Black Elk Speaks
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper which discusses the book "Black Elk Speaks: Being
the Life Story of a Holy Man of the Oglala Sioux," translated and published by John
Neihardt, and argues that it is a tale of how the his tribe, and perhaps all Native American
Tribes, lost much of what was precious to them. We examine the fact that the death of
their power and way of life could have been caused by the arrival of the White man, but
that it could also have been for reasons unknown as of yet, which is, in many ways, what
Black Elk seems to be saying. The White man, therefor, was only a tool that helped
destroy the way of life and the power of the Native peoples. No additional sources cited.

Blaise Pascal
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Blaise Pascal - the only son and one of four children born to Étienne, a local judge, and a mother who would die when Blaise was only three years old – is noted as being one of history's most naturally talented individuals when it came to mathematical concepts. While many believe his "reputation rests more on what he might have done than on what he actually effected" (Ball, 1960, p. PG) because of a fixation upon religious studies, Pascal has nonetheless earned a weighty position in the annals of mathematical application. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
