In The Master Builder, by Henrik Ibsen, the playwright underlines Halvard Solness’ flaws and shows how they can have an impact on those around him as well as on himself. Throughout the play, Solness, the Master Builder, becomes overcome by an uncontrollable fear of his own mortality, fear of loss and fears that youth and fresh talents will overtake him in his work. As a result, he becomes overwhelmed by his own driving ambition as a means of proving himself. In the play, Solness is described in
The Comedy and Tragedy of A Streetcar Named Desire and The Master Builder It has been said that the world is a comedy to those that think, and a tragedy to those who feel. This philosophy is supported by two important literary works, A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams and The Master Builder by Henrik Ibsen.

For example, the induction method shown in Figure 2.1 (Part c) can be administered by a system analyst. The role of the expert is minimal and there is little need for a separate knowledge engineer. However, the term auto¬matic may be misleading. There is always going to be a human builder, but there may be little or no need for a separate knowledge engineer or expert. Figure 2.1

Cathedrals were used not only as a place of worship, but guild meetings and public events were also held at a cathedral. Cathedrals were also destinations for pilgrimages in which

Researchers have endured the same issues faced by Herod’s builders. Much that would need to be excavated now has been turned into tourist attractions. The vastness of the harbor cannot be certain because of the inability to excavate the site, leaving researchers only the natural configuration of the coastline and
