outside: “Look down into the courtyard” (CP 26). This line indicates Bishop’s invitation to her audience to observe with her. The very title, “Paris 7a.m.,” suggests the main concepts of place and time which Bishop explores in the poem. Jonathan Ellis observes that this particular Bishop poem “show[s] a young poet experimenting with various poetic traditions, desperately seeking a voice to approach autobiography safely” (Ellis 30). Bishop locates her poem within the circles (rotaries) and squares (plazas) of Paris. The repetition of the words circles and squares gives this sense of the Paris roadways and how the roads tend to converge at the center or an “Etoile.” Bishop bears in mind the geography so carefully that she references the Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile a point at which twelve major road of Paris meet at the famous monument. The twelve roads call to mind the plentitude of “clocks” throughout the poem and how their geography also includes this circle convergence. Jonathon Ellis understands the specific place and time of the title as “[Bishop] announc[ing] the time and location in ‘Paris, 7a.m.’…[as] a way of shoring up the imagination, of grounding it in literal facts and history. And yet the cry still finds a way through.” (Ellis 52). The cry within “Paris, 7a.m.” takes place underneath the surface in Bishop’s struggle to make sense of the ever shifting senses of space and time. The endless supply of clocks in the poem suggests a commentary about time. The clocks…
Analysis of Sharplin's Case-study of The Lincoln Electric Company The Lincoln Electric Company was created in 1895 by John C. Lincoln. By 1914 John's brother, James F. Lincoln, took over company operations. The legacy and framework created by these brothers runs deep and is strongly reflected in company culture even nearly a century later. Many of the incentives, policies, ideas, and processes implemented during the brothers' oversight are still in practice and strongly embraced. Sharplin's…
case it contained arguments that are significant in the evaluation of coefficients of cross elasticity. Also, it included the arguments of some authors between Triffin, Chamberlin, Bishop and others on the usage of cross elasticity in the grouping of forms in market. Similarly, it discussed the concept of cross elasticity and the relations of Hicksian distinction to the coefficients. Lastly, the importance of antitrust cases was defined to the usage of cross elasticity. Analysis / Evaluation…
This plasma highly dangerous as it is very high in temperature. · Danger of explosion: the arc welding machine highly flammable gas for the welding process. An explosion of this gas tank could be very devastating. · Huge amount of water: the in house calibration lab uses a very large amount of water in a single storage tank, with very powerful pumps driving the same water from the short length pipes present in the laboratory. Risk Management 1 Objective The objective of this…
Elasticity is used in economics to measure the degree of responsiveness in demand in relation to an alteration in price or income. Economists use the term price elasticity of demand to express how much a change in price influences demand. Comparable, cross price elasticity determines the change in demand of one product with the increase or decrease in price on a different product. Similarly, income elasticity of demand intends to measure the change in demand after a change in consumers’ income.…

Have you ever wondered how things like cars, buildings, and bridges are built? Welding is a widely used way to join structural and ornamental iron and steel. Many of the things we use in our daily lives are welded, like buildings, bridges and vehicles. Welding is the process of joining two metals with electricity and heat to make one piece of metal. The two main types of welding are arc welding and brazing. Arc welding is where electricity is used to melt a filler rod into the metal which…
Joan of Arc as a Woman Joan of Arc is a historical woman in which we as students, historians, and people in general have tried to understand. Some people know her as the woman who heard voices, or was burned at the stake, or maybe as the young girl who lead the French soldiers to a win over the English. Although she may be known for all of the above, the image of Joan that I would like to analyze is she as a woman. Different stories of Joan have different depictions of her in her womanhood.…
