1955.21441 An Analysis of the Social Role of the Hero in the Iliad by Homer
This paper will analyze the social role of the hero in Book 10 of the Iliad by Homer. By observing Hectors dialogue with Andromache, we can see why he presents a sometimes uncompassionate and cruel response to her pleas to not participate in the war. However, Hector shows a greater social responsibility in defending Troy and his family's honour. By protecting the city of Troy, he protects his wife and child, creating a moral and ethical reason for his 'heroic' stance to take part in the battle.

1956.21443 Graham Greene's The Quiet American: A Cautionary Tale
This 3-page undergraduate essay examines Graham Greene's The Quiet American as a cautionary tale. Using only Greene?s work as a source, this paper argues that Greene?s text is both a political and personal cautionary tale, especially through the narrator Fowler, as it suggests the corruption and death which can occur at the personal and political levels when politics and personal lives are allowed to conflate. This paper concludes that the text suggests that political tensions within an environment can make men withdraw into themselves and seek ways to deaden themselves to what is occurring around them. In Greene?s text, this withdrawal makes Fowler into three things. First, withdrawal makes Fowler into a mere reporter, a cynical observer of humanity who critiques rather than helps others. Secondly, withdrawal makes Fowler into an opium addict, as he risks physical disintegration in order to get away from his personal and political terrors. Finally, isolation may be a factor in making Fowler into a killer or at least a conspirator to murder, as Fowler eventually cannot isolate himself any longer. Greene?s text suggests that when political situations threaten men?s personal lives and ideals - as they do with Pyle, Fowler, Trouin, and others in the text - those men may make decisions which result in death and terror.

1957.21447 O Pioneers, by Willa Cather
From Disney?s unfortunate depiction of John Smith?s relationship with Pocahontas to the recent glorification of the Native American as the noble savage, the views of early American pioneers has changed from that of celebration to condemnation. However, Willa Cather?s novel, ?O Pioneers!?, takes a look at what it means to struggle with the land to tame it into a partnership and to survive the trials that come with settling new territory. Her epic saga, in turn, becomes a novel of celebration instead of condemnation and what it celebrates is America?s manifest destiny.

1958.21466 Milton's Theme of Social Critique
In both Paradise Lost and Comes, Milton uses dramatic technique as a way to show social dynamics. Both of the poems have dramatic dynamics but neither would be considered a drama by the standards of the day or by today?s standards. However, he uses Aristotelian principles of dramatic action to help make social commentary through these two poems. Overall, intent becomes a major focal point with favouritism being given to those characters with pure intentions. In the end, the social commentary in Comes is gentler and microcosmic as opposed to the larger sweeping epic of Paradise Lost.

1960.21529 Romanticism
When one sets out to define Romanticism one runs into the problem of its multiplicity. The more one defines, the broader the scope. Romanticism can be considered passionate, rebellious, emotional, relentless, sensual, aggressive, etc. One scholar actually tried to define it by simply labeling it as anything that rebels against the norm. However, the writers working during the movement, a movement that spawned in resistance to Classicism, defined the movement with their passion and zest for life.
