Cassandra

This past weekend I went to view Southern Miss’s Trojan Barbie. This play was an amazing display of the range of talent in Southern Miss’s theatre department. As I stepped through the doors of Tatum Theatre, I was transported back to Ancient Troy. Along with the set, the preshow soundtrack made me excited for the play that I was about to see. When the lights dimmed and the play began, soldiers walked out from the vomitoriums and surrounded audience members. When the first solider yelled his line…

In the book of Euripides, three specific characters are included in the plays. The three characters are Medea, Hecuba, and Electra. Starting with Medea, I feel that she is a person that does not care about anything and she also is not afraid to hold anything back and say what’s on her mind just like ways of a man. Medea is a cold blooded killer without showing any hesitation. I have met some people who can relate to Medea’s ways. Now talking about Hecuba, she is sort of like Medea but not as…

She has not had a nap. Cassandra is my cousin. I administered the activity on Monday around 5pm. Cassandra and I were sitting at her dining table. I presented a list that included five different grocery items (milk, eggs, bread, orange juice, strawberries). I then asked Cassie, “what can you do to…

thought back. He recalled the last year of Cassandra’s life; how her parents kept her so close. She lived with them until moving in with Blake. Heat began to rise from his skin as he realized what Cassandra had really been hiding from him all those years ago. Trying to wrap his mind around how in the world Cassandra and Blake could have hid a baby from him, he slammed his fist down on the cherry desk.

In the Odyssey, the gods and their will represent fate, and as such bring both joy and suffering. Fate in the Iliad -- or rather -- the Fates are more powerful, such that the gods must consider them before interfering in the lives of mortals. In tragedies, fate is presented again as an extension of the gods, but in a much more negative light. However, one thing that remains constant throughout genres is that fate is ultimately inescapable. In the Odyssey, the Fates as mythological beings are not…

The Downfall of Hector and his family described in Homer’s Iliad, Vergil’s Aeneid, and Euripides “The Trojan Women” not only describes ancient history in a great mythological rhetorical sense, but actually is used and directs the fate of future historical events. By using the following methods of interpretations and analysis; Social charter theory, Structuralism, and Feminism and Gender, this essay will expound upon the ideas that these theories in fact do explain the impact it had on historical…

Pride and Prejudice is set in England during the early 19th century and is a very satirical novel. The novel follows the Bennet family, where Mr. and Mrs. Bennet have their arms full with their five young daughters, and the troublesome fact that the land owned by Mr. Bennet must be handed down to a male heir of the family. With this in mind, Mrs. Bennet is very eager to have her husband meet the very wealthy Mr. Charles Bingley, who had come down to the countryside for the summer with another…

Ethics in Weight Discrimination The U.S has written many laws to help keep discrimination from affecting a person’s chances at landing a job. However, there are still some things that you can discriminate on when people come in for an interview. Things like weight are still being discriminated against as we can see from these 2 court cases. One is from the State of Michigan, the only state that doesn’t allow discrimination against weight, where a waitress for Hooter’s successfully sued after…
