Thomas Immel Summer Reading 16 August 2015 Masking Ones Identity from Others In the Greatest Star Wars movie of all time, The Revenge of the Sith, The Great Emperor Palpatine, who is the galactic ruler of the galaxy and also a famous political leader suddenly turned on the Jedi Council one day creating chaos in the galaxy. Living and thriving under the false name Palpatine, Darth Sidious, he slowly manipulated the public into voting him into the senator of Naboo then on to be the one of the highest ranking authorities, supreme Chancellor. Eventually he had led on to become the emperor of the entire galaxy. However Darth Sidious was a mastermind at mischief and he had planned out a scheme to not only restore the power of the Dark Side and …show more content…
Darth Sidious is the epitimy of evil and when reveals himself as a leader of the Sith Lord he creates a massive state of shock throughout the galaxy. Darth Sidious lacks every redeeming quality one can attain. Darth Sidious' plan to become the emperor of the galaxy and destroy the Jedi order was spiteful and misconceiving from the beginning. Thus leaving the idea that he never had any good in him ever. Since Darth Sidious was wearing a mask to conceal his identity it affects his life deeply. Darth Sidious may have had some good in him at one point in time, just like Anakin did. However if Darth Sidious were to ever have any good in him wearing the mask of evil and good at the same time would have an impact on his true conscience. Having an evil mask so powerful could have been the reason Darth Sidious was so horrible. The evil mask Sidious wore could have, over time, developed to be so strong that his good side was slowly severed. If this were to be true it would mean that one must not wear two mask, but one, because over time eventually there will only be one mask to wear and the outcome of the mask worn then may be completely different than one could ever had planed or

A person’s current life can be greatly influenced by past experiences, especially when those experiences involve heartbreak and tragedy. In the book Hotel On the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, Henry contends with the communication flaws with his father and his best friend Keiko who who was separated from him due to World war 2. His father’s racial bias towards Keiko and Japanese people in general affects Henry in a very profound way. Racial tension and victimization between two different cultures can have a great impact on family relations and love.
Both the Han and Roman empires had many corrupt government officials that helped lead to their decline. In the Roman empire, people began to fight to become the next emperor. This infighting led to 25 unnatural deaths of Roman emperors in a 50 year span. Each new ruler became more and more corrupt, and wanted to become emperor for the title, not to help a fragile empire re-strengthen itself into one of the greatest world powers in history. Similarly, in the final days of the Han empire, the court officials began to focus on their personal needs rather than those of the dwindling

The Jedi were the guardians of peace and justice in the Galactic Republic, and became the most famous of the various groups that relied on the Force for their power. So the Jedi wanted to destroy everything he has because Darth had captured princess Leia and wanted to destroy her
The bad things that happened to the Jedi order were the results of their millennia of non-virtuous acts. The Jedi, throughout their many years of power, committed almost every single non-virtue, and did many of them with the wrong views and with a harmful intent due to their arrogance. So Anakin was just an instrument of karma that actually cleansed the bad karma that the Jedi had built up. In that way, he fulfilled the prophecy, bringing balance to the force by balancing the karma of the Jedi. Therefore, the true blame for the destruction of the Jedi lies with the Jedi, not
His evil is manifested physically as well as spiritually. As his vengeance progresses, he grows uglier and more twisted as his outside starts to match his inside: “Now, there was something ugly and evil in his face” (87). His defining facial expression becomes a smile so malicious that “it seemed still to remain painted on the darkness” (107) and “conveyed secret and fearful meaning” (161). In addition, living with the object of his revenge allows him to exert his malignant influence constantly, to the point where other people can feel it.

Power makes Anakin change to an evil because Anakin does not control himself well after he owns the power and his ambition makes him to desire more power. Anakin is not the only one character which is known as a character who has been changed after they own the power, Macbeth from the novel Macbeth written by Shakespeare is another character similar like Anakin. Macbeth is known as a hero at the beginning of the novel, but througout the novel he changes to an evil because he knows he would
Anakin Skywalker’s journey in the galaxy made him my favorite character while watching the saga. Watching the prequel trilogy before the original trilogy, especially in episode one, had me rooting for Anakin. He was very kind and compassionate towards Qui-Gon Jinn and Padme Amidala who were strangers to him at the time. When Qui-Gon Jinn discovers Anakin’s extremely high midi-chlorians count, it is believed that Anakin is the Chosen One. Then Anakin is older in episodes two and three, it is evident that Anakin becomes power-hungry and controlling. He loves Padme very much and wants to prevent Padme’s childbirth death so he joins the dark side and pledges himself to Chancellor Palpatine’s teachings. At this part of the film, I did not know what to think. I continuously thought back on Anakin Skywalker as a young boy and wondering how this anger escalated so quickly. Throughout the original trilogy, Anakin Skywalker is known as Darth Vader. In episode six, Return of the Jedi, Darth Vader, who is perceived as the evilest being in the
All good, I'm a huge Starwars nerd who knows most of the feats and abilities of almost every force wielder. I've google the answer of who is the most powerful force wielder in the Starwars universe plenty of times in my life. And Darth Sideous has been shown to be the most powerful in the Starwars chronology every single
This world has seen many great leaders and emperors but two of them standout a little more than the others. Their names are Julius Caesar and Napoleon Bonaparte. Both men were highly respected and greatly feared. They also ran great empires that spanned over thousands of miles. They wanted to rule and conquer anything they could. They have many similarities and differences in the way they ruled and conquered. Their empires were so big that there came a time where they couldn’t control it and their reign came to an end. Julius Caesar and Napoleon Bonaparte have molded and shaped the way rulers and leaders should rule over
In addition, there are a lot of reasons why Hitler may have been a bad leader is because he didn't have a social life. He did not have the knowledge of how to grow up and have friends while doing so, it took away his chance of having social skills. Hitler had a few friends growing up but they didn't talk much and Hitlers was a quite child so that did not give him a lot of opportunities to find friends and have people to hang out with and have fun. Growing up Hitler was average when it came to money due to his father's income, but Hitler only got what he needed not what he wanted. His parents always bought him art supply's but that was it. He did not have any say in what was for dinner everything was what his father wanted. Hitler had a dog for around 4 months than he never saw it again and Hitler thinks that his dad killed him or sold him for money. That was important to Hitler because he did not have many friends and his dog was his only friend. That probably influenced the rebel against his
The evil can be either a person or group or something like a characteristic. In the Epic of Gilgamesh, evil is represented through pride and arrogance. Examples of Gilgamesh battling with this can be found all throughout the epic. One relative example is how he can not wrap his head around the fact that he is only two thirds god and the other third of himself is mortal. This does not make him an immortal being. One additional specific example is the murdering of Humbaba. When killing him, Gilgamesh chooses to sever his head. To me this shows that he wants to kill him in the way that makes himself feel the most accomplished. The evil in Star Wars is within the Empire. The empire wants complete control over the whole galaxy in somewhat of a communist manner. The rebels fight for the common good and interests of the people, not the concentration of power to one person or group with everyone else enslaved to the leader. In the end, evil always
