Frontier

William Cronon’s essay entitled “The Trouble with Wilderness” is an intelligent and thoughtful work of environmental philosophy that addresses the relationship between nature and man while defining and contextualizing the idea of wilderness. Cronon argues that we must change the way that we think about wilderness.

the sound of discharging powder is enough to avoid conflict. Fearing you 're too late and your loving dog is dead and gone the meal to a hungry predator.

Women in The Big Sleep As I have mentioned before, this was true in the case of the rise of feminism. Before the turn of the century, “Women arrived, en masse, [to the Western frontier], and the ‘male-dominated homosocial world of gold rush California’ gave way to a ‘settled domestic Victorian discipline’” (Hoefer 49). That ‘Victorian discipline’ gave way in the 1920s to a deviant social norm, exemplified by Carmen and to a lesser extent Vivian. Right before Marlowe expresses how much he…

Therefore, I am calling on Trump’s administration and the United States Congress to increase NASA’s funding from its current…

licenses. The stamp act also charged people for dishes and many different things. The collected money from the stamp act was used to help pay for the costs of defending and protecting the American frontier. They were near the Appalachian mountains. 10,000 troops were to be stationed on the American frontier on this purpose. The cost of the stamp act was really small. What made the law so offensive to all the colonists was not so much its immediate cost but the standard it seemed to set. They…

The Explosion of an American Superpower At the end of the 19 century, America was becoming a formidable superpower, she had reached the limits of her national frontier, and had achieved the manifest destiny. As any up and coming superpower would do, she turned her interests to the international scale. The sinking of the USS Maine on February 15th 1898, which killed 260 U.S Navy servicemen. This attack on American servicemen gave America the excuse it needed to get involved in a foreign war, and…

the bookstore, I'm faced with a decision of whether to dive into the oceans of science fiction, or to explore the narrow caverns and the vast sights of futurism. I gaze at the stars, wondering how long until we begin travelling through space, a new frontier for humanity. I also look at the research bringing us closer to that point, and the interdisciplinary thinkers leading those…
