“The Communist Manifesto” by Karl Marx -- A Call to Revolution and a Theory of History
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses The Communist Manifesto (1848) and Karl Marx’s declaration, in the most simplistic terms, was that all events are determined by economic forces. The Manifesto was much more than a “literary and philosophical work,” -- it was also a revolutionary document, a plan to battle and a call to arms, and a reflection of the history of humanity in the Western world.

“The Denial of Death” by Ernest Becker
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing Ernest Becker’s text “The Denial of Death”. Ernest Becker’s 1973 text “The Denial of Death” puts forth the premise that man’s preoccupation with his own mortality forces him to repress this possibility and in doing so adopts a belief system in order to be accepted into an “immortality system” for support and for the belief that life exists beyond current perception. For those people who are overly consumed by death and are unable to form a belief or a level of acceptance, they are victim to neurosis or mental illness. Others who accept death and are able to live successfully with the knowledge and acceptance of their eventual outcome can be considered heroic. Because the denial of death is responsible for the formation of cultures, scientific processes should not be used to influence this psychological process because man truly does know little about the ultimate foundations of life.

"Death Of A Salesman": Tragedy As Defined By Aristotle
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. To label Arthur Miller's poignant play Death of a Salesman a tragedy is to acknowledge the human condition and all its inherent shortcomings, where the main character believes he is worth more dead than alive. Considered to be one of the major accomplishments of modern American theater, Death of a Salesman taps into the nothingness many people experience in their lives, a far too common attribute readily applicable to Aristotle's perception of tragedy. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
