an integral factor of literature; sometimes‚ certain political events inspire poets and authors to cleverly voice their opinions regarding the event in ways that require much ambiguity and analysis to completely understand the author’s intentions. Poetic protest is best shown with careful choice of word‚ punctuation‚ and capitalization. The first example of political protest in poetry can be seen in “Buffalo Bills” by E. E. Cummings. Cummings dislikes the fame that Buffalo Bill received from his pointless

Essentially‚ this means that until one can

In 1889‚ the physician Oskar Minkowski‚ in collaboration with Joseph von Mering‚ removed the pancreas from a healthy dog to test its assumed role in digestion. The dog developed diabetes

stars were made rather than tracking the orbits of comets and planets. I find this significant because Herschel sought information that was different than what other astronomers were studying at the time. What was the motivation that led to the discovery? William Herschel was frustrated with the small telescopes he was using. He couldn’t afford larger telescopes‚ so he built one himself. He was observing a Nebula when he discovered Uranus.

forth in his work coupled with the repeated tragedies in his life makes me want to believe this essay was satirical in nature and to have a laugh at those too unwitting to realize it. Assuming that the essay is not a hoax‚ what is Poe’s preferred poetic composition? And in what ways does “The Raven” portray this easily fit cookie-cutter format? When Poe wills his writing to take wing it has three perches on which it likes to alight before allowing the winds to keep it aloft. His writing’s first
