We can say from The Master and Margarita that while Jesus and Christianity is mentioned and relevant in the book‚ Bulgakov stays away from the sophisticated display of Jesus.

Text: Mao’s Last Dancer I chose the autographical novel ‘Mao’s Last Dancer’‚ composed by Li Cunxin‚ as it has several themes that convey the idea of a journey. It is physical in the way Li Cunxin had to work hard to be a professional ballet dancer and it is also mental as it is a road to self-discovery. The autobiography is also extremely inspirational and inscribed in first person‚ therefore this allows the reader to see the personal journey of Li. I believe this text also relates to Shakespeare’s

“What are your interests‚ Candidate 217?” The entire room was pure‚ brilliant white. The lack of colour was making him blink a little too much‚ so he chose to focus on the only object in the room that didn’t harm his eyes; a stunning brooch that graced the lapels of his interviewer’s jacket. Simple and elegant in design‚ a square‚ red ruby sat in its flawless nest of silver or platinum‚ his money on the latter. “I…don’t really have any‚ to be honest.” He felt like an idiot the moment he’d

During “Waltz of the Flowers‚” a part of The Nutcracker selection‚ the mood of rebirth and growth sept into the audience. The piece started very calmly with the dancers doing jumps about the stage. As the piece progressed‚ the jumps and leaps got grander and the movements became larger and more impressive‚ as the flowers “grew”.

My most cherished possession on my fourth birthday was a crystal rhinestone silver bun cover. I would wear it and dance around the living room‚ arms and legs flailing about‚ pretending to be a graceful and beautiful ballerina. When I entered second grade my fascination for ballet turned to gymnastics. All my closest friends were taking gymnastics and would teach me walk-overs and cartwheels. My single mother was too poor to afford to pay for classes‚ so I would learn the movements at recess then

Ever since I was young I remember dance always being one of those things that was always there when I needed it. Everyday I looked forward to going to class and working hard‚ doing my best to get better everyday.
