story of two young children of feuding families. Their famous tragic ends have raised many questions among readers‚ but the biggest question is most likely who is to blame. I believe that the ends of Romeo and Juliet were the faults of Romeo‚ Friar Lawrence‚ and the society’s way of life. . Although it seems unfair to blame the victim‚ I blame Romeo for his part in his own and Juliet’s death. To start of‚ he goes to the Capulet party with a bunch of his friends‚ even though it’s very clear to Romeo

Opposition of The Vietnam War The Vietnam war: deadly‚ fatal‚ and unsuccessful. The United State’s involvement in the Vietnam War was one of the most irreconcilable mistakes in history. The vast devastation of the war was magnified by the amount of money wasted‚ the lack of public support‚ and also the foreign warfare. By intervening in the war‚ the United States lost more than gained and remained lacking in many aspects even after the war was over. The art of the Vietnamese warfare was extremely

Intro British citizens alone would not have won the War of 1812 but key parts in their victory were their allies with the Natives and the Canadians and those numbers helped beat the Americans‚ their brilliant strategy for fighting the war‚ whereas America did the exact opposite and then they were defeated‚ and America’s extremely poor leadership with General Hull and his unacceptable and disgraceful cowardice. Argument #1 Britain’s numbers alone would not suffice if their army wanted any hope

Since the years of the ancient Greeks such as the Achaeans and the Trojans‚ there have been many changes‚ developments‚ and inventions. It is clear that we as a nation have transformed into a more modern world through our rapidly progressing technology‚ but have we really changed through our behaviors? The ancient Greeks were big on two things: power‚ and respect. I believe the Greeks set an example for today’s world‚ and that we as a country use the same motives that the ancient Greeks had during

“Whenever I hear someone arguing for slavery‚ I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.” Our sixteenth president‚ Abraham Lincoln‚ said this.

On Euripides and War: An Historical Analysis of Hecuba‚ Trojan Women‚ and Iphegenia at Aulis History is written. It did not happen. What did happen can only be described and recorded. Of the records that exist today society judges which are "fact‚" which are and which are "fictional." One striking feature that all records share is a preoccupation with war.

written by William Shakespeare and published in 1597. It is a drama about the death of a young couple who commit suicide. Their families hate each other so it is hard for them to see each other and be together. I believe that fate and the long lasting family feud caused the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Fate and the family feud are what should be blamed for Romeo and Juliet’s deaths. Some people blame Tybalt because he started the fight that got Romeo banished in the first place. They are wrong because

Perikles starts off by stating that their form of government‚ a Democracy‚ is different from their neighboring countries and that it is “…being administered in the interest not of the few but the many‚” (92)
