Kingdom is the opportunity of a lifetime. I anxiously await the opportunity to building a solid educational foundation which I hope to constantly improve upon by staying abreast of any improvements in the field, at University of Oxford. I believe I can contribute and help University of Oxford reach even greater heights.
studying performance, handling studies at a prestigious university while simultaneously working in a professional capacity required strong organisational and time management skills and considerable flexibility. Thus I gained valuable practical experience and skills beneficial in any future career. • An interest in higher education and in particular an understanding of Oxford University, and its goals in teaching and research I moved to Oxford in September 2009 together with my partner who is a first
instances of cruelty in the novel, and there are numerous others (such as the cruel revelation that Latin is not merely "decodable" into English, which shatters Jude's naive pretensions about learning that language; and Jude's rejected application for university entrance, without even having the opportunity to be tested; and Sue's reversal of all her ideals and decisions upon the death of her children, which she sees as some sort of divine warning, and her subsequent return to Phillotson, to name but a
The Oxford University Dictionary defines the word power as ‘authority or control’ over an individual and knowledge as ‘the sum of what is known’. In Angela Carter’s story The Bloody Chamber (1979) knowledge and power correlate with each other. The more information a character possesses the greater authority they have. In The Bloody Chamber Carter utilises a variety of literary techniques to express the importance of knowledge and power in the plot. This essay will analyse the way Carter applies these

“History exists only when it is “made” by the historian.” (Vince, 65). According to R.W. Vince, it is very easy for researchers to get lost between “fact” and “interpretation” when documenting theatre history. Even when scholars uncover identical pieces of information, they may each have their own personal explanations as to why these facts exist. In turn, readers must exercise critical analysis when studying scholar’s research and not fall into the trap of viewing history from the author’s perspective
the Christian mind through academic study and its Oxford Centre for Christianity and Culture. Many theology students from other colleges will come for tuition at Regent’s Park, such is its expertise in this area. Regent’s Park is situated just north of the city centre and has over 150 students, around a third are postgraduates. The college tries to house all its undergraduates but this can be tricky and is not guaranteed. Unusually for Oxford it can house a certain number of couples and families

Psychoeducation for Schizophrenia has previously been supported in treatment recommendations and guidelines for best practise in hospitals. In their review of 15 new studies in the area, Lisa Dixon M.D (University of Maryland), Curtis Adams M.D (University of Maryland) and Alicia Luckstead M.D (University of Maryland) reinforce support for family psychoeducation for schizophrenia. The review “Update on Family Psychoeducation for Schizophrenia” aims to persuade the readership of the effectiveness of family
The World is Too Much With Us by William Wordsworth In William Wordsworth's 'The World is Too Much With Us,' this poem heeds warning to his generation. This warning is that they are losing sight of what is actually important in this world: nature and God. To some people both of these are the same thing '...as if lacking appreciation for the natural gifts of God is not sin enough, we add to it the insult of pride for our rape of His land' (Wordsworth). With his words, Wordsworth makes this message

results that I gained from my research have shown that people can’t achieve their dreams in the lack of hope. Hope is the irreplaceable element of success. The Oxford dictionary, an online dictionary which is created by The Oxford University, defines hope as “to want something to happen and think that is possible”(Hope). The denotation by The Oxford dictionary vitiates the true meaning of the word “hope”. “To want something to happen” (Hope) can be the explanation of require/desire however simplifying
Writing about the morning may be the easiest thing to write about. Many write about how they do not want to wake up in the morning or how they don’t want to leave their love ones to go to work or school. All of these written works are aubades. Aubades are a very interesting mode of poetry that is very loosely defined. They only have one criterion to be considered an aubade, but have no techniques that are unique to it. Aubades have been around since the middle ages and are still written till this
Hiding behind the idea of “restoring” one’s menses, abortion was practiced throughout colonial America. However, abortions weren’t fully considered to be so until after the quickening in pregnancy. Quickening was marked by when the baby would kick, so in a time when not that much was known about the female body quickening was the only thing that confirmed if a woman was pregnant or not. The opinion on abortifacients changed over time and was dependent on who was taking advantage of them. People seemed
