Ziggy Hall (interviewer): So here we are with George Gordon, Lord Byron. We?re going to be talking about everything from birth to how you want to die. First things first, what would you prefer I call you: George Gordon or Lord Byron? Byron (me): Definitely, Lord Byron. I feel I have earned the title. Ziggy: Alright, that?s totally cool dude. So, let?s talk about your parents, Jack Byron and Catherine Gordon. Me: Well, my mother was a descendent of an old Scottish noble family. I will always appreciate that she spoke her mind and would not tolerate my father?s irresponsibility. His motives weren?t exactly pure when he married my mother.

Huckleberry Finn
First Line

The first line of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn captures the book in its raw essence. It begins as the narrator, later identified to be Huckleberry Finn, opens with a statement that blatantly says that we may know of him from another book. From the opening pages, the audience feels the omnipresence of both Huck?s narrative voice and Twain?s voice as author. It introduces Huck in a colloquial, friendly manner and after continuing we see that when Huck refers to the author as ?Mr. Mark Twain?, forming a separation between the two different narrators and another between Twain?s previous The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and the object novel.

Donovan Bridgeforth English IV ? Dual Credit Mrs. Carwile ? 3A 12 October 2010 Comparison and Contrast of the Characters Beowulf and Grendel When we compare and contrast the characters of Beowulf from the epic poem Beowulf and Grendel, of John Gardner?s Grendel, it is revealed that Grendel is more troubled than monstrous. If we compare their search of their life?s fulfillment, their peculiar relationship with Unferth, what defines their lives, and their need of the Danes. The comparison of these aspects will show that Grendel is not as monstrous as he is portrayed, but instead he is more troubled.

Many people have contributed to the evolution of the English language in ways that may or may not have been intended but that have had profound effects over time. During the period of Norman rule, there was a proliferation of English dialects that meant that by the fifteenth century people in one part of England could not understand people in another. William Caxton was the first person to print a book in English, and as more and more books increased the possibilities of education, they also helped create a common language rather than such a babble of tongues. Caxton also translated numerous foreign works and at the same time introduced many foreign words into the English language.
