What Is Tahmineh's Speech
In her speech, Tahmineh provides some examples of why she believes Rostam is a hero. (1.) When she says "But like a legend I have heard the story of your heroic battles and your glory, of how you have no fear, and face alone Dragons and demons and the dark unknown." (2.) Tahmineh also says "Of how you sneak into Turan at night and prowl the borders to provoke a fight." (3.) Tahmineh admired the warrior inside Rostam when she said, "when warriors see your mace, they quail and feel their lion hearts within them fail

    I chose to summarize the speech of Shawnee Chief Tecumseh’s address to General William Henry Harrison. Chief Tecumseh starts his speech by addressing what type of person he is and who he has made himself to by. He is speaking to General Harrison about the division, loss, and sale or Indian lands. He believes the land is provided for everyone not for division among men. He warns of the trouble to be foreseen if village chiefs are continued to be destroyed and the war it will create between the different tribes and the unknown consequences for white people. If boundaries are crossed and the land is not given back it will produce great trouble between the Indians and white people. He asks for pity to be taken upon the red people and explains…

    I have to say while reading about Tecumseh: Speech to the Osages it was very interesting to hear his point of view about a lot of things back then. And I like how he addressed everyone as brothers because what I get from the reading is that we are all equal no matter how we look. And they were saying that back then the white men were weak not very strong and the Indians help them and no they want to kill them instead of thanking them for what they did for them when they were down on their feet. All they want is peace they don’t want to be bothered. We have all come a long way.…

    Some people believe that louis Riel was a traitor, but other may say otherwise. For an example he saved his people of Red River from losing all of their land, fought for his rights, and was there when his people were in need of him the most. A hero is someone who fights for the right cause and that's exactly, what Louis Riel did. One example of his heroism acts, were that when the Canadian Government sent surveyors to mark the land for their railway, This had cut of the meti land where they had farmed for generations. When the surveyors came across Louis cousins farm, he stopped them from coming any further.…

    Thank you for your insights. As for Aeschines’ speech against Timarchus, Aeschines tries to bring Timarchus to account about why he blames the city, and its laws and regulations by saying to him “You will see, then, that Timarchus cannot blame the city for any part of this prosecution, nor can he blame the laws, nor you, nor me, but only himself.” Through Aeschines’ verbal attack over Timarchus, we can question why Aeschines defended the city and its rules and laws against Aeschines’ claims. Were Aeschines’ claims fake or false?…

    Chapter 3 is profusely important to the novel as it is the chapter in which the novel’s titular character, Jay Gatsby is finally introduced to the reader through the narrative voice of Nick Carraway. One of the ways that Fitzgerald does this is through the use of structure and dialogue. At the beginning of chapter 3 both the narrator, Nick Carraway and the reader are introduced to what a typical party at Gatsby’s house entails. “In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars” This quote highlights the key elements of the lifestyle revolving Gatsby. “Went like moths” this indicates that people are drawn to Gatsby due to “the whisperings” meaning the gossip about him and his questionably sourced money. Fitzgerald uses this chapter to build up to the introduction of Gatsby. This build up is continued through the use of dialogue in the chapter “...he was a German spy during the war” this highlights the speculation surrounding Gatsby as well as the infatuation the other characters have with him; it also reflects both Nick and the reader’s feelings at that point in the novel with regards to the mystery of Gatsby. Who is he? By using these techniques, Fitzgerald initiates the growth of a crescendo to the introduction of Gatsby. A crescendo which falls flat as Gatsby’s introduction is completely overlooked by both Nick and the reader who are so consumed by the scene and speculation around them, that they miss the very thing they are looking for. However this misdirection is extremely indicative of Gatsby’s character; he likes to observe and remain elusive as well as foreshadowing that much like his introduction, expectations built up for Gatsby will ultimately lead to disappointment.…

    “There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” As William Shakespeare states in Hamlet, we are constantly learning and redefining the borders and boundaries of our knowledge. This is true not only of our own internal minds but collectively as it pertains to research where we know something works, but we can’t explain how it works. The vine of the soul or Ayahuasca transcends the mundane world of our everyday lives and grants passage to vistas known only to initiates. Ayahuasca, also known in the Portuguese language as Hoasca, has been enlightening the indigenous tribes of Brazil for centuries. In addition, ayahuasca is mainly consumed in tea form. Some of the ingredients include the stems or bark of the Banisteriopsis caapi and other plants. Drinking the tea is a spiritual ritual that seeks enlightenment and is guided by a shaman, otherwise known as a holy man. Furthermore, during this journey there are adverse side effects, and this is just one of the reasons an experienced guide is an integral part of the Ayahuasca ritual. It is said that the tea can bring closure or perspective to the passing of a loved one or other emotional traumas.…

    In my opinion Louis Riel was a hero because he fought for the rights of everyone who lived in the northwest, he was rebelling against a government, not a country and he was against acts of violence and loss of life. Furthermore Louis's acts might be considered crazy by today's standards but in the 1890's it was not uncommon or insane. Louis lived in the Red River settlement and wanted to protect their rights but he also fought for the rights of the white settlers in the area and for the natives. Louis was a patriot, he was proud to be Canadian, he just didn't agree with the government at the time.…

    What they want is for me to truly take on the role they designed for me. The symbol of the revolution. The Mockingjay. It isn't enough, what I've done in the past, defying the Capitol in the Games, providing a rallying point. I must now become the actual leader, the face, the voice, the embodiment of the revolution. The person who the districts—most of which are now openly at war with the capitol—can count on to blaze the path to victory. I won’t have to do it alone. They have the whole team of people to make me over, dress me, write my speeches, orchestrate my appearances—as if that doesn’t sound horribly familiar—and all I have to do is play my part.…

    For my rhetorical Analysis assignment, I thought it would be interesting to analyze the speech King Hassan II gave after his meeting in Ifrane with the former prime minister of Israel at that time: Shimon Perez. King Hassan II tries in the following speech to justify his action of meeting “the enemy” after a lot of critism of the other Arab nations and some Moroccans who tought that it is a coward move to meet with Israel. Hassan the second was born in 1929 and reigned as king and the commander of the faithful for a period of 38 years. He was known to be a very pragmatic person and his period of sovereignty had a big impact on the Moroccan history. After his meeting with Prime minister Perez the 21th of July 1986, many Arab nations accused of sympathizing with the enemy. Khadafi called him a traitor and Syria decided to tear of the relations between the two countries.…

In Linda Hasselstrom’s essay, “A Peaceful Woman Explains Why She Carries a Gun,” the author describes the circumstances that led to her decision to buy and carry a handgun. Hasselstrom explains that while she lived in the great Northwest, her encounters with aggressive males were frequent, and the author felt forced to discover ways to protect herself while traveling alone. These frightening personal encounters took place while camping, driving the long distance home on dark deserted highways and even on her own property. She argues that taking self-defense classes proved ineffective because one must be able to touch the…
