English 1401 Research Paper

High schools everywhere read Romeo and Juliet every year. It’s a part of our curriculum but should it be? The answer is no, it shouldn’t be. Teenages don’t want to read a story that was written over four hundred years ago and barely legible. Most kids like to read stories that they can relate to, not some unrealistic story about the fourteenth century. Also throughout the book there are sexual references that bring out the immaturity in people. The majority of people don’t find Romeo and Juliet interesting anymore, so why should we force them to read it?

Many people believe that Shakespeare wrote his own plays and many people do not. The author of article Read claims, "Some of Shakespeare's plays took place outside of London but Shakespeare never traveled outside of London. Shakespeare only had a few legal documents with his handwriting and his plays were written by a different hand. Also people say that the plays was wrote by a scholar and there is no proof that Shakespeare ever attended school" (Fraser). People who do not believe it was Shakespeare who wrote the plays think it was Sir Francis Bacon, Christopher Marlowe, or Edward de Vere. So the real question is: did Shakespeare really write his own plays or did someone else? It is Edward de Vere that wrote Shakespeare.

My final thoughts towards English 1301 would probably be described in one word which would be awesome; from what I learned in class will help me out towards my path to the future I understand that I still have some errors as I write essays or journals; but I will like to believe that I will get better as I stay in English and I work more on my dents that I have.

In English 1101 we wrote several pieces of writing. Each piece was unique and I learned new things with everyone. My favorite piece of writing was the research paper because I could choose the topic and it was a topic I think is very interesting. Even though it was probably the hardest one to write I thought it was my best piece and I loved my topic of Genetically Engineered Babies. My least favorite was the memoir because I struggled writing it and I had trouble picking a topic. It turned out being a really good memoir but I didn’t love writing it. My strongest piece is probably my common app essay because I put everything I was into that paper. My paper was called “I’m So Much More Than a Test Score”. It was really powerful and explained

Throughout the semester of History 1301 I have learned many things that have really caught my attention and focus into history. However, one specific thing that has really blown my mind and has made me feel that history might not always have the correct information and has made me wonder if they are still dependable with the information they are stating is how Christopher Columbus was NOT the first to discover America, it is a myth. The Native Americans discovered North America about 14,000 years before Columbus was even born. On the second Monday in October each year, we celebrate Columbus Day (this year, it’s on October 11th). We teach our school kids a cute little song that goes: “In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.” It’s an American

While taking taking English 1302 with prof. Innis, i learned so much stuff that was useful to me in college. Every student should be able to say a few things they have learned from a class after they finished with it, and that's what I am here to do today. During this class period i learned how to manage time, stop procrastinating a lot, and finally i learned to become a better writer. All of these improvement made me a better student, and I am grateful for it.

Life in Anglo Saxon England was more dangerous than you would think. Anglo Saxons could be at risk from famine and epidemics, also diseases including degenerative arthritis, leprosy, and tuberculosis. Archaeological evidence appears to show life expectancy was in the thirties, and high infant deaths. Old English Saxon rulers were productive officials, and law-codes somehow survived the seventh tof eleventh century. Under the seventh-century Kentish law, for instance, the total of 12 shillings was payable for removing an ear, 30 shillings for incapacitating a shoulder, and 50 shillings for putting out an eye. Thumping out a front tooth was surveyed at a higher rate of remuneration than thumping out a back tooth, while a finger was worth twice as much as a toe.

In medieval times, many things were much different than what we do/have today. Even just the way they have fun or prepare food can be exceptionally different or strangely similar. Modern times and medieval times can be compared and contrasted in so many ways that can teach us more about their life, and how much we changed. The two eras differ because of the foods they ate and enjoyed. Long ago in medieval times, they had exotic foods and meats that included peacocks, boar heads, snake, etc.

Everything changes. It may change for the better or it may change for the worse, but it will change. This is in undeniable and indisputable fact of life. Over the last century we, as humans, have seen more change than ever before. Technology has flourished, morals have mutated and style has been reformed. The world as we knew it is no more. Many changes that have taken place, such as forms of communication, were profoundly crucial for our society today; while others were not. One of these subordinate changes was the progression of sports and the mechanics of these sports. They are now more calculated and more confined.

Way back around 410 A.D., there were people called Anglo-Saxons.

In today’s age putting youth through that would be considered unlawful. So much has changed in the lives of children from the year 449 to now. After exploring the practices of the Anglo-Saxon times and comparing them to the modern day, research shows the major changes to be the expectations and the value in education, the curriculum taught in schools, the roles children played at home, and the gender roles given by society.

The Early Modern Period is an era consisting of revamped ideas, new forms of art, and a revolving door of monarchs. The Early Modern Period is a time period that ranges from about 1500 to 1700.

In the video, it is apparent that Raphel painted these marvelous works of art in 1509-1511 to display the four branches of human knowledge. The four branches that are represented are philosophy, theology, poetry, and justice. He also conveyed how the church is as equally significant as human knowledge through his paintings. He put the paintings with the concepts of the church on the opposite side of those that represented philosophy to show that they are different, but deserve an equal chance to be observed. Moreover, through his paintings, he was able to create a clear picture of both concepts for people to understand his perspective as well as create their own. He put two philosophers, Plato and Aristotle, who have two different views
