Parades

the beginning of November and the performance is played by street dancers groups called Las comparsas de los muertos, some of them in masks and costumed characters representing different personages related with the Death, the great equalizer. These parades are all played by men, playing roles of both men and woman characters as the Old man, the Widow, The Dead Husband,…

Robbing the temple of Mother Larina, it was an audacious idea; the grounds were so well guarded that even the best thieves in the city wouldn't dare to try. And that is how Aaron knew he could pull it off. Of course he wouldn't just try to jump the wall in the night, and slip in a window, that's the kind of thing that would get him caught. No, Aaron had a plan, and it was a plan that would turn what many considered one of his weaknesses into an asset; something he's often been teased about over…

Homosexuality was a crime for most of the United States history. As early as the 20th-century people were working discreetly until the Stonewall riots of 1969 for the acceptance of people who are gay in society. The Stonewall Riots were a major turning point for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) community. It was beginning of societal awareness of the persecution and needed rights of the LGBT community. This seminal conflict eventually led to increased social acceptance and legal…

The fact that the sisters enforce a strict degree of routine makes it so that they are able to encourage normalization amongst the girls. The sisters in the film act as the “technicians of behaviour; engineers of conduct, orthopaedists of individuality” (Foucault, 1977, p. 294). What this means is that they have the influence over what actions are normalized amongst the girls. We see this with the amount of surveillance that takes place on the part of the sisters. By being around the girls at…

The Fighting Irish Ireland is a country built on war. Throughout its history, it has been conquered, divided, won and lost wars. Even today, the island remains separated into two parts, one belonging to the Republic of Ireland and the other a member of the United Kingdom. The most substantial factor early on was the religion and today the clash between the north and the south is on economic issues. The north, which is part of UK, fairs better economically than the south, which is the…

My high school experience has allowed me to be a part of the band, choir, theatre, and Spanish programs. These experiences have all shown me unique aspects of my life and the lives of those around me. Because I was homeschooled until ninth grade, I never got a real chance to be a part of the community like I did when I became a freshman. Throughout my high school career, I have learned many things like music, Spanish, and how to treat other people. At Vicksburg High School, all three of these…

I have chosen the song, Three Cheers for Five Years, by Mayday Parade, for Hamlet's “To be or Not to be” soliloquy. This song fits quite nicely for this scene considering it is a song which is about a man who is trying to figure out his life. Just like Hamlet is attempting to do with his life right now. The first line of lyrics which fit the scene is, “I thought we could wait for the snow To wash over Georgia and kill the hurt.” Showing that events are not going exactly the way he thought they…

do not feel bad for Daisy due to the fact people, like Wintebourne and Mrs. Walker, tried to help and warn her; however, she did not listen. Winterbourne must have really loved this girl. No matter what he was always there; even when she chose to parade around with Mr.Giovanni and push Winterbourne to the side after he’d came all the way to Rome to see her again.…
