In the primary source, there is a tone of persuasive authority from Pope Urban II. He uses it to invoke a strong passion, but also fear of the Persians into the members of his audience.

In addition, the arrangement of his speech flows like a sermon which sets the tone for his authority.
Before 1890, America was against imperialism, which is acquiring colonies for the sole reason of building an empire. America was once a colony, so they were only interested in trade than colonization as they expanded into more territories. In 1867, Russia offered the Americas Alaska in exchange for seven million. President Andrew Johnson, at that time, wasn’t entirely convinced on taking Alaska, but Vice-President Seward convinced that the U.S. would gain not only more land, but new resources such as gold and oil.

It becomes clear how the Billy Collins emotionally feels about this control when he states, “ medieval theologians control the court.”, and “it is designed” (7)(8). Billy Collins is showing through the use of irony on how the church in being so structure and not allowing for individual thought, is truly barbaric in nature. Finally we can see another example of irony at the very end of stanza eight and nine. In which Billy Collins writes, “ the answer is simply one: one female angel dancing alone in her stocking feet, a small jazz combo working in the background.”, and “now it is very late” (8) (9).
As each character in Oates’ works deals with violence and loss in their lives, their experiences with their family and with their own alienation are vital to their discovery of their own definition of justice. While previous experiences with violence help characters decide how to avenge new violence, religion is the most formative in helping them decide if that vengeance is righteous. Even though fear may paralyze some characters from taking action against those who hurt them, it ultimately motivates them to take action, even if that action is not in the form of revenge.
Hippocrates was an Ancient Greek physician. He is commonly regarded as one of the most outstanding figures in medicine of all time and has been called the father of medicine. He was given this name because he introduced the naturalistic concept of disease. Hippocrates was the one who introduced that you got sick because your organs aeren't working properly, no spirits, no curses, no angry Gods have any link with that.

This perfect rhyme reflects on the equally perfect and satisfying feeling of being with the good which Mankind tries to stay true to. However in the second speech(line..) this full rhyme is destroyed showing the influence of the vices. The converse of the vices, contrastingly to Mankind’s perfect rhyme and sophisticated use of latin, use euphemisms, vulgarity, sarcasm, mockery which is accompanied with numerous types of rhyme schemes such as Nought’s use of near rhyme ‘warm’ and ‘harm’, reflecting their use of world play containing ridicule and mockery. These disspereate styles of dialogue help highlight what is meant to be good and bad and thus help us identify when Mankind is unknowingly tempted towards sin as his dialogue is altered.
The author of the Friar’s tale, is Geoffrey Chaucer and the poem is constructed of classist values, capitalism, the socioeconomic conditions of the proletariat and the bourgeois, and the organization of religion. The significance of the Friar’s Tale, is the plot and the grim behavior of the Summoner, as well as the evil that he commonly exhibited. In the poem, there are many marxists values, the biggest being classism and economic power. People in the church held higher power and often oppressed those in lowers socioeconomic status. For example, in the Friar’s Tale, the heated discussion between the widow and the Summoner, would have panned out much differently If the devil wasn’t present in that moment.
In lines 111 through 114 he criticizes fake affection, fake people in general. These are just some lines from the epic that Alexander Pope points out and criticized the British society and
Besides the author and the reader, there is the ‘I’ of the lyrical hero or of the fictitious storyteller and the ‘you’ or ‘thou’ of the alleged addressee of dramatic monologues, supplications and epistles. Empson said that: „The machinations of ambiguity are among the very roots of poetry”(Surdulescu, Stefanescu, 30). The ambiguous intellectual attitude deconstructs both the heroic commitement to a cause in tragedy and the didactic confinement to a class in comedy; its unstable allegiance permits Keats’s exemplary poet (the „camelion poet”, more of an ideal projection than a description of Keats actual practice) to derive equal delight conceiving a lago or an Imogen. This perplexing situation is achieved through a histrionic strategy of „showing how”, rather than „telling about it” (Stefanescu, 173 ).
