Transition and character prove to be crucial elements used by playwrights Jane Harrison and Lally Katz in their powerful contemporary Australian plays. The playwrights manipulate these elements to create powerful, moving scenes in both Neighbourhood Watch and Stolen that tackle issues including the ‘Australian’ identity and isolation. By similarly incorporating elements, styles and acting techniques intended by both playwrights, my group was able to create a fully theatrically realised piece…

the first person point of view in his poem. Although it is scientifically impossible for a person to live as long and deep as he explains how his souls feels, he utilizes comparison of knowing the past of his ancestors to his deep feeling of race suppression. Langston Hughes made sure that the flow of his poem was easy to follow so that the reader would understand that, no he did not live to actually bath in the Euphrates river but his ancestors did, and during that time black people were being…

Glioblastoma (GBM) is considered a primary brain tumor which is extremely aggressive and difficult to treat. Glioblastoma is demarcated by highly aggressive proliferation with great invasive potential as well as refractory to present treatments due to suppression of pro-apoptotic pathways (Karmakar et al., 2007).

Darnton argued that the attacks were produced by a group of eighteenth-cetury French exiled writers who used London as a base. He has employed the concept of the ‘Grub Street hack’ to describe the…

One way whites reminded blacks of their incompetence and inferiority was through minstrel shows and their use of blackface. For whites by whites, minstrel shows featuring blackface were used as a source of entertainment…
