The Last Supper has been and will be one of the most talked about works of Leonardo Da Vinci ’s work of art. The work of art was started in 1495 and was completed in 1498; it contained the event depicted in the bible as the final days when Jesus announced that he would be betrayed by one of his twelve disciples." Leonardo had chosen to depict the moment when Jesus says‚ "One of you will betray me".1 The painting is located in the dining hall of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan Italy. The painting

relationships presented in ‘My Last Duchess’ and one other poem of your choice? Firstly‚ the presentation in ‘My Last Duchess’ is a relationship that has no equality between the Duke and the Duchess.

The Duke is objectifying the Duchess and the word after is ‘last’ this suggests that the Duke

Bus HomeThe Last Bus Home Rain was always a sign of tragedy‚ something bad didn’t happen every time it rained‚ no‚ but everything bad that happened to me in my life had happened on a day when it was pouring. Alight sprinkle never phased me‚ it was also raining that day. As I woke up in my warm & cosy queen sized bed‚ I remember feeling a cold shiver going up my back through my pink silky pyjamas. It was a typical December morning‚ it wasn’t snowing yet but it was cold and foggy. As I got ready

It is physical in the way Li Cunxin had to work hard to be a professional ballet dancer and it is also mental as it is a road to self-discovery. The autobiography is also extremely inspirational and inscribed in first person‚ therefore this allows the reader to see the personal journey of Li. I believe this text also relates to Shakespeare’s

Thomas Mullen brings the setting of his first novel in a mill town called Commonwealth in the
