.... Shelley's "",there are two speakers; the first speaker introduced the poem for the first line and then the second speaker carries the poem to realization. It is ironic that the words inscribed on the pedestal "Look on my works. . . and despair!" reflect the evidence of the next line, "Nothing beside remains," that is, there is nothing left of the reign of the greatest king on earth.One immediate image is found in the second line, "trunkless legs.". One good comparison may be when the author equates the passions of the statue's frown, sneer, and wrinkled lip to the "lifeless things" remaining in the "desart." Another is when Shelley compares the .....

.... to justify my case. However, she is stubborn in a good way, in that she will not change her opinion, until given hard facts, which I did not have any. The conversation ended there, but for the rest of the evening I thought about what she had said. I guessed she was right, but I kept asking myself why was it that I was like this. I kept thinking about it, but I gave up, probably because I did not want to worry myself about the subject. Not until a while later, did the subject jump back into my head. Another friend of mine, was making plans with me over the phone to go hang out, but she kept asking me if what we were planning to do, is really .....

.... telling the Hermit his story, “Since then, at an uncertain hour that agony returns.” Since the first time the Mariner confessed his crime to the Hermit at an inconsistent hour God reminds the Mariner of the sin he has committed by piercing his heart with agonizing pain. He tells the Wedding Guest that, until he tells his story, “The heart within me burns.” This is God’s way of expressing his anger to the Mariner for the curse he put on his crew when he killed the Albatross. God makes sure that the Mariner has and will fell agony, that the agony will always return, and that the agony will return at an unsure hour e .....

.... the throne to lead the rest of his life in pleasure and in doing so he disrupts the Great Chain of Being, he challenges the position that he has been given and thus his family and indeed the entire nation, descend into disorder and chaos. The storm is symbolic of this occurrence, the weather imitates the state of men. "One minded like the weather," the gentle man recognises the disquiet and unrest of the storm, as a manifestation of the turbulence in Society at the time. He is not only responsible for the harmony of a nation, as the father figure it is also his duty to maintain harmony in his house. This he does with little success when &quo .....

.... full capabilities. Once we can use our powers the right ways we can respect the power and not use it for our own benefit at other's expense. I have personally known people to have some power in which they use incorrectly in everyday life. These people become weights to society. They affect the world everyday, many of the world's and the Unites States' problems have arised because of these people. Man will always have greed, it is in human nature...man will always be selfish. These traits can never be extinguished, but at least they can be limited to only certain uses, and maybe man can be accustomed to use these traits the correct way. All over .....

.... Music, and Art, along with the more traditional academic coursed such as Math, Science, English, and History. Many states require fewer credits than New York in these areas. For example, Florida only requires one credit of high school physical education for graduation, whereas New York requires four. A similar comparison is true for many other courses. This fact alone shows the higher standards by which New York State students learn, but there is more. Along with extra requirements in core courses, New York also has Regents exams. The Regents tests, state standardized, are long, difficult, and competitive. Students compete for Regents awards .....

.... summer night in 1907, the managing director of the White Star Line, J. Bruce Ismay, met at the home of Lord James Pirrie, a partner in the firm of Harland and Wolff, the giant Belfast shipbuilder that built all the White Star vessels. They met to discuss the plans for two very large ships, the Olympic and the Titanic. The two ships were almost identical in size, but the Titanic was some 1,000 gross tons larger, due to the more extensive and elaborate interior furnishings. (Gary's Titanic Page) The hull of the Titanic was finished and launched on May 31, 1911, but it would take another year to complete. With a total of nine decks, the Titanic was .....

.... top brass over the appointment of Secretary of Defense and she decides it is a good time to get what she wants - an integrated fighting force. Blackmailed and certain that no woman would ever succeed, the brass agrees to a test case and Lieutenant O'Neil is sent on her way. Unaware that she is the political pawn of a "feminist" Senator, Jordan O'Neill agrees to become the first woman to train with the elite fighting force. If Jordan succeeds, then she will strike a blow for the idea of women in combat, but no one expects or even really wants her to succeed. Jordan, appearing as masculine as possible, bravely endures humiliation, ridicule, .....

.... and anarchy this supposed hero leaves in his wake. Though not a hero, Macbeth is unaplogetically human. The issue of Macbeth's manhood constantly arises. Lady Macbeth manipulates her indecisive husband incessantly, disparaging his masculinity. Many of Macbeth's actions could be seen as attempts to vindicate his manhood. In weak opposition to the murder and in defense of his manhood, Macbeth argues, "I dare do all that may become a man who dares do more is none." His wife argues that by being more daring, he will become more of a man: (Act 1, Sc 7 49-51) " When you durst do it, then you were a man and, to be more than what you were, you would be .....

.... with the way the actions between Calixta and Alcee relate to a storm that had started almost as soon as Alcee rode up on his horse. As Alcee stands on the porch, (the actual text notes that he had no intention of walking inside the house), the water beat through the boards forcing Alcee to enter the house. The water even went so far as to actually follow Alcee into the house, to the point where it was necessary to put something beneath the door to keep the water out. More instances where the storm relates with the characters is when Calixta is looking out the window, and a lightning bolt strikes a tree, and causes Calixta to fall into the arm .....
