Albert Einstein, a German-born theoretical physicist, once said, “Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better” (Wilkes, Nature's Secret Messages: Hidden in Plain Sight). Einstein is referring to nature as a portal into the unknown. Initially, one can find the answers to any question, in nature. This idea refers to the Romantic authors as they write about nature. One Romantic author, Whitman, has written two poems, Song of Myself, and When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer,

Corey Haldiman Goulette Research Paper Walt Whitman Walt used creativity, personal experiences and different ideas in his writing. He moved various times through his childhood, and that may have moved his personality to become slightly neurotic. He has done a lot of things in his life that has changed the way that future poets will write. Walt Whitman entered this world on May thirty-first, eighteen-nineteen in West Hills, New York. He was the second son among nine other children in his

Inequalities toward Women From biblical times, creation began with man. When God created the world and all the things in it, and he thought it was good. But as man walked the earth, God said man should not be alone, and created woman. Since this time where woman has become second to man—almost a spare part, man has ingrained into society that a woman is an accessory and throughout the centuries and millennia the world has evolved and cultures have arisen, it has become the social norm to push a perfect

paternity/ maternity leave policies. Even with current changes we are not where we need to be. The United States Army currently offers 10 days of paternity leave to Soldiers that are married¹ and 12 weeks of maternity leave for female Soldiers.² The Army should convert these two policies into one policy titled parental leave. Some of the benefits of implementing the parental leave policy are mother’s physical and mental readiness, increased performance, and equality. Maternity leave is to allow for the

January 1860 reproduced the assault alongside a nameless reaction by Whitman entitled "About a Mockingbird." There, in one of his first resistances against dangerous feedback, Whitman legitimizes the lyric and his art and predictions another release of Leaves of Grass, what might turn into the 1860 version. "Out of the Cradle" showed up in that version as "A Word Out of the Sea," with the heading "Memory" set between the first and second verse sections. Whitman made a few changes in the sonnet for the

In the autobiography Chinese Cinderella by Adeline Yen Mah, the narrator was influenced in many ways by the people around her. One character which influences the narrator’s life to a vast amount was her step-mother Niang. Her Aunt Baba also played a very big part on how Yen Mah turned out in her later and earlier years as well as everywhere in between. Her grandfather Ye-Ye was a constant support to Adeline Yen Mah. In the book Chinese Cinderella it is apparent that Niang has had a positive and

strong arguments for the pressing necessity of a mandated paid maternity leave. Nevertheless, the many opponents of this initiative are arguing otherwise. One argument against a paid maternity leave is based on the assumption that one of the parents should not be working in the first place. In other words, a full-time stay-at-home parent is beneficial to the development of the child and therefore a paid limited-time maternity leave is redundant and is simply a waste of resources.

The prevalence of Hegelianism in Walt Whitman’s “Song of Myself” is indisputable, yet a consensus on the meaning remains elusive, and therefore, insidious to the democratic progress Whitman attempts. Whitman uses Hegel to support his ideas about the dialectical theory of consciousness, the spiritualization and importance of art, and America’s manifest destiny. I later elucidate on these categories and break them down into more precise ideas. I use a variety of scholars for evidence of structural
