    The origins of violence in individuals seem to remain a mystery for psychologists‚ biologists‚ and society as a while; and the question “are people hardwired to kill/be violent” arises. The BBC Documentary‚ ‘5 Steps to Tyranny’‚ shows us how human nature allows us to descend into a domineering society when we are provoked to act according to certain circumstances.

On the surface‚ Shakespeare’s "Sonnet 129" is

    Ethan A. Proffitt ENG 243 Phil Ferguson 11-17-14 Sonnet 130 William Shakespeare’s 130th sonnet is perhaps the most intriguing and conceptually bizarre. The majority of his sonnets on the subject of women detail how lovely and fair they are‚ or how he is unable to serenade them (often because of a superior man); this particular example is an utter contradiction to his other female-based works. The central idea of the speaker here is to describe the appearance of his love interest to someone else‚
