Oscar Wilde wrote a play called “The Importance of Being Earnest” and it was first performed in 1895. The play is about the characters that have different identities and do not always tell the truth. Since‚ the play has been released there have been many film remakes of Oscar Wilde’s play. The one that I decided to compare it to was the 2002 version that was directed by Oliver Parker. Parker keeps the meaning‚ tone‚ structure‚ text‚ and theme the same compared to the play. Parker expands‚ energizes

scholarship actually is. All of you today that are being inducted into the National Honor Society should consider yourself scholars. A scholar‚ by definition‚ is a distinguished academic or one who has an aptitude for study. There is an important difference between being a scholar and simply being a student – scholars care quite a bit more.

Banning of school uniforms Let’s all take a moment and imagine that you have to wake up early in the morning and you have to go to school.

Importance of Being Earnest Act 1 Characters immediately establish the tone and social context of the play. References to “Lady Bracknell”‚ “Mr Moncrieff’s manservant” and the “governess” indicate that play involves wealthy upper class. The characters are of course constructs – Wilde uses them merely as mouth pieces to express/parody value judgements about morality and Victorian ideals of duty and virtue. Premise of the play is creation of a paradox – explores inability/impossibility of being

over a medium to long-term period. Many schools administer teacher-built examinations as well as standardised examinations such as those administered by The Malawi National Examinations Board. However‚ there is debate among educators as to the importance of examinations to education.

debate about whether public schools should require their students to wear uniforms. This policy should be implemented‚ because uniforms take importance away from materialism‚ and encourage students to focus on their work. Many supporters believe that the students will behave how they are dressed. If they are dressed in a tailored manner‚ then the students will act accordingly. Uniforms also encourage unity‚ take importance away from differences‚ and make schools better places in which to learn. Dress

Is Abortion wrong or right? No one really knows that if it’s right or wrong. Abortion is the removal of foetus from the womb before it can survive. If you did have an abortion‚ you would be killing a child even before it would start its childhood. Around 42 million abortions performed every year worldwide.
