To understand the meaning of A Dolls House by Henrik Ibsen we read the whole script. To go deeper into the meaning we used our own drama abilities to explore. To understand the meaning of A Dolls House by Henrik Ibsen we read the whole script. To go deeper into the meaning we used our own drama abilities to explore. We used Hot-Seating, Collages, and Still Image. All of these three things helped me understand the meaning of the play and explore the characters further. The script…

It appears Amanda’s case is connected to Chomsky’s and Pinker’s Linguistic Innateness theory. The Linguistic Innateness theory emphasizes on the notion that language, or “universal grammar,” is innate and is executed through a language acquisition device (LAD) we are all born with (Wolf Nelson, pg. 59-60, 2010). Although the location of this device it is not specified in which area of the brain it is, it in within us. It assists us in acquiring and executing certain aspects language and, if it…

I am going to become the first to be college educated in my family. This wouldn’t have been possible without the drive and push that my fellow peers, teachers, and scholar community have set upon me. It did not seem like affording college could be possible. But thanks to multiple foundations they are going to make it possible for me. I can’t hide the fact that my SAT score-although higher than average- is not as high as I would of like it. But paying to take SAT prep courses is a commodity I…

but this isn’t always the case. In “The Doll’s House,” the Kelvey sisters, Lil and Else and the Burnell sisters, Isabel, Lottie, and Kezia are juxtaposed to show their conflicting positions in the social rankings. The Burnells, due to their higher rank, brag to the schoolgirls about the beautiful doll house they had received as a gift. While in their boastful conversation, they leave out the Kelveys, a low class pair of sisters. Although forbidden to make contact with them, Kezia invites the…

Rank and Bottom, as static characters, are used to provide relief in both plays. “He told me that when the cards came it would be his leave- taking from us. He means to shut himself up and die” (Ibsen, Act 3). This is Nora explaining Dr. Rank’s card that he left, announcing his death. Dr. Rank was a static character because although he died, he did not change internally. He provided relief right before the climax of the play. It gives the reader a moment to sympathize for Dr. Rank before the…

To avoid looking too self-important both authors use the third person in their writing. Both, however, make their literature counterpart heroic in different ways. Xenophon, as an exiled traitor, must rise through the ranks by proving how competent he is. He devises clever tactical plans and rallies the soldiers with impassioned speeches. Xenophon the character is charismatic, smart, and most of all heroic. “First I went to war with the Thracians, and for the sake of…

Today’s modern dictionary definition of honor is to have high respect or esteem (Dictionary.com), but the way in which we define honor…

society failed to kept their promises with soldiers, they provided bad foods, worthless clothes, and insufficient payment. The soldiers often used protest and defiance in the their ranks and the patterns of protest are very complex. Defiance came in both form; individual and group. Soldiers tend to get drunk, deserted their rank, steal goods from civilian, and rebeled against the government.…

Classical Asian politics, particularly that of China and India, were influenced by the religions and/or philosophies in their respective regions, being that China was strongly affected by Confucianism and Daoism and India by Hinduism and Buddhism. In China, Confucianism played a prominent role in the Chinese government by how it sought to rectify any sort of political disorder through an emphasis on virtuous behavior. As a result, most rulers tried to act neither greedy nor arrogant, but…
