Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came Posted on February 18‚ 2013 by Bryan Scalici Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came I would like to comment on how Browning characterizes Roland’s past in “Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came”. As he travels the ridiculously bleak landscape leading to the Dark Tower‚ the only living thing he encounters is an emaciated demon horse.

Knudsen 1 St. Basil’s Cathedral As legend has it‚ the builders of St. Basil’s Cathedral were blinded by the command of Ivan the Terrible‚ so they could never create a building greater. There is still the question if St. Basil’s is actually the most beautiful cathedral made in its time. Comparing it to the beautiful Pisa Cathedral and Assumption Cathedral‚ which were made around the same time‚ one could find it hard to decide which is the most artistic. Looking at the materials‚ art‚ and icons

The most thought provoking subject was Chapter 3 in Cross-Tower‚ which discusses poverty in America. In my clinical lens‚ I believe the one major risk factor amongst clients is the inability to provide adequate daily life resources for themselves‚ which perpetuates long-term physical and psychological problems. The inability starts with “seeking” assistance from systems that keeps individuals locked into a cycle of “seeking” to provide. The seeking can be food‚ clothing housing‚ and community resources

I found Countee Cullen’s poem "From The Dark Tower" to be very interesting. The title itself gave me the impression that the speaker is some type of night watchman who was possibly watching over a field but could have just as well have been a planter who uses the planting and nature terminology to metaphorically relate to life issues.

walking arm in arm with my sisters down the Piazza di Spagna‚ giggling as gelato drips down our chins‚ as we make our way to the Spanish Steps. To be able to watch the awe and wonder on my young nieces and nephews faces‚ as they stare at the Leaning Tower of Pisa trying figure out how it is still standing‚ is worth millions to me. I would pay any price to see the joy on my mother’s face as she relaxes in a gondola passing under Bridge of Sighs or the tears my father would fight to hold back as he
