[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page discussion of the similarities and differences in these two works. Sometimes densely elusive, Eliot’s “The Waste Land” recaptured much of the essence of the metaphysical poetry of the Seventeenth Century but the author’s style is at the same time unique to his own period, the period of modernism. Asserts that the underlying message of despair found in “The Waste Land” is present as well in Woolf’s “The Lighthouse”.

Moliere's Misanthrope & Wilde's Earnest
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page essay. Moliere, the seventeenth century French playwright, and Oscar Wilde, the nineteenth century British satirist, while separated by centuries, held similar views regarding fundamental human nature. Each of these writers looked at societal dictums concerning virtue and decorum with a jaundiced eye and satirized the idea that these injunctions are even plausible when applied to real life. Both Moliere and Wilde saw clearly that personality is largely a social construct--something that is invented by the individual in order to navigate the shoals and eddies of the sea of human society. As The Misanthrope by Moliere and The Importance of being Earnest by Wilde demonstrate, both playwrights indicate that to try to live completely according to the forces of society stifles social interaction and it is the individual to "invents" himself according to the occasion who is able to achieve happiness.
