Abstract
This paper analyzes the style and content of Emily Dickinson's love poem "I Can Not Live Without You". The paper shows that by using short stanzas, Dickinson explores her thoughts on love and death and combines the two as she takes us with her in her innermost thoughts and emotions.

From the Paper
"As we read the poem, we begin to notice Dickinson's change from "love" to "death" and she refers us to imagery that is related to emotions and to physical aspects of death. She has us being reminded of the coldness of both death and a life without love, when she states: "And I, could I stand by and see you freeze without my right of frost, Death's privilege"? (16-20). Dickinson uses the senses in relaying her emotions to the reader."

From the Paper
"The purpose of this research is to examine I Can I Will by Frederick G. Elias. The plan of the research will be to set forth the pattern of ideas in the book and then to discuss how the ideas are developed and how they build to a prescription for seizing and maintaining control of life experience.

IC is a book that must be classified as a self-help manual with an orientation toward both material and psychological success. Indeed, it is not too much to say that the overriding objective of the book is to formulate a plan for what could be called self-actualization. That is because of the action orientation of the text, which offers specific advice about how to achieve personal power and to apply the feelings of power to the project of achieving specific goals. Elias frames this advice in terms of imputing creativity and potential to the reader with a.."

Abstract
The writer relates that overall he is happy with himself as an individual, but there is room for improvement in three particular areas. The first issue the writer addresses is the level of seriousness with which he conducts himself in class, then he relates the need to listen to his parents advice and finally, the writer believes that he should try to lower his stress level and replace it with a calm sense of duty and adherence to requirements. The writer details how these changes will improve his life.

From the Paper
"When looking within myself and asking the question, what would I change about myself, if I could, and why, brings three main instances to mind. Change is an essential element of life, and in light of this considering that which may be improved is of direct benefit to myself, and will help me overall as a person. While the changes are not monumental, as I am for the most part happy with myself, these three areas leave particular room for improvement, which if I take an active approach and do something about it, may help to improve my life from a variety of angles."

Abstract
This paper consists of three separate essays--the first reviewing five articles on Elizabeth I, the second reviewing five web sites on Elizabeth I, and the third a research paper on her and her life, leadership style, and impact on society.

From the Paper
"Writer Susan Doran examines the queen's position as a female monarch in a male-dominated world, explaining how Elizabeth met the challenges. Elizabeth was an independent leader whose male advisers were frustrated by her refusal to take their advice as well as her habit of refusing to be proactive or pinned down to a particular line of action, an apparent indecisiveness that the author attributes to flexibility that always left open the possibility that she might rethink her position..."

Abstract
The paper explains how World War I released destructive energies that would plague the world for the duration of the 20th century. The paper includes the argument that some positive transformations, particularly intellectual and social, also resulted.

From the Paper
"World War I, billed "The War to End all Wars," turned out to be anything but that. Of the million estimated troops mobilized by the Central and Allied troops, half of these had been either killed or wounded. Called by diplomat and historian George Keenan, "the seminal catastrophe of the twentieth century," the Great War would in the wake of this unprecedented carnage, forever alter the socio-cultural composition of American and European society."

Abstract
Desperate for anything that might lower the high rate of juvenile crime in the United States, researchers have begun examining the link between self-esteem education and juvenile crime rates. This paper shows how many schools have turned to self-esteem theory, which professes that teaching children to feel good about themselves will help them make moral decisions, which, in turn, can keep them from crime. The paper examines several programs, such as STARS and Project HYDRA, and explores their effectiveness.

From the Paper
"As early as 1975, research began to emerge as to the link between self-esteem and crime. Howard Kaplan (1975) conducted extensive research into the causes of violence, in a study of 7th graders, and concluded that self-esteem is a main factor in crime and violence (Kaplan, 1975). A study by Thomas Kelley in 1978 reported a direct correlation between juvenile crime and low self-esteem. Kelly found evidence of a link between increased self-esteem and a reduction of delinquent behavior. He found that if programs were implemented to raise self-esteem, the incidence of juvenile crime was reduced (Kelly, 1978)."
