The attack of "conscience" that King Richard suffers in Act 5‚ Scene 5 of Shakespeare’s Richard III (133-157) can be seen as the psychological climax of the drama‚ one that is critical to both Richard’s development as a character and the play’s ultimate success. Richard’s struggle to reconcile the many different roles he attempts to play into one unified self‚ reflected in the tone and composition of his speech‚ adds depth and humanity to his character; at the same time‚ his ultimate failure to maintain

At the beginning of the poem‚ Hughes lists all the people that were struggling and being oppressed at the time the poem was written. He points out the poor‚ the blacks that still bare the scares of slavery‚ the red man driven from his home‚ and the immigrant clutching to hope. He reconciles them with the opening plea by saying‚ “America will be!” This is saying that they still had hope. Hughes probably had different responses to his poem back in 1938. Poor blacks would have agreed and sympathized

In this essay‚ Richard Dyer takes a look into the ways race is handled by the media. For the most part‚ race is a term that’s only applied to non-white people. White people are not racially seen.

Langston Hughes’s‚ “Early Autumn‚” is an example of something that can happen in everyday life. The conflict in this story shows how one decision can result in a time of sadness. I believe the author uses the end of fall and the beginning of winter to show just how cold and empty the relationship is between the characters. It could represent that there was nothing to say‚ in the story it seemed like she was happier to see him than he was or maybe he was in shock. “The leaves fell slowly from

Therefore‚ Wright must have written it that way “not to inform‚ but to memorialize a place and a time” (Birkerts). Then he moves on to compare the poems first three lines to that of a painting‚ discussing the color composition and dimensions.
