But, if Twain told the story from the perspective of a character whom Huck portrays negatively, the reader could realize that his or her motives are similar to those of Huck. The protagonist lies about his identity for similar reasons as the King and the Duke: self-preservation. When the two men first reveal their “rightful” truths, Huck knows they are lying about their identities from the books he has read. Throughout this episode, Huck and Jim learn that the King and the Duke’s reasoning for lying is to acquire enough money and respect for their survival. When they performed their “Shakespearean Revival”, the Duke instructed his
Kipling thought that these men where somewhat hypocrite or at least they would soon become different. He thought that they could think and promise they wouldn’t change but at the end one of them would change after receiving the power of being king. Through time he came to know he was right and one of the two men changed completely after starting to receive part of the control. Dravot’s self-worth started to grow gradually and he started becoming selfish and arrogant to those near him. He even started treating his friend Carnehan in a different way.
We find traces of his philosophy in modern politics by how people running for seats of power make many promises in their campaign and once the people elect them, they may fall short in accomplishing their promises.

Edmund plots against his legitimate brother Edgar and wants to get what is his “Edmund the base/ Shall top the legitimate. I grow, I prosper:/ Now gods, stand up for bastards” (Shakespeare 1.2.20-23) Another thing that should make Gloucester suspicious towards Edmund is that he planned to send him away again “He hath been out nine years and away he shall again” Although Gloucester should be aware of the envy that Edmund feels towards his brother Edgar and the hatred that he might feel towards Gloucester himself he doesn’t see these feelings as a possibility and trusts Edmund when he presents the letter which he claims is from Edgar and in which he supposedly conspires against his own father. This is a foreshadowing about the physical blindness that shall befall Gloucester later in the Play, because he couldn’t tell which of his sons he could trust and because he was blind towards the greed and envy of Edmund.

They believed that if the literature standards are ignored, it will result in cultural degeneration. He wrote An Essay of Criticism and The Dunciad to elucidate on his viewpoint of literary standards. The Dunciad, the long and elaborated mock-heroic poem of Alexander Pope was first published in 1728. The poem is filled with dark brilliance which at first served as a weapon for the personal war Pope had against stupidity and dullness. According to Pope, “Dulness” presides over the literary creations of the hack writers and is promoted by patrons who cannot appreciate art and publishers who prioritize profitability.
Machiavelli’s new perspective of politics was mainly influenced by italy’s political statue and lack of proper leadership. He believed that with his view of politics, future prince 's would shape Italy into a powerful state, and he states: “Italy is waiting to see who can be the one to heal her wounds, put an end to the sacking of Lombardy, to extortion in the Kingdom and in Tuscany, and cleanse those sore which have now been festering for so long. See how Italy beseeches God to send someone to save her from barbarous cruelties and outrages; see how eager and willing that country is to follow a banner, if only someone will raise

As of late the feud between the media and President Trump has escalated, this has caused the general population to be forced to decide who is the instigator, Trump or the media? I believe that while the media does retaliate, this childish back and forth was fueled by Trump and someone in his position should not focus on a petty feud such as this. I believe that as president he must show a strong image and refrain from continuing to ridicule the media. Because of Trump’s constant twitter rants about the media and the overall popularity of the issue many articles have been written on both the pro-Trump and anti-Trump side. These articles use different rhetorical devices to convey their point and get the reader to agree with them.
The 2016 presidential election well demonstrated the possibility that the electoral college could generate a different outcome with the one of popular votes. It also brought back the controversy about whether or not we should continue to use this method to elect our president.
