Abstract
This paper discusses the Prophet Daniel?s vision of 70 Weeks through interpretations, theories, views, and fulfillments, including the references to Christ and the tribulations that were experienced. With all of the critical prophecies credited to him, the paper provides insights into who Daniel was and why he felt he needed to share his wisdom. The concern for historians regarding Daniel?s work revolves around the fact that there are numerous problems confirming or even explaining some of the prophetical meanings of his passages.
From the Paper
"The name Daniel in Hebrew means God is my Judge. Daniel was one of the most important of the prophets from the Old Testament. But his prophecies also carried over into the New Testament since much of the prophecy done by Daniel correspond with the apostle John and his work in the Book of Revelation. Daniel?s acclaim and importance to the ancient Christian movement can be demonstrated by the fact that Jesus specifically referred to events from the Book of Daniel that were expected to happen prior to His return. Modern day religious scholars believe that Daniel was born a noble and maybe even an actual member of the royal family of Judah. ?Daniel thereafter held a very high position in the government for about 70 years, the actual ruler of what is modern-day Iraq, right until his famous "handwriting on the wall" interpretation on the night before the fall of the Babylonian kingdom to Darius the Mede (Daniel 5:1-29).? (KeyWay, 2004)"

From the Paper
"This study will provide a review of The Machine That Changed the World, by James P. Womack, Daniel T. Jones, and Daniel Roos. The analysis will be based on three standards or criteria for measuring the book and its success: Is the book important? Is the presentation of the book such that a reader --- whether interested originally in the subject or not---would generally find the book interesting? and Does the book succeed in doing what the authors set out to have it do?
The thrust of the report will be that, yes, the book succeeds on all three points of evaluation.
Is the book important? In other words, will it make some difference in the life of the reader in the way he sees the world, or will it make some difference in the world itself? Is it merely entertainment? Is it so speculative that it is nothing ..."

"Among the many serious problems facing American society today is the need to deliver effective educational services to an increasingly diverse population of students, both in terms of cultural and ethnic background as well as their levels of learning abilities. In an effort to "mainstream" as many learning disabled and minority children as possible into American classrooms, educators have been faced with a wide range of challenges and obstacles to providing this equitable distribution of educational services in a meaningful way. One of the major problems facing educators at all levels is students' ability to read in the first place. Without the ability to read efficiently, students are unable to achieve academic proficiency in almost any subject area without significant tutorial assistance and even then, the chances of success are not as great as if a child has already acquired the ability to read efficiently before entering the classroom."

Defoe's Vision of Society and Civilization, 2001.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper is a review of Daniel Defoe's novels "Robinson Crusoe" and "Moll Flanders". The paper specifically discusses to what extent these novels represent a microcosm of the world of Defoe. The paper follows a tendency toward the poststructuralist method of deconstruction, which seeks to unlock a reflection of the text by exposing its counter side, and therefore showing what the work of Defoe, can tell us about the past.
From the Paper
"Before an attempt can be made to construct any critical theory regarding Defoe's vision of society and civilisation, it is necessary to put into context the corridors of thought which may lead to its interpretation. The idea that a response to a work is the same as its meaning demands the question: Can a work can have as many meanings as we have responses?"

Age-Related Vision Loss, 2007.
This paper discusses the issue of the loss of vision and focuses on ages-related vision loss.

Abstract
In this article the writer discusses the possible causes of age-related vision loss. The writer looks into the matter of possible treatment for such kind of vision loss. Further the writer examines how vision loss may affect the person, physically, emotionally, intellectually and/or psychologically. The writer concludes that the effect of age-related vision loss is highly dependent on how the person accepts the severity of his or her case. For those who can accept it positively, they will then subject themselves for various treatments thereby minimizing the negative impact of vision loss. However, the writer points out that for those who may find it very hard to accept the fact that they are actually having difficulty to see things clearly, they would have the tendency not to seek any help or treatment from the registered medical professionals. This in turn would heighten the negative impact of their vision loss. This paper includes diagrams of statistics.

From the Paper
"Vision impairment is defined as the vision that is 20/40 or worse in the better eye even with glasses. In America, more or less 6.5 million people who have reached the age of 55 are suffering from blindness or severe vision loss. Further, it was also found out that one in every six people who reached the age of 65 and one in every three who reached 85 and above years old are having problems with some degree of vision loss. These numbers are continuously rising as the years go by. Indeed, age-related eye diseases are found to be the most common cause of blindness and vision impairment."

Samuel Daniel's "Delia", 2002.
Discusses audience and imagery in Samuel Daniel's 'Sonnet III' from "Delia" and argues against C.S. Lewis who dismisses Daniel's work.

Abstract
C.S. Lewis, in "English Literature in the Sixteenth Century", dismissed Daniel's "Delia" on the grounds that: "It offers no ideas, no psychology, and of course no story: it is simply a masterpiece of phrasing and melody" (Lewis 491). Samuel Daniel's sonnet sequence, "Delia" (1592), is undeniably remarkable for its phrasing and melody. However, one can take issue with Lewis' depiction of Daniel's achievement. This essay will argue that, contrary to Lewis' statement, Daniel's "Delia" reveals a complex level of interlocking patterns of thematic ideas and imagery. One cannot assert broad generalizations about a poet's entire work, much less the poetic production of an entire era, from the textual analysis of a single work. Includes annotated bibliography.

Sembene's and Mandela's Vision, 2002.
Compares and contrasts Ousmane Sembene's and Nelson Mandela's visions of a postcolonial Africa and argues that Mandela's vision is more realistic and realizable.

Abstract
Ousmane Sembene and Nelson Mandela offer two visions of postcolonial Africa. Mandela envisions the future as promising and sees the possibility of cooperation between former oppressors and victims. He sees the struggle through the lens of the individual and envisions humanity as frail and yet filled with courage. He is optimistic and forgiving. Sembene is not as forgiving and his vision is one more of protest. He does not see the possibility of cooperation and envisions the struggle through the lens of the collective, rather than through the individual. Overall, Mandela has the more realizable vision, because it is more tuned into the real world and understanding of human nature. There cannot be perfection and a society must ultimately try to reconcile its differences.

"The Book of Daniel", 2002.
Explains how author E.L. Doctorow uses events from history to write his novel, "The Book of Daniel".

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
E.L. Doctorow has always been a writer who juxtaposes fictional events with historical ones. "The Book of Daniel" is no exception. While the character of Daniel is fictional, the events depicted--a thinly disguised version of the Julius and Ethel Rosenberg trial, the communist scare fanned by Senator McCarthy, the Viet Nam War--are all rooted in history. Daniel's journey then is both historical and personal, ricocheting between the past and the present as he attempts to find meaning in the events of his own life and those of his culture. "The Book of Daniel" is like its Biblical counterpart, part lamentation and part exhortation. History is a catalogue of a "time of trouble" in which some figures of the past will awake to 'everlasting contempt' while others turn to righteousness. Daniel struggles with both, an inherited past and an uncertain future. In the end, however, he finds his way.

Vision in Hinduism, 2008.
An analysis of the role of vision in Hinduism.
2,504 words (approx. 10.0 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 76.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that, in contrast to Western traditions where the transmission of sacred wisdom has been embodied within texts, the sacred world of Hinduism has interpreted images as "visual texts". The paper further suggests that, in Hinduism, it would be more accurate to say that vision is the intertwining of sensory perceptions, allowing a Hindu worshipper to become completely immersed both visually and emotionally in the presence of the divine. The paper goes on to discuss the importance of vision in Hinduism and concludes that to reduce vision to a Western conception of vision is to fail to look at reality from the eyes of a Hindu.
From the Paper
"According to Hindu mythology, it is the ever-watching eyes of the gods that allow the world's existence to continue. In one myth, Parvati, the female companion of Shiva, playfully covers his eyes, leaving the whole world encompassed in darkness (Eck 1). Another tale, this one describing the Mother Goddess, tells of how the world is dissolved or created based on whether her eyes are open (Clooney 97). Fortunately for existence, the Goddess never closes her eyes. Vision is sacred. Hindu worshippers placed before an image of a deity; hope to gain the darsan of the deity. Darsan literally translates as "seeing." (Eck 3). It can also be translated as an "auspicious sight." (Eck 3). "

Feminist Visions, 2003.
Discusses the feminist vision in literature within the context of "Jane Eyre", by Charlotte Bronte, and "Wide Sargasso Sea", by Jean Rhys.

Abstract
Jean Rhys extends far past Charlotte Bronte's limitations, not only in the feminist vision, but also in her opinions of the post-colonial experience. Through "Jane Eyre", Bronte has a feminist vision, but in the 19th century, she was unable to view some of her patriarchal constraints. Jean Rhys, in "Wide Sargasso Sea", pulls back and stands apart, making her able to pick up where Bronte and other feminist writers have left off, and gives the readers a clear, uncensored vision. This paper states how Bronte is able to undermine part of her patriarchal constraints, but ends up falling short of her goal. It also shows how Rhys, who picks up the same storyline as Bronte, is able to overcome that patriarchy and truly have feminist visions.
From the Paper
"Rhys, now, takes up the feminist torch from Bronte and runs with it. Woolf seems surprised in A Room of One?s Own when a female author remarks that one woman likes another woman (82). Females always seem to be portrayed in relation to a man, but in Woolf?s instance it?s a woman-woman relationship. Rhys accomplishes multiple relationships between Antoinette and various female, and male, characters. It could be argued that the main relationship observed is Antoinette and Rochester?s, however I believe that she delves much deeper in female relations than Bronte achieves."

Abstract
The paper examines the book of Daniel, and explains how the Lord's power is exhibited as He gives awesome insight into the future, protects His followers in fatal situations, and illustrates the end of time. The paper discusses the basic storyline and describes the various miracles and events witnessed and lived through by Daniel and his friends. The paper concludes that the book of Daniel offers insight to questions of omnipotence and the final judgment. The author adds that in his /her opinion, it is easier to believe in a higher being than existing on earth questioning life and its purpose.
From the Paper
"The definition for all-powerful is possessing unlimited authority or power. Other words used to define all-powerful include: omnipotent, invincible, supreme, and almighty. The Lord of the Jewish and Christian faith uses these words in reference to their God. The Hebrew Bible contains writings of a prophet during the Babylonian exile. "The God of Daniel is the omnipotent Lord who controls history, setting up and removing earthly rulers and empires, but also rescuing his people from the power of those kings and teaching them the limits of their sovereignty. (Davies 565)" In the book of Daniel, the Lord's power is exhibited as he gives awesome insight into the future (via visions/interpretations), protects his followers in fatal situations, and illustrates the end of time."

"Delia" by Samuel Daniel, 2001.
This paper discusses the importance of Samuel Daniel?s "Delia" through its structure and the creation of the modern sonnet.

Abstract
This paper discusses the importance of Samuel Daniel?s "Delia" through its structure and the creation of the modern sonnet. The author explores Daniel's influences including Sir Philip Sidney and Shakespeare, and his use of the Petrarchan writing mechanisms. Further this paper examines the significance of the sonnet to the English Renaissance and European poetry.
From the paper:
"Samuel Daniel?s Delia presents to the modern reader a nearly perfect mechanism through which to contemplate the structure of the sonnet in English as it first came to be incorporated into the common practice of this language. His use of Petrarchan forms and metrical traditions demonstrates that the sonnet when it first entered into wide use in the Renaissance was indeed a direct carry-over from the Italian, a mimicking by English writers of the Italianate structure of neoclassicism, a harkening back to Rome and so to Athens."
