Space travel, science and technology, parallel universe and time travel are some of the aspects that authors incorporate in science fiction films (Seed, 11). The essence of this genre is to explore the possible consequences of innovations that are scientific in nature. In most cases, they use science fiction ...

Analyzing Stephen Crane’s prose style.

The above paragraph provides a deep insight into the naturalist writing style of the author, Stephen Crane (Colvert, 35). The first sentence mentions ‘None of them knew the color of the sky’. This displays an uncertain perspective in the forefront but if delved deeply displays ontology of corrected aesthetic reply. This is a figurative speech and the author on one hand admits that people do not know the ‘color of the sky’ and on the other hand mentions that people know the ‘colors of the sea’. The prose here emphasizes on the ‘colors of the sea’. It speaks about agency, integrity, ...

In Fritz Leiber's "The Winter Files," Heinie uses his imagination to picture himself in outer space, flying a rocketship. At the beginning of the story, we see Heinie, in his homemade wooden box and bowl-like helmet, making that very much real. However, as soon as Heinie says he's "going to take a trip" in his spaceship, the Man in the Black Flannel Suit enters, clearly a figure of the imagination due to his movements, and the fact that he does not have a name. He is Gott's fantasy, while flying in space is Heinie's. The fact that all the imaginative characters ...

American history has had a number of poets who have had an impact on the direction the course of poetry has taken. Most significant contributions were done by Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman in the last century. This was the period referred to as the Conflict and Celebration era. Their style of writing poetry was different from how people used to write before. They abandoned the traditional style to begin a much more modern style in the expression of American ideas in a unique way. There are slight differences as well as similarities in the two poets’ works that warrant our discussion.

The International Space Station, sometimes called the ISS for short, was first launched in 1998 (European Space Agency, 1999). Although this does not seem to be very long ago, it was seventeen years ago—almost before cell phone technology really took off around the world. As a result, the technology that was available in 1998 was very different from the technology that is available today; thus, there are many things on the International Space Station that have been upgraded or replaced since the International Space Station was first built in 1998 (European Space Agency, 2015). The ISS is indeed a marvel ...

Religions have been a part of every nation’s history and tradition since the start of civilizations. They have played key roles in creating tradition and belief, even influencing the creation of suitable government and laws for people to follow. These religions try to satisfy the question of the existence of life, the idea of what is God and the concept of spirituality and human responsibility. While some of them have considered that there is only one God or a Supreme Being that watches the existence of man and the presence of life and death, they still differ in understanding the ...

Walt Whitman published A Noiseless Patient Spider (778) in 1891 and uses vivid imagery in every line to depict the story of a spider the author sees. This paper will explore the poem line by line to discuss how Whitman uses imagery and metaphor to convey deeper meaning.
In line one, Whitman begins his use of imagery as he describes the spider as “noiseless” and “patient” (1). These words seem to be used to establish a somewhat somber tone, as the spider has no noise, which in the context of the entire poem, seems to mean the spider has no ...

The Cloud for Digital Photography

CONVENTIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY: STORAGE & MANAGEMENT ISSUES
The advent of photography in late 1830s (Roosa, n.d.) has mandated later introduction and development of memory storage methods. The capacity for cameras to preserve in photographs personal and collective memories has made permanency a more urgent issue as photographs became household collectibles. Moreover, as development methods improved, older photographs (developed using outdated methods) required more maintenance during storage, particularly photographs produced by acetate negatives, chromogenic color film, polyester film and instant color print processes (Roosa). The deterioration of photographs by poor environmental storage conditions, poor storage enclosures, inadequate handling and shelving conditions, and ...

Shakespeare called death “the undiscovered country.” Although death remains the biggest mystery of life, perhaps a bigger mystery is suggested in the very last paragraph of Truman Capote’s 1966 masterpiece, In Cold Blood: A True Account of a Multiple Murder and Its Consequences. The biggest mystery is that life continues to go as usual even though such a terrible event happened – the brutal and senseless murder of a mother, father, son and daughter in the Kansas heartland that made headlines in 1959.
The final paragraph begins with the word “And”. As most high school English teachers drill into their students, one ...

Darwin’s ideas tend to focus on the end product and not on the process that leads to the existence of the end product. The theory was first introduced by Darwin in the 1850’s ...

Throughout Sappho’s poetry, one can hear a vibrant, yet somewhat melancholic voice that brings out sentiments of love and affection correlated with powerful natural imagery. The verses reflect a certain communion between love, reflection, natural symbolism and the act of communicating with the gods.

At the same time, Sappho’s verses are sensual and daring – no bashful tone resides in her expression of true and powerful emotions. Moreover, a nice feeling of intimacy is established between the ...
