I suddenly‚ and quite strangely‚ have found myself conflicted about Peter Pan. I thought I knew the story‚ believed I was familiar with it. My Mother has used the term "Peter Pan Syndrome" to describe nearly every young member of our family at one time or another. It means you never want to grow up‚ just like the boy in Walt Disney’s animation.

Response to: The Stranger The essay: “The Myth of Sisyphus” and the novel: The Stranger‚ both by Albert Camus‚ are conjoined with the similar theme of exploring existentialism‚ or finding the meaning/purpose of one’s life. The essay’s relevance to the novel is well established by Camus’ explanation of the concept of “the absurd” and how this philosophy governs the actions of all human action.

African-American history is the portion of American history that discusses the African American or Black American ethnic group in the United States. Most African Americans are the descendants of captive Africans held in the United States as slaves from 1619 to 1865. The history of African Americans in the United States has been an irony of incredible accomplishments in the face of human tragedies. Without the study of Black History there would be no American History. African American History should be

1 Why Study Philosophy? The ancient Greek philosopher‚ Socrates‚ once said that “the unexamined life is not worth living.” Philosophy provides students with the tools they need to critically examine their own lives as well as the world in which they live.

Have you ever wondered why many of your professors have a Ph.D. or “doctor of philosophy” even if they do not teach philosophy? Philosophy

There have been many other versions created‚ including Peter and Wendy‚ which was published in1911 and Walt Disney’s 1953 animation‚ Peter Pan. There are few unchanging elements‚ which are responsible for the story’s worldwide reputation and its survival. However‚ most people
