somehow. The most practical way for them to do so is by visualizing imaginary creatures and ideas. A child discusses his encounter with the beast and the boys’ explanation was‚ “He was dreaming… he must’ve had a nightmare.” (Doc B) Again‚ the children express their fears through nightmares and they become imaginary figures that seem real to them.

I agree that the use of sleep in Macbeth supports this because sleep is a major aspect of the play. When Macbeth murders Duncan while he is asleep‚ he thinks he hears a voice say “Macbeth does murder sleep”. Macbeth then suffers from terrible nightmares and delusions which are the reason for his fear and anxiety. Sleep in Macbeth symbolizes innocence‚ purity‚ and peace of mind and in killing Duncan Macbeth actually does murder sleep. Shakespeare brings in three different disorders of sleep‚ which

“HP Lovecraft”‚ famed for his pioneering work in the genre of horror literature‚ was also a poet in addition to being a storyteller. Among all of his poetry‚ the one poem I find the most potent is Nemesis. This poem‚ it tells a harrowing tale of the titular nemesis. However‚ it is certainly not what most would first assume it to be. The nemesis is not a person‚ group‚ or thing‚ but rather the storyteller himself and his perspective on past experiences. The poem is a tale of how one man’s envy turns

“Basically‚ they do in different ways what Polanski does in Chinatown: set the elements of a conventional popular genre in an altered context”. Although it doesn’t follow every guideline for a classic film noir film Chinatown is an example of the genre. The film simply takes place in modern times (when it came out). The 1970’s even provides a similar backdrop for the film to that of 1940’s film noir‚ a major war affecting the country. The film itself contains many key characteristics that noir will

record‚ Welcome To My Nightmare (1975) entitled Welcome 2 My Nightmare back in 2011‚ my hope was that it be followed up by a tour. One that also included the original surviving members of Alice Cooper (1969-1974). Reason being because they were including on the album. Three different tracks. But that never happened. Instead Alice toured like he’s done since separating from the original members of Alice Cooper‚ with his own band. In my opinion‚ the three strongest tracks on Nightmare 2‚ was the ones written

After experiencing a traumatic event‚ the mind has been known to horde away the details and memories and then send them back at unexpected times and places‚ sometimes after years have passed. It does so in a haunting way that makes the recall just as disturbing as the original event. It is easy to understand how Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can affect a person’s life. For example: Edgar Allen Poe’s Gothic style of writing about the darker side of romantic imagination‚ the supernatural

The novel begins with quote that states “My nightmare started like this. I was standing on deserted street in some little beach town. It was the middle of the night. A storm was blowing. Wind and rain ripped at the palm trees along the sidewalk. Pink and yellow stucco buildings lined the street‚ their windows boarded up.” The mere quote was quite intriguing and will truly draw you towards curiosity. The succeeding pages of the book will entice towards an interesting continuation of a 14-year old

What is a dream? Some dictionaries say‚ “A series of thoughts‚ images‚ and emotions that occur during sleep” (Webster’s). Other references say dreams are “a communication of body‚ mind‚ and spirit in a symbolic communicative environmental state of being” (Lukeman 61). Dreams have both a metaphysical and physical existence. The metaphysical aspect is the imagery in a dream and its relation to the subconscious. The physical aspect is the chemical reactions that occur within the brain during dreams
