Richard I reigned over England during the Middle Ages from 1189 to 1199 with great bravery and immense courage. Richard was born as the third legitimate son of King Henry II of England and never assumed that he would ever ascend to become the king. After leading his country in the Third Crusade, he gained the nicknames “the lionhearted” and “the absent king.” Through many heroic deeds while away at war, he deserved the nickname of “The Lionhearted” the most.
Have you ever met someone who is a natural leader? In the Lord of the Flies by William Golding, British boys are sent to an island to keep them safe from a war. The boys are without any adults and must use what’s around them and what they know to survive. Ralph (one of the older boys) is a leader and tried his best to maintain peace and help the group survive. I believe Ralph doesn’t have a distinct character flaw.
My report is on Richard I, byname Richard the Lion-Hearted. He was born September 8, 1157 in Oxford, England. He died on April 6, 1199 in Chalus, England. His knightly manner and his prowess in the Third Crusade(1189-92) made him a popular king in his own time, as well as the hero of countless romantic legends. He has been viewed less kindly by more recent historians and scholars.

Richard Trenton Chase carried the nickname The Vampire of Sacramento because of his obsession of drinking the blood of his victims as well as eating their internal organs. He did this due to his thoughts of needing to prevent the Nazis from turning his blood into poison. Born on May 23, 1950 into a strict household, he was often beaten by his father. When he reached his teen years he became an alcoholic and developed a liking for killing animals and fire starting. In high school, he had multiple girlfriends due to the fact that he couldn’t get aroused. He consulted a psychiatrist and was told that he had rage or mental illness and did not seek further treatment after the diagnosis. It wasn’t until later that he figured that he could only get an arousal by violent or disturbed acts such as killing animals. Before long, Richard’s father purchased him an apartment forcing him to move out after he began to accuse his mother that she wanted to poison him. In his new apartment he would capture kill and disembowel various animals which he would than devour raw. He would also put animals into a blender in order to make into a smoothie. He had in his mind, that these smoothies would be preventing his heart from shirking.
In 1954 William Golding wrote the fictional novel Lord of the Flies, which is about a group of boys who are stranded on an island because of a plane crash, and have to find a way to stay civilized while trying to get rescued. Two boys who ended up hating each other are the characters Jack and Ralph. Even though Ralph was the main leader, they both end up being leaders but in different ways. Jack mostly used meanness and Ralph was nice and supportive. They also had the same goal but in different ways. Jack hunted and separated himself from Ralph and his group, Ralph mostly built and made plans. But they both were the most determined out of any character in the novel. In Lord of the Flies you can learn a lot, but the main theme is that
“A Sorrowful woman” by Gail Godwin tells a short story of a woman who feels the sorrows of being a full time wife and mother and to an extent is an attack on marriage and gender roles. In this short story Gail Godwin shows how marriage does not always lead to a perfect life and I believe Godwin is allowing her audience to view marriage from a different perspective.
Even though like every other human he can break down and get weak, ralph has the characteristics of a natural born leader because he immediately shows signs in leadership and he goes through trials and tribulations which makes him physically and mentally stronger.
Richard III by W. Shakespeare (1592) & “Now: In the Wings on a World Stage,” Jeremy Whelehan, dir. (2014)

This is an idea society has promoted – if something goes wrong in a relationship, it is the woman’s fault. A woman should always aim to please her husband and continue being
The Merchant could possibly be telling us this fictional tale instead of the factual story his miserable marriage. We expect this structural irony of him setting up a man positive and essentially naïve towards marriage to emphasize the cruelty when he realizes he has been cuckolded. The sudden change in opinions in the tale could be seen as an exaggerative irony throughout the tale. The Merchant describes his wife as ‘worste that may be’
Appearances can be deceiving, as is the case with the character in Edwin Arlington Robinson’s poem “Richard Cory.” Published in 1897, “Richard Cory” reflects the economic hardships of nineteenth century America while also exploring the price one has to pay when being perceived as different. Cory’s immense wealth causes others to perceive him as royalty which isolates him from society and disconnects him from the townspeople. Robinson’s bleak description of Richard Cory’s death warns readers that a life without human companionship is a life not lived.
As Buddha once said, ¨It is a man’s own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.¨ As portrayed in the Shakespearean play, Richard III, the evil king who took down everything he could just to be the king he was “meant” to be.

During April Richard stopped on the Byzantine island of Rhodes to avoid the stormy weather. He left in May but a new storm drove Richard's fleet to Cyprus. On May 6, 1191, Richard's fleet arrived in the port of Lemesos (now Limassol). Richard captured the city. When the island's despot Isaac Dukas Comnenus arrived to stop the Crusaders he discovered he was too late, and retired to Kolossi. Richard called Isaac to negotiations but Isaac broke his oath of hospitality and started demanding Richard's departure. Richard ordered his cavalry to follow him in a battle against Isaac's army in Tremetusia. The few Roman Catholics of the island joined Richard's army and so did the island's nobles who were dissatisfied with Isaac's seven years of tyrannical
