Balanchine’s Prodigal Son I was not familiar with this ballet at all although I have enjoyed Prokofiev’s music when watching Romeo and Juliet.

have committed deadly sins… sinners? Well I honestly think that we are all sinners. The extent or amount of our sins may vary but not one of us can say they we perfect. I strongly feel that you would all agree that Christina is just a regular woman who wanted to care for her family but got caught in the sad aftermath of her large mistake.

The amiable Mark Twain cleverly jokes‚ “Go to Heaven for the climate‚ Hell for the company”. Although this humorous quote can tickle the imagination and produce a genial chuckle‚ one might discover that there is an element of truth that can be observed in this statement. Everyone dies‚ that is a simple fact of life that must be acknowledged. The real question that lingers in the back corners of the mind is the next step after life. Is it Heaven or Hell? Shall the damned be cursed to wander throughout

The Crucible “The witch-hunt was not‚ however‚ a mere repression. It was also‚ and as importantly‚ a long overdue opportunity for everyone so inclined to publicly express his guilt and sin‚ under the cover of accusations against the victims.” (Page 7 of Act One).

Is Belief in God Rational? I believe that God is good‚ the one Supreme Being‚ the creator and the ruler of the universe and belief in God is rational. God to me is a higher power and an entity that is above and beyond the universe. He created the universe and the physical laws that govern it. “The Lord made the earth by his power; by his wisdom he created the world and stretched out the heavens.” (Jeremiah 51:15) The verse tells us that the earth was made by His power‚ established by His

The fact that hubris causes Icarus’ death suggests to the audience that this play will not end well and to take note of Faustus’ pride so that they do not end life the same way.

Marlowe suggests through characterisation that hubris ultimately leads to damnation‚ constructing a firm Christian moral. Doctor Faustus is based on the German legend of “Faust” who uses his

Its also what makes everyone who they are‚ but too much pride can seize control of us causing an uproar of karma to surge our way.
