Coffer

another Venetian law, which stated “if it be proved against an alien that by direct or indirect attempts he seek the life of any citizen, the party 'gainst the which he doth contrive shall seize one half of his goods; the other half comes to the privy coffer of the state, and the offender 's life lies in the mercy of the Duke only, 'gainst all other voice.” (ll. 344 – 351, Act 4, Scene 1). By invoking this law, she then takes away justice from Shylock, and causes him to lose not only his…

Kristallnacht, the night of terror, The Night of Broken Glass. Homes, businesses, lives and entire livelihoods were lost. The Nazi soldiers marched through the streets, hundreds of them. Some of them didn’t show any emotion, they looked menacing. The soldiers had weapons of total devastation at their fingertips. There was a Resistance that had charged from nowhere. From that point on the Nazi’s weren’t having it. They fought back they actually killed most of the people that had attacked them.…

The solar system is a vast and wondrous place. There are many things to explore and things that still need to be discovered. So much money is going to space exploration and organizations such as NASA, and less is going to organizations that need it like American Legion, and Make A Wish Foundation. Going into space allows scientists to discover new things and possibly new worlds, but the earth needs to be taken care of first, before going out and discovering a place where oxygen can even be…

in the play made by Julius Caesar, although this play is fiction based on historical events, we can see real facts about that marvelous Caesar that Romans fell in love with. "He hath brought many captives home to Rome/Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill/Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?/When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept/Ambition should be made of sterner stuff/Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;/And Brutus is an honourable man./You all did/see that on the Lupercal/I thrice…

The British Empire was once the largest empire the world had ever seen. It was thanks in part to the adoption of a strong, organized form of government. The Westminster system is one of the most prominent systems of government globally thanks to the now defunct empire’s far-reaching influences. The system of a bicameral parliament, which is what the Westminster system is, represents every citizen’s voice, but that is not necessarily the case. Many of the countries that impose this system of…

The second assignment will be to write a persuasive op-ed. The assignment should take an issue relevant to the immigration debate today and argue a perspective. The writing is to fall in the 1-2 page typed range. This country is built by the immigrants and I do strongly urge the Government for the immigration reform rather than perching against the particular race. There should be strict policies which should be implemented by the government in order to make American people’s lives better. The…

A mask of lies hides the truth while the naked face is too good to be true. Mark Antony, Caesar's most loyal companion, delivers his speech with a hidden devilish grin, giving the citizens what they want, Meanwhile, Brutus stands proud and tall confidently praising his murder of Caesar, assuming what the people needed. Between the delegates, Mark Antony’s speech thrived of emotion, aggression, and sympathy which established chaos and a riot in the audience. In Antony's discourse, his pledge…

how it would have turned out. Also Brutus speaks of Caesar ambition being such a problem but yet Antony in his speech gives events when Caesar wasn’t ambitious. He states, “ He hath brought many captives home to Rome Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill. Did this in Caesar seem ambitious? WHen that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept.Ambition should be made of sterner stuff. Yet Brutus says he was ambitious, And brutus is an honorable man. You all did see that on the Lupercal I thrice…

In Julius Caesar, the characters Marc Antony and Brutus give speeches to a crowd, where they shared their feelings towards Caesar’s death. Throughout their speeches, the use of pathos, ethos and logos persuaded the crowd to agree with one’s speech over the other. Marc Antony is able to win the crowd over with his friendly tone and he spoke to where the crowd understood him unlike Brutus, who went straight into duty mode during his speech. In William Shakespeare’s play The Tragedy of Julius…

Linear Perspective was first introduced to the art world in the Italian Renaissance. Khan Academy perfectly defined linear perspective as “what renaissance artists had clearly achieved through the careful observation of nature, including studies of anatomical dissections, was the means to recreate the 3-dimensional physical reality of the human form on two-dimensional surfaces”. Linear perspective first started with the human body and then shortly after was used to represent space in paintings…
