The History of HIV/AIDS
Imagine a disease that was usually fatal and could spread each and every time two people have sex. Now imagine that that disease progressed so slowly that it took an average of ten years from the time of infection until the infected person's death, sometimes as much as twenty years. Let's also imagine that the disease was caused by a virus so small, a mere 130 millionth of a millimeter in diameter, that if it was magnified several times, it still could not be seen with the naked eye. And what if the disease affected mostly people in the prime of their lives, rather than at the end of their years? And what if the disease produced hideous symptoms like purplish blotches on the skin, extreme fatigue, and severe weight loss? And imagine that disease was new and spreading around the world at an alarming rate, infecting tens of millions of people.

  Bram Stoker
Bram Stoker
Abraham "Bram" Stoker (1847-1912) was an Irish writer, best remembered as the author of the influential horror novel Dracula. Before writing Dracula, Stoker spent eight years researching European folklore and stories of vampires. Dracula is an epistolary novel, written as collection of diary entries, telegrams, and letters from the characters, as well as fictional clippings from the Whitby and London newspapers. Dracula has been the basis for countless films and plays. The two that most closely follow the plot of the original novel are Nosferatu (1922) and Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992). Nosferatu was produced while Stoker's widow was still alive, and the filmmakers were forced to change the setting and the names of the characters for copyright reasons. Stoker wrote several other novels dealing with horror and supernatural themes, but none achieved the lasting fame or success of Dracula. His other novels include The Snake's Pass (1890), The Jewel of Seven Stars (1903), and The Lair of the White Worm (1911).

  George Eliot
George Eliot
Mary Ann Evans, better known by the pen name George Eliot (22 November 1819 - 22 December 1880), was an English novelist. She was one of the leading writers of the Victorian era, whose novels, largely set in provincial England, are well known for their realism and psychological perspicacity. She used a male pen name, she said, to ensure that her works were taken seriously. Female authors published freely under their own names, but Eliot wanted to ensure that she was not seen as a writer of romances. An additional factor may have been a desire to shield her private life from public scrutiny and to prevent scandals attending her relationship with the married George Henry Lewes.

  Gothic Literature
Gothic Literature
The gothic novel is a literary genre that belongs to Romanticism and began in Britain with The Castle of Otranto (1764) by Horace Walpole. It is the predecessor to modern horror fiction and, above all, has led to the common definition of "gothic" as being connected to the dark and horrific. Prominent features of gothic novels included terror, mystery, the supernatural, ghosts, haunted buildings, castles, trapdoors, doom, death, decay, madness, hereditary curses, and so on.

  Robert Heinlein
Stranger in a Strange Land
Science fiction historians point to the early 1960s as a period of growing acceptance of the science fiction novel as more than fantasy or speculative literature. The social criticism and astute observation of human behavior demonstrated in the best of this genre gained considerable respect during this decade, when the pulp science fiction writers were finding their voice in the longer novel. Probably the most outstanding example of the acceptance of this new voice is the cult status accorded Robert Heinlein now legendary Stranger in a Strange Land. It stands with Dune and A Canticle for Leibowitz in the first rank of classic science fiction.

  Robinson Crusoe
Robinson Crusoe
...Robinson Crusoe claims to be the book composed as a part of the Puritan Guide, and Spiritual Biography tradition. Guide literature was a form that was particularly popular from the seventeenth century onwards. Also known as conduct literature, the genre was used to teach readers how to live in order to achieve salvation. The common constituents of guide literature were neglecting the ordinary duties of one's station or place, discouragement because of failure or afflictions, uncertainty because of bad advice, and the bad advice of companions. All wrong choices were perceived as an implicit rebellion against God's will, for they constituted a failure to follow God's providential rule over the world. Guide literature was therefore used to express to the young the need for proper guidance...

  The Bluest Eye
The Bluest Eye
...The main character of her novel, Pecola Breedlove, an eleven year old black girl hates and despises herself. Never in my life would I think that such a young child can hate herself. Again, we see the corruption caused by so-called American dream and American society on people who live there. It is ironic that Pecola's last name is Breedlove, because she and her family do not breed love, but only self-hatred. Pecola perceives herself as ugly because she is black, and like most black people she has heavy eyebrows, and her eyes are dark, closely set, she has high cheekbones and big lips. As I picture her in my mind she is not ugly, but an ordinary black girl...

  Till We have Faces
Till We Have Faces
...First thing one notices about Orual is that she refers to herself as ugly. She is really physically ugly, as I have understood Orual is a kind of manly looking woman. And this fact plays a great role in shaping her character. She seems to be afraid of the women of her royal father. I think she also hated them because they were beautiful and she was not given this most important female feature. Orual is raised without mother who died. Her main teacher is the Greek slave called Fox. Fox is the adherent of Stoicism. He opposes the passionate and primitive religion of the kingdom of Glome with his rational mind and Stoic belief in cause and effect relationships between all phenomena...

  Wild Swans
Wild Swans
...A story "Wild Swans" by Jung Chang is an epic that covers the lives of three generations of Chinese women who lived in China's most politically vibrant times.It begins with the story about the author's grandmother. At the age of only two years old she had her feet bound. This was the procedure that entailed placing a piece of cloth tightly around the foot. All that was done in order to prevent the foot from growing. That procedure itself was a painful reminder of America's awful anorexia nervosa. When the author's grandmother was fifteen she was virtually sold as a concubine to the War Lord Xue. It was her greedy and exploitive father who gave his native daughter into slavery for money. Being a concubine she bore Xue a child. It was a little girl. She gave her a name Bao Qim. She was the author's mother. Then Xue died, and the author's grandmother became a free woman. After awhile she got acquainted with a married doctor named Xia. He seemed to be a very handsome man. She fell in love with him...

  William Shakespeare
William Shakespeare
Since his death Shakespeare's plays have been almost continually performed, in non-English-speaking nations as well as those where English is the native tongue; they are quoted more than the works of any other single author. The plays have been subject to ongoing examination and evaluation by critics attempting to explain their perennial appeal, which does not appear to derive from any set of profound or explicitly formulated ideas. Indeed, Shakespeare has sometimes been criticized for not consistently holding to any particular philosophy, religion, or ideology; for example, the subplot of A Midsummer Night's Dream includes a burlesque of the kind of tragic love that he idealizes in Romeo and Juliet. The strength of Shakespeare's plays lies in the absorbing stories they tell, in their wealth of complex characters, and in the eloquent speech - vivid, forceful, and at the same time lyric - that the playwright puts on his characters' lips. It has often been noted that Shakespeare's characters are neither wholly good nor wholly evil, and that it is their flawed, inconsistent nature that makes them memorable. Hamlet fascinates audiences with his ambivalence about revenge and the uncertainty over how much of his madness is feigned and how much genuine. Falstaff would not be beloved if, in addition to being genial, openhearted, and witty, he were not also boisterous, cowardly, and, ultimately, poignant. Finally, the plays are distinguished by an unparalleled use of language. Shakespeare had a tremendous vocabulary and a corresponding sensitivity to nuance, as well as a singular aptitude for coining neologisms and punning.
