I need help with this question:
Discuss the historical time period of the author J.K. Rowling and the novel that you are focusing on. Mention the important highlights of the period and any special common themes that are common to all authors of the time.

“Protestantism was not simply a single movement away from the Roman Catholic Church; rather, it was a series of separate and often conflicting movements.” Do you agree? Explain your position.

In my limited time being alive (22 years) I have started to regard any form of truth being construed to a degree where it is basically situational. I've been researching logic, and am wondering if truth in itself is a fallacy? With as many variables and chaos the Earth has, how can one reason truth out of scenarios constantly under change?

Please help me? What do I do...?
I cant enter it again but I regret backing out.

Thanks,
Ciarax xxx

I've always been interested in writing short stories or a novel and I took a few writing classes in college, but now that I'm out, I'm having a hard time finding motivation and inspiration. Any tips for me from someone who's been there? Any book recos that might help spark some creativity with some exercises or give me ideas on how to start? Thanks!

Do you discuss your own philosophy about life to others or yourself, and if you do, is it your philosophy and not the thoughts and words of another philosopher.

My thesis statement:
"Crimes committed on the grounds of insanity can be justified due to 'state of mind'. Everyone has a breaking point, for some it is sooner than others."

The rest of the paragraph:
"Crimes committed on the grounds of insanity can be justified due to 'state of mind'. Everyone has a breaking point, for some it is sooner than others. All our actions can be justified somehow, whether due to mental state, physical state, or another reason we create. No matter what, we always find some reason why our actions may be right in our eyes. In The Black Cat and The Tell-Tale Heart, Edgar Allan Poe attempts to prove this statement true through his gruesome narration, strong symbolism, and various literary techniques."

hey guys im having to take Nietzsche's ''What, then, is truth?... etc." excerpt and find an example of how its been applied today either from other writers, scholars or teachers.

any help??

**here's the whole quote:
"What then is truth? A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms -- in short, a sum of human relations, which have been enhanced, transposed, and embellished poetically and rhetorically, and which after long use seem firm, canonical, and obligatory to a people: truths are illusions about which one has forgotten that is what they are; metaphors which are worn out and without sensuous power; coins which have lost their pictures and now matter only as metal, no longer as coins."

If I write "quarters" (as in LIVING quarters), is it followed by IT or THEM in the following sentence?

"The quarters may have officially belonged to Admiral Wilcox, but already Ben had made ________ his home."

I know quarters is a singular noun in this context, but does it act as a plural in other terms?
