Jewel

David’s Treasures By Sofía Ko For my final segment assignment, I made a 3D Model Memorial. There are many items and meanings that are inside the jar I made. There are rocks, photographs, a ring, a necklace, bits of bread, (fake) jewels, several doll shoes, one die, a quote taped around the perimeter, and a Star of David drawn on the lid. Each of these materials were put in this jar for a reason. The rocks represent that the Jews put them on Schindler’s grave. The photographs in the jar are in…

Madame Loisel by showing her to be a selfish, needy person. He does this by using the character’s actions towards her husband. For example, “I’m utterly miserable at not having any jewels, not a single stone, to wear. I shall look absolutely no one.” These words portray the character as being miserable for not having jewels for the formal ball. A friend by the name of Madame Forestier allows Losiel to borrow the necklace for the ball. Mrs. Loisel seemed very needy and ungrateful at this moment…

“She suffered constantly, feeling that all the attributes of a gracious life, every luxury, should rightly have been hers” (Page 373). Guy de Maupassant wrote that it caused her pain. “She had no proper wardrobe, no jewels, nothing. And those were the things that she loved-she felt she was made for them” (Page 374). Not only did she say she was not rich, she also was greedy when it came to money. “Listen, Mathilde, how much would an evening dress cost---a suitable one…

day of the ball nears her and she seems “sad, uneasy, and anxious” (222). She worries that although she seems wealthy, people might find out that she can barely afford the dress she wears currently. With the ball still to come, Mathilde hunts for jewels and once she tries on a diamond necklace she “[remains] lost in ecstasy at sight of herself” (225). She only dreams…

The transience and beauty of nature are reflected in the line “Summer’s honey breath,” illustrating that nature is what keeps “Summer” alive. However, the “wrackful siege of battering days” is what kills this beauty. Time moving forward and the progression of “battering days,” demolishes “summer’s honey breath.” There is a particular imagery used throughout the quatrain, and it is the imagery of battle and war with the author’s use of the phrases “battering days,” “wrackful siege,” “gates of…

himself. As a result of loneliness in childhood, Pluto is currently as lonely or even more so than in the past. At night he ventures out into the world, yet good deeds is not what he intends to do. He creeps into stores and robs them of their gems and jewels, leaving them bare to anything valuable. He does not steal for the goods; however, he…

the ancient Egyptians times are one of the coolest. So my cake would be based off the clothing they wore how they lives there lives and the jewelry they had. Egyptian clothing was filled with a variety of colors. Adorned with precious gems and jewels, their fashions were made for not only beauty but also comfort so I would make a cake that was the shape of a pyramid it would have four sides each side of the cake would have a three dimensional shape of an ancient Egyptian theme.…

crown” (3.1.63). Similarly, in “The Necklace,” Mathilde’s fall is triggered by her own greed for wealth. Just as Macbeth is unsatisfied with his position of power, Mathilde is unsatisfied with her modest lifestyle: “She [Mathilde] had no dresses, no jewels, nothing. And she loved nothing but that; she felt made for that” (De Maupassant 1). Clearly, Mathilde feels as if she is entitled to the privileges of the rich, despite already living comfortably as a housewife. Furthermore, in the same way…

All items have a lifespan and they all must come to an end. The author of Beowulf makes it evident that the concept of old and new are dominant in the epic. This is important because it demonstrates the life cycle, every old object gets replaced with a newer version of that object. Due to the cycle of old and new, this will affect the society and they will be exposed to new ideas and creations. The perception of the old and the new are a crucial part of Beowulf because it shows the process of…
