John was born in 1815 in Recchi, Italy. When John was two, his father died prematurely. As a boy, John lived on a farm with his family doing the only thing they knew how, farming. Poverty and a lack of formal education in the home did not stop the growth of John Bosco as a person. His mother was for real, realizing the importance of God in life (http://www.sfn.saskatoon.sk.ca/rel/cath- boscocamp/about.html). Getting a formal education was a constant struggle for John.

of Macbeth In the beginning of the play, The Tragedy of Macbeth, Macbeth is merely a nobleman and a Scottish general in King Duncan's army. Macbeth later becomes the deserving Thane of Glamis and Cawdor and the undeserving King of Scotland (Dominic 255). In the beginning Macbeth is a man with good intentions and a good heart; sometimes he just has a hard time following his good instincts and heart. Macbeth's ambition and the persuasion of his wife lead him to commit several horrible deeds. Macbeth
makes many mistakes at the end of his lifetime. The want of an untroubled life of second childhood without the responsibilities of a well respected king is the main mistake Lear makes. The slippage of his self- image finally causes him to go mad (Dominic 233). Before Lear goes mad he realizes the state in which he is turning when he states, “My wits begin to turn.';( III.ii.67). Lear’s suffering is primarily mental and climaxes when Regan throws him out in the storm (Bruhl 317). The main

Brutus’s honor, nobility, and self-righteousness makes him “a tragic figure, if not the hero” (Catherine C. Dominic). As the play opens, Brutus is known as a Roman nobleman and a member of one of the most illustrious families in Rome. He is first seen in Act I, scene ii, as one of Caesar’s “close friends” who is part of his entourage. But while alone with Cassius

The Free Speech Movement (FSM) at the University of California at Berkeley started during the fall of 1964. (Freeman, Jo) But there were many events leading up to this point.

The FSM was proof that when students unite for a cause they can instigate dramatic change in campus life. The movement’s greatest inspiration and influence was the Civil Rights movement. In the summer of 1964, some Berkeley students, including Mario Savio, participated in civil rights activities in the south. The experience had a profound impact on them and gave them the courage to attack the bay area’s racial discrimination issues and campus politics. By the time the protests ended, there had been
We all have at least one family member who stands out from the rest. Whether it’s an aunt or a distant cousin, their personality and demeanor is so strange that you wonder how they can be related to you.

I am not doing temperature because it would be hard to get results from and I think they wouldn't be as accurate.

But someone who has spent years studying Jesus within a historical context, would probably have a hard
