Two productions that I had enjoyed seeing very much were Lend Me a Tenor and One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest. Both of these productions were great and had very great storyline and I really enjoyed both of these productions.

What Made Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson Part of the Romantic Movement? The Romantic Movement, or period, was from the year 1828 to about 1865.

A Final Chapter This English class has taken such a unique approach. Some think that that is confusing and difficult to navigate, for me, this new approach to writing is just what I needed. Meandering thoughts and disconnection is at the beginning of any process and I am happy to accept that.

Melville regarded the symbol as, what William Gleim terms, "a means of both revelation and concealment"(402). Visible objects are as masks through which one can educe universal and significant order.
