Stark Industries

Part of being a commissioner was that he had to find a purpose and task for every worker in his unit. He would use this position’s power to spread what he believed to be a better ideology on how corrupt monopolies were in the railroad industry, and it wasn’t hard for him to have built relationships with fellow people on the team. Long also held a restorative leadership trait. Restorative is probably his most obvious trait, because his focus was to find what was wrong, and would then think…

major plot line. The deaths of Robb and Catelyn were hard to process as they were supposed to be the ideological ‘good guys’ in the story, who were going to avenge the death of their king in the first season. After the equally shocking death of Eddard Stark, a main protagonist in the first season, there was a moral calling in the story for justice to be served. However, Game of Thrones does not follow the conventional method of story-telling. The show used its’ large casts to confuse its’…

Robert Penn Warren All the Kings' Men portrays the rise of Willie Stark from poverty to governor with the help of his right hand man Jack Burden. For a better analysis on how to do the right thing in politics through Willie Stark, Thomas Aquinas and Niccol'o Machiavelli provide sufficient evidence to support his methods of leadership. When Machiavelli stated, "Ascent to princely power by some criminal or evil conduct; and the rise of a private citizen to supreme authority in his land through…

Jon Snow is constantly influenced by the steadfast morals of his father, which that been deeply ingrained in him since he was a child, and his outsider status as an illegitimate child of Ned Stark. Tyrion Lannister is influenced by his father’s morals as well, Tywin pounding into his son that the only thing important was the family, as well as the lack of familial love that too set him as an outsider in his own family. Daenerys too has learned…

hostage in hopes to get her daughters back from Cersei and Joffrey. These events, and many more are causing Chaos in Westeros. In this journal, I will be predicting, questioning, and connecting. First of all, I will be predicting the fate of Sansa Stark. I predict that she will not marry Tyrion, like Lord Tywin wants wants her to do. One reason for that prediction is Sansa’s plan to marry Willas. Margaery has plans to take Sansa to Highgarden so that she may…

people knowing he was breaking a code of conduct, “sworn safety of guests”, at what was supposed to be a peaceful wedding. After this horrendous act, if it wasn’t already easy to think of Tywin as the clear villain of the show through his war with Starks and his constant bad treatment of Tyrion (another protagonist and his own son), it was now impossible not to think of Tywin as the clear villain. He had just ripped everyone’s hearts out and everyone absolutely despised him for it. I honestly,…

In his speech, from the episode of Game of Thrones “The Laws of God and Men” (2014), Tyrion Lannister argues that “I did not do it, I did not kill Joffrey but I wish that I had….”. Tyrion supports his argument by using the appeal of pathos and ethos. His purpose is release anger and hatred that has been stored up from everyone judging, discriminating and hating him. Tyrion’s audience is his family, who blamed him for the death of his mother which died during Tyrion’s birth, and all the citizens…

weakness and acts with aggression to override that weakness, Cordelia sees her tears not as weakness but as the source of her power. This characteristic is seen in the way Prince Joffrey perceives the “feminine” weakness of tears and the way Sansa Stark and his mother Queen Cersei use that so called weakness and turn it into a power. Game of Thrones can be used to support many of Khan’s points in The Absent Mother in King Lear but the two argument that are best supported by the society that…

Law and Policy Paper: Stark Law Many laws and policies that are passed into legislation focus on the ever-important topic of healthcare. From the Health Insurance and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (commonly called the Affordable Care Act [ACA]) of today, healthcare is an issue that will forever be in the forefront of our societal concerns. However, the law I chose to discuss here is the Limitation on Certain Physician Referrals, more…

men fails to balance the act of living life and the act of taking on responsibility for his actions. Jack Burden overthought the act of taking on responsibility, and failed to act at all. Tom Stark underthought the importance of taking on responsibility, and made too many irresponsible decisions. Willie Stark over marginalized the meaning of responsibility and ultimately suffered the same way as his own son. Therefore, beyond each character specific application of responsibility, perhaps the…
