How To Write A Sample Essay As Great As The Law of Gravity By William J. Heisler

How To Write A Sample Essay As Great As The 'Law of Gravity' By William J. HeislerIf you are a college student that has taken AP Lit for your college entrance exams, then you would know how difficult it is to write a real good essay. A good essay, be it fiction or non-fiction, has to take its own shape. Hence, when writing a sample essay for the AP Lit Exam, you would want to know how to help your essay stand out from the rest.Here is a practical application of this principle in writing an essay. Suppose that you were to write an essay on this topic: 'The Law of Gravity'. You might very well find that a lot of essay writing writers have written essays on this subject, some of which are very good, while others are hardly worth the name. On the other hand, some of these writers had yet to attain their full potential. Your example for the later type of essay would be: 'Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution: Origins and Problems' by William J. Heisler.Heisler's essay was an extremely inte resting piece, with subjects and topics that did not simply fall into chronological order, but were much more interesting in themselves. In Heisler's essay, he places the evolution of the species, its stages, its stages of development, its varieties, its methods, its causes, its uses, etc. But above all, Heisler's essay took its own shape and set of topics and started from the place where Darwin had started from: the Origin of Species.The central and at the same time most important concept in Heisler's essay is the one that he presented in his introduction, as the major theme of his essay. This theme is the theory of evolution. From this premise Heisler's essay jumps into a question and answer manner and moves from there. His explanation for Darwin's theory of evolution is really compelling, and it is because of this that it got him to write 'Origin of Species', instead of 'Necessary Conditions for Evolution' as he could have done with his essay 'The Law of Gravity'.The rest of the essay is equally powerful and worthy of consideration. The reading, the discussion and the essays, which are also included in the book, are all very compelling. The entire essay, however, is also extremely effective because Heisler chose to make a conversation between two characters that were very different. The premise and the topic are very different but the dialogue is very similar, making it feel as if it had been written by the same author.In a way, the essay does remind me of the writings of the great poets, but then again the 'in between' nature of such an essay is what makes it unique. The difference is that the writer of this essay has actually tried to make his essay have something that it would not do on its own. That was probably the idea behind the format, the method and the subject, and Heisler followed suit.There is one final thing I should mention about the structure of this essay. I have found it very difficult to summarize all the different ideas that were written in this essay. So, just for the sake of making this brief, let me list all the ideas that are discussed in the essay.

Animal Farm Summary Essays - British Films, Cold War Films

Animal Farm Summary Animal Farm Summary The book starts in the barnyard of Mr. Jones' "Manor Farm". The animals gather at a meeting led by the white boar, Major. Major shows them that no animal in England is free. He also explains that the stuff that they produce is taken by man and the animals do not benefit. The only thing that man gives is food to survive so more money can be made off of the animals. Majors lets them know that man is the source of all problems and should be eliminated. He proposes that all of the animals should avoid man's habits. Above all Major says to the animals that they cannot kill one another, that they are all equal. A few days later Major dies, but his message remains in the hearts and minds of the animals. Under the leadership of the pigs, who are clearly the more intelligent of the animals, they strike against their human master and manage to get rid of him. After the rebellion, under the direction of Napoleon, the most outspoken pig, and Snowball, the most articulate pig, the animals continue to work the farm with success. The animals now come up with a set of rules to run their society. They are labeled "the Seven Commandments of Animalism" and are posted on the barn wall. 1. Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy 2. Whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings is a friend. 3. No animal shall wear clothes. 4. No animal shall sleep in a bed 5. No animal shall drink alcohol 6. No animal shall kill any other animal. 7. All animals are equal The animals succeed at running the farm for a little while. They finish all of their work with stunning efficiency and every week hold ceremonies to celebrate the rebellion and to plan work. Meanwhile, the pigs as leaders are taking bigger food rations for themselves justifying their behavior as something necessary for the "brains" of their animal society. They explain that it is necessary or else the farmers might come back and take over the farm. The farmers do try to reclaim their tries to reclaim his power but the animals prevent him from doing so in what they call "The Battle of the Cowshed". The conflict between Napoleon and Snowball gets more intense. At every meeting they can never agree on what needs to be done. Napoleon and Snowball fight over whether or not a windmill should be built. Snowball has proposed this idea and Napoleon is, of course, against it. After the battle, Napoleon drives Snowball off the farm telling everyone that Snowball was on Mr. Jones' side. Napoleon is seen as a great leader by the animals because he had the wisdom to remove the traitor. Slowly, Napoleon gets a stronger and stronger hold over the other animals, dominating their every action. The situation at "Animal Farm", the new name for "Manor Farm", really starts to change now. Napoleon moves into Mr. Jones' house, sleeps in his bed, and even wears his clothes. These things were, of course, against the seven commandments but Napoleon found a way to interpret them as legal. In defiance of the original laws, Napoleon befriends Mr. Pilkington, the human owner of a nearby farm. Napoleon maintained an unbelievable amount of control over the animals as demonstrated by their acceptance of this relation to a man. In fact, almost every commandment is violated and then changed. After winning a battle against Mr. Frederick and his men the pigs have a drinking party and change the commandment to " thou shall not drink to excess." The pigs are using all of the resources and giving none to the other animals. The other animals are struggling to build the schoolhouse and the windmill while the pigs wear clothes, eat and drink. While working ferociously, Boxer collapses and Napoleon announces that he will be taken to the hospital. But when the truck arrives the animals realize that he is going to a horse slaughter house. But it's too late. A few years go by and the difference between man and pig is not noticeable to the other animals. The book ends with the pigs walking around on to legs in clothes and conversing with men. The only thing left out of the Seven Commandments is " All animals are equal. But some are more equal than others"
