    “West.” The Romans took up the concept and applied it to the western half of their empire. Asia—or the East—was similarly a geographical innovation of the Greeks and Romans. Asia was that land that belonged to non-Greek cultures of Asia Minor‚ particularly the Persians. The Romans‚ too‚ regarded lands east of Greece as Asia. The name was retained and applied to other cultures beyond the Turkish peninsula such as China and India. Although what we refer to as “Western Civilization” began in the area

    In Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales‚ the pilgrims on their journey rarely do their jobs correctly. Only three of the pilgrims‚ the Knight‚ the Parson‚ and the Plowman‚ do what they are supposed to do. The rest of the pilgrims vary from slightly bad to morally apprehensible. The Pardoner‚ a pilgrim from the Ecclesiastical group‚ falls under the latter category. Chaucer uses each pilgrims appearance to symbolize their personal qualities. The Pardoner‚ as one of the morally apprehensible pilgrims

    I pick the poem called the "A Certain Lady" by Dorothy Parker for the poet presentation. I separate slides in two stanzas. The significance of the title‚ "A Certain Lady‚" tells a story of the lady who interacts with the man‚ but he is unable to see her love‚ and he talks about his exploits with other women to her. Both stanzas show how she pretends her happiness to the man‚ and he’ll never realize it. It’s a bit ironic that he goes out with other women‚ yet he is unable to see the lover right
