Abstract
Susan B. Anthony was a famous historical figure who fought hard for human equality. She believed in women's rights, as well as equal rights for African American slaves. This paper shows that, through touring the country to speak publicly, lobbying, petitioning, as well as writing for her newspaper, "The Revolution," Anthony helped to contribute to the passing of the 19th Amendment, as well as give a voice to those who were not being heard. The paper examines her life as a hard-working abolitionist, activist, and reformer whose courage and dedication can be credited for where women and African-Americans stand in today's society.
From the Paper
"Susan B. Anthony also fought hard for women's rights to property and equal wages. In New York State she spoke at meetings, collecting signatures for petitions and lobbying the state legislature. Largely due to her efforts, the state of New York passed the Married Women's Property Bill in 1860 which allowed married women to own property, keep their own wages, and have custody of their children. She spoke out against prostitution in Chicago in 1853 stating that women turned to the streets by prostituting for income because they could not receive equal wages in the workplace. She encouraged working women from the printing and sewing trades, who were excluded from men's trade unions, to form Workingwomen's Associations."

Abstract
This paper examines the women's rights movement and focuses on one of the founders, Susan B. Anthony. The paper explains that Anthony was in many ways the mother of the women's rights movement, and though she did not live to see universal suffrage in the United States, her work was crucial to the voice for change, not only in regard to the vote, but also for the view of women in the world.
From the Paper
"Susan B. Anthony was foundational member of the women's rights movement. Though the vote was the first of almost all essential changes in the way women were viewed socially and legally the vote was only the beginning. Susan B. Anthony possessed a much broader understanding of the needs of women and the changes that must take place for women to succeed in their own right in this new nation. She embodied the challenges faced by single women and also held great personal knowledge of the lives of her married contemporaries, as the sort of "aunt" to all the women of the movement, due to her remarkable openness she was the ear for many grievances against the reality of women's lives in her culture. English common law and the cannon laws of the church subjugated women almost completely to the will of the father, if unmarried and the will of the husband if married."

Abstract
This paper examines examples of operant conditioning in "A Clockwork Orange" by Anthony Burgess. The paper discusses those examples in terms of Burgess?s interpretations, as well as in relation to behavioral psychology as a whole. The paper presents Burgess's view of operant conditioning and behavioral psychology as a dangerous, deadly pursuit of sameness and control over mankind.
From the Paper
"First, it is important to discuss what is meant by conditioning. In the mid-twentieth century, psychologist B.F. Skinner, in the footsteps of such scientists as Pavlov and Watson, sought to examine ways to achieve the ideal society. According to Skinner, the way to achieve this was through the restriction of personal freedoms through behavior modification. This modification included the use of systematic rewards or punishments, and the use of those rewards and punishments with behavior association. As Skinner described, humans could be modified to act in specific ways by encouraging those behaviors through rewards. Conversely, humans could be just as easily manipulated away from given behaviors through the use of punishments. If the stimuli were presented consistently in association with any given behavior, Skinner theorized, those behaviors would become intertwined with the stimuli (Zimmer, 1999)."

Abstract
A look at Malay political culture from the perspectives of Anthony Milner. The author investigates the Malay political experiences, traditions and customs and analyzes these from the Milner's point of view that political relationships in Malay are based on leadership and support.
From the Paper
"Anthony Milner's central point in his examination of kerajaan is that the key to understanding political motivation must involve an understanding of differing political experience. European observers often saw political relationships in Malay societies as being based on accumulation and distribution of wealth, whereas to Milner the process had a deeper political motivation; to gain supporters."

In just a few moments however, he worries that his love will cause him to "lose [him]self in dotage" (Cohen, Howard, and Greenblatt I.ii.106) and then he is afraid that his wife had died because of him, and that this is just one ill befalling because of his "idleness." He has a hard time deciding whether to follow his passion, and stay with Cleopatra, or follow his duty, and return to Rome."
