What can you infer from the poem about Poe's attitude toward death? Is it a Christian one? Does he succeed in making you, the reader, feel as he does? Does his meter help him or hinder him in establishing the poem's mood? Why?

I'm doing a research study on various methods of donating "something" to humanity which would be perpetual. That means that society or humanity will benefit from this act or this donation, well after your death.

Examples are:
1. Wilderness Protection;
2. Inventions;
3. Acts of kindness;
4. Exceptional teachers (Abe Lincoln wouldn't have been where he was without a great school teacher);
5. Religious truths;
6. Nobel Peace Prize winners;
7. Philosophies of life;
8. Leading an exceptional life;
9. Having "successful" children (they don't have to be wealthy to be exceptional);
10. Leaving a particular legacy;
11. Super Mom or Dad;
12. Scientific contributions.

If you have any ideas, please feel free to let me know. If you have one idea - great! If you have many ideas - that would be fantastic!

Thanks!

've contributed an article to a volume which is a collection of articles and an introduction (by the editor of the volume). The editor says that she's signed a contract with the publisher, but she hasn't mentioned whether any of the contributers get paid for their contributions to the volume. What's normal in academic publishing? This is my first article in a book; I'm a postgraduate student.

Does anyone know about money in Regency England and how it was used in everyday life? For example: Were Pound Notes so rare among common folk? Which coins or notes were considered 'a lot' by normal people but insignificant by the peerage?

Before you ask, no, I'm not trying to hide a body. I have a paper due in my WV history class tonight and I am doing part of the paper on the Greenbrier Ghost. (I know, due tonight, I am such a slacker)

Part of the "legend" says that Mary Jane Heaster (victim's mother) removed the sheet from the coffin after the wake. The wake and burial were held the day after Zona Heaster Shue was murdered. Mary Jane noted that the sheet had an "odd odor." So I'm just curious as to how long after death that a body would start to smell.

And this would have been back in January of 1897 so it was probably cold already anyway and Shue would not have been embalmed.

France bankrolled the American Revolution. French culture & philosophers were a major influence on the founding fathers and the Age of Enlightenment.

What did the American founding fathers then think when they heard of the French Revolution and its descent into the Reign of Terror?

I can't find any information on what Ben Frankling & Thomas Jefferson thought (or other leaders).
