And I haven’t mentioned all pets. Oh‚ there are many families with

    The Art A Well-Made Doll’s House: The Influence of Eugene Scribe on the Art of Henrik Ibsen Posted by Jennine Lanouette on Sunday‚ December 24th‚ 2000 A famous writer once said‚ “Because someone does a thing first‚ doesn’t mean they will do it best‚” and the history of drama certainly has done its part to bear this out. Playwrights who boldly introduce new dramatic forms (Seneca‚ for example) have often left to those who came later the job of raising their innovations to the level of art (as

I cannot justify that for others because while reading this passage‚ I learned that some families are not as fortunate as my family and I. With that thought there two families I read about in the passage
