A Tale of Two Cities is a story about love, sacrifice, aristocracy, revenge, affection, benevolence, and anger. Sydney Carton depicts sacrifice, Lucie- Dr. Manette represents affection, and Charles Darney – Lucie shows love. The characterization of Dickens is very much realistic. A few of them act a little dramatically but stick to their characters just like Madame Defarge who is a hard-core revolutionary. He has used well-shaped powerful symbols in his novel that depict the sharp description of characters. The...

From my perspective, I think the best philosophy of human nature that I have learned from the class is Immanuel Kant compared to other philosopher such as Plato, Aristotle, Thomas Hobbes, Karl Marx, and Freud. Plato was known as the father of idealism and one of the forefathers of philosophy; which is the love of wisdom. Whereas, Kant was known as the father of modern philosophy; and also, his ideas and theories were thought-provoking and complex. In comparing and contrasting...

Space Age fashion was first introduced in the mid-to-late 60s by a French couturier who was passionate about engineering and architecture. His name was André Courrèges and his vision of fashion redefined the beauty canons of Western society, evading those already established by designers like Cristobal Balenciaga or the house of Dior (and its wasp-shape figure). Courréges reinvented the model of femininity: functional and liberating; full of movement. “Clothes must be able to move too”, he once said, creating a...

Loneliness is drowning in a sea or being lost in a crowd of people ‘your so-called friends’; it is believing that you are worthless to anyone or anything.

High school, it’s a time of laughter, fun, and of course stress; lots of it. It’s a time you spend with your friends. I have...

“Loneliness” harbors a mostly negative connotation: alienation. Because of this connotation, we do not automatically associate one gaining self-respect through loneliness. However, Charlotte Brontë’s masterpiece Jane Eyre disproves this initial thinking through the characterization of the strong-willed protagonist Jane Eyre– isolated her whole life figuratively and literally– and the book chronicles her maturation through adolescence to adulthood. This isolation though compels her to understand her self-worth, her value, an idea foreign to many women in the context of the time...

Relationships and social interactions have a big role and impact on our psychological well-being and happiness.

In Brave New World, Aldous Huxley depicts how people sacrifice their relationships, specifically family, to have a feeling of happiness. The people only have a temporary, self-centered, kind of happiness instead of true joy or strong emotions. They do not realize how much they are missing out, because they have never been around anything different; they are only told of the horrors of strong emotions or attachments and they are conditioned to think everyone is happy. Today’s society is similar...

Literary works serve to trigger more thinking of several timeless questions by transcending their settings and lending themselves to more generic universal realities and meanings. As such, readers can take away many messages and values from a novel that was written more than a century ago and reflect on our contemporary world, which is the case with Mary Shelley’s thriller novel “Frankenstein”. The novel serves to shed light on the potential dangers of excessive unguided knowledge and probes the influence...

I believe drama is a form of text that uniquely engages the audience and communicates with them through many different language techniques.

The three types of dramas he focused on were comedy, romance, and tragedy, which show the value of drama through dramatic techniques. In one of Shakespeare's most famous plays, Julius Caesar (1599), he used many...
