Abstract
This paper discusses how the United States government had very few regulatory controllers on corporate greed, which ultimately resulted in the stock market crash of 1929 and the Great Depression. Debs' opposition to the First World War is valid, since America was quickly imploding due to the massive unemployment and labor disputes that were tearing the country apart. The paper further discusses how socialism offers a balanced government that would help stave off corporate greed through regulation, much as President Roosevelt was forced to do through the New Deal in later times.
From the Paper
"Eugene Debs was a socialist political activist in the Socialist Party of America during the first quarter of the twentieth century. Debs ran for president on the Socialist Party ticket, which had been caused by corporate monopoly and war profiteering witnessed in the before and after the First World War. The cause for labor rights and other socialist themes were part of his personality, as he sought to find governmental regulation against corporations and private enterprise. This was brought about by unfair wages, governmental support of private corporate monopoly, and the social upheaval cause by excessive greed. Eugene Debs often wrote speeches that characterize his approach to socialist issued in America. In his "Canton, Ohio Speech of 1918", one can see the post war attitude toward corporations that Debs chose to fight against."

Abstract
In Alexander Pushkin's novel, "Eugene Onegin", two very different love letters are written by the protagonists, Tatyana and Eugene. The paper examines the differences in the two letters in terms of how they reflect the psychology of Eugene and Tatyana.
From the Paper
"The letter that Onegin writes to Tatyana also starts with him saying that she might find the letter offensive and be angered by it. He also says that the letter will give her reasons to mock him and laugh at him. Because Onegin knows this but still continues to write to her, shows that he genuinely cares for her and wants her to know what he really feels, but the rest of the letter does not bring up the way he loves her. Onegin's letter, while written because of his love for Tatyana, does not talk about his love for her. It does not give reasons as to why they should be together. It is more of an apology, a letter of excuses, and admittance of selfish acts brought on by immature thinking and apprehension of intimate closeness."

In act 1, Parritt says: "I hung around pool rooms and gambling joints and hooker shops, where they'd never look for a Wobblie, pretending I was a sport." Later in the same act, Harry Hope berates Slade: "Crazy is right! Yah! The old wise guy! Wise, hell! A damned old fool Anarchist I-Won't-Worker!" Later in act 1, Hope says again to Slade: "You bughouse I-Won't-Work harp, who asked you to shove in an oar?" Here again he is identifying and making fun of Slade's IWW past."

From the Paper
"Vidal has written three kinds of novels. Early in his career, he mostly wrote what can best be called contemporary dramas, telling stories of people from various branches of American society: A soldier in World War II, a young stock broker on Wall Street, the embittered son of a privileged family, a young adventurer in strife-torn Central America. In 1964, with the publication of Julian, he introduced himself as a historical novelist and eventually he wrote a series of seven novels examining the history of America from the Revolutionary War to the present. Vidal writes novels that he calls "inventions," a genre that others authors have called post-modern fiction. "

Eugene O'Neill's "Desire under the Elms", 2008.
Looks at realism in Eugene O'Neill's "Desire under the Elms".

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper briefly examines Eugene O'Neill's use of various types of realism in several of his plays. The paper points out that, in general, O'Neill did not deal with the preoccupations of the external world but rather with his own preoccupations, which were derived not from these personal demons but from his religious treatment of them. The paper then relates that the realism in "Desire under the Elms" involves aspects of Freudian psychology, as seen in the character Eben's Oedipal complex. The author concludes that the realism of the setting and of the speech patterns of the play makes the action seem all the more universal and a mirror of human psychology more than anything separate and unique to the characters in the play.
From the Paper
"As O'Neill became more famous in his early years as a playwright, he also became increasingly conscious of his public position and increasingly articulate about his ideals and hopes for American drama. As often happens, after his initial success he achieved notoriety as critics questioned some of his work, such as "All God's Chillun" for its racial theme or "Desire Under the Elms" for its supposed immorality. His reputation then reached new heights with the production of "Strange Interlude" in 1928, a play that took more than five hours to present."

Eugene O'Neill, 2004.

Abstract
This paper begins by providing an overview of the life of Eugene O'Neill and looks at the literary trends during his time. It then compares and contrasts works from his two distinct career phases, showing how when the author came out of the influence of European thinkers and writers, he managed to write some of his best plays. The plays that are compared are "The Emperor Jones" and "A Long Day's Journey into Night".
From the Paper
"In this play, the author illustrates the one man?s journey into the heart of darkness where he meets his fears in form of apparition and finally comes to accept his humanity. The Emperor in this case is Jones who has been controlling an island ruthlessly; robbing the natives of their wealth and making them believe he was an invincible god-like being. When he learns of a revolt brewing, he runs into the forest and loses his way. This journey is the most important part of the play as it reveals the inner struggle that every man goes through when choosing between right and wrong, good and evil. Doris Falk explains: ?The progress of Jones is progress in self understanding; it is the stripping off of the masks of self, layer by layer, just s bit by his emperor?s uniform is ripped from his destiny, himself in nakedness?. (67) Jones is stripped of the front that he had put on for so long. It is when that identity is gone, that Jones is forced to question and accept his own limitations. He is a human being with all the same desires, urges and fears that every man experiences and it is when he realizes how helpless he is without his fake identity that he becomes more human and humble. Expressionist plays have a different rather subjective way of dealing with real problems and issues. For example, fears in this case have been projected as apparitions or ghosts that haunt Jones and remind him of his weaknesses. ?They are black, shapeless, only their glittering little eyes can be seen. If they have any describable form at all it is that of a grub worm about the size of a creeping child. They move noiselessly, but with deliberate, painful effort, striving to raise themselves on end, failing and sinking prone again.? (Scene II, 28)
Some other important issues have also been raised in the play especially race and racism. Threading it with the issue of identity, the author explains that Jones? belief that he had the same powers, as a white man was a faulty one since it negated the significance of his own black race. Because he denied his race and shunned it and since he was certainly not white, the man lost his identity completely and was lurking in the dark, looking for an identity and a sense of belonging. While reminiscing about his criminal past, the protagonist thinks about Jeff, the white man he had murdered."

Abstract
This essay discusses how Eugene O'Neil's "Long Day's Journey Into Night" uses the Freudian theory of the unconscious in the stream-of-consciousness dialogue. The play is about a dysfunctional family, whose summer on the shore is filled with abuse of alcohol and drug addiction. Yet the family is in severe denial about this abuse. In this context, we see Freud's theme of how the unconscious operates.

Eugene O'Neil's "Long Day's Journey into Night", 2006.
This paper reviews Eugene O'Neil's "Long Day's Journey Into Night" and the use of denial by the main characters.

Abstract
This review of Eugene O'Neil's "Long Day's Journey Into Night", describes how the characters use denial as a temporary escape from their problems. Whether it be denying personal qualities, such as stinginess, a bad decision, or an unhealthy addiction, their denial only makes their problems worse. O'Neill uses the Tyrone family and their denial to show how avoiding issues is not going to solve or make them disappear. Though denial may be a temporary escape from a problem, in the long run it is futile.
From the Paper
"It is common knowledge that "The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem." Unfortunately, in Eugene O'Neill's "Long Day's Journey Into Night", many of the characters find the first step to be the hardest. Instead of facing reality, James Tyrone, Edmund, Jamie, and Mary continue to deny their problems in hopes that they will go away. Each of the characters uses denial as a temporary escape from their problems and the reality of the world rather than facing their problems and solving them."

Eugene Fama and his ?Security Prices? Theory, 2002.
This paper examines to what extent security prices are a good estimate of ?Intrinsic Value? on modern developed capital markets, based on a philosophy of analyst Eugene Fama.

Abstract
A paper which discusses Fama?s philosophy, which concedes that in a efficient market the price of securities is a good estimate of the intrinsic value of the capital market, that information should flow freely and that the price of the securities should reflect the information that is available. In addition, the participants in the market should make decisions about the based on the information that they already have. The paper defines Intrinsic value, capital markets and securities, the types of securities that exist and current events involving the Enron Corporation and its collapse to determine whether or not we indeed have an efficient market in which securities are a good estimate of the intrinsic value of the modern day capital market.
From the Paper
"With all this information being understood lets discuss whether or not Fama?s beliefs are valid in the modern capital market. First of all let?s examine whether or not by definition today?s capital markets are efficient. Fama believes that an efficient market is one in which there is an almost free flow of current information. The efficiency of our current market is questionable at best. While Enron was sinking its shareholders were not given current accurate information pertaining to the financial state of the company. Another aspect of this inefficiency is that the market will make decisions based on what has already occurred or what may occur in the future. "

The elder brothers decide to take the money and run to California to work in the gold mines. Half of Eben's equation is solved, but Ephraim returns home married for the third time to a lady named Abbie."
