Circle

Trotsky deserves to go to one of the levels of hell. And based upon Aligheri’s criteria Trotsky belongs in circle nine, the bottom level of hell where traitors go and where Satan resides despite his divorce from Aleksandra Sokolovskaya for his lover Natalia Ivanova Sedova which would place him in circle two, the circle for the carnal. However Trotsky specifically belongs in the Antenora region of circle nine where the traitors of political parties and, or their countries go to in death. Leon…

think and question their stance on the idea that God is all powerful; he refutes the doctrine of Gods omnipotence. His first puzzle was if God had the ability to draw a square circle. He stated that his inability to draw a circle only indicates the lacks of geometrical skill; however the inability to to draw a square circle is not due to the lack of geometrical skill, but of being asked to do the impossible. The next puzzle was presented as a question; can God create a stone that too heavy for…

In the short story The Lottery by Shirley Jackson, it started by everyone drawing a paper from a little black box. If you get the one with the black circle on it your family is eligible to get beaten to death by rocks. After you find out you have the circle everyone from your family draws and whoever gets the black dot know looses. The theme I give this story is power of tradition. In the movie The Lottery by Shirley Jackson, was similar to the short story. It all started out by the little…

There is no denying that Dante was incredibly talented. Somewhat amusingly however, is the fact that Dante was fully aware of his own talents and was pleased to exhibit the knowledge of his skills within the poem itself. For example, in Limbo, the Circle of the Virtuous Pagans, Dante meets his heroes, some of the acknowledged greatest poets of the Western World. Homer, Horace, Ovid, and Lucan, together with Virgil, had formed a poetries greatest hits club, and this was their reaction when they…

film is that it feels like one of those old Bond films from the Roger Moore days (the ones the PC Police poo poo on about these days) and focused on being more fun. While Kingsman: The Golden Circle is indeed fun, it is also an example of too much of a good thing is still too much. Kingsman: The Golden Circle hits the floor running as only seconds into the film Eggsy…

pursuing such activities. In Dante’s Inferno, Dante may not have enjoyed the adventure he took through the nine circles of hell, but it was still an activity he never experienced before. After reading Inferno, I decided to compare and contrast the text with Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol.…

One of the fundamental purposes of the idea of sin is to establish the threat of an eternity spent in Hell. The goal of this scare tactic is to encourage people to live a morally sound life in order to earn a worthy afterlife. But the idea that a happy afterlife must be earned by living a good life while alive is not a new concept. This idea has existed in several religions before Christianity and it’s (meticulous/precise) and specific list of sins to avoid. People do not need the specific…

Image 1: This image is asymmetric because elements are offset from each other and making the painting unbalanced. The composition is affected by the offset of people in the painting and the visual effect can also affect the composition. The boat is not centered and there are more people on one side of the painting than the other which also makes it asymmetric. There are more cool colors used in this painting then there is warm. I see a couple things that are red and a few that are a light yellow…

gave me a quick checkup, a list of foods I should eat, and pills for my head. I went to my Social Justice class for the last ten minutes. When I entered the class, everyone was sitting in a circle. Even though the circle was closed, I didn’t feel excluded. A few kids quickly moved over and opened the circle for me. I took a seat, feeling welcomed. We started to make a list of the behaviors we would like to see in the class. Everyone threw in their…

She walked around the stone circle to him and said, “First, let’s do some research and examine the runes. Maybe we can figure out what this is.” She looked up at Tyler, who was very close to the circle examining the surface. He turned to Alicia and said, “As always, sis, you have the most logical plan. The problem is that I want to test it now!” Tyler was smiling…
