Poe really out did himself. The Red Death showed that no matter how fancy the house, clothes or food one cannot escape the fact we all die and can’t escape death. Throughout the whole story the Prince believed that having extravagant things and his stunning castle would safeguard him from The Red Death. In fact, death can’t be escaped not even by the Prince who thought of himself safe. “When he chases the unwanted guest through the rooms it showed the journey of life.”(Paragraph 10) Also the…
In lieu of planning a step too far ahead and allowing time for even the slightest apprehensive breath to come in between, I quickly reached forward without a second thought to obtain what I know will only cultivate me in the twisted yet hauntingly stunning journey that is…
leave for school, my father preaches the same aphorism, “It is better to give than to receive, Jackie.” And every morning, I shrug off these same words. I reflect on the immense joy everything I have received in my brief 17 years has brought me. The stunning images I am gifted by Kubrick, Fincher, and Reitman triumph any present I have received under the tree on Christmas morning. The writings of Kate Chopin and Charlotte Perkins Gilman bestow on me lessons that would have taken a lifetime to…
the present day. Archaeologists found a city frozen in a single instant of the distant past. Preserved beneath the ash and pumice were shops and taverns, a forum, streets, auditoria and houses. Several of these were richly decorated inside, with stunning frescoes and beautiful sculptures and ceramics. The reigning Roman emperor at the time of this disaster, Titus Vespasianus Augustus, won praise and admiration for the speed and humanity of his response. He organized effective emergency…

food-commercial: the product in-person isn't as impressive. A few things stand-out as designed, but not to where it seems like it's right in front of you. It's the equivalent of a children's pop-out book. Outside of that, the visuals are incredibly stunning, using the best in computer graphics to create the majestic, exotic paradise that is the backdrop. The plot is essentially the same as the 1967 cartoon version: an abandoned child, Mowgli, gets raised by wolves in the jungle and has to evade…
For starters, the archetypal theory applies to the children’s story given that Carle uses characterization that expresses his idea on how child development is a long process but the results are significant and beautiful. In the book, Carle uses only one character, the caterpillar, that goes on a journey to discover its own beauty. In the very beginning, Carle writes, “One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and-pop!-out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar”(Eric Carle 2). Carle…
