In Spring

come and go. Starting with spring, continuing with summer, and ending with fall, each specific time of year has its own impact on the play. Throughout the many scenes and dialogue, it is seen where each season not only affects the story line, but also the characters too. Each season relates in its own individual manner. In the very beginning of Act I, Arthur Miller provides us with the information of when and where this story all begins. Salem, Massachusetts in the spring of 1962 is the…

winter into spring called “Spring and All”. This poem is written by William Carlos Williams. The second poem is one speaking of the transition from autumn to winter, written by Archibald Lampman titled “Winter-Solitude”. First lets compare the form of both poems, starting with “Spring and All”. This poem consists of 27 lines organized into seven stanzas. The first stanza is a sestet, the second and fourth are couplets, the third is a quintet and the last three stanzas are quatrains. “Spring and…

Despite the grotesque fact of the killing of multiple women in the short story “Strawberry Spring,” the events conclude into a “peculiar sort of fun” (King, “Why We Crave” 2). Throughout the story “Strawberry Spring”, we encounter surprises like the horrific visions of dead women and a plot twist at the end give us a thrilling and entertaining feeling. For instance, when we find “the dead girl” (King,“Strawberry Spring”, 1) we encounter a fearful and suspenseful feeling wanting to know who the…

explain the beauty of life and how life does not last forever. Poems can be taken literally and figuratively. Frost uses imagery to show the literal side of the poem. Written in the poem, is the line “Nothing gold can stay” meaning it can not always be spring, also meaning that you can’t always be young and live an energizing life. “But only so an hour,” everyone has a day in their life that is going to be their last. In the first three lines of the poem, Frost is telling how life is a…

Darkness, gloom, and doom each contribute to the apparent mood of the early parts of William Williams’ poem “By the road to the contagious hospital” in his book “Spring and All.” Oppositional to the expectations of the average person towards the name of the poetry book, this poem may originally disconcert the further reading intentions of the previously noted individual, as the poem begins with considerations of a conspicuously harsh landscape, which would be an injustice to the culmination of…

calculate the acceleration, spring constant, and damping factor. The experiment was split into two different labs. Part one, the drop test, to take the block to a fixed height and drop it. This would then allow us to calculate the friction force, along with the acceleration of the metal block. Part two, the bounce test, is attaching the metal block to the spring, pushing the block down and releasing it. We would use these data to calculate the damping factor and the spring constant. To…

Gatsby, Jay Gatsby wants to control and turn back the clock. He staunchly believes in the fact that the past can be repeated and he actively looks to repeat the past. He tries to gain back five years of time that is lost forever. Throughout the spring, summer and autumn of 1922, it seems as if Gatsby might actually succeed in repeating the past; however, it is not possible. In The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald uses seasons and the weather associated with them to demonstrate that…

struggles but throughout this module, my eyes were opened to the unsettling way America came to be. When the settlers came to America, they were faced with a level of uncertainty but felt that it was their duty to bring civilization to the Western world (Spring, 2013). They felt that the best way to bring civilization was to deculturalize the Native Americans, and then teach them to have the same beliefs as the settlers. “Deculturalization is the educational process of destroying a people’s…
