Faithlessness in John Donne’s Love Poetry

It was a tradition in Elizabethan time that love poems were written to praise lovers’fidelity,but Donne boldly broke the tradition and chose faithlessness as the theme in some of his poems.The paper analyzes a series of images in Donne’s love po ems to present the theme of faithlessness and then it discusses the reasons why Donne deals with the theme.Faithlessness in Don ne’s love poems can not be interpreted only as Donne’s doubt about love.The discussion of love’s fidelity in his poems also comes from Donne’s sensibility about instability of the world and his perturbation of religious belief.     

Birdman: The Devil from the Past

The film Birdman was a great success for its writing, direction, performances and cinematography. It tells the story of a former-famous actor’s struggle to cope with his current life. One continuous take is used to illustrate the actor’s self-search in the setting of a Broadway theater. The experimental style of the film highlights great performances and strengthens emotional tension, which makes it a great production.
