Before reading What America Would Be Like Without Blacks‚ by Ralph Ellison‚ I asked myself how would the author explain the title and what point would he argue from. He starts with questioning the “concept of race” and speak on the fantasies of a “blackless America.” Ellison goes on to talk about the history of the time period where blacks were almost removed. My favorite example of this removal was the quote from President Abraham Lincoln in 1862‚ “Your race suffers greatly‚ many of them by living

Dr. Amy Robinson Survey of British Literature‚ 1780-1900 November 7‚ 2011 Deadly Love Porphyria’s Lover by Robert Browning is surprising. The poem speaks through the mind of a man who kills his lover‚ Porphyria by strangling her with her own hair. Although my initial reaction to this poem was that the killer was insane and evil‚ a second reading revealed another meaning. Porphyria’s lover killed her‚ not out of malice but out of love for her. Throughout the poem‚ there are references to

Porphyria’s lover: Like ‘My Last Duchess’‚ this poem is an example of a dramatic monologue – a poem in which the impression the speaker unwittingly gives is rather different from the picture they intend to present.

"Why I like Country Music" portrays a loving married couple sparring about the legitimacy of square dancing as a valid art form‚ using it as a symbol for radically differing worldviews coming from upbringings in the North and South. The husband tells about a fourth grade crush that results in him besting the class know-it-all to square-dance with the girl on May Day‚ and to this day‚ the scent of lemon and the sound of country music remind him of those heady

What it means to be a lover of music What does it mean to be a lover of music? Being a lover of music means to be a lover of art. Growing up no one around me was into music much‚ so I never had much of an interest in music. My parents brought me up in a religious household. They had a tight reign on what music I could listen too. I started listening to the radio stations I wasn’t allowed to listen too as a kid. It was then when I discovered my love for music. The connection I got from listening

Because of the media’s bias‚ anyone living in the United States might easily think that America is superior to every other country in any possible category‚ including education‚ employment‚ and wealth. In reality‚ the United States isn’t at the top of its game. Many other countries are defeating the United States by a very large amount. This however‚ doesn’t mean that the United States isn’t above a large amount of other countries. Although the United

“Porphyria’s Lover‚” which first appeared in 1836‚ is one of the earliest and most shocking of Browning’s dramatic monologues. The speaker lives in a cottage in the countryside. His lover‚ a blooming young woman named Porphyria‚ comes in out of a storm and proceeds to make a fire and bring cheer to the cottage. She embraces the speaker‚ offering him her bare shoulder. He tells us that he does not speak to her. Instead‚ he says‚ she begins to tell him how she has momentarily overcome societal strictures
