‘It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.’ – Albert Einstein I thought that the best way to understand such a topic would be to ask the most obvious question. What is humanity? The dictionary states humanity to be the human race‚ human nature and of being humane and benevolent. It is‚ however‚ a controversial topic as to whether or not we can lose our humanity if it is‚ in the end‚ human nature. In this day and age it seems as though we are going through

Devon Hoover 9/27/12 Argumentative Essay Mrs. Johnson From the intriguing book The Scarlet Letter ‚ there are two men that have conflicting viewpoints on sin. One man‚ Rogers Chillingsworth‚ believed that all men should confess their sins to show that they also are not perfect and may be liable to sin.

Edith Wharton’s‚ The House of Mirth published in 1905 was definitely letting us know that women of that time period were expected to act of a certain way and be of a certain social standing. They were also expected to be married. I feel that Lilly Bart resented the fact that women had to be up to society’s standards. Throughout the novel Lilly must change herself as if she were a chameleon. Always trying to please the people she was around‚ or adapt to the places or circumstances that she created

These days it is more the idea of anything goes. The idea that popular conceptions of femininity and masculinity instead revolve around hierarchical appraisals of the natural roles of males and females gives people the

Lily Wang CRITICAL ANALYSIS “The moral order has to catch up with the moral necessities of actual life in time‚ here and now.” What Joseph Campbell means is that people who are living now have to live by their own morals and standards‚ not those of their previous generations. The “moral order” he talks about is the set of values and ethics people follow in daily life. As time progresses‚ society changes‚ and its social norms have to change along with it. Just in 2013‚ France revoked their

contrast this for ‘The House’ and ‘The New House’. I believe that the poem ‘The New House’ by Edward Thomas is about a person‚ most likely the poet due to the first person narrative that has moved into a new house. However‚ we can see from the language used in the poem that he does not like the house‚ and it constantly disappoints him. Robert Minhinnick’s poem ‘The House’‚ is‚ in my opinion‚ about a man in the loft of his home trying to fix the electrics‚ realising that the house owns him‚ rather than
