Dred Scott was an enslaved African American man in the United States who unsuccessfully sued for his freedom and that of his wife and their two daughters in the Dred Scott v. Sanford case of 1857‚ popularly known as the "Dred Scott Decision."

Tension in Poetry John Orley Allen Tate Many poems that we ordinarily think of as good poetry -- and some‚ besides‚ that we neglect -- have certain common features that will allow us to invent‚ for their sharper apprehension‚ the name of a single quality. I shall call that quality tension. In abstract language‚ a poetic work has distinct quality as the ultimate effect of the whole‚ and that whole is the “result” of a configuration of meaning which it is the duty of the critic to examine and

Throughout Shakespeare’s Macbeth‚ we get the privilege to meet Lady Macbeth who plays a pivotal role in most of the events that occur in the play. We meet her and not think much of her but by the end of the play‚ we dislike her completely. During the play we see her marriage fall apart‚ her mental health deteriorate and whatever good she had in her disappear. We are first introduced to Lady Macbeth at the beginning of Act 1 scene 5 when she is reading a letter sent to her by her husband Macbeth

Surface Tension My problem was to find out how to test or measure surface tension. I think the reason of some of the force in surface tension is cohesion and gravity. Surface Tension is the condition existing at the free surface of a liquid‚ resembling the properties of an elastic skin under tension. The tension is the result of intermolecular forces exerting an unbalanced inward pull on the individual surface molecules; this is reflected in the considerable curvature at those edges where the

Act III we start to see changes in both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. In the beginning Lady Macbeth had been the brains behind the death of King Duncan. Macbeth was just a puppet‚ getting played by the witches’ prophecies‚ his wife‚ and his own thoughts. We notice how everything is changing among the two. Even though mentally they seem both crazed and distort‚ but there’s some changes that are very different in them. Early in the play Macbeth is known as a loyal warrior. He was the King’s noble soldier

Though not on display on his own‚ when Lord Macbeth interacts with his wife‚ Lady Macbeth‚ we see that he does have a conscience. Yet evidence for her is hard to find. Lady Macbeth is psychotic. Everything she does seems to be evidence to the fact that she suffers from a mental illness. She is manipulative in her own

Caliban” and “wholly different from the representation of witches in the contemporary writers‚ and yet presented a sufficient external resemblance to the creatures of vulgar prejudice‚ to act immediately on the audience.” It is significant that the play begins with a brief meeting of the three witches. A very short prologue is long enough to awaken curiosity‚ but not to satisfy it. We have come in Act I‚ Scene I ‚where at the end of the witches’ meeting‚ just as they are arranging their next appointment

more than likely‚ the dog did indeed descend from the gray wolf. Although the oldest fossils of a domesticated dog are from a 14‚000-year-old dog grave‚ DNA evidence suggests dogs diverged from wolves much earlier than that (with estimates ranging from 15‚000 to more than 100‚000 years ago) [source: Wade]. Regardless‚ historians agree that humans domesticated dogs before any other animal -- making dog man’s oldest friend‚ if not his best. Scientists can only guess how dogs and humans first became
