Realism

1. The Story of an Hour is an example of realism because its not setting the tone of imagination but of something that is real. Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with a heart trouble and it didn't make it all to good when her husband died. She wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, in her sister's arms.this story shows what goes on for real about the terrible accident and then the death of Mrs. Mallard when she noticed that he wasn't dead because of her heart couldn't take it.

2. In this story Fredrick Dougalas is telling the readers the real thing in whinch that happend to him as a slave and others that were tammed to be broken. His master Mr. Covey made them work in all types of weather no mater what. it could never rain too much, hail to hard, or snow to much. Again this may not be somthing that the people back then wanted to hear nor some people of the present but its the truth and real.






3. Today's realism movie would be a Menace II Society and Boyz in tha Hood. These movies let you know what is really going on around the world in the places that the government don't really care about. In these movies they give you all of the facts about what they are going through in places like the hood or projects. It might not be what some people want to see but it is real. The stuff actually going on in those movies are examples of whats going on in the real world. When the men pulled up on Kane and his cousin Harald and shot and killed him for his car. Stuff like that is really happening.

Dark Romantilism

1.I am closer to transcendentalist because they see things in a better way. They believe that every one was pure and had a little peace of god in them, but the dark romantics are more into death and a more darker side.

2. The Masque of the Red Death was about a evil disease that spreaded through a country and killed massive amounts of the people. The the prince tries to save the few who didn't die in side his castle. It turns out that he was killing everyone that he ends up saving because of his evil thoughts. The dark romantics disagree with the transcendentalist because they didn't think that everyone was pure and had a little bit of god in them. They thought that if god was living through people then why do people have evil thoughts and do evil things.
"Now was acknowledged the presence of the Red Death. He had came like a thief in the night. And one by one dropped the revellers in the blood-bedewed halls of their revel, and died each in the despairing posture of his fall. This saying that the red death was acknowledged by the prince. He started to kill everyone in the party feeling like he was the Red Death.

3.This poem is talking about the raven it is the bird of death I guess thats what this poem is trying to say. Its the opposite of transcendentalist because its talking more and more about death and not anything about god living through people. This poem is also using imagination which the transcendentalist don't because they use there intution."That I scarce was sure I heard you"--here I opened wide the door--Darkness there and nothing more". This qoute is saying that death is upon him and he can see it but doesn't know what it is at the point.

My Education


To Whom It May Concern; Hello my name is Demetrius Edwards and after I graduate from high school I plan to continue on with my education. I want to at least get accepted into a junior college if not a university so I can be all that I want to become, and that is a business man. That’s always been my goal. It started when I was only seven years old, when I was playing softball and we had a fundraiser and I sold out quicker then everyone on the team. I’m going to tell more on why I choose this to be my future and why you should let me have a chance. Some people may ask why and say you graduated isn’t that enough of school.


The reason I want to continue with my education is because I want to become successful. My definition of success is to become my dream or goal so that whenever I want to do something or travel somewhere it will be no problem. After a couple of years in college I plan to major in business. It may seem like a hard subject to learn but every thing is possible when your mind is set for it. Creating a business is not the easiest thing to do because it takes steps just to startup a business plan and you also have to worry about the investment opportunity evaluation by investors for process and success rates.


I think that I would be well qualified for my choice. First, I do my best on trying to ensure someone that what I am doing can have strengths and weaknesses or/and opportunities and threats to my business plan. Second, I don’t try to focus on what only is going to happen with my plan in a couple of months or a year but for decades. I spend lots of time thinking and planning on what type of business I would one day try to put on the market hoping I get some investors interested in my company.


This letter is to assure you that I do have plans after high school and to make my goals come true when I do go to college. Motivation Is the key to what is pushing me so hard to graduate and continue my education to live my goal. Me owning my own business and becoming successful are my number on goals. I think you all who have taken your time to read my letter and hope that you enjoyed yourself.

Transcendentalism

1. The transcendentalist believed that god spoke through people's minds and there hard work. They also believed that all humans were pure and that even though Adam and Eve were sinners that this did not affect all. Transcendentalist also thought that people can communicate with god through nature and that society is distracting you from coming in contact with him. In the writing's they focus more on nature and becoming all you can be, that god will help you as an individual to become great. "Society everywhere is in conspiracy against manhood of everyone of its members", This is saying that society is a distraction to all humans and stops you from using your intuition.

2.From Nature is an example of transcendentalism because it says that god can speak to humans through nature. This story focuses on letting everyone know that you can actually relate to nature in you feelings and life." I become a transparent eyeball; I am nothing; the currents of the universal being circulate through me; I am part or parcel of god. This saying that he is in the wilderness and that his body is physically there but he's free as if though he is a bush, flower, or a tree,another part of nature.

3.From the Self Reliance is an example of transcendentalism because it's saying that speaks to people through there words or hard work. It's saying take pride in your work and do what you think is right and god will always help you. Whoso would be a man/woman must be a nonconformist. this means that everybody must have some difference in themselves and to follow your heart and intuition for that is only god speaking to you.
