farmer. Having been in the same profession and location most of his young life, Berry in 1958 (at age twenty-four) accepted a Stanford University Stegner Fellowship. Intrigued, he decided to read Stegner’s books and take this professor’s writing seminar. Berry is reverent and testifies that Stegner filled the Jones Room of the Stanford Library with an aura of literary authority. It is here that Berry learns “responsible writing.” This is writing that contains the values one has “proven” by living
Character revelation is how a character is portrayed to the audience. The relationship between John and Elizabeth Proctor in Arthur Miller's, The Crucible is presented in two different stages throughout the play. The first stage is a troubled relationship lacking in chemistry. The second stage is that of acceptance, presenting a clear picture to the audience of the love between John and Elizabeth. The First Stage The relationship is cold, lacking in chemistry, it is very awkward. There is

The Theme of Love In William Shakespeare's Othello the Theme of Love is very important. The main themes conveyed are: Love can be used against you/ love can be manipulated, and love is blinding (unconditional love). The theme of love can be used against you is best shown in Othello and Desdemona, Cassio and Bianca, Roderigo and Desdemona, and Iago, Roderigo, and Brabantio. The theme of love is blinding is best shown in Desdemona and Othello, Emilia and Iago, and Brabantio and Desdemona. Love can
concerned with marring Helen's beauty that seems to have thrown a bane in the camp. The other Loves The other love between Paris and Helen is more pictured as lust and it satiric presentation sets the mood of the whole play. During the seminar, it was said that this love had indirect influence on the ending of the love of Troilus and Cressida. Moreover, a similarity with the latter was drawn in that both men are distracted from their duties as warriors. One can also add here Achilles who
The Miss California, USA Seminar At the Miss California, USA seminar we were directed in how to apply makeup the correct way for stage lighting and also we had a number of evening gowns modeled so that we could know what is acceptable. We also had numerous swimsuits modeled for us by other delegates who I will be competing with. The person in charge of the USA pageant organization is Carolee Munger from San Luis Obispo, CA. She taught us how to present ourselves in the presence of our judges and
Withering Heights remind each reader of the tranquil lifestyle enjoyed by the British at this juncture in their history. As pointed out in Seminar 1, "travel was not an easy chore" at this time, thus making frequent visiting among neighbors impossible (Seminar 1 J.H.). Therefore, it is understandable that women occupied their time knitting and gossiping (Seminar 1 K.T.). The women of Withering Heights portray this idol lifestyle. When Lockwood meets Cathy 2, she is idly setting in the apartment. Cathy
During the past 12 weeks of learning this module, I have discovered and learnt so much about myself that I have never known up until now. I have always been a shy team member who just kept themselves to themselves and simply got on with the job at hand. This may be due to me having a stronger preference for working or studying in an organised and systematic way. As part of the module, we had to take part in an Oxfam Fundraising event that saw groups made up of four to five team members come up with
Jesus' Prohibition Against Swearing and His Philosophy of Language In an article entitled "Oath Taking in the Community of the New Age (Matthew 5:33-37)," Don Garlington calls Jesus' prohibition against swearing an oddity and the avoidance of swearing by certain Christian sects a superficial application of the logion.[1] As a member of one such group, the Mennonites, I offer an apology rather than a rebutal. Mennonites make affirmations rather than swear oaths in order to fulfil Jesus' command
A follower of Yeshua understands that when God says that he will provide for you in abundance, he means that he will love you and show you mercy, not provide earthly things. Another thing a follower of Yeshua understands is that Jesus died on the cross as a sacrifice, so that we will have eternal life. Therefore our job is to spread His word here on Earth. He did not die so that our life here on Earth would be perfect and we would not have any troubles. Before reading this book
Narsapur vs. America This Women’s Studies Senior Seminar class has provided the opportunity to read about many cross-cultural issues pertaining to women. In the article, “Women Workers and Capitalist Scripts: Ideologies of Domination, Common Interests, and the Politics of Solidarity” by Chandra Talpade Mohanty, issues of “poor women worker in the global capitalist arena” (3) are addressed. Mohanty focuses on the plight of exploited, poor Third-World women. She illuminates specific issues that
states are role models in the way their juvenile justice systems are managed and executed. Generally, state juvenile delinquency prevention systems were overhauled as a result of the high crime rates in the early 1990s. For my political science Senior Seminar research project, I wanted to look at what factors affected state delinquency rates. I was looking for what effects the reforming (or lack thereof) of these systems has had on the crime committed by juveniles in the states. Working for the Washington
me in this book. More specifically, the "I am" statements of Jesus Christ made this Gospel speak to me more than any other of the Gospels. Without a doubt, these statements that Jesus made were for the believers and the church. The "I am" statements are all meant to tell us something different, with the purpose of helping all people to believe in Jesus Christ, so that everyone may have everlasting life with our Father in Heaven. Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never
crafted by adding details that is different from the synoptic gospels. Within the sixth chapter of John is filled with Jesus's miracles and teachings. Jesus feeding the five thousand and Jesus stating that he is the bread of life has similar characteristics. As well as the second section, Jesus walking on water and last section, disciples deserting Jesus have same characteristics with each other. There are common characteristics that these sections as well. The locations of these events are in the
The Quest for the Historical Jesus John Dominic Crossan vs. Dale Allison: Two Different Ways to Look at Mysterious Figure For someone so well known, Jesus is someone the historical world knows little about. Around this religious figure revolves a strange phenomena. Most people could probably tell you something Jesus stood for, or the gist of something he said, just off the top of their head. But someone who has spent years studying Jesus within a historical context, would probably have a hard
When one thinks of the phrase “quest for the Historical Jesus”, one cannot help but imagine a perilous journey into the heart of Bethlehem for this “historical Jesus.” While a choose-your-own adventure may sound appealing, a perilous quest for the Historical Jesus is not what is being conveyed. This quest is a reflection of who Jesus was and what He was like. Was this omnipotent, all-loving incarnation of God an accurate reflection of what we know? The view of Christ’s life has undergone critical
reporter for the Chicago Tribune. He also described himself as a "former spiritual skeptic" before his personal mission for the proof of God. Skeptics around the world claim that Jesus either never said He was God or He never exemplified the activities and mindset of God. Either way they rather triumphantly proclaim that Jesus was just a man. Some will go so far as to suggest that He was a very moral and special man, but a man nonetheless. For Strobel, there was far too much evidence against the idea
being where we would really like to be, and we miss the great event. Just a few weeks ago I met with some friends who attended an, apparently, incredible seminar that I really wanted to attend. Unfortunately it fell on a day I had to perform a wedding. Oddly enough the bride and groom were unsympathetic to my plight. So I msseid the seminar.

Additionally, in spite of all threats of intimidation, and even though He was given every chance, He never denied His claim to be God. Therefore, Christians believe that Jesus was God in human form. Next, His life matters because of how He lived. His manner of living provided for us, a model by which we can compare our own
