The words homecoming, usually stir feelings of warmth and joy within us. But many readers have responded to Dawes poem in quite a different way. In twenty-five lines of dramatic poetry, Bruce Dawe’s “Homecoming” manipulates the audience to view the tragedies of war and the lack of respect that is given to those who fight within it. Dawes poems can help us to understand the effects of war on individuals and communities. Mrs. Tien has been the sole supporter of five children for almost two years; ever since she received the message that her husband would not be returning from the war.
Are patients conscious during a stroke? How do people recover from stroke? Although we consider stroke a scientifically well-studied condition, communicating what it is like to experience a stroke is markedly more contentious. Jill Bolte Taylor is a neuroscientist, who at age 37 suffered a stroke in the left hemisphere of her brain from an arteriovenous malformation (Taylor, 2006a). After allowing herself eight years to fully recover, Dr. Taylor wrote a book about her stroke and stroke recovery experience entitled My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist’s Personal Journey.
All throughout the beginning of the play, she is nagging, forceful, manipulative, and seemingly free of a moral compass and conscience. Before the scene where the gentlewoman sees her sleepwalking and washing her hands, Lady Macbeth does not even exhibit an inkling of a guilty conscience. She never so much as sympathizes with her husband when he feels remorse about his murder. Then, suddenly she is stricken with overwhelming guilt that keeps her up at night. Contrary to this, Macbeth has a gradual build up of guilt that starts even before the deed is done.
Anne Frank was an amazing, brave, and talented girl. In her diary, we got to know her, and see all of these amazing qualities. The most important effect of publishing her diary was showing how horrific and serious the Holocaust was, and proving that it actually happened. If Anne had lived, I don’t think she would have made a bigger impact than her diary. A diary is a personal book that a person writes all of their feelings, actions, and reactions to events or people.
I wanted to be at her bedside, wrapped up in her arms, I wanted to be there to see her breathe her last breath, but now it is too late , she is gone. My tears flowed continuously, especially in the night as I try to comprehend this sorrow As I took the flight back home, I was solemn and grief stricken, In the past I have always been happy coming home to granny, but not this time. I know that I would not see that vibrant looking little lady again , but would see a lifeless corpse in a casket, not a sound of her beautiful voice. I felt so cold inside; so many things I wanted to say to her, all the hugs I needed and wanted, and many, many regrets I’ve had. I wanted to be comforted.
