Daniel Quinn's "Ishmael" And Marvin Perry's "Western
Civilization: A Brief History": Comparing Perspectives
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Humankind's history has been filled with advancements; indeed, one can readily argue that since the very first time man realized he had the ability to formulate specific answers to problematic questions, he has been furthering the human race without so much as a reprieve. This unwavering progress has been recorded and taught in
every classroom of every school all over the world. It would never occur to anyone who has spent his or her entire life believing such teachings that there could be something incredibly wrong with the manner by which humanity has furthered its own species. This is precisely the point of Daniel Quinn's Ishmael, which effectively characterizes the origins of civilization as nothing short of disastrous for both the planet and other species alike. When compared with the likes of Marvin Perry's Western Civilization: A Brief History, it becomes quite clear how mankind demonstrated the damaging characteristics of individualism from the beginning.

Dante's "Inferno" And Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter": Comparison Of Punishment
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The element of punishment in Dante's Inferno as compared with and contrasted to Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter is made markedly different by virtue of their respective eras. That Dante's second circle places infidelity in such an inconsequential atmosphere speaks to the fact that he looked upon sexual pleasures as being interwoven with love, a very powerful entity that possessed a great deal of influence over the writer. Dante was significantly more forgiving of such indiscretions than the characters in Hawthorne's story, inasmuch as Minos takes pity upon a swirling mass of two souls who tell him of their true love for each other, admitting that this love was at the expense of another person. The townspeople in The Scarlet Letter, however, have no tolerance whatsoever with regard to infidelity and make their disapproval known in a considerably obvious and humiliating manner. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Dante's 9th Circle/A Contemporary Vision
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper that discusses Dante Alighieri's medieval masterpiece The Divine Comedy. The writer states that this poem is a profound statement on medieval theology, but is also a commentary by Dante on medieval society. These verses picture Dante, being led by the pagan poet Virgil, through Hell, Purgatory and Heaven. In Hell, i.e., The Inferno, Dante pictures meeting notorious sinners: some contemporary with his era; some from the past. This inspires the question of how the present day's most notorious compare to those whom Dante included in his epic poem. The writer discusses John Walker Lindh, Timothy McVeigh, Jeffrey Dahmer and the Unabomber in relation to where they would go in the Ninth Circle of Dante's vision of Hell. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
