These sculptures have been studied and admired countless times for they are both perfect examples of what these two timeless styles held. Seeing them today standing there just as they did thousands of years before is almost a miracle in its own right. Classical Greek art was just as it sounds classic‚ simple yet

How does Steinbeck present the character of Curley’s wife in Of Mice and Men? Steinbeck’s ‘Of Mice and Men’ is a poignant tale which tells of a number of disconnected‚ isolated characters. Curley’s wife epitomises the extreme loneliness of the human condition. Although she only makes a significant appearance three times in the novel‚ she plays an important part both in terms of plot development and in terms of furthering the readers’ understanding of the theme of loneliness and alienation.
