a woman, Creon being fit to rule and not fit to be ruled, and the goal of a city and an individual. Aristotle rejects the fundamental equality of all and believes that there are people who can be rulers, the ruled, and slaves. As we analyze the philosophy of Aristotle, we see why he would support Creon. One of the compelling reasons as to why Aristotle would side with Creon would be because Creon is a man and Aristotle believes that a man has a natural rule over a woman because a woman is not…

The Ministers Black Veil is one of Hawthorne’s earlier works, but it is by far one of the most popular short stories he wrote. Parson Hooper is a young minster that begins to wear a black veil at all times. The sudden appearance of the black veil leads to a sense of confusion that spreads throughout the Puritan community. Hawthorne uses the black veil to symbolize the many forms of sin that people have. The Minister, Parson Hooper, wears the veil form the time the story begins to his death at…

Throughout Dante’s Inferno, the narrator keeps doing one thing in particular: he sympathizes with nearly every sinner he talks to in many of the circles of Hell. Whether it 's for someone who lost their true love, someone who was put in a tragic situation, someone “unintentionally” involved in something sinful, etc, Dante feels sorry for them. Virgil, Dante 's guide, plays a big part in showing what (the author) Dante was trying to say- sinners don 't deserve sympathy. Sympathizing with sinners…

As a Puritan, Bradstreet, believes vanity is one of the seven deadly sins and becomes self-critical of her fleshly desires asking: “And did thy wealth on earth abide / Didst fix thy hope on mold’ring dust/ The arm of flesh didst make thy trust” (38-40).

She constantly insulted the girl, whether Snow was in…

“Shame be to the man who has evil on his mind” Sir Gawain and the Green Knight prayer style, the poet ending it with an “AMEN” and following it with a reminder that “Shame be to the man who has evil in his mind”. This ending ties back throughout the rest of the poem to the idea that for Gawain to overcome his sin, he must stop hiding it and acknowledge it, something he struggles with until the conclusion. At the ending of the poem a request for peace is presented, yet it follows after bringing…

Memory is a process of encoding, storing, and retrieving information. It is the total sum of who we are and what we know.
