The Parallel

pronouns in Kennedy’s address not only strengthens the speech’s main subjects about civic responsibilities and human rights, but also touches the audience’s heartstring and eventually persuades them to take Kennedy’s side. Kennedy first employs parallel structures to emphasize his arguments and appeal to the audiences by creating an intense and unify tone. In paragraph 6, Kennedy promotes the idea of…

AUSTRALIA RULES? MAYBE NOT. Mykayla Bennett discusses the strong parallels between the film “Australian Rules” and contemporary Australian society. R acism. Sexism. Domestic violence. Yes, those are themes from the 2002 film “Australian Rules”, but they are also issues within Australia’s modern and self-perceived multicultural and equitable nation. The film “Australian Rules” (directed by Paul Goodman) is an astonishingly truthful portrayal of Australian identity. Through Goodman’s use of…

fetched, but also lacking substantial evidence for it. Parallels can be seen all throughout the world; some are related while others are merely an accidental byproduct. Dennis MacDonald, a member of the Jesus Seminar, “argues that the Gospel of Mark, upon which he believes Matthew and Luke are based, was intended to be an inspiring myth intentionally modeled after Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey...[because] he claims to find significant parallels between Mark and Homer” (Boyd and Eddy 83-84). Even…

the Southern part under the control of the United States. The Soviet Union was communist and the United States was against communism. The two sides were divided at the 38th parallel. Both sides, the North and South, were not getting along and they were having constant skirmishes and battles along the border at the 38th parallel. Attempts were made to negotiate a unified country and for all to get along, but the negotiations were going nowhere. So in the year 1950 the Korean War started, June…

The syntax introduces two characters whom are described in the same parallel sentence structures, yet these two characters are described quite differently. These men also play a large significance in Hester’s life where Chillingworth is her legal husband and Dimmesdale is the man who Hester had the affair with and caused her to be known as the sin within her community. Thus, this syntax introduces these two characters in a parallel fashion who play very significant roles in Hester’s life, yet…

These themes were all demonstrated by Jesus and that’s where the parallel theme between religion and J. K. Rowling’s novels come together. Just because a novel has parallel themes does not mean it is immediately classified to a religious novel. Many novels have themes that parallel the Bible. That should not mean that Christians should criticize the novel. These parallels can be seen through Lily’s sacrifice to save Harry from Voldemort and the friendship Harry makes…

In Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window, there were many parallels between the two protagonists and the neighbors they observed through the window. Jeff seemed mostly in parallel with the newly married couple, which reflected his idea of marriage. In the first scene when he talked about not wanting to marry Lisa, the newlywed shuts down their blind, which to me indicated Jess shutting down the idea of marriage. As the story progresses and they open their blinds up, the new husband seems to look…

The Japanese creation myth and the Greek creation myth are not only very similar to each other, but they have many differences as well. These similarities are often portrayed through parallels between the two myths. These parallels are illustrated through the unity of heaven and earth, the rules of the Underworld and the state of many characters and deities throughout the myths. One very important difference between the two myths is in their origin. To elaborate on this, the Japanese creation…
