In the story “How to Build a Fire” there is a man and his dog traveling through the frigid temperatures of 70 below zero. In the story they never disclose the man’s name and it is very odd to me.

His body started to shut down and he count

registering for Blackman High School‚ joining JROTC was a no brainer. Especially when I learned I could take this class in substitution for gym class. JROTC is more than a class; it is a program all its own and within it are kids with a future. I would like to believe that JROTC is greatly contributing to this and really guiding us as students in the right direction. Even if our sights are set on something other than the military after graduating high school‚ JROTC looks great on a college application. Not

Instability of Characters Henry James’ argues that a character is only as interesting as their responses to a particular situation‚ can be supported by using any written works that a student may encounter‚ given that the story has at least one character. I intend to prove that the instability of the main characters in each story will ultimately be their downfall. The story “To Build a Fire” by Jack London is about a man struggle with nature and his inability to trust his human instinct‚ and In

My favorite emperor of ancient Rome is Vespasian‚ who reigned during 69-79 A.D. After the reign of Nero (51-69 A.D.) the Roman Empire faced an uncertain future.

Better to be Feared or Loved? In The Prince‚ Niccolò Machiavelli goes into depth about how it is better to be feared than loved. He states that “Well‚ one would like to be both; but it’s difficult for one person to be both feared and loved‚ and when a choice has to be made it is safer to be feared.” I disagree with Machiavelli that it is better to be feared than to be loved. Being feared eventually wears off while being loved is always a feeling that will be there. There are many reasons why
