“In this financial year we will be spending at least $1.5 billion on foreign aid and we cannot be sure that this money will be properly spent, as corruption and mismanagement in many of the recipient countries are legend” (Hanson, n.d.). Aid to Africa is presently not helping, but it could. The current way that most of foreign aid is being given/received is not helping a continent that is trying to develop, such as Africa. Much of foreign aid’s problem lies within the impersonal way it was given…
King Lear and Waiting for Godot are plays that are very similar in a way that they have the same central concern of recognition within the plays. There are many different ways that the issue of recognition is shown; there is self-recognition, recognition by others and recognition of actions. Whilst these plays differ from each other in almost every other way, they do share this central concern. Recognition means the acknowledgement of the existence, validity or legality of something. The many…
indefinable. So much can fall under the categories of these types, like art, love, and poetry, that deems them impossible to narrow down into workable definitions. A blank canvas can be considered art and free verse is somehow still poetry, but the vagueness of the definitions of these words is not what plagues the attempts to specify the American identity.

The novel is written in a dark, melancholic, and nightmarish mood, having a “black-and-white” air. It is written with an austere style of a monotonous-sounding prose. Overall, the environment is implied as dreary-looking, as seen from Winston’s eyes. As a matter of fact, the plot setting is simply a fictitious version of mid-1950’s geopolitical map. Just as the actual history saw three spheres of influence dominate the world, namely the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), which was the…

Mill's On liberty, which was written in 1859. In a fact, the authors were born different century and also, had different ideas. They were successfully influence the society by sharing their ideas.

Prompt 1 One of the greatest and most renowned biologists of all time, Charles Darwin, wrote a fantastic novel The Origin of Species. The Origin of Species begins with an extraordinary image of existence as coexistence. Darwin describes this through the process of how multiple beings rely on each other for survival. Morton describes this as, “Water and air are like hair and feathers. Living and nonliving beings become the medium in which other beings exist.” (Morton 61) He also goes on to say,…
