It is known as “Americas past time.” Baseball is the national sport of the USA. The first baseball game played was in New York on June 19‚ 1845. And is played by thousands of people throughout the years. Much like any sport‚ it has changed with time. The first rulebook of baseball was issued in 1877. And it has been changing every year

and justice. Poets like Langston Hughes‚ Countee Cullen‚ and Claude McKay wrote many poems that spoke on equality in society. African Americans felt betrayed after the civil war. They had given their lives and after the war nothing had changed (Cartwright‚ “The Harlem Renaissance”). They were still not treated equal and didn’t get paid as much as any other worker. During the 1920’s they started a cultural and racial movement in Harlem‚ New York called the Harlem Renaissance. The Harlem Renaissance

The American Dream To people all around the world‚ America is known as the land of endless opportunity. However‚ what society does not know about America is that it enables a greedy‚ corrupt and overachieving way of life. Both F.Scott Fitzgerald and Arthur Miller saw this side of America when writing The Great Gatsby and Death of a Salesman‚ respectively. Both men expose an underhanded America that is driven by the pursuit of power‚ happiness and wealth‚ as well as disloyalty‚ and misrepresentation

Picasso. Little had I known‚ the magnificence of the city’s diversity‚ captured me so thoroughly‚ I had walked face-first into a street artist! The young girl laughed and brushed herself off‚ as I apologised profusely. She introduced herself as May Cartwright‚ a Chicago native and offered to take me around the city.

The fire was called “The Great Manhattan Fire” of 1845. The volunteer fire brigade had to put it out before it spread and engulfed the whole city. Felix somehow gets entangled

There is a quote by Helen Keller which states: “When one door of happiness closes‚ another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.” I feel that this epitomises what Larkin was portraying in the poem ’Dockery and Son’; a feeling of regret and a wondering of what the ’other door’ might hold.
