247 Words1 Pages
If one takes the time to research giraffes and the white rhinoceros they will find that they are unique in their own ways, but share similar characteristics and other features. It starts simply with both organisms having the domain of being a eukaryote, meaning that their cells have a nuclei. Both creatures are part of the Kingdom Animalia, meaning that they are animals which are multicellular and heterotrophic organisms. The giraffe and white rhino are both sorted in the phylum Chordate, this means that they consist of a notochord, dorsally situated central nervous system, and pharyngeal slits at some point at some stage in their development. The class of both giraffes and white rhinos is mammalia, which is the same thing as being a mammal.

Conjuring Compatibility Richard Wagamese’s Indian Horse and George Orwell’s 1984 display inherently similar themes despite differing vastly in context and story. Indian Horse by Richard Wagamese follows Saul Indian Horse on his journey of back-tracking into his past to heal himself. George Orwell’s 1984 follows Winston Smith, a man who struggles to cope with his desires to live freely in the totalitarian superstate of Oceania. Both Saul Indian Horse and Winston Smith use writing to survive in life, while authors, Richard Wagamese and George Orwell, use imagery to convey their protagonists’ emotional states to readers. However, the St. Jerome’s children in Indian Horse are innocent victims who suffer from threats, illness or suicide, whereas the children of 1984 are brainwashed government agents who carry out their government’s regime.

It’s a scene engraved into the western world’s collective memory: a pigtailed girl in red slippers, skipping along a yellow brick road with a scarecrow, a tin man, and a lion. This image, from the book “The Wizard of Oz” by L. Frank Baum and the 1939 film of the same name, represents the epic of the modern age. Whereas in ancient times, we had Gilgamesh or King Arthur as our gallant hero, now we have a little girl from a farm in Kansas. At first glance, this simple story of a young girl lost in a magic land could not compete with the great tales of old. However, this epic shares more than a few similarities with this seemingly childish

Ancient Roman society is full of culture and the riches of the past. With the Roman Empire being one of the largest in the world, and in history, the span of the past to focus on is wide.

If the Roman Empire was so powerful then why did so many of its own people die to the Roman games?

Is risking your own life just to beat someone in a contest, in order to marry them, a smart idea? Probably not, but that’s exactly what the men in the myth “Atalanta and Hippomenes” from Ovid’s Metamorphoses written in 8 CE do. In the story men compete against speedy Atalanta in a footrace in hopes of marrying her, but if they loose then they have to die. There are two English translations that are particularly note worthy, those are that of: Allen Mandelbaum, published in 1993, and Charles Martin, published in 2004. Who’s work best expresses the story of “Atlanta and Hippomenes” is truly hard to decipher, because Mandelbaum’s version is written in the simplest of words, making it really easy to understand, and Martin’s version gives more of an adventurous feel with his eccentric descriptions.

As stated in “Do elephants belong in zoos?”, zoos not only fund research on wild animals but also contribute to reducing the conflicts between them and people, for example, by planting crops that frighten elephants away and exploring the cases of poaching that could affect their mortality (Cohn 717). Moreover, most of the scientific matter on elephants such as facts about their communications, reproductive physiology and behavior were originally gathered on the ground of captive animals (Cohn 717). In his article, Borrell expresses the same opinion. He states that zoos serve as “a living museum” that help scientists to find necessary information on species for the research, and these facts can be used to prevent the extinction of the animals living in the wild (Borrell 9). Besides, zoos are crucial for raising money for conservation programs by giving people firsthand wildlife experience that increases interest in wild animals (Borrell 9).
