Views on Death: Thomas and Tolstoy
[ send me this report ]
A 4 page research paper that contrasts The Death of Ivan Ilych by Leo Tolstoy and Dylan Thomas' poem, 'Do not go gentle into that Good Night.'

While they appear to be dealing with two different viewpoints-the emotions felt by the person facing death and those felt by those who are left behind-they each offer valuable insight into what resistance to death can mean both to the dying and to their families.

“Natural Slaves” in Shakespeare’s “Tempest” and Aristotle’s “Politics”
[ send me this report ]
A five page paper looking at these two works in terms of their treatment of the concept of the “natural slave.” The paper concludes that if by “natural slave,” Aristotle meant that one’s fitness to rule or serve is based on one’s aristocratic or menial birth, Shakespeare would have disagreed with that. But he would have agreed that certain people just don’t make good leaders and would be better off in a supporting role. No additional sources.
