Abstract
This paper shows how both the movies, "On the beach and Testament", deal with the dangers of a nuclear war. It explains that both the movies do not present any horror events, and there are no scenes of mass devastation or explosions in either of the movies. It states that the movies are, instead, presented through relationships and seen through the eyes of the characters and from the personality and expressions of the characters. How human beings deal with the aftermath of a nuclear war is presented in both the movies.

From the Paper
"The movie "On the Beach" was based on the best-selling novel written by Nevil Shute, which was once called the most important movie of our times. The plot is based on a future event, which happens in 1964. As a result of a nuclear war, the Northern Hemisphere is completely wiped out. The story is the result of the interaction, which takes place among the characters of the story, which takes place after the disaster in the northern hemisphere. Since the radiation spreads to all parts to the world, they understand that only Australia is safe from radiation and so those who are alive should migrate to Australia before the radiation takes place. But after reaching there they understand that they will also be infected and would die, which would take only within a short span of time. The country waits for the winds, which will carry the fallout of radiation and would ultimately kill them also. (www.reel.com/movie)"

From the Paper
"Echo Park Lake has always had a special place in my heart, maybe more so now as I grow a little older than it did when I was a child. Today, gazing upon the lotus plants, the palm trees, the skyline of downtown Los Angeles in the background, I am reminded of something that happened to me when I was very young - something that changed the way in which I look at life and at people as a whole. I was six years old when I met "Sam," an elderly gentleman who often sat at one of the park benches and just seemed content to throw crumbs to the..."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the theme of Royall Tyler's play "The Contrast."

From the Paper
"Royall Tyler's play "The Contrast" was the first performed American play and as such its theme is distinctly American. At a time when the country was struggling to carve out a national identity, Tyler articulated what American character truly was and why the nation could be proud of its distinct culture. By utilizing the genre of comedy and satire he was able to point out the pretentiousness of the European lifestyle, while illustrating the superiority of America's more simple ways."

Abstract
The paper relates that Charles Dickens's novel "Hard Times" is essentially a novel about ideas, played out in the lives of the Gradgrind family. The paper discusses how the fundamental idea that is explored is the stark contrast between two very different value systems: on the one hand, the then modern practice of placing value in rationalism and utilitarianism; on the other hand, the more traditional and humane practice of placing the highest value in imagination and sentiment. The paper analyzes how the novel makes repeated use of contrast, in metaphors and imagery, to illuminate and underline this fundamental contrast.

Abstract
This paper discusses the themes of contrasts, of honor and deceit, spinsterhood or bachelorhood and marriage and honor and betrayal that are found in William Shakespeare's plays "The Taming of the Shrew" and "Much Ado About Nothing." The paper focuses on the main contrast of character type in both texts which is achieved by pairing two contrasting sets of lovers against one another. It discusses the articulate love of the couples of Petruchio and Kate in "The Taming of the Shrew" and Beatrice and Benedict in "Much Ado About Nothing."

From the Paper
"Shakespeare suggests that all relationships are to some extent dependant upon mendacity. However, the question is how harmless these lies might be. The greater lie is in fact Claudio's perception of Hero as perfect, not the fact that Beatrice has not been dying of love for Benedict. In fact, as the audience is well aware if not the lovers themselves, Beatrice and Benedict are ideally suited for one another. They alone speak the same language of all the characters in the play, a dialogue of witty repartee. When engaged in dialogue with other characters, quite often the other characters are overcome by their wit, like Don Pedro when he attempts to woo Beatrice, and Claudio when Benedict expresses his dim view of love at the beginning of the play. In "The Taming of the Shrew," until she meets Petruchio, Kate is utterly dominant over her father and her sister. Only by finding a man who can match her barb for barb is she re-integrated into the society, just as Benedict is not reintegrated into peacetime society after war, until he finds a match in Beatrice."

Abstract
The paper compares Bruce Catton's work, "Grant and Lee: A Study in Contrasts" and Russel Baker's essay, "A Nice Place to Visit" and asserts that both follow the comparison and contrast format of writing exceptionally well. The paper explains that where Catton seeks to impart his clearly defined passion and excitement for his subject, Baker wants us to share in his sarcastic assessment of Toronto as being clean and polite and thus boring. The paper posits that both works succeed in engaging the reader, although Baker's assessment has a problem that it requires the reader to take his side.

From the Paper
"Comparison and contrast essays serve a very distinct point - to show the differences and similiarities between individuals, groups, places, songs, etc. Within the structure of these essays, we find that there are two major methods of comparison: the subject-by-subject and the point-by-point. Within these two methods are also several different styles that authors employ. Bruce Catton's work, "Grant and Lee: A Study in Contrasts" takes a very serious and well balanced look at the two primary military generals of the U.S. Civil war."

Abstract
In this comparative review, the author looks at two prominent books written about the Holocaust, "Survival in Auschwitz: The Nazi Assault on Humanity" by Primo Levi and "A Scrap of Time and Other Stories" by Ida Fink. The paper starts with a brief but poignant history of the Holocaust and the attitudes to it. The author then proceeds to look at the two books which in his opinion offer opportunities for interesting contrasts. He highlights how Levi has written a factual account of his personal experiences towards the end of the war whereas Fink is considered to have written a fiction story which covers the whole period of the war even though she was also subjected to the horrors of the war. The author concludes that even though both books are categorized differently they both tell the same horrific story of man's inhumanity to man and neither book will let you shrug.

From the Paper
"Though both books describe events that revile even the most stoic among us, the two authors seem to emphasize different aspects of the experiences described. Levi's work is essentially a success story. Will and grit, and a little luck, lead to his survival. As the author remarks, "Man's capacity to dig himself in, to secrete a shell, to build around himself a tenuous barrier of defence [sic], even in apparently desperate circumstances, is astonishing and merits a serious study" (56). Fink's book reports few successes. Parents sacrifice children, friends turn on friends, individuals are forced to face and embrace their darkest selves. Though both authors tell chilling tales, Levi
seems to offer more hope, while Fink leaves the reader with feelings of deep despair."
