Back in 1593‚ the year The Taming of the Shrew was written‚ women were looked at as if they were possessions‚ not humans. While reading Shakespeare’s play‚ one can see evidence that supports this idea. Shakespeare displays Petruchio as the dominant males that teaches his wife how to obey by treating her as an animal rather than a human. It is clear that The Taming of the Shrew allows a man to degrade a woman solely because of her gender. Although this kind of behavior is looked down upon now‚ back

The music itself may just be a word‚ but if you look into the word ‘music’ carefully‚ there is more than that. Inside music‚ there are genres‚ styles‚ rhythm‚ lyrics‚ and so on.

Isn’t reading stories that allow the reader to think of what would have happened more intriguing? Stories that have so many interpretations make the reading experience even more phenomenal. I chose “A Rose for Emily” because of how many conclusions I was able to find after just reading through once. “A Rose for Emily” was so carefully constructed that it allowed for multiple interpretations by the end of the story. It also allowed for mixed emotions towards our main character Emily. The plot consists

In this week’s class some of the things I would like to further discuss‚ is the presentation and my thoughts about them. When Monica presented I was memorizes by the song and her art.
