Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that Hennessy currently targets young African-American men. The writer points out that a smaller aspect of the campaign is targeted at young African-American women. In both cases, the target audience is urban and professional. The writer maintains that the lynch pins of this campaign are the successful hip-hop performers who have taken a liking to cognac. This essay examines the means by which Hennessy has created a desire for their products among young, urban, African-American professionals.
From the Paper
"This being the case, the campaign's style has kept close to what is already seen among the self-made performers: photo spreads of carefully groomed, well-heeled African-American men. The pictures are distinctly glamorous, sometimes even iconic, yet always masculine, as whisky is a traditionally male drink and hip-hop is a male-dominated form of music. The masculinity of the photos is always balanced with requisite elegance.
"This is because the hip-hop artists who have been popularizing Hennessy's products have become more and more interested in elegance since they hit the big time. Compare Snoop Dogg's original gangster/jock look from the time his became mainstream viewing."

Abstract
This review looks at how Spencer Ante in the article entitled, "The Science of Desire," explains the way that companies use scientific approaches to create a desire for the products they sell. It explains that Ante has a discussion in his article about how Sirius Radio used a group of social scientists to "shadow" consumers and learn about their radio preferences. It also explains how Ante describes how companies use ethnographers to develop products for different cultural groups. At the end of the article, the author offers a personal opinion regarding his/her amusement at the lengths that companies go to obtain customer information.
From the Paper
"Ever since there has been the concept of ownership, there has also been the concept of selling the goods owned. Depending on the period of cultural development and the abundance (or lack) of various resources, the selling of goods and services has grown and diminished in importance. In today's United States and Western culture in general, few things could be considered more important from political and socio-economic viewpoint--our entire society is built on the notion that companies can continue to make profits by selling things to consumers. When consumers stop buying, or when companies are unable to meet other financial obligations and can no longer sell, many other parts of society are threatened with collapse. This is one (admittedly oversimplified) explanation of the current economic meltdown."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the central role of fear and desire in Bram Stoker's 19th century novel "Dracula." According to the paper, Stoker was examining the fear of sexual desire that was so pervasive in Victorian England. The paper concludes by stating that Stoker was intent upon demonstrating through the theme, plot, characterization, and ultimate outcome of the novel that sexual desire, especially in women, was inherently dangerous, destructive, and had to be repressed for the good of society.

Abstract

The paper examines the poetry elements that are diction and tone, sensory imagery, figures of speech, sound and rhyme, and irony. The paper explains that Molly Peacock uses these elements to successfully define the meaning of desire.
From the Paper

Abstract
This paper discusses two of the main characters in the Tennessee William's drama "A Streetcar Named Desire". This paper also discusses some of the sources available reviewing this play. The sources used provide excellent insight into the study of "Streetcar Named Desire" and into the playwright himself. The paper also reviews some of William's other works.
From the Paper
"'A Streetcar Named Desire' by Tennessee Williams has an interesting title that first attracted me to his play. After reading the first few lines, I found myself interested because the description of the setting had details that captured my attention further. Williams uses words such as "raffish charm" (Williams 1797) and "quaintly ornamented gables" (Williams 1797) that paint a picture of the section of New Orleans where the action starts. The action of the characters led to questions in my mind after I finished reading the play. This play raised many questions about the human spirit and the ways that people deal with situations that they face. The two sisters in the play, Blanche and Stella, were raised in similar circumstances. Why did these two sisters deal with life in ways that are so different? The relationship between Stella and her husband also presents important questions."

From the Paper
"Bathing and drunkenness are two common threads exposing sexual tension in the play A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams. Even the title of the play suggests the sexual tension between the characters. There are three main characters in the play: Blanche, Stella and Stanley. All three are driven by their sexual desire. Blanche is running away from her past that is filled with sexual promiscuity including a sexual relationship with one of her male students. Stella is so attracted to Stanley physically that she loses all perspective regarding her sister and her marriage. Stanley is a dockworker so filled with sexual prowess that...."

Abstract
Williams's play, "A Streetcar Named Desire," is the story of the final decay of Blanche DuBois, a woman who fell from grace until finally losing her mind. This paper focuses on Blanche's lies and how Williams symbolized them in several different ways, including the use of light. It shows how, throughout the entire play, Tennessee Williams uses light to symbolize Blanche's deceptions as they differentiate from the actual truth that is slowly revealed.
From the Paper
"A Streetcar Named Desire is a great play, where Tennessee Williams uses many different types of symbols and metaphors for other things in the play, and his usage of light to show Blanche DuBois' artificial realism was incredible. The way that each event in the story where Blanche was involved directly with lighting led up to a later important event in the story keeps the reader interested. Blanche's lies were eventually her undoing, if she had gone to visit her sister and been able to stand in the open light and face the truth about her life, she may have been married to Mitch. However she was scared of what she would see if stayed in the light, and more scared of what other people would see in her, so she hid in the metaphorical shadows created by Tennessee Williams and tried, unsuccessfully, to live in her false reality."
