Leo stood at the helm of the Argo II. He was thinking about Calypso, obviously. He thought about the things he and Aphrodite had talked about a few days ago. Aphrodite slowly led him into the dining hall and then she sat down regally on one of the chairs. "Sit down," She said to him with a smile on her face. As Leo slowly sat down on the edge of one of the chairs, she ran her hand through her long auburn curls. "You know Leo, you and Calypso make a good couple." She looked at him an amused expression on her face. Leo hadn 't been paying attention her and he heard himself say, "Huh? Oh thanks." That was when his brain processed what she had said. "What?" He asked her, a rosy bloom crept over his face. "You and Calypso, Calypso and you," Aphrodite had a patient expression on her face. "Frankly, I think you will be able to find her again." "I will?" Leo asked her, "But what about the 'no man finds Ogygia twice ' thing?" "If you do it for true love…" Aphrodite paused for a dramatic effect, "Anything is possible." "But there 's a problem," She started. Leo knew there had to be a catch. "I told the other gods that you and Calypso will be together," Aphrodite said, "So if you don 't do it…things will look bad for both you and me. For you, because of the oath you took. And for me, because I am the goddess of love. That is why I am going to help you out. And since I am going to help you, I also expect you to find Calypso." Leo looked down at his hands and tried to wrap…

Perceval moved to chase after her, but suddenly realized he wore next to nothing, and unless he wanted to be tackled by the castle guard and tossed into the dungeons for indecency, he needed to dress. He raced around the room frantically, collecting his things all while shouting at Elora. The woman sat in bed, pouting, her arms crossed over her naked bosom. “Get the fuck out of my bed, will you?” bellowed Perceval, nearly apoplectic with rage, as he yanked up his trousers and slipped his feet…

I looked at my ragged blue clothes, knowing that I wasn’t where I belong. Tris and Tobias were leaving, and I wouldn’t be going with. Looking at my sister, I saw how much she could help the world. “Are you guys ready to go?” Tobias walked up with his usual swagger. “I’m not going with you guys.” I began to lie about why I would not come with them. Tris engulfed me in a hug. While waving goodbye, I watched them walk off; I turned around and began walking toward the tall glass building that…

Over the years, the struggle of becoming a popular artist in the music industry has gotten more and more competitive. Artists would struggle to find something that made them stand out from the rest, and eventually give up on trying to be illustrious, conforming to the basic chord structures and rhythms of every other popular tune. However, for twenty seven years, the expressionistic band Radiohead has constantly risen above the musical standards, ignoring everything about classical music theory…

A Cultural Comparison: “2 + 2 = 5” by Radiohead For many centuries, art has been a medium through which writers and musicians have chosen to express their political views and opinions on the world around them. One of the world’s most celebrated political writers, George Orwell, strongly influenced culture, including music, with his dystopian novel 1984. The 80s English alternative rock band, Radiohead, was inspired by the book’s commentary on what the world will look like in the future and wrote…

This along with the first two idyllic verses, which seemingly discourage free thought, supports the idea that music and other forms of art can be used as propaganda, much like the Party composes songs, literature, and movies that align with their beliefs and in doing so are able to consistently control society and discourage rebellion. Radiohead also makes reference to the other ways that the Party controls society; the use of repetition is another way that the Party is able to influence…

two poems discussed are “Dulce et Decorum Est” by Wilfred Owen and “Harry Patch (In Memory of)” by the rock band Radiohead. These two poems have one common theme -- war. Wilfred Owen’s poem “Dulce et Decorum Est” which translates to “It is sweet and right” is a poem about a proud soldier and his perspective during a nighttime battle in World War One (WWI). The platoon of soldiers is moving on the front from one location of the trenches to the next for safe haven from enemy attacks. While…

Stanley Donwood’s Get Out Before Saturday is a painting with several subtle symbols referencing, in my interpretation, a post-apocalyptic landscape. In this paper, I will be investigating and attempting to prove that Donwood’s inspiration for the piece stems from humankind’s deterioration of the planet through our ideological shortcomings in regards to both the environment, and global politics. Furthermore, I will be addressing my belief that Donwood intends to issue a warning through the…
