Abstract This paper is a brief analysis of the importance of the duet "La ci darem la mano" from Mozart's opera "Don Giovanni." The paper focuses on the importance of the duet in terms of character and plot and how they are important to the rest of the opera, and how the scene ties in with the rest of the major plot developments of the opera. There is no discussion of the musical aspects of the opera.
From the Paper "The opera Don Giovanni, written by W.A. Mozart in 1787, has been hailed by some as the greatest opera ever written. It tells the story of a wealthy playboy, Don Giovanni, in his attempts to win the hearts and bodies of the young women around him. Don Giovanni's duet with Zerlina, called "La ci darem la mano," in the first act is an important piece in the opera, both in terms of character and plot development. The duet takes place in Don Giovanni's gardens, after we have already heard and seen some of Giovanni's malicious and murderous transgressions and heard the long list of his conquests read to Donna Elvira."
Abstract In this essay the writer examines the case of the duet whirlpool product which is a new washing machine intended to tap into the North American market. The paper looks at the consumer characteristics, product characteristics and, of course, advertising "ploys" which might enable the product to achieve the success its manufacturers desire. In the process, the paper also considers a pricing mechanism which might serve the product well in its initial foray into the market.
From the Paper "Identifying two of Maslow's needs which may apply to the purchase of a Duet is actually fairly straight-forward. First, a Duet whirlpool saves a great deal of money and that ties in with Maslow's "security" concept - that is to say, his belief that human beings desire security of revenues and resources. Obviously, if North Americans are using four times more water for every laundry load as their European counterparts are, that means a huge increase in energy bills - and onerous energy bills clearly tax the budget of most working-class families."
Abstract This paper looks at how the literary French artiste' Colette, in a duet of short stories, "Gigi" and "The Cat", is able to explain some of the sexual nuances that make the sexes behave as they do; perhaps bringing some insight into our own present day relationships.
From the paper:
"Light vs. Darkness, Muslim vs. Christian, North vs. South, Football vs. Oprah, conflicts such as these rage on in our 21st century society. Of all conflicts the one furthest from resolution and the most highly contested seems to be the age-old battle of male sexuality vs. female sexuality. What do the opposing "dramatis personae" desire? How do they propose to attain it? Are the variances between the sexes really as vast as we"ve been led to believe" Through exquisite prose and imagery, the literary French artiste? Colette, in a duet of short stories Gigi and The Cat, is able to explain some of the sexual nuances that make the sexes behave as they do; perhaps bringing some insight into our own present day relationships ."

Abstract This paper explains that traditionally an epithalamion was sung during the wedding ceremony as the bride was led to the bridegroom's home and was about to cross the threshold. The author points out that "Amoretti and Epithalamion" is a difficult poem because of Spenser's use of archaic language even for his day, which gives the poem an almost Biblical quality reminiscent of the descriptions and idealized imagery of the beloved similar to the "Song of Solomon". The paper concludes that, using images from nature and religion, Spenser has created a love poem that captures the nature of romantic love when everything about the beloved person is perfect and all the world agrees. The paper includes several quotations.
From the Paper ""Amoretti and Epithalamion" is considered a revival of the ancient Greek poetic tradition to create an epithalamion in honor of newlywed couples. The form was lost during the Roman conquest until Spenser revived it. "Amoretti and Epithalamion" is like a duet, with one voice responding to the other. The two poems represent the two lovers as they struggle to create a union despite the conventions of their times. A comparison of "Amoretti" and "Epithalamion" shows both similarities and differences, but in both, Spenser uses nature for imagery and as an extended metaphor to create a tone of mysticism in his descriptions of love."
