An analysis of “In the Waiting Room” from Elizabeth Bishop There are few poets in 20th century‚ who portrayed their life in their poems as prolifically and thoroughly detailed as Elizabeth Bishop. Nevertheless‚ she became a prominent figure only in the end of the 20th century‚ and would be acknowledged by many critics as one of the greatest American poets just after her death. Her poetry would certainly be “placed” in the era of many categories such as postmodernism‚ post colonialism and so on.

For example in a Nike statement regarding the working conditions in El Salvador‚ Nike says that their constant goal always used to be to improve the safety at the working place and the indoor

watching the documentary “Waiting for ‘Superman‚” I came to the conclusion that the home and neighborhood environment are critical factors in a child’s education and overall wellbeing. For example‚ when we examine the home environment of Anthony‚ Daisy‚ Francisco‚ and Bianca‚ we can see that most of these children live in low-income neighborhoods‚ and that their parents or legal guardians sometimes have to work two jobs to sustain their family. This constant struggle also has an effect on the child’s

He is seen to be stepping up in the absence of his parent who are usually too busy arguing to focus on the children‚ this is the
