As you enter the cathedral through the central or royal portal‚ the eye is drawn to an amazingly inspiring ceiling. This is not unusual in a cathedral‚ since majestically tall ceilings are used to point the way to heaven. The chairs have been removed from the aisle that will take us to the apse‚ and we are unable to proceed directly down the aisle‚ as a floor labyrinth draws us to wander the famous labyrinth of the Chartres Cathedral. Upon finishing the circuitous walk‚ we continue to the apse

“What does your heart tell you?” Do I have company in the living room when I am watching one of my girly movies? Please. I’m sitting there alone (unless I have some girl-friends over). But with “She’s the Man” males were present watching it and enjoying it. Amanda Bynes strives to prove a point that girls can do anything that a guy can and not only scores the final goal to win the game against Cornwall but also wins over my stingy brothers.

I felt that the picture provided in the lectures did not do this cathedral justice. It is an example of gothic architecture on a monumental scale. The cathedral that stands in Chartres now‚ is the final design of the building after a fire in 1194. It took a mere 26 years to rebuild Chartres Cathedral into the master piece it is now. Many things draw me to this cathedral. Just to name a few‚ the mystery‚ the symbolism‚ the speed in which it was built‚ the veil of the virgin housed within it

Being Smart enough to take a hint from the lesson plan‚ Raymond Carver disguises some very subliminal sexual innuendos in a few different places throughout the story of Cathedrals. On the surface it’s a story about a man losing his social misgivings for the blind by coming to understand what it is like to be in that person’s shoes‚ so to speak. If a few scenes are looked at in a different light though‚ they bring on a completely different meaning for what the narrator experiences. The first clue

Name: Hao Nhat Le Class: 15B The language and point of view in “ Tell- tale – Hearts” Edgar Allan Poe made “Tell – Tale – Hearts” story special for the reader. It is a study of paranoia and mental deterioration. He combines the narrator and protagonist. Poe writes this story from the perspective of the murderer of the old man. When an author creates a situation tell a personal account‚ the general shock of the story is sharp. In my opinion‚ it is greats story because of using of language and

In the story “Cathedral” by Raymond Carver‚ the narrator is overwhelmed with disappointment and misunderstanding in his own life. He doesn’t see all the beauty and creativity in the world‚ but merely goes through the motions of life without actively living. Blindness is an underlying theme in this story‚ but not only as a physicality‚ but a social handicap. The narrator may be more capable of sight than the blind man‚ but he knows nothing of the descriptive illustration of life. It is through the
