Summary and critical review of ‘To His Excellency General Washington’

Introduction
I do not think Phillis Wheatley should have written a letter to George Washington praising him for fighting for America’s freedom.

In the following analysis of the letter of introduction, and the subsequent poem, Phillis Wheatley comes across as a poet who was out of touch with her roots and ...

Abstract

Human resources are one of the most basic things that keep any organizations’ operations running. Without laborers, everything would be hardly possible.

More often than not, poor labor and relation development practices lead to significantly impaired productivity levels, which are some of the last things that any manager would want. Knowing the current best practices in the field of labor and relations development is therefore crucial both ...

Independence is the cornerstone of the accounting profession. Without it, any opinion rendered cannot be relied upon by outside parties. An auditor must not only be independent in fact but also in appearance. According to Hill and Booker (2007), both are studied to understand what independence is required in the profession but research evidence related to independence in fact requires far more effort as it involves information that is not always publicly available (as cited in Daniels and Booker, 2011, pp. 79).

However, at the very end of the novel, it becomes clear that only a person who profoundly cares about the state of humanity could have written a work that touches upon all these issues in such a satirical ...
