MAD Magazine: Its Success
Words: 332 / Pages: 2

.... when counter culture was at its peak, a time when rebelling against "the system" and not "selling out" were the ideals of popular culture. The fact that the magazine held within its covers no advertisements catered to the ideal of not selling out, which drew a faithful audience. The second factor is tradition. As is true with most MAD readers of my generation, My first encounter with the magazine was when I was a kid, going through some old things of my father's in the attic. I came across an old issue of MAD and became interested in it although I only understood a few of the satires that it contained. It is a fact that most young people who read the .....

.... be; for this alliance may so happy prove, to turn your households rancour to pure love."(Act 2, Scene 3), he is saying that the only reason he will marry Romeo and Juliet is because he hopes that the marriage will end the hostilities between the two houses. When he says "Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift, and hither shall he come; and he and I shall watch thy waking, and that very night shall Romeo bear thee to Mantua." (Act 4, Scene 1), he tells Juliet how everything will be all right. Unfortunately, for all his good intentions the play still ends in tragedy.

Gustave Courbet's Reclining Nude
Words: 1511 / Pages: 6

.... her straightened left leg. The woman is not as thin as classical nudes, her hips are somewhat broad and her thighs are slightly heavy. Her arms are crossed languidly over her head. Because her arms are crossed over her head, her face is almost completely in the shadows; this shadowing covers the detail of her face in such a way that she could be almost anyone. She gazes wistfully at the ground to her left. The woman is rendered very softly and is in a very sensuous pose. This picture would have been found scandalous for its sexual overtones as was Courbet's La Demoiselles au bord de la Seine. A scarlet cloth lies in front of her; it ha .....

Death Of A Salesman : A Social Criticism
Words: 1780 / Pages: 7

.... it would take a short tome to discuss all the classic arguments on Miller's excellent work, the focus of this theme will be on Salesman's value as a comment on society. Willy does not meet America's twentieth century economic standards of success, therefore he is seen as a failure; he absolutely will not entertain the possibility of finding a job more suitable to his talents, even though perhaps he could function as a member of society if he did; and he lives in a deluded bubble, angry, self-righteous, too proud for his own good... qualities that simply do not survive in America's production-based, time-crunch, fast-food and fast talk society. The .....

Words: 1198 / Pages: 5

.... usually unfair and harsh yet baseless), and knowing the boundary and limits of fantasy and reality (being aware and in control of how and why we create fantasy in our lives). The most dominant theme is that of personal loss, and then prejudice & fantasy v. reality, respectively. Personal loss is something we all will deal with at some point, and probably several points, throughout our lives. Some may be “luckier” than others when it comes to the severity of such a loss, but the key to surviving it, is how we chose to deal with it. In losing his wife Mary, John Riley lost himself. He was obviously a great man in the time she was with him; .....

Words: 1134 / Pages: 5

Several details in the story “Oedipus the King” are a result of fate. For instance, Oedipus is forewarned of his fate. When he went to Delphi as a young man, he was told that he was “doomed to sleep with [his] my mother, doomed to murder [his] my father (1080).” For most of his life he was forewarned of this horrible fate. One could argue that it was this inescapable fate that led him to marry the Queen of Thebes and kill the King, unknowingly fulfilling his prophec .....

Words: 2256 / Pages: 9

.... and found out from her captain that he was alone. His name was Shaq, captain of the Check Mate. He claimed to be a Romulan captain in search of Federation asylum. I had never heard of such a thing; in Romulan society, loyalty to the Romulan Empire is more sacred than life itself. In any event, I was certain that we would learn a lot more during the next few days. Star date: 32851.5: Captain Shaq claimed that he was defecting in order to prevent intergalactic war.
