In the poem “Nothing Gold Can Stay” from Robert Frost, corruption first began in nature. The corruption in nature is first seen in the poem when “… leaf subsides to leaf” and “…dawn goes down to day” (Frost 5, 8). Frost says that nature was once so beautiful but by the conflict in the Garden of Eden it was corrupted. The conflict in the Garden of Eden was caused by corruption in humans.

The poems that have chosen to be analyzed are “Nothing Gold Can Stay” by Robert Frost and “The Powwow at the End of the World” by Sherman Alexie. Both of these poems have a common theme that has to do with nature. Although the poems come from authors of two different backgrounds, one is a white American and the other is a Native American. The poems each use legends or myth to get a specific point across. These poems are great examples of myth/legend use to drive its authors point across, such as

the world in the seven days of creation. This rigid and systematic process in which God transforms and molds the world foreshadows the rigid and defined right and wrong that becomes an inherent and ubiquitous theme in the Bible such as the events of Adam and Eve and Cane and Abel. Furthermore, this theme is extended as “light is created and separated from darkness to designate day and night,” that there is only right and wrong and no moral ambiguity in between the two extremes of black and white. On

it says, “And Adam called his wife 's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.” Therefore, by giving up her title of mother of all living, Eve removes her station as above the animals and makes herself one with them. Another reason this is significant is because in Genesis 2:23 it is written, “And Adam said, ‘This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.’” Therefore, she is disconnecting herself from Adam. She is no longer

possessions were deemed more important than God 's word. However; Eve can also be depicted as loyal, compassionate, and compliant. In retrospect Eve is not as powerless as she is illustrated throughout literature. When reading any type of literature about Adam and Eve, you are most likely persuaded that she was the start of messing up mankind. Eve was known for being a weak women and having a vein personality. Although, Eve was known for all of these ruthless things, in literature, readers are never fully

The New World: a final examination of God and man’s relationship The Bible consists of a wide array of stories and themes that has captured audiences’ attention and interest across borders and time for a number of reasons. However, it is particularly interesting to compare the beginning and end of the Bible – Genesis and Revelation – in order to observe on what terms the dynamic relationship between man and God began and ended. It can be argued that one’s understanding of this relationship between

A worldview is the foundation on which you build your understanding of the world. The worldview of each individual person represents their interpretation of the world, what is true, and what is ethical. These beliefs affect everyone in their lifestyle choices and their aptitude of society. When building a foundation for your worldview, the book of Genesis provides ample facts regarding the natural world, human identity, human relationships, and civilization. The first chapter of Genesis teaches

created humans. First man and then woman known as Adam and Eve. ”And he places everything and everyone in a garden, a perfect world. No sickness, no death, no hate, no hunger”(King 2003,p. 21). But there was one rule, of every tree of a garden there was some nuts and fruits, but none of them was supposed to eat anything. But next what happens is that Adam and Eve breaks the rule. Eve takes a bite of an apple and brings it back for Adam to eat. Adam instead of saying no, ate it. As soon as the rule

In Paradise Lost, Satan is presented as the antagonist of Omnipotence, whose role is to bring evil out of good, and whose later aim is to cause the fall of humankind (God’s best creation) as a means to find solace in making others as miserable as he is… In this essay I will analyze the evolution of Satan’s character, and how the reader’s perception of Satan will change either seeing him as a hero, a poetic force, or as a personified-self-contradiction throughout the books I, IV, and IX from Paradise
