Force is characterizes as the capacity to control the conduct of others, even without wanting to. For instance, SpongeBob is at last allowed to be a corridor screen at his sailing school, however he squanders the school day giving a discourse and doesn't get the chance to do anything. That doesn't mean he can't be a Hall Monitor outside of school,…

I believe that Dr. Jiang is a very worthy candidate for the award, having distinguished herself among the Department of Music junior faculty by her impressive record of national and international concert appearances, and by her exceptional teaching of piano and chamber music.…
Imagism was a movement in the 20th century that focused on having a clear message and description in poems in order to provide vivid imagery for the reader. These poems often did not rhyme, had irregular beat, and depended on the power of an image to convey an emotion. It has been described as one of the most influential movements in English poetry. Two common and popular Imagist poets at the time and even today are: William Carlos Williams and H.D. (Hilda Doolittle). Both of these writers knew each other from college both share similarities in their poems. They both use imagery and write about nature in their poems. However, they also share many differences as well. I will compare and contrast some of Williams poems with H.D.’s poems.…

In What would you do?, Yoder combines outsider arguments and stories about nonviolence in order to strengthen his argument defending pacifism. In Gladys Aylward's story, You Say You Have the Living God Inside You, she offers a moving account of her time in China, and tells a story from when she was a missionary woman. Aylward explains her immediate fear to get involved in a prison riot, but she knew that she must advocate for peace in order to maintain her claim that she had the living god within her. The juxtaposition of stories and arguments allows for the combination of theoretical advice about pacifism as well as real life examples that prove their ability to work. Pacifists do not claim that nonviolence always works, however the collection…

Williams writing seemed to “flourished off of controversy” (Falk 28). He began writing at the age of fourteen as an escape from bullies and the abusive relationship he had with his father. He began as a poet and would always consider himself a poet. Williams often laced his work with poetic verses and simple rhymes to make the words flow with ease. Inspiration for Williams’ play came from his own life. Often, he uses the character, the “southern gentleman who can not cope with contemporary society” (Falk 37) for the basis of his male characters. Williams considered himself a “southern gentleman who could not cope with contemporary society” (Falk 37) therefore, he could easily draw from his own life experiences. Williams centers many of his plots around mental illness and sex, two very un-spoken-of topics discussed in the 1940’s. Williams was also fond of symbolism, which often plays key roles in his writing. The symbols in Williams’ plays represent some form of escape from the distorted reality in which the characters are living. By integrating personal experiences into his work, writing gave Williams a means of escape into…

While this statement may seem harsh and contrary to human ethics, many people may come to agree this is true. I, along with those who agree, have no doubt that disobedience opens doors to opportunities, progress, and change.…
Scepticism about technological determinism emerged alongside increased pessimism about techno-science in the mid-20th century, in particular around the use of nuclear energy in the production of nuclear weapons, Nazi human experimentation during World War II, and the problems of economic development in the third world. As a direct consequence, desire for greater control of the course of development of technology gave rise to disenchantment with the model of technological determinism in academia.…
