In these two panels from Marjane Satrapi’s book Persepolis, Satrapi uses the contrast between the chaos and horror of the explosions in one, and the fun and happiness of the party in the other to highlight just how abruptly tragedy can strike. In the frame of the explosions, Satrapi uses sharp angles and dark shading to show the effects of the mines that people have stepped on, and the people flying through the air with keys around their neck are those who are unfortunate enough to suffer the…
“I have so much chaos in my life, and it’s become normal. You become used to it. You have to just relax, calm down, take a deep breath and try to see how you can make things work rather than complain about how they're wrong,” Says Tom Welling an American actor, producer, director, and model. As most people clearly know, life is hard rough road that likes to turn everyday life on its head. Chaos might occur when parents’ divorce, when a death of a love one comes out of nowhere, or when something…

so in depth and thoughtful that the houses and buildings almost become characters in their own rights. This attention to detail comes from McEwan’s use of setting in reinforcing the central themes of Atonement, such as love, pretence and order and chaos. Although he used many techniques, descriptive language, personification and intertextuality, to convey his ideas, it is the use of setting that reinforces those far beyond what the other techniques achieved. A significant portion of Atonement…

One may think that the universe would be better off without chaos. One may think that the universe would be better with order as its ruling force, but one would be wrong. Ancient civilizations have ruled that the universe needs an…
