    1,618 words
    When one examines the maxim of Thomas Hobbes as set forth in Leviathan it becomes obvious that Hobbes believes the nature of man to be bad. According to Hobbes, if we as men were left to exercise our own private judgement regarding our affairs we would most assuredly collapse into a state of war.

  • Sexual Nature Bears In A Way
    297 words
    In Love Medicine by Louise Erdrich I have most definitely noticed the motif of sexual nature as a form of power. It is interesting how this sexual power can be represented in different ways (e.g. as a biblical allusion or metaphor). Erdrich has a way of expressing the power that sexual nature bears in a way that really conveys significance to the reader. Her vivid imagery lets the reader really feel the power that resides in all of our sexual nature. Erdrich uses a water metaphor to embody sexua...
