I believe the main theme in "Of This Time‚ Of That Place"‚ by Lionel Trilling‚ is the writing and understanding of literature by modern students‚ and how it differs from those by past old school’ strategies.

In it‚ Woolley condemns Howe’s works‚ compared to those of Thomas Wormser‚ claiming Howe’s works were "insulting" and written with "precious subjectivism" (262)

As a German after World War I‚ George Grosz created “A Victim of Society.” This Dada painting acts as a reaction to the Great War through the representation of the destruction of man.

Why organisations need to change Change management is relevant as though the research finds that change is taking place at an ever-increasing pace‚ the evidence suggests that most change initiatives fail. For example‚ recent CIPD research suggested that less than 60% of re-organisations met their stated objectives which are usually bottom line improvement.

these violent practices greatly endanger the mother as well; it’s shocking that a woman would harm herself like that for an abortion. I’m not detailing this because I think pregnant Filipinas should have it cushy like we do in the States. No way! I believe just the opposite: The Unites States needs to outlaw abortion‚ now. I’m amazed at how desperate we are‚ as a civilization‚ to kill unborn babies and end inconvenient pregnancies. It is stunning that the world feels so entitled to its desires

A main characteristic and cause of immaturity is the overuse and dependence on imagination. This is displayed in children but also in Toby Wolff’s memoir This Boy’s Life. Toby frequently uses his imagination as both an escape and a shield from the harsh reality of his own current status. As a child‚ Toby would utilize his creativity to picture himself living a successful lifestyle instead of the poverty he was raised in. Even as he grew older‚ Toby would never be able to see himself anyway other
