It appears that the masses were unable to acknowledge the full extent of their freedoms and preferred to stick to traditionalism instead. By doing this, they obliged themselves and those around them to act in agreement with absurd laws that were presumably meant to have them seem like model citizens. Veronica went further than most of these people and decided that it was best for her to do what she wanted. In contrast to her, Marco did not have the courage to disobey his family and married someone that he did not love. Thus, men were to a certain degree equal to women, given that they too had to conform to society's requirements. Marco is, in point of fact, mainly responsible for Veronica's situation, as he seduces her and then presents her with the cruel truth. This shows that he did not actually have honest feelings during their...

Money eventually seems to be one of the most important matters, both for Marco and for Veronica. Marco marries a woman he does not love because she is from the same social class as he is while Veronica decides to be a courtesan because she cannot imagine living life as a poor woman.
Even with the fact that the film's ending is somewhat "commercial," the concepts that it puts across make up for this "flaw."

Based on what is present in the essay, it seems as if you do not really have a problem finding beauty in the work of the Nazis, or benefiting from their atrocities, but rather maintained a false sense of ambivalence throughout the essay in order to make it more compelling. However, it also seems likely that you would attempt to maintain a distinction between finding your essay entertaining and finding

Beauty & Sadness in Japanese Literature A modernization of the story "An Account of a Ten Foot Square Hut" Many, many years ago, it is said that the Buddha went out into the world, seeking to free himself from his cloistered palace -- and saw sickness, old age, and death. Upon seeing this inevitable suffering, he resolved to free the world with his philosophy, and lead us all to Enlightenment. Although our

(54) In this message Shelley connects the universal idea that poetry, once

This is Aristotle's launching pad for his discussion of politics. To him, ethics and politics are matters of rational judgment, stemming from the natural inclinations of individual humans. This notion is reflected in Aristotle's analysis of the constitutional doctrines of some 158 cities. Essentially, he recognized that every state -- necessarily city states -- exist in unique sets of circumstances that act upon the universal forms of ethics in ways
