that the Western isn’t the most progressive genre when it comes to the topic of sex. Staking itself on historical accuracy, films of the genre generally portray sex as an act only to be performed by a married couple. The genre also portrays sex in another, more sinister light. Via the moral precepts of the mid 1900’s Hollywood, any instance of sex outside of this accepted institution had to be penalized, mainly in the form of death for the guilty party. Why was this…
