John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men (1937) is an intensely-focused novella that deals with friendship, trust, the relationship between good and evil and the role of justice. It is the second book in Steinbeck’s trilogy about agricultural labour, alongside with In Dubious Battle (1936) and The Grapes of Wrath (1939).

feel like that’s not my place. I feel like if I do that it doesn't feel good to me, it doesn’t feel good to anybody. I feel like whatever I make is for the people, and after watching it you can walk away with whatever you need to walk away with.” Donald Glover, (Childish Gambino), says this in an interview with Chris Van Vliet when asked if he could explain what his latest release, “This is America” is all about. Since the release of “This is America” in early May 2018, social media has been flooded

As you all may know America has had some pretty dysfunctional and arduous presidents from Andrew Johnson creating Jim Crow to James Buchanan, who was involved in the Dred Scott vs. Sanford case in 1857 to Donald Trump doing and creating the most controversy there ever was in the United States. Donald Trump seems to think that he has originated many lucrative businesses such as Trump Airlines, Trump Vodka, Trump Mortgage and even Trump University which he thought was a very intrepid climax.

In his book Shadow of a Mouse: Performance, Belief, and World-Making in Animation, Donald Crafton investigates what “performance” in animation is. Brad Bird, known for The Incredibles (2004) and Ratatouille (2007), argues that “animated films are performances” because the “animated characters are actors who may convey strong emotions” and “the audience responds emotionally to the acting”. In result, the “emotions [that] originate with the animators” make them, the animators, “real” performers (16)

4. Donald Trump 's specific language Donald Trump has mastered the power of language to influence audience like no other politician. All his speeches are emotionally-charged. He uses specific and strong words put in rather short sentences. His goal is to make sure that the audience and potential voters will remember what he was talking about. The way he speaks is distant from the popular modern political rhetorical rules. He uses punchlines and underlines something he wants to be remembered by placing

Are peoples’ opinions that you disagree with not allowed? This question has been heavily put to the test as football players have been swarmed with abhorrence. This anger has been brought to them through the protest that they have acted with, not standing or kneeling during the national anthem, in the past few years. Football players should be protected by the first amendment of the constitution, which is for free speech and protest. Football players should not be punished for their opinion and

After the discovery of his surprising public scandal, it has become incongruous to have any kind of discussion about Bill Cosby in a politically neutral manner; even though only one year prior, hating Cosby would have been synonymous to hating the Beatles.

The film one has chosen to review and analyse is George Clooney's “Goodnight and Good Luck”. It is set in America in the 1950's, a full decade after World War II ended, a period of economic growth and recovery after the Great Depression. It was a time of revolution in terms of social, economic and cultural advancement. Having said that, it was also a period of political turmoil, paranoia and intimidation under Senator Joseph McCarthy. This movie explores the way journalist Edward Murrow used his

RELIGION CAUSES MORE HAARM THAN GOOD TO SOCIETY Religion according to the oxford dictionary is the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power especially a personal God or gods. Every human being in one way or the other belongs to a particular religion. Since religion makes us worship one God then it should be binding all of us.

Personally, I find Donald Trump irrational and unsuitable to become the next American President. Accordingly, I have been having a trouble understanding the popularity and support he has. For this reason, I wanted to investigate on his speech, especially its linguistic features, in order to comprehend why and how people have faith in him.
