Gilman, and The Story of an Hour, by Kate Chopin. In the perspective of two female writers in

Throughout history, women have struggled to be seen as equals and have had to fight for their freedom from the roles society placed upon them. Kate Chopin and Charlotte Perkins Gilman both use their literary works to show the challenges women went through, and how they battled for the freedoms they desperately wanted. “The Yellow Wallpaper” is a short story about a woman that goes to a summer home to rest and get well under the supervision of her husband who is also a physician. Her husband decided it would be best if she sat in a room alone and did nothing. In the end, she becomes insane and finally finds her freedom. “The Story of An Hour” is about, Mrs. Mallard, a woman who has just found out her husband has died. Mrs. Mallard

The symbols and imagery used by Kate Chopin's in “The Story of an Hour” give the reader a sense of Mrs. Mallard’s new life appearing before her through her view of an “open window” (para. 4). Louise Mallard experiences what most individuals long for throughout their lives; freedom and happiness. By spending an hour in a “comfortable, roomy armchair” (para.4) in front of an open window, she undergoes a transformation that makes her understand the importance of her freedom. The author's use of Spring time imagery also creates a sense of renewal that captures the author's idea that Mrs. Mallard was set free after the news of her husband's death.

In this essay I will be comparing the two short stories “The Story of an Hour” and “The Yellow Wallpaper”. “The Story of an Hour”, written by Kate Chopin, is centered around a woman by the name Louise Mallard and her reaction after being informed of her husbands “death”, On the other hand “The Yellow Wallpaper” Written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman is about Jane, A young, newly married mother who at the time is undergoing care because of her depression. Although both essays have their similarities and differences I will be focusing mainly on the themes of Freedom, Isolation and Oppression. I will also be focusing on how the themes appear within both short stories and do a compare and contrast about the way the themes appear in the two short stories.

Hi Amy. I have just wanted to expand on your post. In the beginning of chapter 10, Sacks explores medical history. He argues that the course taken by sound vibrations, from their entry into the external ear canals, through the eardrums on either side to the small bones, the ossicles, of the center ear, to the snail-molded cochlea, was initially worked out in the seventeenth century. It was believed then that sounds were transmitted by the ear, becoming enhanced in the cochlea "as in a musical instrument." After a century, it was found that the tapered shape of the cochlear spiral was differentially tuned to the scope of discernable frequencies, responsive to low sounds at its wide base, high sounds at its narrow apex. At last, by 1700, it was

Perhaps no other figure in recent American history more quintessentially embodied the unique cross-section of neurosurgery and music than George Gershwin, a first generation American born to Russian-Jewish immigrants who took up piano at the age of twelve and went on to become one of the most renown musicians of the twentieth century. In an era that preceded sophisticated neuroimaging, Gershwin, at the age of thirty-eight, began experiencing recurrent syncopal episodes characteristic of seizures, which eventually progressed to left-sided hemiparesis and impaired consciousness before Drs. Walter Dandy and Howard Nafziger were urgently consulted for evaluation of a suspected brain tumor. This was ultimately confirmed upon partial surgical resection

The final stretch of the 10th century into the advent of the 11th had seen significant changes among the Jutland region that had set up a new status quo for the new millennium. The previous centuries had seen the region consisting of a collection of warlords leading their own personal clans. The Viking age had seen these warlords expanding outwards, sailing out to ravage foreign communities to colonize and bring back slaves and resources. By the end of millennium, however, several factors, most notably the strengthened central powers in the Viking’s favored pillaging location, Western Europe, resulted in a decline in Viking raids and an impetus for Viking warlords to look locally to expand their wealth. The spread of Christianity through the Danish areas was strengthened by this incentive to control local resources, new expertise in manipulating resources that was brought along with foreign missionaries was welcomed. It is then under Harald Bluetooth, son of the first historically recognized King of Denmark, Gorm the Old, who ruled in western Jutland, that the Danes were officially united and converted to Christianity in a kingdom that extended through most of the Jutland peninsula, the Danish Isles, and up into the area of what is now Sweden. The Viking Age officially ended around 1086 with the death of King Canut IV, who attempts to re-conquer England, which had been under Danish control from 1014 to 1035, were subdued before they even started by an angry peasantry, chafing under the many tithes added to pay for religious monuments and the stifling nature of

Fate is an interesting thing and even though it may seem like two situations will turn out one way, it ends up turning another way. While comparing two stories, fate and expectations might show us how two people’s situations can be similar, while contrasting will show us the stark differences. Everyone’s story is their own, but can two stories have the same outcome? This paper is dedicated to finding the similarities and differences between fates. We will be examining ‘The Story of an Hour’ by Kate Chopin, and ‘The Interlopers’ by Saki.

Today the citizens of Norway recognize the historic value of this service and most Norwegians are quick to defend Hurtigruten and fight to keep its heritage alive no matter what the cost.

Elongation by Georgios Varoutsos is an exploration piece from the personal recordings conducted over the month of November, 2015. After recording fifty-six different types of instruments, the project was intended to project the capabilities and characteristics of the recorded sounds. The sounds needed to abide by a project ruling which consisted of having every sound subjected to one and/or two initial sound modifications before alternative transformations. The conceptualization of this piece was to begin exploring alternate resources for sound material, my interest was moving away from digital source material and begin practising my recording skills at the same time. This led to my piece deriving only from my own work and relying on my skills
