The case of Escobedo V. Illinois set the precedent for the sixth amendment, which is the right to a counsel. It guaranteed that if a person is arrested then they must be informed of their legal rights, which gives them the right to remain silent. When Danny Escobedo was arrested in connection for the shooting of one of his relatives he received an 18-hour interrogation and was later released for not making any self-incriminating statements. Another suspect was later arrested and told police that Escobedo had committed the murder. He was then once again arrested and this time interrogated through the entire night. His attorney had been repeatedly denied permission to talk to his client. Escobedo as well had repeatedly asked to see his lawyer…
Stephen Sondheim looked around, “What a mess Andrew Lloyd has made.” 4. Harold Bloom claims that piercing Batman’s identity is key to the character’s subconscious, “He never claims publicly to be anybody other than Bruce Wayne.” To the world at large, Batman is a hero. 5.…

Batman all started with his bat phobia stemming from a childhood accident. He picks his own most-feared creature and turns it on his enemies; eventually he would make himself stronger by facing his fears. Batman maiden name was Bruce Wayne. Witnessing the murder of his mother and father as a child lead to him training his self to fight crime. Bruce decided to become Batman at the age of 25, and soon after that came the first Robin who name is Dick. Dick was only 12 years old. Bruce took Dick under his swing and showed him how to be a man.…
Beowulf, Bilbo, and Batman all have something in common that makes them who they are, they all show characteristics of what it takes to be a hero. Even though one of them did not think that they would have any type of heroism in them or they were just born into it. In the movie, The Dark Knight, Batman is more like a vigilante than a hero in my opinion. A vigilante is a member of a self-appointed group of citizens who undertake law enforcement in their community without legal authority, typically because the legal agencies are thought to be inadequate. Batman does a lot in Gotham to try to help with the crime but he does not get any type of recognition from the citizens.…
The Knight’s Tale movie demonstrates how the archetypal heroic knight creates a unifying viewing window from which a story can be viewed or perceived. William is this heroic knight, and represents a rallying point for the common observer to align with during their viewing. By its definition alone the archetypal knight is a desirable role that, internally, many wish they could fill. William as a character possesses this positive association, as well as being a more relatable character by being impulsive, headstrong, and rebellious. All of which are traits that the common man possesses to some extent, and thus can see themselves mirrored in Williams’s character.…
Many health care facilities have a hard time keeping up with claims and payments in medical records. Some facilities hire people just to handle these tasks. If not properly monitored, it can cause problems in patients’ accounts. Health care facilities use electronic medical records to improve profitability while reducing the time it takes to submit and receive payment for claims. Many of the facilities purchase software with billing and claims. Some of the advantages of using the EMR system is that they can improve patient care. There is less potential for medical errors as well as improved quality and safety in patient care. Another advantage is that it allows more time to spend with patients Physicians and nurses have more time to spend with patients rather than wasting entirely too much of valuable time searching for, waiting for, and correcting information EMRs create more time for the work we are trained to do. Currently, as healthcare professionals, we spend as much time performing administrative tasks as we do caring for our patients. Some of the disadvantages are the expensive start-up costs and the costs of training that is involved. Another disadvantage is that there are many EMR systems and many facilities may use a different system other than the patient’s primary care facility, and those records may not be available to at the time of the patient’s visit. An example of a challenged faced when implementing a universal EMR system is choosing a proper systematic approach to the identity problem and training health care personnel to work with a paperless…
Great and tragic love is something that happens to everyone in their life time. In the two completely different stories of Oedipus and Batman they both have them same story line. Batman and Oedipus are two different types of heroes but the same when it comes to the archetype theme of tragic forbidden love. In this essay I will explain archetypes, themes, and what the themes of these stories are.…
Frank Miller’s Batman: The Dark Knight Returns questions what is right and what is wrong. It makes you wonder if the government is the bad guy, or if it is the criminals, or maybe even Batman himself. Miller uses duality and creates closure to show that there is always another side of the coin and all you have to do is flip it to see it. He also uses art to build context and tension by starting with art that is abstract. The art slowly changes to brighter colors and less abstract art as the tension of the plot builds. With the use of an iconic archetypal vigilante seeking justice, Miller also emphasizes the ever-present question of morality.…
How can two heroic journeys be so different when they actually have so much in common? This is when two great people such as Christopher Nolan and Homer have their artwork made to be recognized and adored by all the world. “Batman Begins” and The Odyssey are both great works of art. Homer, the author of The Iliad and The Odyssey, is considered the greatest at ancient Greek epic poems. Christopher Nolan is the director, producer, and co writer of “Batman Begins.” He has been nominated 21 times for the Academy Awards and won six of them not to mention that his work has grossed approximately 3.5 billion dollars worldwide. Nolan has been described as “one of the most innovative storytellers and image makers at work in movies today.”…
As the writer of the Killing Joke, which is recreated into the beloved The Dark Knight, Moore distilled the elements of batman based on his understanding. Ozymandias is the charismatic, rich and intelligent Bruce Wayne, Rorschach is the crime fighting, butt kicking dark side of Batman, hunting ugliness and vermin of the society. His seek of truth and justice posed a horrifying obsession, where mercy and redemption are a kind of luxury. Ozymandias murdered millions based on his own will. Rorschach squeezes and tortures people, just because “I saw society’s true face.”…
Hundreds of years ago in Sherwood Forest, there lived a noble thief by the name of Robin Hood. Or so the legend goes. In fact, historians have not conclusively determined whether the Robin Hood of legend ever lived (Krall 22). The earliest forms of modern Robin Hood legends date back to 15th century ballads, but references to such a man appear much earlier. The first literary allusion to Robin Hood, specifically the “rymes of Robyn Hood,” takes place in Langland’s Piers Plowman, published around 1377. Today, the most prevalent view in popular culture holds that Robin was a supporter of Richard the Lionheart, but most historians agree that, if such a man existed, he lived sometime between the 12th and 14th centuries, nearly one hundred years…
Communication can be simply defined as the act of transferring information from one place to another. (“What is Communication?”, 2011). It can also be defined as a process by which information is exchanged between individuals through common system of symbols or behavior. (Mathewson, 2009).…

In summary, Batman’s “renaissance” is relevant to the reader of The Dark Knight Returns. Batman’s rebirth can be seen through, his physical changes, superhero power struggle, and his death. I would like to conclude that a hero is not meant to be the favorite amongst society as long as the hero serves justice then, the hero should be…
