Journey of the Magi Robyn Mclaughlin 'Journey of the Magi' was penned down by nobel prize winner TS Eliot and is a contrast of experiences based on the nativity of Christ. The monologue describes the journey of the Magi to Bethlahem in search of spiritual pacification and is an account of Eliot's own conversion to angelican faith. As per the Gospel story, the Magi were the three wise men who belonged to the priestly class of magicians and had come to bethlahem to pay homage to the infant christ by presenting him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. The Magi carry symbolism of the wandering human souls in the search for spirituality. To allow the reader to understand the different layers of the poem the poet uses techniques such as biblical allusions, symbolism and carefully thought out form and structure.
Eliot uses this metaphorical journey to Bethlehem as a symbol for how experiences that might not be the easiest will change your life and might cause new things in life that may make you feel uncomfortable at times. The first stanza discusses the hardships that the Magi faced on their metaphorical journey to Bethlehem. The journey was “such a long journey” (3) that was taken during the “very dead of winter.” (5) The rough winter conditions that the Magi were traveling through made it difficult for them to have an enjoyable trip. The speaker, being one of the Magi, wishes they were still in the “summer palaces” (9) where “silken girls [were] bringing sherbet” (10) to them. Despite all of the things they were going through on the beginning of their trip they knew that when they arrived to Bethlehem they would be rewarded with the birth of Jesus.
When Abraham gets to the new land which God told him to go to the Lord appeared to Abraham and sad I will give this land to you. Abraham then built an altar there to the Lord that appeared to him. The second covenant that God gave Abraham was to be a father of the numerous descendants. Abraham was blessed personally, and personally honored. After Lot had separated from them God said “lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, Northward, southward, eastward, and westward” He told Abraham that for all the land that he sees, will be given to him and his descendants forever.
Jun Hee (Daniel) Lee Tom McCollough REL 110 05/06/14 Gospel of John: A Study of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane The Gospel of John treats the story of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, also known as the betrayal of Christ, in a manner starkly different from that of the Gospel of Mark. The reason for such a stark difference is two-fold, rooted in Christological and eschatological differences in the two Gospels. The Gospel of Mark paints Jesus as a hidden Messiah whom his disciples devalued and consistently misunderstood; eschatologically, the Gospel of Mark is urgent and therefore portrays Jesus’ death as a necessity for the imminent apocalypse to come. The Gospel of John presents us with a transcendent and understood image of Jesus, a divine being whose death is a glorifying release from mortal flesh; eschatologically, the Gospel of John argues that the end has already been realized, portraying the risen Christ as a spiritual watcher of the community. The changes made in John therefore are a reflection of the Christological and eschatological statements that the author is trying to make, which this essay argues is partly in response to the absence of the imminent Second Coming proclaimed in the Gospel of Mark.
In both, The Female Marine by Cohen and A Narrative of the Life of David Crockett by Crockett, the representation of mobility is portrayed as difficult, exhausting, and tough throughout most of the characters journey. However; the reason and the path of mobility is different for each book. I believe that the phenomenon of leaving home is always sad, but there is place for celebration and positive outcome. Brewer mourns the phenomenon of leaving home because it was a forced escape of reality rather then moving to pursue a dream, whereas, Crockett celebrates his choice of leaving in order to achieve a greater purpose. In the beginning of The Female Marine Brewer feels forced to leave her home, family, and friends behind in order to protect them of her shameful and humiliating acts.
This expresses her foolish philosophy that although she was an animal she wanted to live a life of being more and that those ribbons which symbolized the oppression by the humans meant everything to her. She once again had the desire to live with humans and the luxuries she once had and she reflected in the mirror what it was once like. Mollie did not care about her fellow animals whom worked diligently on the farm. She was always late to work and left early. In the winter she was always late, as she made excuses such as myterious pains and over sleeping.
Another way the poet shows that the relationship isn’t a very loving one is that he says “’Not near, not near!’ her eyes beseech”, this means that she begs him to stay away from her so therefore the relationship can’t be that good.”I’ve hardly heard he speak at all “is another good indicator that it’s a one sided relationship as to even have a friendship you have to talk to the other person. Despite all of this at the start of the poem it says “I chose a maid“ which gives the impression that he wasn’t interested in romance only lust and her good looks but now he has fallen in love with her but she doesn’t feel the same way towards him. The manhunt In this poem the relationship portrayed is a lost love that was once there a long time ago and is now trying to be rekindled. An example of this is “After the first phase after passionate night and intimate days” this shows that there have been stages to their relationship and at the very start it was good as they had both physical and emotional attraction and love for each other but they are now at a not so good stage of their relationship. Another example of this “the frozen river which ran through his face” this is a metaphor for him being emotionless so he doesn’t show affection towards her.
Only she doesn’t care about it”. Alan knows she is not in love with him and doesn’t care about him; he is ready to give her the love potion and deny the fact that beneath the love potion Diana doesn’t care. The old man in this section has seen many young men like Austen that were chasing their romantic desire before. The old man doesn't agree with Alan's romantic thoughts and shows differences between youthful thoughts and adults ideas of love. Last but not least Alan's depression gets to him therefore he is ready to do whatever it takes to make Diana loves him
