Whitman's repetition of words and phrases. The speaker is a man riding the ferry between Manhattan and Brooklyn musing about the various sights he sees, including the water below and his fellow passengers. He remarks how all the other men and women appear “curious” to him, and thinks about the many people who will be in his same place throughout the years.

glimpses that would make me less forlorn; Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea; Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn. SUMMARY: The speaker complains that "the world" is too overwhelming for us to appreciate it. We're so concerned about time and money that we use up all our energy.

Our correctional system uses multiple approaches to punish criminal offenders depending on the severity of the crime, number of past crimes, and the potential of re-offending.

It has rarely used science based methods, though it is beginning to see the benefits of such methodologies and will most likely implement more science base

Dear Diary, Today is August 1, 1942 and I finally received news on Clifford’s [my husband’s] whereabouts. Clifford wrote me a letter dated July 4th -almost a month ago, explaining that, in about a month’s time, they will be advancing into war. He told me that they would be fighting on the Channel coast as a rehearsal fight for their later invasion of Germany.

Explained In the history of America there has been no bigger blemish on the record of America than the one created by the treatment of African-Americans by the dominant white society. The African-American experience in the U.S. is a long, and at times sickening, view of the social psyche in America. The history of African-Americans in the U.S after the end of slavery is one of an arduous process of assimilation. This assimilation process has been well chronicled through both writing and film.

Time is of the essence: break down of “To His Coy Mistress” by Andrew Marvell The poem, “To His Coy Mistress” by Andrew Marvell, is considered a carpe diem (meaning seize the day) kind of poem. The author really gets into the character of a man trying in vain to convince a young lady to engage in a sexual relationship with him.

It is a pretty thing, As sweet unto a shepherd as a king, And sweeter, too: For kings have cares that wait upon a crown, And cares can make the sweetest love to frown: Ah then, ah then, If country loves such sweet desires do gain, What lady would not love a shepherd swain? His flocks are folded; he comes home at night As merry as a king in his delight
The Old Man and the Sea Summary There is an old fisherman, Santiago, in Cuba who has gone eighty-four days without a catch. He is "thin and gaunt with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck,...and his hands had deep-creased scars from handling heavy fish on the cords. But none of these scars were fresh. They were as old as erosions in a fishless desert" (10). Santiago's lack of success, though, does not destroy his spirit, as his "cheerful and undefeated" eyes show (10). He has a single friend, a

Pyotr Stolypin became a minister of Internal Affairs in Russia in the spring of 1906 and later Prime Minister from 23rd July 1906 until his assassination in
Meredith Fischer ENGL 102B P. Kreller Reviving an Archaic Form: The Old Ballad Tradition in “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” OUTLINE Thesis: While “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” does not conform without exception to the Old Ballad traditions, it most effectively uses these traditions to construct a narrative form that both involves and mystifies the reader. (A) Like the Old Ballads, “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner”
since then along my hungry, heat-hazed way there have been further bunches of scribbled sheets, swings of the hammer, sharp exclamations of two-inch nails. Long ago when I was green my beloved said to me in fondness, 'Oh, you Moor, you strange black man, always so full of theses, never a church door to nail them to.' (She, a self-professedly godly un-Christian Indian, joked about Luther's protest at Wittenberg to tease her determinedly ungodly Indian Christian lover: how stories travel, what
