Eternity

whites, and only gained freedom for a short period. The privileged whites will say reconstruction of the south was successful because slaves gained freedom. The United States passed new laws into the Constitution, allowing blacks to remain free for eternity. The 13th amendment states that “neither slavery nor involuntary servitude … shall exist within the United States” (Document B), protecting blacks from slavery forever. The 14th amendment makes African Americans legal citizens, and the 15th,…

Timed Write Rewrite Faustus’ frailty is prominently displayed throughout the passage, but is intermingled with his remorseful state of mind. Christopher Marlowe uses carefully disguised diction, figurative language, and imagery to uphold Faustus’ dismay at his hellish fate. This passage is abundant with examples supporting the use of aforementioned dramatic conventions in Faustus’ monologue, which allude to his overall state of mind. Diction, such as the continued use of “Faustus” in said…

love with Homer after she dies, using the title “A Rose for Emily,” is like saying that this story is about how Emily finally finds love. Because even though this story is not a conventional love story, it is about a woman who finally gets to spend eternity with the love of her…

As Russell reconstructs the idea of co-presence in the light of physics, mathematics, and cosmology, he appeals to the examples of non-Hausdorff manifolds and Cantor’s threefold concept of the finite, the transfinite, and the infinite in mathematics and to the non-locality of quantum mechanics. Thereby, he renders co-presence as an infinite fractal-like character. To be more specific, gleaning from Pannenberg the idea of the dialectical mutual indwelling of the finite and the infinite,…

how far the living is from the dead. Another poem that focues on immortality “’Those not live yet/ Who doubt to live again --/ ’Again’ is of a twice /But this -- is one --‘” (Those Not Lived yet). Dickinson creates a beautiful pure place to be for eternity. Costume less, not having to hide the truth from everyone, not having to put a façade on, to be oneself. Dickinson does however; appear to be uncertain in other poems in her work as to whether or not immortality is possible. . “’With Blue -…

journey through the different circles of hell with his guide Virgil. Hell is divided into nine main circles, each one pertaining to a specific sin. With each sin, there is a unique punishment that each of the souls in that circle must endure for eternity. The more deplorable the sin is, the worse the punishment is. Most of these punishments are extremely unsettling at the least and horrific at the worst. However,…

At the beginning of the year each Jubilee Ringer was given two songs to learn and memorize. Their success would be determined by how well they occupied their time to achieve the goal. The reward for mastering the task would be a scholarship award. After months of disciplined practice, the moment finally came when the Jubilee Ringers stood before an audience and performed their piano selections. After the scholarship concert, several students asked “did I do well?” One day Jesus was…

this man, and now his soul is damned to eternity in Hell. If his mentor, whom he so greatly looked up to, could be a sinner, so too could Dante. The pilgrim asks Brunetto about the other sinners who he runs with. Brunetto responds, “In brief, let me tell you, all here were clerics and respected men of letters of great fame, all befouled in the world by one same sin.” (p. 443, Canto XVI, ln. 106-108). Dante realizes that one sin alone can damn him to eternity in the depths of Hell, running…

For instance she states,“And I had put away- My labor and Leisure too- For his Civility,” “He kindly stopped for me,” “For his civility,” “We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain. We passed the Setting Sun,” “Were towards eternity.” She is describing death is not something to be scared of, rather she is saying death is, in each of these stanzas, evident tone of comfort, civility, safety, and peacefulness are present. She is accepting of death; however, Dickinson shows negative…

least the worst in Dante’s eyes. Some people imagine the pits of hell to be flaming, burning the sinners to death; this was not the case. The sinners of betrayal are instead frozen solid in a giant ice block, their bodies twisted and turned for eternity. This is an image that most people do not know of, they only take what is from the previous Circles where there are burning flames. The people on earth can be either so right, or so wrong about Hell, both the physical and mental aspects. Is…
