The story of Frankenstein is one that focuses mainly on the idea of losing touch with the reality of what is family and love whilst in the pursuit of knowledge. This can initially be experienced in the beginning of the novel in the letters Walton sends to his sister Margaret Saville. In this case, Walton, in search of a passage to the Pacific, risks his life without much regard for how his sister may feel. During his voyage Walton eventually gets into a situation, being trapped in the ice, that jeopardizes

flowers: flowers are of different features. They differ in size, shape, color and smell. Some of them are big and some are small. Again, some are white, some are red, some are yellow, and some are pink, while others are multicolored. Many a flower blooms in the wilderness. Some flowers are liked for their charm; some are liked for their sweet smell while others are liked for both charm and smell. There are both cultivated and wild flowers. There are also native as well as foreign flowers. Common

In order to begin this examination of women as Sirens we must first turn to the Odyssey in order to understand the characteristics usually attributed to these mysterious and deadly creatures. In Greek mythology Sirens were sea Nymphs who lured sailors to their deaths with their alluring song. In the Odyssey Odysseus is warned about the sirens who “enchant all who come near them”.3 He orders his men to plug their ears with wax so as not to hear their song. He himself cannot resist the opportunity

HDD (hard disk drive), and how they work together with RAM. Gibson pushes the boundary when talking about splicing or how people can get into other people’s minds, and actually feeling their pain. Other technology such as extended nail blades that Molly has is also hard to grasp. Questions such as “How long are they?” or “How can those fingers actually hold a blade since they have joints?” cross our minds. These are just two types of technologies out of many that are mentioned in the book, and that

implication for people of Asian descent. A few years ago, I watched a movie called Sixteen Candles with my then nine-year-old cousin. One of the characters was a foreign exchange student named Long Duk Dong who pathetically hit on and was rejected by Molly Ringwald, a white classmate he lived with. Dong is a perfect example of how Asian men are seen as undesirable/portrayed in media. He was the ‘typical’ geeky, unattractive, socially awkward FOB Asian. Grace Ji-Sun Kim, a Korean researcher, complained

Sixteen Candles is a movie about how a rich girl does not get to forfeit dreaded teenage years. For Samantha Baker, the angst of young adulthood is with her every single day. From her family forgetting her sixteenth birthday, to the geek freshman wanting her underpants. Despite Samantha dreading every single day of her life, things turn up for her in the end. In the beginning of Sixteen Candles, you can see that the Baker family lives in a nice house and the family is getting ready to go to work

Mr. Leopold Bloom faces many temptations during his 10 a.m. walk around Dublin on June 16, 1904, in James Joyce’s modernist masterpiece, Ulysses. Joyce uses a stream of consciousness technique that allows the reader to read the direct thoughts of the characters of his book throughout one day. Many Americans were offended at the character’s uncensored thoughts, and it took over ten years for the United States to allow publication of this purportedly obscene book. Since many people’s thoughts include

Philosophy, Interdisciplinary Teaching and Student Experience ABSTRACT: This paper focuses on novel approaches open to teachers of philosophy in particular, but more generally also to other university teachers, in the face of what Allan Bloom saw as the waning of a literary culture. It is argued that, although some of Bloom's suggestions regarding the successful engagement of students' interest-against overwhelming odds-are didactically valuable, he neglects precisely those avenues from which

The plays that I chose to see were Balm in Gilead and Red Hot Patriot: The Kick-Ass Wit of Molly Ivins. These two plays were very different, one play had many different people talking at the same time and the other play was a one woman show. There are many elements that make up each play, and there are also specific scenic elements that contribute to the tone. The first play I saw was Balm in Gilead. The set of this play had five different levels; it had the ground level (outside), the diner level

to interact once again with the cyberspace and to rise above the condition of a simple “meat” (Miller and Wagner-Martin 57). The interaction with the cyberspace is described as ultimate physical experience and is compared to an orgasm (Roberts 174) Molly states “I saw you stroking that Sendai;
