Abstract
This paper examines the English Renaissance in terms of the reassessment of the classical heritage. It argues that the defining quality of the English Renaissance is in applying a critical approach to ancient learning as opposed to the fawning attitude of the Italians. Contained within this critical approach is a balancing of the old and the new, so that the new exemplars such as Petrarch, Dante, Aristo and Tasso are sometimes mentioned in the same breath as with the ancients. The paper illustrates this phenomenon through the works of the premier classicist of his age, Ben Jonson. Among these works "Volpone" is singled out for particular consideration. Special emphasis is laid on the characters Sir Politic and Lady Would with regard to how they portray typical attitudes of the English Renaissance.
From the Paper
"The play is essentially a farce, with an abundance of incidence, and with a plethora of unsavoury characters, practicing their wiles on each other and ending up in convoluted situations. There is an explicit and straightforward moral message in the end, because Volpone and all those who covet his wealth end up caught and punished by law. However, there are more subtle readings possible, which concern the conflict between the classical order and the emerging ethos of the times. The setting in Venice is the first significant detail. The city was viewed as the epicentre of the renaissance, and therefore a perfect backdrop in which to present the new fashions. A large number of the Elizabethan and Jacobean plays are set in the prosperous and mercantile cities of Italy, and with the same object of alluding to the emerging trends at home. Jonson is more ambitious, however, and therefore introduces the travelling nobles Sir Politic and Lady Would-be, who exemplify all the abuses of classicism that Jonson would highlight. "

Abstract
From the very beginning, people are distinguished, first and foremost, by their gender. To wit, when an infant boy or girl is brought home from the hospital, he or she is dressed in either blue (for boys) or pink (for girls). As they grow older, they are encouraged to act in certain ways and pursue certain things in accordance with their gender designation. Over the next few pages, three critical perceptual differences between the genders will be examined: firstly, women have always identified fiercely with their roles as mothers and wives (though maybe less so today than in the past); secondly, women and men view their physical appearances in very different ways - with men tending to be less concerned with cosmetics (possibly because they can afford to be) than are woman. Finally, women seem more susceptible to being influenced by our superficial, "looks-matter" culture; for men, looks are only one small part (if that) of how they define themselves. For women, things are often very different.

The February 26^th, 2008 City of Gardena Council Meeting: A Summary and Assessment Council meetings are important for many reasons. They help facilitate democracy and community knowledge of public policy on many levels, also giving the population of the city a platform on which to participate in civics and voice their views. On February 26^th, I had the privilege of witnessing a council meeting and its workings, firsthand. In my attendance at the City of Gardena Council meeting on February 26^th, I learned that, in relation to our class, there were both pertinent and inconsequential parts of the council meeting.

Abstract
The paper reveals that sexual crimes and offenses represent a serious problem in our nation today. The paper discusses how in dealing with burgeoning numbers of juvenile offenses, a growing body of legislation treats juvenile offenders as adults, while opponents of this approach contest that this harms and marginalizes the lives of many perpetrators who, in the vast majority of cases, do not grow up to become sex offenders. In touching upon this issue, the paper provides a summary of the article entitled "How Can You Distinguish a Budding Pedophile from a Kid with Real Boundary Problems?" Following a brief summary, the discussion concludes with comments concerning whether the writer agrees or disagrees with the author.

Abstract
The theory of occasional poetry put forward in this essay distinguishes occasional poetry from epideictic poetry on the basis that it differs from personal and meditative poems by its origin in a fact, event, or state of affairs rather than in a mood or state of mind. Occasional poetry marks an event or ceremony and speaks to an audience with shared social or cultural concerns. The hallmark of occasional poetry, unlike other epideictic poems, is that it speaks directly with a public rather than a personal voice.
From the Paper
"The first distinction between epideictic and occasional poetry is that events determine occasional poems. These events, real or memorialized, serve a social or public function beyond personal praise, panegyrics of great estates, dithyrambs of topographies, or impromptu musings. Nevertheless, merely a specific date and place are insufficient to qualify a poem as occasional, even though the poem seems to announce itself as an occasional poem. Wordsworth's poem "Composed Upon Westminster Bridge, September 3, 1802," (Allison 550) turns out to be a descriptive sonnet, an ecstatic recognition in the traditional voice of the lyric poet. Similarly, John Donne's poem "Goodfriday, 1613, Riding Westward" (Allison 219-20) turns out to be a highly metaphorical lyric of spiritual affirmation. The places and dates specified in the poems by Wordsworth and Donne are incidental to their purposes; both poems spring from an interior lyrical impulse."

Abstract
The paper shows how in "Death of a Salesman", playwright Arthur Miller places emphasis on the major theme of reality versus illusion and the confusion this engenders. The paper looks at the views of several commentators on this work to illustrate how the Loman family generally cannot distinguish between reality and dreams.
From the Paper
"In Death of a Salesman, playwright Arthur Miller places emphasis on the major theme of reality versus illusion to better demonstrate that the Loman family generally cannot distinguish between the two concepts, and that confusion will ultimately lead to Willy Loman's downfall.
"When it comes to Willy's ability to distinguish between reality and illusion, scholarly critic Irving Jacobson (American Literature) can clearly see - and writes what he believes about Willy with literary passion - why it might be difficult for this confused character to make that pivotal distinction."

Abstract
Summary: The repressed/false memory debate is marked by sharp polarities of what Loftus terms firm believers and skeptics who "point to the reconstructive nature of memory and ask for evidence and corroboration". The debate is far from theoretical since individual's reputations and futures are at stake. While the claims and arguments on both sides of the controversy will be discussed, the purpose here is to explore the nature of memory, repression and dissociation to determine if therapists can distinguish between true and false memories of childhood trauma.

Abstract
This paper explains that incidents of child abuse, in the form of physical, emotional, sexual and neglect abuse, continue to rise and can happen to any child of any race, gender and age. The author points out that physical child abuse consists of an injury inflected on a child other than by accidental means including bite marks, burns and poisoning; emotional child abuse is constantly blaming or putting down a child, excessive yelling or shaming. The paper relates that distinguishing accidents from abuse can cause problems in determining whether the injury is abuse; however, suspicion is underscored by the location of the injury, the number and frequency of injuries in different stages of healing, the size and shape of an injury and the explanation of how the injury occurred.

From the Paper
"How can adults help prevent child abuse and neglect? Friends can help out a parent under stress with a few hours of childcare or assistance with other chores. They can lend an ear to a parent or a child in crises, or they can support local programs that offer childcare, parent education, family counseling, and child safety. Caring, concerned individuals can "call a parental stress program for resources and support and reach out to those in need." If child abuse is suspected, wary adults should call the local Department of Family Services. DFS offers a parental stress help line for parents who feel overwhelmed with parental pressures and responsibilities."
