The imagination is a tricky facet of the human mind for the philosopher. Each philosopher seems to have his own definitions of what the senses and the human imagination actually are, and the role that each plays in the development and everyday existence of man. Plato errs on the side of shunning the arts and the imaginative in the Republic. Others like Aristotle and Hobbes are more welcoming, treating the imagination as a facet, or a close relative of the memory. Despite the varying opinions, one

few classes of individuals are looked downward on by others; for instance, pure blooded wizards look with down to muggles, mud-bloods, and blood traitors. Significantly more classes demonstrate partiality towards humanoid creatures, for example, centaurs, goblins, and other half-breeds. Regardless of the measure of graciousness in a character’s heart, almost every one of them demonstrate some sort of racism over the span of the novels. In current culture, even the best of individuals have worked

In C.S Lewis’s book Prince Caspian, he uses this idea of re-enchantment. Throughout the book, he talks about the past. How things used to be in the times of old, and how they are different now. Re-enchantment is the idea of going back to the old way of thinking. People now of days have a sort of disconnect with the world around them. They are less “enchanted” or less aware or connected with things in nature (Taylor). Lewis talks about this in his novel. He brings up several occasions where characters

the worst, a quite depressingly, realistic world view.      One of the most colorful analogies that Machiavelli makes is when he describes the teacher of Achilles. A brilliant example of man’s inherent paradox, Chiron, the centaur, was significant to Machiavelli because he was half man and half beast making the argument that one without the other has no lasting effect. “As the lion cannot protect himself from traps, and the fox cannot defend himself from wolves, you have to

The Underlying Courage in “A Wrinkle in Time” Typically in novels there are many supporting themes to create the storyline in the novel; in “A Wrinkle in Time” by Madeline L’Engle a major theme in the novel is courage. It shows in almost every chapter, through Margaret (Meg) Murry and Charles Wallace Murry.

Ancient Wonders Antipator created a list of awe inspiring structures that spanned a period of time, of approximately three thousand years (Banks “Preface”). The list came to be called the, Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, as each wonder was located in different areas of the world (Banks “Preface”). Europe could only claim one, two were in Africa, while three were located in Asia, leaving the final one on a small island south of Greece (Banks “Preface”). These structures were spoke of throughout

our short life, / And in the eternal then so badly steeps us!” (Inferno, Canto XII) Dante forces these souls to boil in a river of blood, the level of the blood varying depending upon the extent of their sins. Not only has that, but he then sends Centaurs around the banks of the river to beat on the souls every time they try to climb out. This punishment is far from the most shocking when it comes to the gore. The place in which this punishment tops the list is in viewing the ways in which it causes

those mornings when the sun chased away the shadows and smeared the sky with too much color. A breeze tousled my hair as I sat with my back pressed against an ancient oak tree. I tried not to think too much about Gramps, but I kept wondering: if the centaurs were real and if all this magical stuff was possible, surely there had to be a way to help him and them at the same time. An acorn dropped from overhead and left an impression in the dirt. Prints. Of course. Why hadn’t I thought of that before? I

Puero (Rowdon 166-68). One famous artist that is well known today is Michelangelo. He was a young protege of Lorenzo the Great.
