We all know that tragedy is not a good thing for us to happen. Do we really know the real meaning of tragedy? this word might made you think only on dead. Tragedy not only consist on blood but on the consequences this always brings. now this heappen very often in our world.
The news, not long time ago showed us the catastrophe of the huracane catrine and the collapse of the twin towers. they were called a tragedy not only because the USA losted a lot money. they were called a tragedy because many families passed through difficult times. this caused them to sufere constantly. This unfortunate events changed many people's lifes.
The story of Romeo and juliet was an excellent explanation of a true meaning of tragedy. a very strong feeling made this characters to be together even in their graves. For them to loose their own lifes was a symbol for their love. They only whished to be together. Their families were responsable to suferethe agony of tragedy.
So that you can see, tragedy is n0t only dead. Tragedyis also agony, sadnes and sufering. The meaning of tragedy could only be known to those who bhave love. If you do not love you will not have to deal with tragedy. I think we all know this word and the meaning already.

Edgar Allan Poe was a great poet who lived around the late 19th century. Many people have debated over his cause of death. Some say he died of rabies and others alcoholism. There is lots of evidence against and with both of these causes of death.The evidence of Edgar Allan Poe dying of rabies is very strong. He had a cat that he left back in the Bronx. Some say that’s a little suspicious. The evidence of him dying of alcoholism is strong to. Some of his relatives say that he was a very heavy drinker.
Booth of the causes of death is strong. But I think that the best cause of death for hem is rabies. Rabies because he had a cat and I guess he was scarred so he left him in the Bronx.

Romeo And Juliet

I will be writing about the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet.

First of all there is a lot of tragedy that happend in this, book but its worth reading because its a pretty good book even though its long.

First tragedy is that the Montigues and the Capulets hate each other and a lot of people die because of this hatred between the family.

Another tragedy is that Romeo meets Juliet and i think thats a tragedy because their family hates each other but they dont know that and that sucks for them.

Another tragedy is that theres a lot of people that are going to diefor example Romeo and Juliet and Lady Capulet

But before that Romeo and Juliet wants to get marred but Lady Capulet and Capulet wants Juliet to marry Paris but juliet doesnt want to cause she loves romeo.

i am doing the hero's journey for the Odyssey. i think this will get me the honors credit i want. as i will honor all 4 years of high school.

for the separation i will tell you then stages and events. The calling is when Agamemdon asks Ody to come help and fight with him. When he looks at his newly born child he realizes the threshold. when he departs from troy you have the descent.

now i will tell you about the initiation. I belive the abyss is when he is in the uncharted waters of the ocean or sea. His mentor is the god athena. By the end of the trip he has completly transformed into a great person.

The return is the final stage. He was created into a very wise and mature old man. Now he doesnt take anything for granite.

Hence, the heros journey for the odyssey was a great and strenous trip for odysseus and his man. we will never dorget the oddysey...

Rochelle Solonia - Final Exam Essay

There are a lot of theories about Edgar Allan Poe's death. The people studying about him are still unsure of how he died. Some say he died from alcohol poisoning ans some say it was rabies.

Dr. R. Michael Benitez thinks that Poe was slandered and was not drunk. From the way Poe was hallucinating and shouting out imaginery friends, he thought that it could have been rabies. After all that he seemed better, but the fourth dayafter he was found, Poe got angry and confused, then he calmed down and died.

the other other author Burton R. Pollin disagrees with Benitez. He says Benitez is wrong about Poe's death. He says that Benitez admitted he had no evidence of a scratch or bite for Poe's rabies theory. Another man, Dr. Joseph Snodgrass, aslso disagrees with Benitez. There was no proof that Poe wasn't drunk.

Benitez says he didn't admit of any scratches or bites on Poe. He said that it didn't really matter even if there was or wasn't proof because it isn't inconsistent with the diagnosis.

I would have to agree with Snodgrass and Pollin, but then again Benitez's theory could be possible. I think Poe probably didn't die from either drinking or rabies. He couldn've died from something else.
