Man in the Mirror

Themes Themes are the fundamental and often universal ideas explored in a literary work. The Prison of Routine Restrictive routines and the repetitive, mundane details of everyday life mark the lives of Joyce’s Dubliners and trap them in circles of frustration, restraint, and violence. Routine affects characters who face difficult predicaments, but it also affects characters who have little open conflict in their lives. The young boy of “An Encounter” yearns for a respite from the rather innocent

Explore the presentation of the monster in ‘Frankenstein’ To a large degree, the novel ‘Frankenstein’ can be seen as a book of journeys. From the very opening we are introduced to Walton’s geographical ascent, as he pursues a land “never before imprinted by the foot of man.” As his boat ventured northwards, we are simultaneously introduced to Victor Frankenstein’s ‘meta-narrative’, which reveals his own intellectual journey into undiscovered territory. Certainly one journey reflects the other –

Natural Born Warrior In 1994, the Royal Shakespeare Company staged Coriolanus at Stratford with Toby Stephens playing the role of the eponymous hero[1]. Outside the theatre, huge posters showing Stephens’ bloodied face, bore the words, «He too was a natural born killer». This was an obvious publicity ploy to attract spectators by linking the production to Oliver Stone’s mass-audience film Natural Born Killers released earlier that year. More recently, Kate Bassett, in her Independent review[2]

SEXING THE CHERRY Plot : * 17th c England : alternative reality = historical facts + magical elements * The dog woman finds a little boy in the Thames (Jordan = river name travel connotation) * Alternance of narratives Dog woman / Jordan. Then Jordan leaves (mentally or physically we don’t know. He travels with John Tradescant = historically he was a traveler during the period = he gathered some “curiosities”) * Jordan is looking for a dancing girl (fortunata)

Coeur Louis Malle’s Le Souffle au Coeur (1971) is undoubtedly a provocative film. In it, an anarchistic adolescent not only satisfies the murkiest male fantasies imaginable but he actually does this while maintaining a remarkable degree of equanimity. It is a film in which the strictest Judeo-Christian ethos is repeatedly and deliberately transgressed, and what is even more amazing is that all is well at the end of it all. However, it is equally revealing to realize that Le Souffle au Coeur

(1788-1824) Lord Byron was born in London in 1788. His father left his family in a poor situation because he used to drink, smoke, play and have sex with other women. Byron’s mother was a libertine. She was mental and Byron grown up with a Calvinist governess. The boy was born with a clubfoot, he was a cripple and so he grown up with the idea that he was damned. His lameness made him feel inferior to other people and he was extremely sensitive about his deformity. In 1801 he went to school at Harrow

Bear in mind that I have edited together stage announcements and performances from various sources to give the most complete "build" of this material currently possible. Multiple sources have varying sound qualities, varying levels of hiss ect. I have chosen not to de-hiss much of the material as my personal preference is "purist" and because of the extremely variant opinions about hiss reduction techniques

the re-telling and re-writting are always a complicated things.And the question about the ethical is obvious.For example in journalism, the most common form of re-telling, there is a lot of rules. How objective can you be about a fact? Even if journalists try almost the times to be impartial, it's quite easy to understand that the informations about a same fact are different in the different country.That the poin of view are different.

General (Daft) Principles The overarching theme in all of Daft Punk's work is individualism over conformism. Their art deals with the influence of society (by mechanisms such as technology, the government, the market, modern culture in general and peer pressure) to reduce individuals to the lowest common denominator and make them all the same rather than encouraging them to be unique and different individuals. This theme is expressed throughout Daft Punk's work in many different forms, but it
