In this essay I am going to determine whether the London riots were caused by government cuts or other factors. The London riots started in August 2011 in Tottenham‚ after the shooting of a black man called Mark Duggan. What was meant to be a peaceful protest outside the police station for justice has since evolved into disorder and riotous violence‚ caused mostly by foolish teenagers and young adults. The riots spread rapidly from London to Leeds‚ Bristol‚ Liverpool and Birmingham. There are many

“London” by William Blake has a lot of symbolism but it also has theme and tone. The tone of this poem it could be a sad and angry tone but also biblical. The speaker has a very negative view about London but is also offering a prophesy of the terrible consequences that this city is going to experience unless changes are made. In other words Blake wants to let the reader know that death is all over London. There is no doubt that this poem has a lot of tone and attitude because in the lines "the Chimney-sweeper’s

A Brave New World vs. 1984 There are many similarities and differences between Aldous Huxley’s A Brave New World and George Orwell’s 1984. With my analysis of both novels‚ I have come to the conclusion that they are not as alike as you would believe. A Brave New World is a novel about the struggle of John‚ the savage‚’ who rejects the society of the Brave New World when and discovers that he could never be truly happy there. 1984 is a novel about Winston‚ who finds forbidden love

New Criticism vs. Reader-Response A piece of work can be evaluated in plenty of ways. Critique methods such as Reader-Response‚ Deconstructive Criticism‚ New Criticism‚ and many others act as examples of literary evaluations. All of the critique methods share similarities‚ but differ in other ways. Reader-Response and New Criticism‚ for example‚ share characteristics but they are also two very opposing things.

sometimes that change is dramatic it changes how you think‚ how you act. Buck happened to go through one of these drastic changes‚ but it changed him for the better and not worse at least that’s how he sees it.

The River is a song by Jordan Feliz‚ and it one of my favorite and most influential songs. I first heard it during a Nationals game as Daniel Murphy’s walk-up song. The lyrics are about going to a river to pray‚ repent‚ and become born again. As an atheist‚ I try to avoid being acquainted with religious ideas or opinions‚ as I believe that religion has become a sensitive issue in many cases nowadays. But after listening to the song a few times‚ I started to love it‚ and it soon had a great impact

1984 Vs. Brave New World Imagine a world in which people are produced in factories‚ a world lost of all freedom and individuality‚ a world where people are exiled or “disappear” for breaking the mold. Both 1984 by George Orwell and Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World are startling depictions of such a society. Although these novels are of fictional worlds‚ control of the future may be subtly evolving and becoming far worse than Huxley or Orwell could ever have imagined

In February 2009‚ 12 year old Jordan Brown was the main suspect in his own stepmother’s murder. She was found with a gunshot wound to the head‚ she was eight months pregnant. Although it was very rare to charge someone so young as an adult‚ but the Pennsylvania prosecutor left them little choice‚ it is also very rare for a 12 year old boy to commit a violent crime such as he did. Jordan’s defense argues that there were no true witnesses to his crime‚ no actual proof‚ but they also say the 4 year
