It can be implied from this that Wolsey had the ability to obtain Henry’s annulment, but failed due to his lack of effort and his half-hearted approach. Furthermore, source 1 supports this view, first implying once again that Wolsey had good contacts and that he had the ability to influence them, “Stafileo has changed his opinion”. However, a lack of effort can still be seen here as he only instructed Stafileo of the facts. It is likely that source 2 is more reliable than source 1 as it was a letter written by the Duke of Suffolk who was not directly involved in the ‘Great Matter’. As the source is also from a letter, it is unlikely the Duke of Suffolk would not have feared angering Wolsey as otherwise the letter would have been private.
Despite the shift in context from 19th century England to late 20th century Beverly Hills, Austen’s main plot and ideas have been retained to a great degree. However, the different ways in which these ideas are portrayed in Clueless, as well as the variations from Emma’s plot, provide new insights into both contexts and hence emphasises the contextual influences that cause the changes. Through the consideration of Austen’s 19th century context we gain a deeper understanding of the impact of class attitudes on people’s behaviour and relationships. Social hierarchies are addressed through Mr Elton’s denial of Harriet and the corresponding action of Elton’s rejection of Tai. The character Mr Elton represents the class based attitudes of 19th Century England when he claims that “everyone has their own level”.
Adding on to this Mrs Cook also uses incorrect grammar which could also be due to where she comes from, ‘aint’ is said instead of ‘isn’t’ and is emphasised when the interviewer uses ‘isn’t’ ; showing the difference in regional areas are to have an effect on how someone speaks. Another example is’ they been’t too bad’ in contrast to when the interviewer says ‘they aren’t too bad’. It shows how someone’s grammar varies to another not because of their education and failure to learn standard grammar but to how regional areas have their own way of speaking, therefore highlighting the effectiveness of dialect to have in a spontaneous speech. You get the impression Mrs Cook is proud of her Gloucestershire
Spelling checkers cannot identify spelling errors that result in another legitimate word (e.g., “form” typed for “from”) and are hard to use on documents that contain numerous words (e.g., foreign terms) not entered in the incorporated dictionary. Grammar checkers—which also generally check punctuation, sentence length, and other aspects of style—have been criticized for their reliance on oversimplified
Targeting the notorious Herb Spencer and Gregor Mendel, as well as the modern intellectual pariahs like J.P. Rushton, Herrnstein, and Murray, Graves attacks paleo-Darwinian relics by repudiating such arguments as “the supposed infertility of European settlers and Australian natives” –pg. 426 of the article handout. Further on, Graves continues with the broken record by mentioning the Third Reich, sterilization of non-Nordics, and eugenics programs. At this point, Graves’ article comes dangerously close to crossing the line between academic redundancy and likely unintentional plagiarism from somewhere else, as all of this has been propagated endlessly in thousands of publications. If I were Graves I would’ve titled the article ‘We All Bleed Red, Don’t We?’, mentioned Madison Grant, H.S.
For example: "I believe that calling Asians "Oriental" is wrong because ... " - Use of examples, evidence, or other information to support argument: Back up your argument. For example, "According to Robert Lee, 'Oriental' was a term ..." - Coherence and clarity: I will not grade by how much or how little you write, but by how well you relate the thesis statement to the rest of your paper. For example, if your thesis statement is about the term "Oriental," but you lose focus and start talking about other things in your paper that have little relevance to your thesis statement, you will have points
"(Norton, 533) The attitude that Native Americans were "saved" by the Anglo-Saxon culture, Depicts their own as being inferior. "Second, their culture may be depicted as valueless, and thus not worthy of respect. "(Norton, 533) By focusing on only the negative characteristics in the Native American communities, value is taken from the positive. The real differences in the Native American culture may be ignored, while others, like violence and alcoholism are seen as their only cultural
David’s conclusions are not entirely accurate, because his conclusions aren’t as accurate as they should be. 2. Ollie Young Bear’s role is slight why is he included? Ollie Young Bear is included because he is Indian, well respected and might have information on Frank Hayden. 3.
The Europeans may have thoDidught of the Indians as savages and seen as them very different than themselves because of some fundamental differences in their attitudes, as well as some societal advances and practices that were completely foreign to the Indians. Upon arriving in the new world the Europeans were almost guaranteed to encounter some new things that they would not have the education, open-mindedness, or ability to understand and empathize with. Many of the first encounters natives had with the English were peaceful and mutually beneficial. The Indians had never seen the type of equipment, animals, or mindset the Europeans had.
