August 5, 2013. StOttilien. 1. Why do people who are not "evil" take the first step into evil? What, for instance, is involved in taking that first step "down the primrose path to the everlasting bonfire" ( Macbeth , 2.3)? What are the consequences of the individual choosing evil (particularly the internal consequences)? Those who take that first step to being evil do so for selfish reasons that come with benefits to one's own desires. We often think why are people evil? What drove them to be the way that they are? The answer is that they all wanted something to benefit their own life. Being evil is not something people are born with. They become evil through their experiences and expectations. Taking the first steps to being evil involves a motivation, a goal, and no other way to reach that goal. For Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, the reason that they became evil and killed King Duncan was because the prophecy said that Macbeth would be the king and they...
Wing Young Huie - 2013 As we take a first glance at this photograph we are able to see an old blue car with a pink blanket over the windshield. This car is sitting next to what looks like the edge of a hill that goes down into a forest with many dying trees. The car is off and sitting on the edge of a dirt road with no other signs of life in sight. When taking a deeper look into this photograph we can infer that there are people in this car who are homeless but they put the blanket over the windshield to block out the sunlight while they attempt to sleep. This car looks like it is many years old and that it has been beat up quite a bit, making it even more apparent that these people do not have enough money to get by. I also am able to interpret this in a way that shows the car on the side of a dirt road with no one around to show that these people wanted to be alone and they went very far away from all other civilization. Through this photograph and Margaret Atwood's The...
Buzz in a Box - 2013 When taking a first glance at this advertisement we can see that it is from the Coca-Cola company, it is a picture of a Pepsi can with a Coca-Cola cape on it, it is set outside on a rock, and it says "Everybody wants to be a hero!" However, as we take a deeper look into this image we see that Pepsi released an advertisement against Coca-Cola with this exact same image, but the words on the ad said "We wish you a scary Halloween!" and this ad by Coca-Cola then came out as a reaction to Pepsi. This shows that there is a rivalry between Coca-Cola and Pepsi, and Coca-Cola believes that they are the better of the two brands. In reference to the seven deadly sins, this shows Pride because Coca-Cola is confident that they are better than their rival, Pepsi. The audience for this advertisement is soda drinkers because they want to get the message out that if they were to pick a brand to drink, they should pick Coca-Cola over Pepsi. This audienc...
