From the Paper
"Frances Temple, in the novel Taste of Salt, explores the oppression of two characters involved in the fight for justice in Haiti. As much as the story is about the struggle of Djo and Jeremie, it is also about the power of stories to change people and situations for the better. The novel may be about Haiti specifically, but it is a multicultural work in the sense that its power as an account of courage and faith cuts across all cultures, nations and nationalities. This study will focus on that courage and faith of the two heroes of the book insofar as their story and their strength offer hope to people of all cultures in their personal and political fight for justice and freedom.
Djo's story is told to Jeremie and her tape recorder at the behest of Father Jean-Bertrand Aristide, who is trying to oust ..."

From the Paper
"A comparison of competitive catering services reveals trends in private party formats, cuisine menus, theme and entertainment concepts. Competitive business can often provide valuable information to new and developing operations. Although competition wasn?t a major problem for the function operation because of the nature of this function- it is a university assessment. The consideration of the competition should not be ignored to help to maintain the function to be better and professional. Group 1 chose Chinese food and Group 2 chose Moroccan food. These 2 groups had exactly same location, facilities and support from the university teachers, and the 2 groups targets on the same customers- university students, lecturers, university staff, their own family and friends etc."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that the issue of religion and tolerance, like racism, has always been a contentious one in the United States. This is particularly true of the non-Western, non-mainstream religions, such as Hinduism and other Indian religious directions. The writer then looks at the Sri Venkateswara Temple, that is also known as the Balaji Mandir and which functions as both a Hindu Temple and a Cultural Society serving the Hindu people in the area. The writer concludes that the temple has provided a focus not only for the Hindu community in the area, but also for the education of Westerners in the area.
From the Paper
"The Sri Venkateswara Temple is also known as the Balaji Mandir and functions as both a Hindu Temple and a Cultural Society serving the Hindu people in the area. There arose a need for such a temple in the Bridgewater area during the 1980s. One reason is that this period saw a significant increase in the Hindu Indian population in the area. In addition to the fact that this community experienced the need for worship services and cultural connections, was also the fact that many of these people were employed by the professional sector. They therefore had significant funds to contribute toward a project of establishing a worship community and building a temple. As mentioned above, the parental concern for retaining their children's awareness of their cultural roots also played a role in the need for establishing a temple. The first step towards attaining this goal was to buy land on which a temple could be built."

Judgment of Taste, 2002.
Compares theories of judgment of taste as set forth by philosophers David Hume and Immanuel Kant.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
Both Immanuel Kant and David Hume hold that community, rather than merely individual response, plays a major role in the judgment of taste. Both Kant and Hume also hold that any single individual's judgment of taste is not superior over another's. The paper explains that for there to be a meaningful definition of "judgment of taste," there must be some measure which transcends limited comparisons between individual judgment. For these two philosophers, the author finds, this measure is in part in the thing being presented and perceived and in part in the community of individuals doing the perceiving and responding. Nevertheless, the paper shows that the best their grand thinking achieves is that judgment of taste is achieved only through some sort of positive consensus won by an object over a long period of time and, preferably, over several cultures as well. It argues that the fact that the works they refer to are exclusively by white European males does not support the argument about the importance of cross-cultural judgment.
From the Paper
"Still, even in such ideal circumstances, the individual will simply never be free of the "interest" which works to prejudice the individual's judgment on both the conscious and unconscious levels. If individual prejudice could be eliminated, of course, there would be no need for the philosophers to rely on the "community" aspect of the judgment of taste. The basis of this community aspect is a consensus, however Kant and Hume dress it up. If a work of art, for example, endures through generations and even centuries as an admired piece of work, as one which impresses the mind and stirs the emotions, then it can be said to have achieved a superior judgment of taste from the community."

Abstract
This paper explains that Alfred Edersheim's "The Temple: Its Ministry and Services" reveals the physical structure of the Temple in the days of Christ, the Temple's ordinances, worshipers and the priesthood of that period, the priesthood's ministry and its rituals. The author points out that, although this book is a fact-based, historical account, there is a tremendous amount of disagreement about the superiority of sources used by different Biblical scholars, who continue to disagree about the validity of various sources. The author does not contest this validity. The paper states that religious scholars like Edersheim make it clear that an understanding of the Old Testament and ancient Judaism can only enhance one's understanding of the life of Christ as the ultimate sacrifice.

Abstract
This paper details the known and disputed history of Solomon's temple, using the sources of the Old Testament and modern archaeology. The paper looks at the meaning of the site to the Jewish people beginning with the time of Moses. The architecture of the First Temple is discussed, its destruction and the building of the Second Temple, along with the final fate of both.
From the Paper
"From the time of Moses to that of King David, the tabernacle stood as the center of worship for the Jewish people. As a nomadic people wandering through the desert wilderness they carried this shrine with them. For the Jews, the tabernacle not only stood as a symbol of Yahweh?s blessing upon His chosen people and as a reminder to them to remain faithful though they wandered outside of the Promised Land, it also served as the home of Yahweh Himself. This was where the Shekinah Glory dwelt, God among men. When the Jews gained entrance at last into Palestine, they carried the tabernacle before them across the Jordan River and into Jerusalem. By the time David was crowned king, the Hebrew Nation had been well established. To King David, the tabernacle stood as reminder of all those years that his people spent wandering the desert. He desired a more permanent structure, one that would signify not only that the Jews had a homeland but also to give glory to the One who had led them there. The Lord forbade him to build his Temple (1 Chron. 22:7-8). This was a task that would be set before his son, Solomon. To this day, Solomon?s Temple remains one of the greatest symbols of Judaism and marks a point in time when the Jews did indeed occupy their Promised Land."

"Charlotte Temple", 2006.
A review of Susanna Rowson's novel "Charlotte Temple".
1,340 words (approx. 5.4 pages), 0 sources, $ 45.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses how Rowson intended "Charlotte Temple" to act as a cautionary tale to the young women of the time to show them the devastating consequences of entering into a sexual relationship before marriage. In particular, the paper looks at how, in analyzing the use of misfortune and benevolence throughout the story, particularly in the relation of the story of Charlotte's parents, we see that "Charlotte Temple" exists beyond the genre of a cautionary narrative, also acting as a parable of virtue to inspire its readers to act with generosity and benevolence to those who had fallen on misfortune.
From the Paper
"The opening chapter of Charlotte Temple, in which Montraville first encounters and is enamored by the beautiful and innocent Charlotte, serves to establish a basis for the novels primary plot and themes. The second chapter of the book, however, introduces the subtler plots and themes of the story, with the detailed history of Charlotte's parents. The chapter begins by introducing the readers to Charlotte's father, Henry Temple, the younger son of an English Earl with a kind heart and gentle disposition. Possessing a small fortune and an illustrious pedigree, both society and Mr. Temples family expected him to marry into wealth and nobility. However Henry Temple's rejection of his place at the top of the English hierarchy serves to reveal the true content of his character by exemplifying his kindness, virtue, and benevolence. Further illustrating Mr. Temple's altruistic attributes are his interactions with the Eldridges, a family lowered into a state of poverty and imprisonment by the great misfortunes they endured. Mr. Eldridge, a former army captain with little wealth, borrowed money from his son's friend, Lewis, to fund his daughter's education. "

Abstract
This paper discusses "A Morbid Taste for Bones," written by Ellis Peters. The paper describes how, while the story follows the basic formula for a murder mystery, it is made more powerful than an ordinary detective tale due to the fact that it is set during the Middle Ages. The paper discusses the tale and how the author succeeds in bringing the events of the Middle Ages to life.
From the Paper
"This far-off historical period is made more accessible to contemporary readers, even readers who know little about the Middle Ages by the engaging personality of its hero, Brother Cadfael. It might be very difficult to relate to person of an era who took the words of the Bible literally, who believed in dreams as prophesy, and the absolute sanctity of holy relics. But Brother Cadfael, although a devoutly religious man, is also realistic and humorous. He did not choose a religious vocation when he was very young, like Brother Jerome and most of the other members of his holy order. Cadfael spent most of his life fighting in Jerusalem, in the Crusades. Now, he is happy to put his worldly cares behind him, having seen the world and all of its ugliness. Although he occasionally chafes against the restrictions of the monastic life, as when his prayers take him away from tending his beloved, medicinal herbal garden, he usually strives to be obedient and good: "He had, after all, chosen this cloistered life with his eyes open" (1)."

Because of the inability to expand their job or the expectations of their job the filed stagnated for many years. Then Frances Payne Bolton entered the scene. France Payne Bolton was a nurse who took the bull by the horns and brought about changes that would revolutionize the nursing industry".

From the Paper
"Computers in all of the computer rooms are fully occupied throughout much of the academic day. Because of this, some students have trouble getting access, so increasing the number of computers is necessary to solve this problem. According to the results of a questionnaire, eight out of ten students answered TUJ should increase the number of computers at the university. Also, seven out of ten students answered the increased number of computers would elevate efficiency in their study. Because student demand is high and because computer availability impacts studies, it is necessary for TUJ to increase the number of computers. If TUJ increases the number of computers, student satisfaction with the university will be higher. This is beneficial for the university because TUJ will acquire a better reputation and have more applicants. This will result in an increase in profit of TUJ, which will help TUJ to survive in the competitive market for educational institutions."

Abstract
This paper looks at the subject, message, and broad appeal of the poetry of Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, the popularity she enjoyed as a poet in her day, her philosophy of human rights, and her involvement in activities that could help further the rights of black people. The paper includes some of Harper's poems in order to demonstrate her technique, style, and use of imagery.
From the Paper
"Benjamin Brawley writes of her that she was clearly a minor poet who gained a reputation in part because of other activities. For instance, for six years prior to the Civil War Harper was an anti-slavery agent in the East, and for more than thirty years after the war she was a lecturer in the South on temperance and home-building, with her major interest being in moral and social reform. She was born of free parents in Baltimore, and when they died, she had to make her own living beginning at age 13. Later, she was a teacher for three years in Ohio, but when Maryland passed an act forbidding free Negroes from the North to come to the state or they would be imprisoned and sold into slavery, she dedicated herself to fighting this wrong and other limits on freedom (Brawley 100-101)."

"Wieland" and "Charlotte Temple", 2006.
An analysis of the theme of the loss of female virtue in "Wieland" by Charles Brockden Brown and "Charlotte Temple" by Susanna Rowson.

»

Abstract
This paper discusses how both the novels "Charlotte Temple" and "Wieland" each present their audience with moral, virtuous examples of women who by the scorn and judgment of the societies in which they live, are placed in positions of disgrace by those who their societies dictated should have protected them. The paper relates that both Charlotte and Clara are betrayed by what their societies viewed as the "other", outsiders who ingratiate their way into the trust of these innocent women in attempts to ruin them or tarnish their reputations. The paper also discusses how, in both the novels it is not the actual immorality of the female characters that leads to their discrimination and ultimate downfall, but the damaging and excluding way in which society responds to their supposed fall from virtue that results in the tragic conclusion of these stories.
From the Paper
"In Charlotte Temple and Wieland, we are presented with two female characters that seem to embody the ideal of appropriate feminine behavior that dominated society throughout the eighteenth century. While Charlotte is docile, sweet-tempered, and consciously respectful and obedient of her parents, Clara represents a more modern, Enlightened female of the time, brimming with intelligence, quick wit, rationality, and the propensity for intellectual debate and discourse, while still maintaining her femininity and virtue. Similarly, both young women were subject to an idyllic, almost utopian upbringing. Charlotte, raised in the country under the wing of her unfailingly kind and generous parents, had experienced no deceit, dishonesty, or depravity of human nature. "

Abstract
This paper discusses the poem "I Taste a Liquor Never Brewed", by Emily Dickinson, comparing the effect of the beauty of nature to the effect of alcohol. The paper portrays the impressive use of imagery to represent drinking, nature, and purity, and the even more remarkable use of imagery to convey eternity and time sequence. The paper provides a stanza by stanza examination of the poem, further illustrating Dickinson's masterful application of imagery throughout the poem.
From the Paper
"Emily Dickinson?s poem, ?I taste a liquor never brewed,? compares the effect of the beauty of nature to the effect of alcohol. While the poem?s use of imagery to represent drinking, nature, and purity is impressive, even more remarkable is the use of imagery to convey eternity and time sequence. From the poem?s very beginning, ?The liquor never brewed,? until the last line, ?Leaning against the sun!? Dickinson uses imagery to relate the eternity of her persona?s love for nature. But more cleverly, she also creates a subtle time continuum for events that she mentions throughout the poem. It is common for poets to use imagery to call upon the reader?s senses, most commonly sight. However, Dickinson crosses new boundaries by adding imagery to communicate a time dimension that is evident in the transition from one stanza to another. Additionally, Dickinson is unique in her use of imagery to express humor. This is evident in the selection of the metaphor she has chosen as well as lines she uses to develop her metaphor and thee sequencing of stanzas."
