asked me what should have been a fairly simple question, “What are you going to name him?” As a young girl who was receiving her very first puppy, I took this question very seriously. My puppy couldn’t have just any name. He wasn’t a Spot, or a Blue, or a Cowboy, even though any of those names would have worked perfectly fine. No, my puppy had to have the perfect name. I spent all night trying to think of the right name, but to…

In the vignette “My Name” by Sandra Cisneros, one can clearly see that the main character, Esperanza, is an intelligent, independent, determined young woman. To begin, Esperanza spends much of the vignette “My Name” reflecting on the life of her grandmother, whose name she inherited, a seemingly odd choice of topic. However, in discussing her grandmother, Esperanza better defines her own personality. One aspect of Esperanza’s personality, her intelligence, can be seen in the passage in which…

one like in ‘the kitchen now is an abandoned farmhouse…..etc.’, the play takes place in the kitchen which is the women’s den which is ironic because at that the community was a male biased one. The characters were all being called by their husbands name as it indicates to giving women no identity as they must abide by the men’s…

respect to the stolen generation.

Being given the opportunity to participate in the Birthright AFRICA program would afforded me the chance further to develop my African identity and continue to grow as an individual. Culture is the foundation behind every individual; it is what plants us firm in our ideals and beliefs. It is what navigates us through difficult periods and decisions. Culture is the glue that bonds us together as one voice, one experience, and one people. Despite at times taking my culture for granted, my…

What is thought in a play?

disassociated from its origins. For example, few who have read the work know that it was conceived during a mere contest, one of the many staged between Shelley and a fellow poet (“Overview”). Even fewer can recall the poet’s name, Horace Smith, and his competing piece of the same name. Like the great Pharaoh himself, Smith’s achievements have been scattered to the winds and forgotten. Such a fate is clairvoyantly reflected in “Ozymandias”, wherein Shelley combines an atypical rhyme scheme and…

Family Unity in Greek and Egyptian Culture ANT 101 In Greek culture, as well as Egyptian culture, children are very important to the family. They are raised in supportive environments and therefore, upon marriage, raise loved and cared-for children of their own. I will attempt to compare the two cultures in this paper.
