Shakespearean sonnet. One writer who was able to accomplish this feat was Robert Frost.

Novel Response #1 A novel that i have studied is called ’A Walk To Remember’ by Nicholas Spark. I liked this novel because of the characters‚ the plot and the message "Love conquers all."

British Literature Hinkley 8 Dec. 2012 Personal Response Jane Austen’s novel‚ Pride and Prejudice‚ is a great representation of how life in the 1800s would have been. Placement in society played a major role and most of her characters only did what society permitted them to do.

Lesson 1-Personal Response Agamemnon I believe that Agamemnon is a protagonist character with selfish intentions in the play‚ Agamemnon. Although‚ he does make a few errors in his period of ruling. Overall‚ I believe he is a hubris person as he holds great pride in himself‚ his actions and his decisions. I believe that his intentions of his actions are only meant for his own benefit and that he believes no one else’s value should be more than his value. He has very little effect but‚ a very important

Title: The Catcher in the Rye Author: J.D. Salinger Text type: Extended written text – novel In the novel The Catcher in the Rye‚ written by J.D. Salinger‚ I found the idea of self-isolation from human relationships that was portrayed through the protagonist Holden Caulfield very interesting.
