    Eternal Hydra

    • 1048 Words
    • 5 Pages

    The play Eternal Hydra, by author Anton Piatigorsky, displays the ambiguity in distinguishing between true authorship and plagiarism. Piatigorsky does this by revealing Gordias Carbuncle's journey in attempting to write a massive one hundred chapter novel. In the written text of Piatigorsky's Eternal Hydra, Carbuncle is clearly perceived as a thief as he gives no credit to those who deserve it. However, in Touchstone's Production of Eternal Hydra by director Katrina Dunn, actor John Murphy allows the audience to see Carbuncle in differently and not judge him so quickly. Murphy's verbal and physical interpretation of Carbuncle lets us see how hardworking and ambitious Carbuncle really is, and in doing so, Murphy helps the audience feel compassion and sympathy towards Carbuncle, despite his terrible greed and selfishness.…

Moreover, Achilles and Hector are most important roles in the poem that we need to analyze them deeply.…

    I feel as if Achilles is very loyal to all the people associated in his life, especially his best friend Patroclus. Achilles’ loyalty to his best friend shows how much he actually cared about him once he was deceased due to his great sorrow in his weeping. Achilles also stated “if destiny like his awaits me, I shall rest when I have fallen” meaning he doesn’t care about whatever happens to him in the battle with Hector, but just as long as he shows his participation and grief. When Hector and Achilles faced each other he had great determination into killing his foe in spite of his best friend, twirling his shaft twice at Hector killing him. Achilles seems to be sensitive once Priam brings up his father, then his mood changes and sadness fills the room. Overall, Achilles seems to have much love between his companions.…

    Magisterium

    • 2815 Words
    • 12 Pages

    In Catholicism, the magisterium is the authority that lays down what is the authentic teaching of the Church. For the Catholic Church, that authority is vested uniquely in the pope and the bishops who are in communion with him.[3] Sacred Scripture and Tradition "make up a single sacred deposit of the Word of God, which is entrusted to the Church",[4] and the magisterium is not independent of this, since "all that it proposes for belief as being divinely revealed is derived from this single deposit of faith."[5]…
