    Many people know Arthur Miller as an author due to his many famous works such as Death of a Salesman and The Crucible. However, there’s much more history to Miller than what we know. Key events in Miller’s life were composed of three marriages, many of his workpieces making it to Broadway, and how he made it to the top. Although he had a very satisfying professional life, there were many political conflicts involving communism and much more. For many, high school determines our future. Miller had

    In Charlene Fix’s article, The Lost Father in Death of a Salesman she describes how Willy has “two sides”. Since both Biff and Happy grew up idolizing their father, it was difficult for them to conceive of their father being a fake and a liar; especially for Happy who even after discovering his real father in action he refuses to think that is actually him. Fix says, “Happy, the second son, continues to emulate the false Willy, and that accounts for why, at a critical moment in the restaurant scene

    I identify with the character of Linda Loman, from Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller, because she always gives Willy a false sense of confidence, and promises him that he can do whatever he wants and succeed at it, when is clear to the reader that the probability of him succeeding at the task is minimal to impossible. In addition, Linda does more bad than good by giving Willy hope, because he has big hopes and strongly believes he is going to succeed due to Linda’s encouragement, and when he fails

    "Death of a Salesman", although it was made as late as 1985, has a very old-fashioned feel to it. It not only keeps Arthur Miller's plot unchanged, but also follows his text almost literally to the word. There is no attempt to open it up; it is filmed entirely on stylised, deliberately artificial-looking sets similar to those that would be used in a

    Introduction The Dodd-Frank Act has allowed for more leniency when it comes to whistleblowing but this legislation was implemented after this story began. There are several industry protection programs for whistleblowers and the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) even promotes whistleblowing by giving out monetary rewards for certain cases. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) was supposed to make whistleblowers believe that they would not be retaliated against. However, making the determination of whistleblowing

    actually met the man he would be serving. Lord Eldridge was a short, balding, pasty-faced weasel of a man with a laugh like a donkey and no redeeming characteristics at all. He was rude, inconsiderate, obnoxious and, above all, disrespectful to both Arthur and Camelot. Now, the looks of pity and the whispered comments of "He won't be here long, Merlin" began to make sense! Merlin had been Arthur's manservant long enough to have learned that not everyone treated their servants with the same consideration

    I decided to write a review of Syfy Channel’s miniseries Incorporated, when I heard it was made by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. If those two have helped create a miniseries that is as good as the films they acted in, and as good as the actors as they are, then it will be a hit. Corporations in the future, through a series of events including natural disasters, have become superpowers. People involved in them live nice and comfortable lives in an area called the “Green Zone,” while the others have
