few. This idea could follow any military campaign, such as the conflicts faced in Beirut during the time the story was written. One of the themes for On Basilisk Station was performing a duty no matter what the consequence was. Honor’s defense of Medusa did not make her popular, regardless she completed her job. The same can be said about the intervention in Somalia during that time. Old Man’s War had a theme of what makes one human. John Perry was given a new body, one that was genetically…

After the previous success of our interview with Persephone, we were requested to interview Poseidon. We sent our reporter in to get the scoop. I was by the Jersey Shore carefully following directions to where Poseidon was to meet me. He said that it was a “sacred sacrificial ground for prisoners of war.” It seemed to be a normal section of restaurants by the shore but I had hope. When I finally made my last turn and I saw the sacred ground. A fish stick stand. On the bench by the fish stich…

A mid-life crisis happens in an adult’s life between the ages of 40-60, and the average adult begins to realize they are getting older. This can be recognized easily when a man around the age of 50 begins to sing the AC/DC song “Highway to Hell” and he begins to realize that his favorite song came out 35 years ago. This is also the time an adult begins to second-guess their decisions they have made in the past and also begin to wonder if they are still considered a productive member of society.…

Sor Juana uses binary language in her poem “In a Lighter Vein” to explore the idealization of women by men. Sor Juana creates these binaries in order to critique this idealization and presents them in a dichotomous nature to clearly illustrate the indecisive and misguided needs of men.

apply them to female writers, stating women must “kill the aesthetic ideal, [the angel,] through which they themselves have been "killed" into art. And similarly, all women writers must kill the angel's necessary opposite and double.. [that] whose Medusa-face also kills female creativity.” This act of “killing” in art refers to the male writer’s representation of any aspect of femininity, which created the binary of pure innocence and obedience or complete lunacy. Gilbert and Gubar want female…

Let me simply state the central, polemical move in this book. I suggest a new route to the paintings of Delacroix, one that does not start with his Salon début, the Dante and Virgil in Hell (1822), but rather begins with an examination of the 1824 Salon. This context included works by artist who are now obscure – Xavier Sigalon, Leon Cogniet – and it was filled with critical voices of enduring and yet neglected relevance for French painting, such as the novelist Stendhal (Henri Beyle) and…

I magine being swallowed by your own father, and controlling a kingdom where the dead go. That happen to Hades, the god of the underworld.

Art serves the purpose of expressing ones feelings and illustrating a point of view or opinion. Typically, inspiration for subject matter stems from societal, religious or political movements that are currently effecting the functionality of society in a significant way. As a result, artists are provoked to properly capture the emotional state which is fundamental when convincingly conveying the experience of the environment and communicating an idea; “the intimate nature of emotion is…
