In “War is Kind”, Stephen Crane used an experienced military officer tasked with giving death notifications as well as commanding soldiers on the battlefield to reveal his disillusion and contempt with war by conveying sympathy for the people left behind, the shock of perception versus reality, the overall futility of war itself, dehumanization of soldiers, and the power of war to take and destroy.

"Gubbinal." These three poems share much in common. They contain many of the same elements of poetry, such as connotative meaning, imagery, symbolism, and tone. First, the three famous poems all possess a connotative meaning . Within the poem "Gubbinal," Stevens wrote, "The world is ugly".

first time visitor used to describe Elevation church. Elevation’s method of church is nothing like your average traditional church. Not only is Elevation a church where people come to meet with God but it’s also a movement and a smart strategic business plan which is why I wanted to focus my Ethnography paper on Elevation church.

Death, who associates the demise of others with the changing “colors of the sky,” and what those colors mean to the story; and the book thief—as a survivor.

After a conviction in a lower court for offensive speech, and an affirming decision by the Supreme Court, the fighting words doctrine was born. It is worth noting that the fighting words doctrine has not been extended to written works. If someone were to put the exact same thing in a book or an advertisement it could not get the fighting words classification.

that the “fearful trip is done”. In the poem, multiple extended metaphors are used, with the so-called “Captain” is Abraham Lincoln himself, while the “fearful trip” was the Civil War. The next line, line 2, references the “ship” which is America, and how it had weathered every rack, which defines that America had survived the Civil War, and the “prize we sought”, the Union victory in the Civil War, “is won”. Line 3 describes the reaction of the American people, celebrating their victories in the Civil
