William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night that I identify with most is Maria‚ who is loyal and obeys authority‚ but is still able to enjoy herself; I share all of these qualities with Maria. Maria’s loyalty to Countess Olivia is demonstrated many times throughout Twelfth Night‚ and I demonstrate my loyalty to my family and friends every day. Maria‚ eager to do Olivia’s will‚ often reprimands Sir Toby Belch. Maria: “By my troth‚ Sir Toby‚ you must come in earlier o’ nights: your cousin‚ my lady‚ takes great

I was already aware of most of the atrocities committed by the Europeans but this book made it more personal for me to see who was affected by the Europeans actions. Most books that I have seen through my childhood and young adulthood

A Film Unfinished‚ The Last Stage‚ and Diamonds of the Night are all films that deal in some way with the Holocaust. However‚ the perspective and director’s intentions are so unique for each.

The Last Stage is authentic because real Holocaust survivors were recruited to act in
