These pieces not only showcase similarities and differences in style and technique but also the strong points of both empires and essentially the reason why Assurnasirpal and Darius were successful leaders, each in their own way. Assurnasirpal II Killing Lions is a low relief panel made out of alabaster, whereas Darius and Xerxes Receiving Tribute is a low relief panel carved out of limestone. The Assyrian piece depicts the vicious king Assurnasirpal on a chariot hunting lions armed with a bow and arrow. It is quite possible that Assurnasirpal II Killing Lions is the representation of a ceremonial hunt, where lions kept in captivity by the king are released into an arena for Assurnasirpal to kill for show. Darius and Xerxes Receiving Tribute depicts King Darius sitting in his throne accepting tribute while his son Xerxes stands behind him.
The sculpture of the “Lion Man” depicts a figurine of a lion standing straight up such as a man would stand. It is unclear as to the details of the figurine but it appears to still have several physical attributes of an animal such as the paws of a lion. This is the oldest statue to ever be found and already on of the most popular themes in Egyptian reliefs and sculpture and Greek sculpture can been seen. The sculpture features an anthropomorphic lion, or a lion given human like qualities. This theme is central in many Greek statues of deities and Egyptian statues of gods.

This ties in with the tiger representing nature ("dwelling in a forest of the night"). By asking what Immortal eye, he is beginning to tell of the majesty of the tiger by insinuating that only an immortal hand or eye. He does not ask, 'what hand or eye' but 'what immortal hand or eye' and that is an important distinction. This calls the reader to bring to mind not only the majesty of nature, as previously mentioned, but the question of where would such majesty come from? Not only that, but Blake here uses the word 'fearful' comparing again the tiger to nature, who's perfect balance could be described as symmetry.
Always Remembering Does God judge people for who they are, or is God’s only duty is to save the world? In the Gospel of John, he states that God does judge people. John: 22-27 says, “For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son. The Father hath given him authority to execute judgment.” In another verse that we read God does not judge people for who they are, but came to this world to save the firm believers. In John 12: 47 we read, “And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.” Therefore in my paper I’ll explore if God judges people of their personality, character, and reputation, or if God’s duty is to save the world.
The keeper and the lion are described as ‘growing old together’ and they are both ‘moth-eaten’, further blurring the distinction between human and animal. In fact, the lion is referred to as ‘elderly’, a very human term. In return for his ministrations, the lion keeper is rewarded by being the one who ‘could stroke’ the lion’s head: a symbol of the lion’s trust in him. He also knows what it is like to ‘plunge fingers / into rough glowing fur’; this highlights both how close their relationship is, and how, like animals in the wild, it involves an intense physical exchange. The ‘glowing’ fur reflects the almost primitive power that the lion possesses.
Drummond classifies as Brady an “expert of the bible.” Drummond uses Brady’s devout Christianity against him as he questions him. Brady explains to the jury and audience that the bible should be taken literally, and nothing inside of it is false. In response, Drummond makes claims that everything in the bible cannot be taken literally because some instances are so absurd and do not seem possible. Events such as the flood and turning sticks into snakes are physically incapable of being real. Next he asks why humans are even given the ability to think, otherwise we would just be animals.
