    For example, the airport in Columbus, Ohio, advertises its eateries on digital signage boards, strategically selecting spots in baggage claim areas or locations visible to travelers leaving the airport (Smith 50). The St. Elmo is located near a hotel and airport as well. When visitors come to a particular city, they will most likely look for what is next on their adventure, and being located next to a hotel and airport has helped immensely with visibility and the branding of the St. Elmo. The Capital Ale House launched a rewards program in 2013 that has helped their restaurant business grow. This program was designed specifically for hotels in the Richmond, Virginia area. The hotel employees can give guests a card that will entitle them to ten percent off their food at the Capital Ale House. The reward carries the hotel’s name and rewards points for the diner to the hotel’s account. Hotel managers will then be able to redeem points at their discretion, such as rewarding a staff member with lunch, or providing a hotel guest a complimentary dinner. The rewards system has played a huge role in getting hotels on the restaurants side. Now hotels in the Richmond area are seeing first hand a direct benefit from recommending the Capital Ale House (Smith…

    unique as the record of a woman’s heart by a woman, it is the truth.” (140). Smith explains this idea when he goes in to further analysis of the poem, “It is the heart of her, and the unforgettable eighth line is as an image of silver to refurnish our dull conception of that purity means” (Smith 140), in the poem Browning is saying that she has a pure love that she doesn’t expect to get any reward out of it. This poem is expressing the love for someone in a strong way, that shows that Browning…

    Adaptations present the development of ideas, which contribute to further understanding of the values upheld in the era of its creation. As such, Ovid’s narrative poem, ‘Metamorphosis’ 8 CE, depicts the dangers for man to deviate from the natural order. Leading on from this, Pieter Bruegel’s acclimatised art piece, ‘Landscape with the Fall of Icarus’ c. 1560, emphasises the sustenance of work. Also, as W.H. Auden’s poem, ‘Musée des Beaux Arts’ is heavily influenced by these presented texts, he…

    The Person Behind the Mask Every person is different and everyone has their own opinions. THe community that a person is born in is not a choice made by the individual. Two pieces of literature that really bring out these ideas are, “The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas” by Ursula K. LeGuin and “The Unknown Citizen” by W.H. Auden. In both pieces the author brings out a situation where a person is unhappy with their life and how the people around them live. “The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas”…

    Statistics do reveal to the true identity of a man. In “The Unknown Citizen,” W.H. Auden presents a Big Brother like state that knows everything about its citizens except for what really matters; this state views individuality as irrelevant and judges citizens based solely on their relation to society as a whole. The bureaucrat leaves out important emotional events involving the unknown citizen that seem vital to the judging of his character. Auden uses a speaker whose viewpoints contradict his…

    Part I Demonterius Dorsey What captured my attention the most in A.E Stalling’s First Love A Quiz , was how the actual poem was written in the format of a multiple choice quiz. The first line in each stanza starts off as a phrase, and the lines that follow are in A , B , C , format. The poem itself was short, yet very vivid and vague at the same time. Before reading the first line, I already had the impression from the title that the poem would be very similar to a quiz given by grade school…

    Literary Analysis: Dulce et Decorum est & The Unknown Citizen Verbal irony is something that can be used in our everyday life. Auden’s poem’s title, “The Unknown Citizen” begins with a verbal irony. Owen mocks war in his poem, “Dulce et Decorum Est” by showing how sweet and fitting it is to die for one’s country. Both of the poems use irony to present to the reader the pity of war, how there is nothing heroic about the “unknown citizen” and how the two poets have a similar intention on…
