All is Well in Land of “The Lion King” In the article‚ All’s Not Well in Land of “The Lion King‚” by Margaret Lazarus‚ the author over exaggerates an animated classic‚ investigating as to whether or not the movie is politically correct and morally right. The essay examines and stereotypes the movie‚ and comes to various misguided conclusions. Lazarus defines the hyenas and the lion‚ Scar symbolic‚ and declares that Disney already has gays and blacks ruining the “natural order.” She also draws to

The two halves of John 12 have a very different tone‚ as Jesus moves from the private eye into the public sphere. Lazarus and his two sisters remain in the narrative as well.

Lazarus is threatened. The Greeks are threatened. John’s rendition of the classic “triumphal entry” narrative is full of sorry‚ in that regard

This gospel narrative of John contains a series of “signs”‚ in which‚ it signifies the gospel’s word for the wondrous deeds of Jesus. Among the signs is the raising of Lazarus in Chapter

Throughout the poem‚ Plath uses metaphors about the Holocaust to illustrate Lady Lazarus’s pain and suffering‚ and this may provoke sympathy in the reader. She decribes Lady Lazarus’ foot as a “paperweight” and her face is “featureless fine Jew linen” which may connote the narrator’s feelings of being heavy and undistinguishable from those around her. The poem may be an extended metaphor for depression. If the character’s foot is a “paperweight” then it would be difficult to move‚ and Plath may be

Comp 111-B 81 Foley No Resurrection Sylvia Plath’s poem Lady Lazarus‚ signifies her struggle with life through suicide and resurrection. While the tone of the poem is quite morbid‚ the theme of death throughout the poem is portrayed in a positive manner. Some may argue that the poem illustrates resurrection‚ but in actuality‚ it depicts the writer’s wishes to be dead‚ and a lack of wanting to try and make life work. The author makes many references to killing herself and it comes across

Commentary on Lady Lazarus Sylvia Plath uses dark imagery‚ disturbing diction‚ and allusions to shameful historical undertakings to create a morbid yet unique tone that reflects the necessity of life and death in her poem‚ Lady Lazarus.
