The Lord of the flies written by William Golding and Inferno by Dante Alighieri are allegorical books that expound common themes and similitude in the usage of styles. In particular, the common theme that resonates in these two books is the nature of man and the evil that men harbor in their hearts. In essence, the two novels delve to answer the question as to who is the real enemy of humankind. Though the two authors dexterously use different stylistic devices to answer the question, the convergence is that man himself is the worst enemy to each other. According ...

Fostering Successful Emergency Planning

Fostering a successful emergency plan ensures that the plan focuses on intensive training and exercises. In doing so, the plan reinforces emergency preparedness for a number of potential emergencies. The exercises that emergency planners can create to test their plans include trial or testing through prototypes and operations, rehearsing the plan and explaining the plan to others and memorizing it (‎Perry, 2016). The best way to access emergencies is through trials. I believe this is true because when accessing emergency systems using trial, one bases the trial on socialist systems. The use of socialist systems in responding to emergencies ...

Until late in the civil war, the Confederate blockade-runners were highly effective in sustaining the Confederacy. As had been orchestrated by the confederate, the blockade-runners served the interests of the Confederacy as they serviced the southern economy. One of the key reasons the Confederate blockade-runners were able to serve the interests of the Confederacy for the better part of the civil war undetected was that they were used in the guise of individual ships as opposed to confederate ships.

The musical Hamilton has been critically acclaimed by critics and fans alike. The work tells the story of Alexander Hamilton, one of the most important people in the early history of the United States. However, what makes this musical truly unique is Lin-Manuel Miranda, the star, writer, and composer incorporates modern hip-hop music style into the musical genre, something that had not been done as successfully. Rather than just classical musical numbers or dialogue, this production uses rap and lyrical composition very effectively. Hamilton employs hip-hop music throughout because it is able to bring in groups that do not ...

In that case, if the word Veneti has the Indo-European origin, it means “famous”, but if we consider this word with the pre-Indo origin, it means “foreigners” or “new comers” (nuovi venuti). Perhaps the name of the Veneto is from the word “new comers”. In this case, ...

The concept of the natural state of man is discussed in detail by both Jonathan Swift and Daniel Defoe in their books Gulliver’s Travels and Robinson Crusoe respectively. While Swift takes the reader through his opinion of the natural state of man by describing the journey of Gulliver, Defoe does this through an evaluation of the life of Crusoe. However, despite appearing to focus on the same topic, the two hold divergent views on the same. Defoe appears to make a more compelling argument as compared to Swift in Gulliver’s travel because he appears to be more ...

All Sciences, whether Physical, Social, or a combination of the two (like Anthropology), are based on hypotheses and theories. Some of the unlikeliest scientific theories have arisen from hypotheses that were considered insane at one point. In the world of Anthropology, the situation is no different.

Governments were so thrown apart by statements like this that people were decried as heretics, beheaded or sent into exile. These scientists went against what was mainstream thinking ...

Generation gap has been a widely discussed topic because of its significant impact on work, family and social relationships.

The Tempest by William Shakespeare is interestingly simple yet complex in its own way. It has the complete recipe that categorizes it as a true Shakesperian play written during his time, with its magical theme as opposed to what ‘s real, the conflict between a father and his dhild, or between the old and the new, and the most apparent struggle for power. The play, with its constant reference to power and culture, appears to be an elucidation on European colonization. There were so much indication in the text, such as the arrival of Prospero and his daughter, Miranda, ...

Ever since the emergence of theatre as a form of art, it has remained on of the most popular and expressive genres of art that continue to entertain as much as it informs. This is perhaps because for many years, theatre has been used as a social mirror of sorts; one that allows the audience as well as the performers to view the society in which they live for what it is. The ability of playwrights to craft magnificent and compelling theatrical pieces that highlight the plight of the societies in which they live arguably makes playwrights one of ...

The respective narratives would lead to a better comprehension of the intricate influences and experiences that finally pave the way of the emancipation of the characters of Edna and Nora from the shackles of patriarchy and subjugation.

Major disagreements persist in the field, particularly when the evolutionary origin and physical modification of primates are the subject matter of discussion.
