... the narrative's premise that nurturing, protective, and even self-sacrificing behaviours are components of maternal desire essential to females. The narrative ultimately seeks to emphasise that maternal desire is a quality essential not only to females but also to humanity, and is integral to human survival.

Together, these two discourses create a dichotomy of good and evil, with the female body as the site of their conflict. In constructing 'good' maternal desire as essential to ...

... to know each other or on the other hand engage in a type of relationship just to satisfy each others desires they act like they have known each other for a long time and that they can’t live one without the other. At the start of the play we see that Romeo is in love with Roseline and that he only talks about her but when he meets Juliet at the party he totally forgets Roseline and falls in love with Juliet.

... work on yellow legal pads" (pg. 9) where she let her ideas flow. The content of those legal pads resulted in a bestseller, of which contained Maya Angelou’s flowing style, the use of dialect, settings, and characterization.

It was only through the dialect that the reader was able to understand Billy’s character. As in Billy Budd, Angelou uses dialect in her writings to enhance the tone of the book. "That’s right. You know, the children was readin’ me something thâ ...

... girdle furled", "lie before us like a land of dreams" and "moon-blanched land".

The poem begins two-part stanzas, the first which is promising and hopeful; the second replaces optimism wi ...

... of the two cultures, especially the contrasting dinner etiquette's to explain these differences. The cultural difference that is the easiest to see is dinner etiquette. I was upset when I first came to Canada about how the people kept taking my food because they were too lazy to go and get some more. After three years, I am taking food from the people in the dining hall, which means I have changed my way of thinking in this respect. The reason that I was upset is that Asian people have a stereotype about food. It is just like this. If I have taken this, this is mine, and nobody can touch this. This may sou ...

... to be put on a pedestal that very few can reach. Portia is one of Shakespeare's great heroines, whose beauty, lively intelligence, quick wit, and high moral seriousness have blossomed in a society of wealth and freedom. She is known throughout the world for her beauty and virtue, and she is able to handle any situation with her sharp wit. In many of Shakespeare's plays, he creates female characters that are presented to be clearly inferior to men. The one female, Shakespearean character that is most like Portia would be Beatrice, from Much Ado about Nothing. Both of the women are known for their wit and intel ...

... to fear religion and in some instances he fears horses. He becomes belligerent on the beach when the man lets Alan ride the horse with him. He also becomes belligerent when Alan’s mother tries to include religion in Alan’s life. It seems his father has strong emotional reactions to anything he can’t control or understand. Alan sensed that reaction and because of it he turned a horse into a god. It’s almost like Alan was drawn to anything his father did not like because he did not want to be like his father. Allen is driven to all his father hates, such as television and religion. When A ...

... young man about whom Shakespeare is writing. Line two of this poem states "Thou art more lovely and more temperate." Temperate is used as a synonym for moderate by the author. In line two the speaker is describing the man as more lovely and more moderate than a summer’s day. This emphasizes the man’s beauty and how the man is viewed by the speaker. Line three, "Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May," tells why the man’s beauty is greater than that of a summer’s day. Shakespeare uses "rough winds" to symbolize imperfections. The speaker is implying that there are no impe ...

... aspects, but also a gift which conceals an immense potential hazard if not used correctly. Humans have within their grasp the ability and technology to create life. Many believe that this knowledge will lead to further degradation of the human spirit. But others, like Prometheus and his gift of fire, believe that new technology is the key to a new, and better, reality. Genetic engineering and, specifically, cloning, of human life has become an issue of extreme gravity in the age of technology where anything may be dreamed and many things are possible. Cloning is a reality in today\'s world: Not long ago ...
