Accompaniment

Payback, revenge, karma; call it what you will, but it all has to do with the idea of retribution. Revenge, the conventional name, is typically an idea that accosts itself when an individual offends another, leading to ill feelings. In the short story, “The Cask of Amontillado,” and the poem, “A Poison Tree,” by Edgar Allan Poe and William Blake, both protagonists host feelings of revenge, but only see one side of it; however, the reader can see the explicit side effects of it. The major…

Track 2 (“Baby Be Mine”): This song starts with percussion and synthesizer sound effects. The lyrics begin at 0:20. I noticed that the percussion highlighted the second and fourth beats of the measure. The song was a legato sounding pop song that sounded like some of the songs on the top 40 radio stations. Background singers entered at about 0:58; they shocked me because I did not expect something like that in this song. About that time there was an interesting hollow sound that I enjoyed. I was…

Ray Bradbury definitely wrote a very good story about a possible dystopian future, but he also inclines that our current society could go down that path if we let it happen. Firemen burn books, and that's what we see with our main character, Guy Montag. He works as a fireman, a literal fireman, and burns books. But what is Ray Bradbury really trying to tell us with this book? He is trying to warn us about our society. In the society in the book, the lack of realistic information, or information…

partner. Although the sound of the music is not typical for popular music today, it does have the typical lovesick song, where two people love each other, but their pride is keeping them apart. The song’s sad story matches its melancholy musical accompaniment. Listeners hear of the emotions when the woman sings, “It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now” (lines 6,13, and 17). It's very repetitive because it shows how they could've been together if they didn't have abundant ego.…

(3) Prejudice Reduction Prejudice reduction is a way of developing positive attitudes toward a variety of racial, ethnic and cultural groups by incorporating lessons and activities into lessons. Research shows that students come to school with negative attitudes and misconceptions about different groups, socially, racially and ethnically (Aboud, 2009. Stephan & Vogt, 2004). Lessons that include content about different racial and ethnic groups by incorporating positive images help students…

Autonomous Vehicles and their Policy Implications 1989: the year the Cold War ended, gas cost $0.97, the Tokyo Stock Market crashed, Microsoft Office was first released, and Toyota released it’s first luxury brand, Lexus1. The earth was graced by Taylor Swift, would-be Harry Potter Daniel Radcliffe, and, how could we forget, the Little Mermaid2. And in November of 1989, a sci-fi film was released which would be the third highest grossing movie of the year and inspire and entertain for…

Negative emotions are feelings that are continued throughout the emotional development of a character. In The Catcher in the Rye, Holden continuously describes that he is feeling depressed, no matter what situation he is in. Throughout Holden’s adventure in New York, it is made clear that he has suppressed his emotions regarding the death of his brother, Allie, and the times where these unresolved feelings surface is when he is alone. A specific moment in Holden’s story where he describes…

Two modern dance masters of the twentieth century, Merce Cunningham (1919 - 2009) and Alvin Ailey (1931 - 1989) both deceased and both from entirely different backgrounds, created genius compositions of movement and interpretation as exhibited on stage through their chosen art, modern dance. Suite for Five by Merce Cunningham (1956) and Revelations by Alvin Ailey (1960) were considered to be some of their greatest compositions and although the pieces were created and performed within four years…

How does Mahfouz use imagery as a means of communicating varying attitudes towards change? Mahfouz’s novel Midaq Alley contains very detailed, yet often inconsistent descriptive imagery. Representations of Midaq Alley and surrounding Cairo frequently highlight the Alley’s claustrophobic nature, yet also its past glory. This motif of forgotten grandeur is prominent in the novel, and plays a key role in underlining the varied and often clashing views on change. Mahfouz wrote Midaq Alley in and…
