The Lioness

I chose “The Iliad” by Homer and related it to “Medea” with the theme and subject matter of a hero’s temper and how the hero stops being tragic once they do something to avenge. I specifically chose Achilles from “The Iliad” because I was able to connect his actions, when Patroclus died, to Medea’s, when her husband betrayed her. These two situations are completely different, however, both characters felt deeply betrayed and whatever pity the authors intended for the audience to have dimmed down

Lion populations in Africa have decreased drastically because of human encroachment, competing species, and little legislation to protect them as a result of their small numbers.

When we think to have a family or friends outing/picnic in Lucknow. The first thing strikes in our mind is The Lucknow Zoo.

Chapter Two Arkansas. Bennett Cromwell had never liked the South. The summer humidity disagreed with him, and there was something about Southern hospitality that he didn't care for. People who were too personable weren't to be trusted. There was purity in solidarity. There was value in small social circles that kept to themselves. A population willing to treat you like a best friend moments after meeting seemed wrong and strange after a New York upbringing. But when the orders came in for his relocation

We catch tiny cutthroat and rainbow trout but they're a lot of work for the meat they provide. We won't be eating like the kings I'd imagined. I was really looking forward to showing off some of those Kamloops and repeating Frank's cool lie. "Worms." We've set up camp in the same spot where Frank showed me how to fish for the Kamloops but, lacking the specialized bait for the big fish, we're free to explore around the lake while catching the minnow trout just about anywhere.

Throughout Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Julius Caesar production, Julius Caesar was continuously presented to be an egotistical human being. He was selfish, arrogant, and, overall, prideful. If it was not for his pride, then perhaps his murder could have been avoided entirely. Julius Caesar decided that no matter what strange occurrences or bad indications appeared in his path, being the ruler of Rome would be his first priority, even if it meant losing his life. And because of this, pride was his

The biggest and most indicative social activity in ancient Roman society was that of gladiatorial combat, and all of the additional components that went along with it. Roman’s of all ages, backgrounds, and social classes spent an exorbitant amount of time observing and enjoying this brutal pastime. For many, especially historians that hold Rome in high regard, it’s hard to believe that these games were such a critical and pervasive component of Roman social life. “To historians the games are scandalous

Is doomed love a popular subject? It sure seems like it. Between The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet and Pyramus and Thisbe fated demise seems to strike the attention of many authors. Not only are the plots strikingly familiar in both writings but the characters and the events show a definite parallelism. The lovers both quarrel through the events and they will do anything to get back to each other. Especially when separation joins the many hardships that occur in these tragedies. Both the story and

of his body and it eliminates him. Seeing as though Gilgamesh and Enkidu were basically brothers, Gilgamesh didn’t take his death lightly. On page fifteen it showed the emotion in which Gilgamesh was feeling, “He began to rage like a lion, like a lioness robbed of her whelps. This way and that he paced round the bed, he tore out his hair and strewed it around. He dragged of his splendid robes and flung them down as though
