Essay from the year 2018 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2.0, University of Oslo, language: English, abstract: In many ways, literature goes together with the current political events. After and during World War One it had a profound effect on the society and literature. People were first fascinated by the war due to the massive propaganda published by the governments, but shocked and feared of the horror they experienced during war time. Literature had changed dramatically and drastically when it came to war responses. It was mostly because the scale of damage was mostly unforeseen before the Great War. That¿s why literature was strong and self-conscious after this catastrophe in the early twentieth century. ¿The Great War was, in cultural terms, the last nineteenth-century war, in that it provoked an outpouring of literature touching on an ancient set of beliefs about revelation, divine justice, and the nature of catastrophe.¿ For most of the writers it was hard to express all their feelings and experiences in long texts and novels. That¿s why famous writers such as Virginia Woolf, T.S. Eliot and James Joyce used the form of poems and poetry to express their feelings about what happened to them and the society in World War One. In the following essay, we¿re taking a closer look at these three writers and how they reacted to the First World War with literature.

Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Environmental Sciences, grade: 2,0, University of Oslo, language: English, abstract: This term paper is dealing with the high meat consumption in Germany and its occurring consequences.Essays and dissertations dealing with meat consumption in Germany have been used as a basic collection of literature. Using neutral literature made it possible to give a broad overview of the topic. Besides one will have a closer look at its development and possible reasons for people to continue eating meat nowadays.The meat inspection law means 'meat' when talking about fresh or prepared parts of warm-blooded animals, which can be used for human consumption. Despite this containment one has to note that marine animals and other not warm-blooded animals are used for the consumption of meat as well. Still, for the following paper Hellichs and Schroeters definition of meat is enough, because it deals mostly with cattle and horses. On this occasion we deal mostly with meat products, which are produced and used in Germany.Since the last bovine spongiform encephalopathy crisis, short BSE-crisis, the industry must deal with a scandalous image on meat. Besides, bird flu, foot-and-mouth disease and different scandals with packaging lead to uncertainty within the German consumers. Their trust has been misused and people started to call for environmental friendly and animal friendly meat production.Today the meat consumption minimally decreases with every year, but the global consumption is still increasing. This causes consequences such as the increase of meat production which causes heavy environmental damages, which are responsible for devastating global impacts. The question, why people still consume that much meat despite they know what impact it has on the environment, arises.
