The name of the artwork that I have chosen to analyze is Home‚ Sweet Home by Winslow Homer. Homer first came to national attention during the Civil War with his accurate‚ vivid sketches of life at the front. As an artist-reporter he accompanied the Army of the Potomac in the Peninsula campaign in Virginia‚ observing camp life and some combat. While Homer drew a few traditional military scenes‚ such as bayonet and cavalry charges‚ he mostly depicted the utterly unheroic day-to-day activities of ordinary

A Home Away From Home What do you consider a home? Do you define your home as a private place; somewhere you sleep during the night or where you’ve been living you whole life? According to studies‚ “home is where you are most comfortable; it has effects on your education‚ emotions even physical health. Our homes are more than financial assets. They have deep emotional meaning (Ablow)”. But‚ if you ask me‚ a home is where you feel most comfortable‚ where you find yourself most peaceful‚ somewhere

attention. We read articles relating to gender equality‚ eating disorders‚ racism‚ and much more. In my opinion‚ the main two articles that have inspire me the most are Nancy Mairs’ essay “On Being a Cripple” and Zora Neale Hurston’s essay “How It Feels to Be Colored Me”. I have chosen these essays not only because of the ‘key concepts’ that can be found in each of these texts but also because of their similarities both stories share. They both discuss how they refused to be defined by how society

A Home away from Home Getting into Bethlehem university wasn’t one of my initial options of the number of available universities at all.

Like mother like daughter‚ that’s a phrase that’s used when the personality or behaviors of the mother are found to be similar to those of the daughter. A lot of people assume that one’s daughter is just like their mother‚ and a lot of the times that is true‚ in some aspects. In other aspects‚ mothers and daughters can be complete opposites. My mother and I are the perfect example of having similar behaviors but at the same time being completely opposite of each other. Ever since I was a kid‚ I’ve

“A genius of the South‚ novelist‚ folklorist‚ anthropologist”--those are the words that Alice Walker had inscribed on the tombstone of Zora Neale Hurston. In the essay How It Feels to Be Colored Me‚ Zora explores her own sense of identity through a series of striking metaphors. After realizing that she is of color‚ Hurston never really places a significant emphasis on the racial inequalities that exist in America. “At certain times I have no race‚ I am me.” Zora Neale Hurston did not have any
