Plato’s dialogue: The Gorgias‚ 482e-484e: The Speech of Callicles When I first began to read this passage I was a little confused at the message Callicles was sending to reader and to the philosophers of that time. As I continue to study philosophy I get the sense that most philosophers question the same thing for reason of being. The question of “why” and “what makes…” is the common theme with most things I’ve come across in this course. To read a passage that was written which portrays the

I have cited below some reasons why the Moro people are in conflicts with The Republic of the Philippines. First‚ during the celebrations of “The Declared Independence” the Filipinos of Luzon and Visayas considered this as the beginning of freedom and independence. On the other hand the Bangsa Moro considered the event as the death of their own freedom‚ and independence. This is because during that time‚ being a Christian is compulsory. They felt like the government was trying to eliminate their

Headlock is the one I know. Interviewer: Sorry‚ what has Jake told you that he is working on? Stephanie: Nothing. I didn’t know he was with Divvee. Interviewer: Okay.

For my father committed one of the most unforgettable crimes possible by one’s own lips. The slander he perpetrated was in stating that a sandwich can still be labeled a sandwich when it consists of more than two slices of bread. This slander pollutes not only myself‚ but my family all the same. The impiety of his ludicrous act must be purged by means of prosecution. SOCRATES: Then it is without a doubt‚ Gyro‚ that your knowledge of sandwiches and that which

The two essays that I have chosen are "This One’s for the Birds" by Paul Finkelman and "The Case Against Tipping" by Michael Lewis. These two essays in particular have some things in common‚ but they do have some significant differences between the two. In this paper I will try to compare and contrast these two essays and hopefully bring something to the reader’s attention that wasn’t there at first. In the first essay‚ "The Case Against Tipping"‚ the author‚ Michael Lewis talks about whether

As I read this short story‚ I realized that the boy and I both have something to regret. First I will tell you about the boy’s regret. The boy was obsessed with a girl‚ but he was too scared to ask her out. He got to the point of liking her to where he knew her tanning schedule and what she did almost every day. The boy would even do endless circles of laps around her to try and impress her‚ but she didn’t notice him. Then‚ after a couple of days‚ he got the courage to ask her out. The day finally

English poetry in between two wars Introduction: The years between the two world wars (1919-1939) witnessed prolific poetic activity. It was a period when tradition and innovation went side by side. In the direction of innovation we can find such groups as the Imagists‚ Symbolists‚ and Surrealists working‚ whereas we also find some traditionalists fighting a last-ditch battle against the forces of change. However‚ most of the poets of the age combined tradition and innovation; and even the most

made up of foreign cultures. Some say America is a "big melting pot." All foreign cultures melted in this "big melting pot‚" and created this unique culture. However‚ these foreign cultures‚ the people in fact‚ need time to melt and dissolve. Ironically‚ there are people who do not even melt at all. People who live in China Town‚ for example‚ never have to speak a single English word‚ and they live just fine. On the other hand‚ some foreigners have to interact with others who speak English. They need

Dialogue is the conversations and words spoken aloud by characters in a novel‚ a film‚ or a play. Dialogue in a play is not just words put together to form a sentence; but they are words that promote feelings to the audience whether it be direct or indirect. William Shakespeare is famous for the way he wrote his plays‚ he wrote his plays in iambic pentameter‚ which is having five pairs of syllables on a line of dialogue that do not rhyme. He also wrote lines of dialogue that rhymed but were not in

It is easy to notice a similarity on the surface of two things that look alike‚ but when two stories are completely different in their content‚ it is not easy to detect a similarity. For instance‚ after we read for the first time “The Necklace” by Guy De Maupassant and “A Good Man Is Hard to Find” by Mary Flannery O’Connor‚ we cannot connect these two tragedies together. Both were written in a different time by different authors‚ and they end in a different way. However‚ if we study deeply both stories
