Paisley felt that if Catholics were left to their own devices, they would try to destroy Protestants and gain control throughout the world. Protestants like Basil Brooke attempted to mask the discrimination, passing it off as "resentment" - Brooke was
Catholics in Northern Ireland 1. Source A indicates the problems Catholics in Northern Ireland had finding jobs in the 1960's. It says, "The big employers were privately run companies" who could easily be "anti-Catholic" and gives the example of the Belfast shipyard which was the biggest source of employment in the city which out of 10,000 workers only employed 400 Catholics. This shows even the biggest companies were anti-Catholic. Source A also gives the example of Fermanagh, a County
The Importance of the Marching Season to the Peace Process Every July, Orange Order marches take place to commemorate the Battle of The Boyne of 1690. Since the beginning of ‘The Troubles’ in 1969, the sectarian divide, essentially in the geographical areas of Northern Ireland, has become synonymous with the hopes and fears of the two ideologies yet who still remain poles apart. Parades and marches by the respective sides, reinforce this confrontation. The marches have often been a flashpoint
succeed should be able to link worklessness and training opportunities to deliver sustainable employment to local residents, as well as physical regeneration of the environment. It is useful to consider Ferguslie Park, a small housing estate in Paisley built as a series of projects between 1926 and 1966, that reached at its peak 3,500 dwellings with a population of 13,500. By the end of the 1960s, Ferguslie Park’s fortunes went into reverse. This was mirrored by a matched decline of the areas mains
Ever since I was in eighth grade, I have been obsessed with Taylor Swift. She has been my role model since I was thirteen. When you look at most singers today, they have to be singing about drugs or alcohol, using vulgar language, or performing half-dressed. You never see Taylor Swift doing anything that she would be ashamed of later in life. On the other hand, she has had many relationships that have lasted short time periods. At least, she is not getting married for 72 days or even 24 hours such

Time is a major theme in Ian McEwan's The Child In Time. "Time is always susceptible to human interpretation. And though time is partly a human fabrication, it is also that from which no parent or child is immune." Time is a major theme in Ian McEwan's 'The Child In Time'. He treats the subject irreverently, 'debunking chronology by the nonlinearity of his narrative.' - Michael Byrne. McEwan uses the setting of Stephen's dull committee as the backdrop for his daydreaming. Even Stephen's
MACBETH, it is probable, was the last-written of the four great tragedies, and immediately preceded Antony and Cleopatra.(note 1, p 331]. In that play Shakespeare's final style appears for the first time completely formed, and the transition to this style is much more decidedly visible in Macbeth than in King Lear .Yet in certain respects Macbeth recalls Hamlet rather than Othello or King Lear. In the heroes of both plays the passage from thought to a critical resolution and action is difficult,
King Lear—A Man More Sinned Against Than Sinning? A King is supposed to have all that he needs without having to worry about anything in his late years. Yet King Lear, in Act 3, Scene 2, cried out in pitifully: “I am a man / More sinned against than sinning.'; Although Lear has made a huge mistake in the first scene of the play in dividing up his kingdom and banishing his two dearest people, the sins his two other ungrateful daughters have done him is far greater than the extent of Lear’s
flattered. Also she falls into Richards arms more easily because she is feeling very insecure seeing as she has no one left to care and protect her because of Richard killing both her husband Edward, and her father-in-law to King Henry Vl. In the Ian Mckellen version of the play I think the scene is made much more climatic by the fact that the body of Edward (Anne’s husband) was there the whole scene, reminding her of what Richard had done. During the whole of this scene I think that Richard
"The beginning is simple to mark". This is the opening sentence of Ian McEwan's novel "Enduring Love", and in this first sentence, the reader is unwittingly drawn into the novel. An introduction like this poses the question, the beginning of what? Gaining the readers curiosity and forcing them to read on. The very word "beginning" allows us an insight into the importance of this event, for the narrator must have analysed it many a time in order to find the moment in which it all began, and so
William Shakespeare has many interesting female characters throughout all of his different types of works. Some of his women are leading ladies while others are just supporting characters that help move the story along. No matter the depth of the characters’ role, each lady gives some type of unthinkable personality trait that would be unique to women during Shakespeare’s time. Macbeth, Othello, and King Lear all have female characters that portray women who wouldn’t be seen during the time of William
Man and God in Frankenstein and Jurassic Park Not since Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, has an author captured such a theme in their work in a way that is magical and captivates the reader. Michael Crichton's science fiction novel Jurassic Park portrays what happens when man plays God: his imperfections cause things to go terribly wrong. The story's, plot, setting, point of view and characterization all add to an atmosphere of fear and raise readers' consciousness about the consequences
into a human or animal egg cell, thereby beginning the life of a new human individual who has only one parent and who is genetically identical to that parent. The once impossible idea of cloning became a reality in 1997 when Scottish embryologist Ian Wilmut and his colleagues at the Roslin Institute in Scotland announced that a cloned sheep named Dolly was born. Dolly was created by removing the nucleus from a sheep egg cell and replacing it in the nucleus of a cell taken from the udder of another
King Lear, Abbey exhibited King Lear, another of his large, dramatic pictures, at the Royal Academy in 1898; the painting was accompanied in the catalog by these lines from Act I, scene i: Ye jewels of our father, with washed eyes Cordelia leaves you. I know what you are; And, like a sister, am most loth to call Your faults as they are named. Love well our father. To your professed bosoms I commit him. But yet, alas! stood I within his grace, I would prefer him to a better place. So
falsely represented by Shakespeare’s play and fight avidly to clear his name of any and all crimes. Because of the uncertainty surrounding his true character, Richard III is an intriguing personality to put into modern culture, which is exactly what Ian McKellen does in his rendition of the infamous ruler. However, McKellen’s portrayal of Richard III preserves the basic personality of Shakespeare’s character and continues the idea of Richard III as tyrant and murderer; there is no doubt that McKellen
How Soaps Attract Their Target Audience I n this essay, I am going to compare Eastenders and Neighbours. I will identify the key ingredients shared by different soaps and examine ways in which such key ingredients differ from one soap to another. The key ingredients to soaps are that they last for years. The soaps are usually serial and are set in a specific location e.g. Albert square in Eastenders. In soaps, they all have characters, which appeal to a specific audience. Here are

In Professor Brian Finney’s essay “Briony’s Stand Against Oblivion: Ian McEwan’s Atonement,” he suggests that any attempt at atonement is “bound to fail,” and so the most one can do to repent their mistakes is to “imagine the feelings of others.” In many cases, visualizing oneself in the position of another can play a large role when seeking forgiveness. However, in Briony’s case, her attempt to use corrective fiction to make amends for the mistakes of her childhood is not enough for her to achieve
Reflect on the theme of agency in the three plays we have studied in this course. What is agency? How do characters lose or gain it? What role does it play in the structure and thematic layering of each play? If you wish, you may want to discuss its relevance to your own life (although this personal note is not required) “Agency is the capacity to act, and ‘agency’ denotes the exercise or manifestation of this capacity. It has been argued that agency can and should be explained without reference
