For my essay‚ I want to compare A.C.Doyle’s: ’The Adventure of the Sussex vampire’ with M.E. Braddon’s: ’Good Lady Ducayne’.

It is a detective story‚ where the protagonist finds

categorized in three different fan groups. One type of fan is a fair weather fan. They jump from team to team‚ most likely to which one is winning. Another type of fan is a part-time fan. They really do not care much about any one team‚ and just watch whoever is on. Finally‚ there is what I like to call die-hard fans. These fans never miss a game‚ and route for their team in good and bad times. The first type of fan that I mentioned is a fair weather fan. These are the kinds of fans that never really jump

In the early 1900’s the man was seen as the intellectual individual who takes care of their wife and family‚ who arrives home with the money and who was the supplier.

Women exercised their right to vote for the President their first time in November of 1920 The First Women’s Right Video is the one that stood out to me from the very beginning. It amazes me how what these women did for not just themselves‚ the women of that time‚ but for also the women of today. They were head strong and very determined‚ had they not be‚ would we as women have rights today? Elizabeth Stanton and Susan Anthony were two of the women that fought for our rights as women. Had

Women in the 1800’s were very segregated from men compared to women today. Many of us don’t stop to think about all the hard work and bravery women put in for us to have the privileges we have in our modern society.

Women were unable to vote; just men. Also‚ women weren’t allowed to choose laws. It’s unfair that men were the only ones

Whilst both poems share a sense of loss‚ in ‘Poppies’‚ it is more a fear of the possibility of loss rather than
