Writing Log 4B hotspots

The first hotspot I found was on page 200. Said contends “Every empire, however, tells itself and the world that it is unlike all other empires, that its mission is not to plunder and control but to educate and liberate”
The second hot I found in Edward Said’s article was also on page 200. “Several generations of Americans have come to see the Arab world mainly as a dangerous place, where terrorism, and religious fanaticism are spawned and where a gratuitous anti-Americanism is inculcated in the young by evil clerics who are anti-democratic and virulently anti-Semitic.”
The first hotspot I found in Yeats’ poem was on page 221 lines seven and eight. “The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.”
The second hotspot I found in Yates’ poem was on page 221 as well, line 3. “Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;”

  1. I had the same second hot spot as you for the second coming. I thought this line was very intersting
