The Tale of Genji is another Japanese literary work that confuses nature with poems about nature. The Tale of Genji, Kuitert hypothesizes, is based off of poems from the Konkinshu, rather than actual depictions of nature. This means that Heian gardens which were meant to emulate nature actually emulate the poetic beauty of the meisho rather than nature (Kuitert 47). The Sakuteiki is an obvious attempt to create idealized depictions of natural scenes in one’s home, but this hypothesis begs the…

Although the Epic of Gilgamesh represents many other characteristics of this time period such as patriarchy and the anxieties of the agro-urban revolution, this story definitively…

At the heart of the misunderstanding that permeates the entire story is Ryan as Dr. Cooper. With his signature look and style, he fits the part quite well even though the viewers only see him momentarily. While I have seen him in nothing else, I doubt I'll forget him in this role. As unforgettable, unattached singles, it is a delight to see Jordana as Angel and Nicole as Brooke. Neither girl is new to acting, and again, their scene is noteworthy and fraught with entertaining comedic timing. I…

It will be very difficult for someone to set out a journey without knowing their goals and destinations. Success…
