  Macbeth is a play written by William Shakespeare. It is considered one of his darkest and most powerful tragedies. Set in Scotland, the play dramatizes the corroding psychological and political effects produced when its protagonist, the Scottish lord Macbeth, chooses evil as the way to fulfill his ambition for power. He commits regicide to become king and then furthers his moral descent with a reign of murderous terror to stay in power, eventually plunging the country into civil war. In the end, he loses everything that gives meaning and purpose to his life before losing his life itself.

  The Poetry Of Light from Dawn To...

  The night begins its surrender to the first gleamings of the day. 
  The day falls into the inky embrace of night. 
  Within these two periods Nature interplays light and dark creating magical glancing rays and soft somnolent blankets of ever-changing coloured light. 
  Dawn, sunrise, Dusk, twilight, sunset.  We are held in captive awe as the fruit of the sun waxes and wanes….wanes and waxes. 
  Our classic poets, with their imagination and word-play, capture these times in wondrous verse.

The Scarlet Letter is set in 17th century Salem, Massachusetts, and concerns the  public condemnation of Hester Prynne, who bears an illegitimate child. However, the story is not about adultery, nor is it specifically about sin. Rather it traces the effect of actual and symbolic sin on the mind and spirit of each character. In the end, The Scarlet Letter comes to stand not for adultery, but for the guilt that is the common experience of all humans.An L.A.

  “All Lesser Creatures” takes an often-used mythologic monster idea and twists into a new direction. You will see the more familiar take on the idea in the story as well but also as seen in a very different light. This story realizes the full potential of a certain basic idea, just as the main character realizes the full and awesome potential of he and his kind, who previously believed themselves to be without defenses. The story is comprised of: 
  • A simple man who suffers an accident leaving him with a bizarre condition 
  • This man coming to accept and even enjoy his new lifestyle thanks to newfound community 
  • Several unusual creatures with amazing abilities 
  • Unexpected twists on an old idea, taking it to new places and to a new level 
  • A tale of triumph over vicious oppression by the downtrodden underdogs 
  • A new appreciation for a wide variety of animals 
  “All Lesser Creatures” is a refreshing and positively affirming story. If you feel like the world has got you down and there’s nothing you can do about it, just look to the example set by Gary Landry (the main character) and his friends. Your situation and the appropriate response will almost certainly not be the same but the message is clear: don’t underestimate or give up on yourself. Realize your true potential.
