    Similarities Between Romeo And Juliet And Miss Havisham

    Love is presented as a troubling and destructive emotion in both ‘Romeo and Juliet’ and Duffy’s poem ‘Miss Havisham’. Shakespeare frequently uses oxymorons to convey Romeo’s extreme and conflicting emotions to the audience, ‘feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health’. These oxymorons imply that everything that Romeo thought he once understood has been reversed due to his love for Rosaline, leaving him confused and isolated. ‘Sick health’ in particular highlights the contrast between Romeo’s physical and emotional wellbeing – although he appears to be physically healthy and normal, he is going through emotion turmoil within as his love is unrequited.…

    The Embers and the Stars by Kohak

    In The Embers and the Stars by Kohák the intersection of time and eternity is expressed. Kohák has focused on "natural" time, which is to say that time is not just what is expressed by a clock, or with a series of numbers on a clock. "It is, rather, set within the matrix of nature's rhythm which establishes personal yet non-arbitrary reference points." This means that time is not measured in seconds, minutes, or hours but by personal existence and experience. These "reference points" are experiences in your life that are meaningful and you help spatially distinguish points in time. Time as we know it is explained by Kohák as a "construct imposed upon nature's rhythm, subordination and ordering it". He does say that it is a useful construct, but as for the theory of relativity time does not hold up.…
