In comparing Ancient Egypt and modern day Americas‚ I found a few similarities and differences in their every day lifestyles. Things like religion‚ government‚ social class‚ writing‚ and their job specializations. It was surprising to me to find out that the ancient Egyptians way of leaving was somewhat like ours. Of course there are heavier differences‚ but still they were very modern for their times. Also I am in strong belief that we learned many things that are in our culture today from Ancient

Whether one thinks it’s absurd or fascinating‚ it has an impact on our culture. Countless people know that the story of how the seasons came about has to do with Greek and Roman mythology. More specifically‚ the Homeric Hymn to Demeter. I will be comparing and contrasting three versions of this story that are all written in third person. I believe this point of view lets the reader understand most every detail to the fullest extent. Perhaps if a story was written in the view of Demeter or Persephone

1930’s black and white film Frankenstein by James Whale and 1994’s film Edward Scissor Hands by Tim Burton are two movies about a misunderstood creation that is seen as an outcast and practically shunned by the community.

Between the two works of art chosen‚ The Beautiful Girl by Hannah Höch and Olympia by Èduard Manet‚ the major key difference would be the form by which the two pieces are presented. The Beautiful Girl is more abstract and leaves more to the imagination‚ while Olympia is well laid out and more self-explanatory to the audience. While the audience might not know the meaning behind a piece of art‚ the artist who created it has in some way shown their meaning to the world. Whether it is through the picture

I am comparing the poems ‘Flag’ and ‘The Charge of the Light Brigade’ (CLB) which are both from the conflict cluster. The poem ‘Flag’ is written by John Agard and the poem ‘CLB’ is written by Alfred Tennyson!

This makes them think
