The definition of anti-Semitism in the Merriam-Webster dictionary is “hatred of Jewish people” . In the article “Anti-Semites”‚ Bernard Lewis discusses anti-Semitism and how Jewish hatred was originally defined by religious terms‚ but eventually evolved a racial issue.

I agree with the position Bernard Crick took in his article “The savage satire of ‘1984’ still speaks to us today”. Although the world made it through the year 1984 successfully without any Big Brother trouble‚ no one knows if something so controlling could actually be realistic one day. No one knows what can happen in the future. The scary thing is‚ ‘the future’ can be anywhere from tomorrow‚ to five hundred years from now allowing that hint of fear to stay present. It seems that everything in

I’m going to analyze an extract from a play "The man of destiny" by George Bernard Shaw‚ an Irish playwright‚ who was mostly talented for drama. He wrote more than 60 plays. Nearly all his writings are devoted to the social problems‚ but have a vein of comedy which makes their stark themes more palatable. The fact of his being the only person to be nominated both a Nobel Prize in literarture and an Oscar proves him to be a very talented person. "The man of destiny" is a drama and drama is a kind

Terrorism “Most Muslims are not fundamentalists‚ and more fundamentalists are not terrorists‚ but more present day terrorists are Muslims and proudly identify themselves as such.” writes Bernard Lewis in ‘The Crisis of Islam’. But Dr. Martin Luther King logically said‚ “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Terrorism has no absolute and globally accepted definition and its interpretation can easily be used or abused to suite particular needs.

"’Too awful.’ Bernard hypocritically agreed‚ wishing‚ as he spoke the words‚ that could have as many girls as Helmholtz did‚ and with as little trouble. He was seized with a sudden need to boast. I’m taking Lenina Crowne to New Mexico with me‚’ he said in a tone as casual as he could make it."’As seen from this quote Bernard’s only grudge against the New World is his loneliness‚ awkwardness and his weak physique and personality. Given a chance he would enjoy the New World to the fullest as he does

Chapter 7 in Bernard Haykel’s Saudi Arabia in Transition‚ the author addresses the subject of survival and life span of the Saudi regime by focusing on the instances in which oil is appealed in both the culture and politics of Saudi Arabia. A large portion of studies treat oil from a political point of view‚ the way the administration is structured followed by how income gathering allows the state to buy social peace through either winning over a large group or the creation of a generous system of

Bernard Marx is the Brave New World’s favorite outcast. He doesn’t "fit in" because of his "smallness”. He’s isolated by his status as an outcast‚ and his alienation leads him to be a critic of the Brave New World rather than a proponent of it. He wishes he could fit in and be "happy." Bernard’s critique of society stems from his frustrated desire to "fit in" and not from any logical or rational problem he has with it. We learn that he has a "reputation" for being "anti-social" and that he’s an outcast

Although Bernard has these individual thoughts and opinions on social circumstances‚ he doesn’t fully seem to comprehend what consequences come with wanting an individual purpose. The first indication of this is when Bernard is threatened by the D.H.C to be sent to Iceland‚ “The Director’s threats had actually elated him‚ made him feel larger than life. But that‚ as
