One of the most defining moments in Roman history was the assassination of Gaius Julius Caesar on the 15th of March, 44 BCE. It sparked the transition from a republican to an imperial system of government for Rome. Caesar admired the idea of a government that was controlled by an individual (Imperialism), and not by senators constantly jostling for power (Republicanism).

puN A good environment which has a correct and healthy leading is requited for a child to grow up. The growth is not only about education of knowledge, but more about to be a good person.

In both situations, Zits’ and Jimmy’s, the planes held meaning for them. For Zits’ the planes were the first gift he had received in who knows how long. As for Jimmy, piloting is his life. It appears to be his job or an important hobby of his. Zits’ response is reflected in Jimmy’s response because they both just sit by as the planes are crashed. Neither acts out. I think Alexie makes this parallel to draw a connection between Zits and Jimmy beyond a racial issue. The other three characters Zits

Elvin Mallory Mrs. Milling 10th Lit 23 February 2017 “Et tu, Brute?° then fall Caesar”. (1.2.27-28) Those are the words of Caesar after his best friend betrayed him by killing him with a group of conspirators.

Hi Mr. Franklin, When we were talking about the river in Siddhartha yesterday, I felt a dull, ringing-in-my-ears kind of understanding. An understanding that wasn't complete, but there was some little piece of it hanging down, waiting for me to grasp it -- begging me, with tears in its eyes, for me to grasp it, but I couldn't quite do it. I understand that the river is the unification of everything. It is eternal, and seductive. A big part of me would really like to live by a river and be a ferry-person
