Slaves Of The White God
Number of words: 613 | Number of pages: 3.... presence in the New World.
During the 16th century, the Spaniards became the first of the colonial masters to introduce African slaves into the New World. From its origin in Hispaniola, African slavery spread throughout the rest of Latin America including Cuba, Peru, Puerto Rico, and Mexico. By the 16th and 17th centuries, Mexico and Peru had become the largest importers of slaves in Latin America. However, that dubious distinction is not indicative of a massive volume of slaves, since large-scale plantation labor was still in development. In actuality the estimated population of slaves in Mexico during the colon .....

Chaucer
Number of words: 735 | Number of pages: 3.... paid for their services, and their eyes cannot oversee the wealth that is due to them. The Doctor then is the same as a witch doctor now, with their appearances different, but their intentions and thoughts the same. Stereotypes are seen only in the imagination. And it is in the imagination from which a television evangelist is characteristically similar to Geoffrey ’s Summoner. The evangelist is a deceiver to many. He quotes scripture of Biblical content, to put forth an act or display that he might appear unto others as a "man of God." The Summoner is much the same. When he is drunks, he babbles relentlessly of common .....

All Quiet On The Western Front
Number of words: 341 | Number of pages: 2.... that everyone should experience. When the
boy got up to talk, he told everyone that it was horrible, and
his teacher went crazy. War films that are made now are
certainly anti-wars films (usually), but this film in particular
showed that war was a horrible, horrible thing. The way the
director decided to portray the war scenes suprised me. For the
time the film was made, I didn’t think films were that graphic,
but this one certainly was. The battle scenes and the effects
used were very well done, even for 1930. I think this film
should be shown in history class when learning about World War 1,
because it re .....

Petruchio And Kate
Number of words: 1160 | Number of pages: 5.... the roles switch and Katherina is submissive to every word of Petruchio and Bianca resists the commands of her new husband.
Kate’s first reaction to Petruchio, her “mad wooer”, is self-pity, and even her father feels that his treatment of her would “vex a saint”. He takes her away from the home she is used to, with servants and maids to wait on her hand and foot, to the country. There she is away from the luxurious town life and is cold, hungry and tired. She somewhat learns to watch her temper and obey Petruchio so that he will feed her so she can survive peacefully rather than miserably. I believe that his met .....

To Kill A Mockingbird - Injust
Number of words: 341 | Number of pages: 2.... is a good description of what he really was.
The third person to suffer injustice in the novel was Boo Radley. Many accusations were claimed about him even though they were untrue. Just because he didn't leave his house, people began to think something was wrong. Boo was a man who was misunderstood and shouldn't of suffered any injustice. Boo did not handle the injustice because he didn't know about it.
In conclusion, the person who deserves the deepest sympathy is Tom Robinson. He did nothing wrong but his crime was being nice to white people. This type of injustice is the worst because everyone puts up with it. Therefore, Att .....

Brutus Character Analysis
Number of words: 841 | Number of pages: 4.... quote says, Brutus would not allow Caesar to rise to power and then turn his back onto the people of Rome. After the assassination of Julius Caesar, Brutus talks to Antony about Caesar's death. "Our hearts you see not; they are pitiful; and pity to the general wrong of Rome..."(act 3, scene 1, ll.185-186). Brutus says that Antony cannot see their(members of the conspiracy) hearts, which are full of pity. Again, this shows how Brutus loved Caesar but cared for the life of Rome and its people more. This is the only reason Brutus would conspire against Caesar. For Brutus says to himself, "I know no personal cause to spurn at him...H .....

Tradgedy 2
Number of words: 1820 | Number of pages: 7.... not by weather fronts, but the fronts put up by the tragic heroes to portray themselves as worthy. From this storm of deception, out comes the evil and villainous nature of the reasonably good title characters. This is because even if they were fooling the populace they still doubted their own worthiness, due to the fact they, Oedipus, Macbeth and Gatsby, had not fooled themselves. Their relentless pursuit of perfection corrupted their otherwise good nature. Thus their removal from the position they held was ultimately necessary. It is tragic because they were good, good people and good leaders.
The first confident lead .....

camps during the holocaust. His family and him are persecuted for really no reason, as were the rest of the Jews at this time. All of the information presented were the many things I have learnt in classes, about World War II. An example is when the Nazis would tell people that they were taking them to the shower room. The people would all be stripped of their clothes and thrown in. The next moment, a lethal gas would start coming out of the walls, and kill them. The term “genocide” was also used in this book. I learnt about genocide and the definition is the mass killing of a whole group or .....
