It Was Written

unique and different in their own ways. They each have similarities in authors and each story was written in the same time period. The have more differences though such as; style of writing, detail, the conflicts, and the characters’ lives. Between the two short stories I personally enjoyed “Job History” more even though the style of writing was more monotone, and there wasn’t much action, I thought it was an interesting story. I personally can’t relate to the story since I myself have never had…

together to present an interesting scene. The most outstanding characteristic I found was how the two beginning lines of the poem “THE POOL PLAYERS,” and “SEVEN AT THE GOLDEN SHOVEL” are written to look like stage directions as they are the only two lines that are written entirely in capital letters and there is a large amount of space separating those lines from the rest of the poem as we would see in a written play. This immediately gives the reader the sense that the setting/scene of this…

America the space race. Yet, in our textbooks there is no mention of them or others alike. It is critical that the authors of the past don’t use censorship. The narrative that U.S. history used to tell us of the individuals who won the space race was one of a victor. Victor’s are the ones that writes history. Those who suffer or lose don’t talk about their failures and are included only to tell of a win. Time and time again…

This article is from the Harvard Magazine. This article is written by Dudley Herschbach an American chemist who won a nobel prize and who was a chemist at Harvard University. Herschbach shows great knowledge in this topic. The article is very informative and Herschbach gives many quotes from reliable sources.

“The Love of the Last Tycoon” written by F. Scott Fitzgerald should remain on the reading list for many reasons. The novel is written in two points of view, has a wide spectrum of characters, and has multiple different conflicts. The author wrote this story for an advanced reader, who is able to understand who is speaking,and keep track of the multiple events that go on simultaneously. The novel is very short, but in this case the saying “quality not quantity” comes into play. The book can also…

snakes. The plot in the two mediums, written version vs. movie, has the same subject, however, there are differences that will be found in this essay. This part will make people saying, “ooh...ahh”. The written version of this, written by Rudyard Kipling, will make you go wild. Rikki-tikki-tavi now had a problem. The problem was that he got washed away by a flood from his family and Nagaina and Nag wanted to kill Rikki-tikki. At midnight, Nag and Nagaina was planning to kill the family, so Nag…

Pope Marcellus Mass: Kyrie, by Palestrina or Missa Papae Marcelli is believed to be written in 1562, this composition is a Renaissance Style Polyphonic mass. It is very much so a Renaissance piece, it was made in 1562 towards the latter end of the Renaissance period, but still very much before the end which around 1600, the piece had four or more melodic fragments performed simultaneously, which is known as Polyphony, a staple of the Renaissance period. Throughout the piece there are no…

Emancipation, is a slim and fantastic historical saga that describes historical events through five generations of the Tinchant family during the time of the Atlantic World. Throughout this book, Scott and Hebrard describes and illustrates the power of written documents as well as it's take on social mobility and the changes through social classes. They focused this "micro-history set in motion" around the different locations in which the Tinchant family arrived to or departured from. For…

to give every American generation freedoms that they never had before. Two freedoms that I believe that are very important to me are, “The Right to Bear Arms“ and “Freedom of Religion, Speech, and Assembly” The Right to Bear Arms, that was written as the Second Amendment to the US Constitution, gives every American the right to have and carry guns. With war and conflicts in other countries, and with all the violence, markings, break-ins, robberies, and assaults, people need to carry a…
