passengers. They put the women and children

ship ever made of it's time in 1912. There were also many rich and famous people to set sail on the
Titanic from Southampton to New York and many of them died from the sinking of the Titanic. It
was also it's her first voyage to set sail from southampton to New york.
When the Titanic was finally launched on May 31, 1911. Bruce Ismay was the chairman of the
White Star Line company and Thomas Andrews was the one who designed the Titanic. It started its
construction at Harland and Wolff shipyard on May 31, 1909. People thought that the ship was
known as "unsinkable" because they believed that they used the most advanced technology of its
time in order to make this most magnificent ship built of its time. The company did not claim that
the Titanic is "unsinkable", people just claimed that the ship is unsinkable but it shocked people
around the world when the "unsinkable" ship actually sank with hundreds of innocent passengers.
However, It was also thought to be the largest man

Although, it had It affected many people when rich and famous people died with the sinking of the
Titanic because they felt that they knew these people. Otherwise, If no one would be rich and

Narrative Essay On The Titanic
He told me I should go. But I didn't want to leave my room. I had all of my personal Belongings
including our three kids. I wanted them to survive but I didn't want them to suffer. My heart was
beating a million miles an hour. I was swarmed with little thoughts in my head on what to do. I kept
on thinking "If I go there is a chance we get hypothermia in the freezing cold water and die suffering
or what if we fall off and drown alive." I just wanted help. We are all going to die. I boarded the
boat, known as the Titanic. It was a ship that was going change my husband's, three kids', and my
own life forever. I was so excited to go on this adventure. As the doorman opened the squeaky metal
door to the ship, I started to think what if this ship sinks. So what I did was when I got to the lobby I
asked the Captain "How great of a chance is there that this ship will sink." He replied "Madam, this
ship has been tested completely unsinkable." "Thank you sir". At this point a nice young lady came
up to us and said "How are you" "great'' "Do you know what room you are in?" "Yes, we are in
room A25!" "That's amazing, My husband and I are in room A27 would you like me to show you

The Titanic Essay
The Titanic – History of a Disaster On April 14,1912 a great ship called the Titanic sank on its
maiden voyage. That night there were many warnings of icebergs from other ships. There seems to
be a conflict on whether or not the warnings reached the bridge. We may never know the answer to
this question. The greatest tragedy of all may be that there were not enough lifeboats for everyone
on board. According to Walter Lord, author of The Night Lives On, the Titanic could have been
saved in the very beginning of the crisis when the iceberg was first reported to the bridge. If First
Officer Murdoch had steamed right at the iceberg instead of trying to avoid it, he might have saved
the ship. The author feels there would have been a loud

The Captain was going to have to make a choice as to who would be the first allowed on the
lifeboats. Around 12:30 a.m. the bridge informed the crew that only women and children would be
loaded on the lifeboats (Eaton,Haas,152). By 1:30 a.m., there was panic among some of the
passengers. One example was on the port side of the boat. A group of passengers threatened to jump
into a boat full of passengers. To scare them, one of the officers fired three shots on the ship's side.
The warning proved to be successful. Nobody was injured and the passengers calmed down (Eaton
and Haas 154). At the last moments with only forty seven available spaces on the last lifeboat, the
crew instructed everyone to form a circle around the boat. Women and children were the only people
permitted to pass through the circle. A little while after the last lifeboat left, the stern lifted clear out
of the water with more than 1500 people still on board (Eaton and Haas 157–161). The climatic
moment came at 2:20 a.m. The Titanic stood perpendicular to the water. As people in the lifeboats
looked on, they noticed the ship stayed perpendicular for a minute and then disappeared to the
bottom of the ocean (Lord, Lives on 137). Captain Rostron of the ship Carpathia determined the
distance to the Titanic and quickly calculated the course to answer the Titanic's distress call

The Titanic Informative Essay
Currently it's 2018, 106 years since the disaster in 1912. A little while ago, we finished the unit on
the Titanic and most of my questions were answered. Like exactly how many people were able to
survive the tragedy or why did only a few lifeboats go back to find survivors? "706 survivors" and
"the people onboard didn't want to die" were the responses I got.
There were many other interesting facts about the Titanic
, and I'm going to try to include them all in
this writing.
First things first, the Titanic was said to be "The Ship of Wonders"; and if you were onboard, you
would've thought that it truly was. Almost everything onboard was extraordinary. From the
bedrooms to the restaurants, everything looked amazing. However, that was if you

Essay about Titanic
TITANIC This paper will be about the sinking of the R.M.S. Titanic. Some people call this sinking
the greatest maritime disaster. It wasn't just the fact that the ship sank, but also all the different
circumstances that caused this ship to sink and take so many lives.
In the time period of 1900's–1915's many things happened. One
major disaster was the sinking of the Titanic. The information will be gathered from the library, a
documentary film, the Internet and personal books. From these resources the paper will explain
about how the Titanic sank, some of the people who were on the ship and how it was found after
over 70 years at the bottom of the Atlantic. People who read this paper should learn about the

( Internet) It was believed that the other 44 lifeboats were taken
off to make more room. At that time there was no rule on how many lifeboats were needed on a
ship. After the sinking, there were rules made on how many lifeboats a certain ship would have to
carry. (Internet) About four years before the Titanic was even a
thought, an author wrote about a huge ship, exactly like the Titanic. He wrote that on the ships
maiden voyage it struck an iceberg and sank, killing thousands of people. The name of this ship that
the author wrote about was called the "Titan." Many people think that the Titanic was
doomed before it even set sail for New York City. As the Titanic moved through the harbor, a huge
displacement of water caused the steamer New York to snap its mooring lines and the New York
began to slide towards the Titanic but tugboats moved the ship away before any damage could be
done. On the way to Cherbourg, France, there was a fire in boiler room number 5. All these things
happened before the ship picked up any passengers. ("R.M.S."Internet)
There were three classes of people aboard the Titanic. The
Upper class, mostly rich, business owners, aboard the ship just to say they were on the maiden
voyage. The Middle class, the people who could not afford the Upper class tickets. They were
mostly small to medium business owners who were on vacation just to

Persuasive Essay About The Titanic
No one ever thought the Titanic would sink, but it did. No one ever thought the Argistan 447 would
crash, but somehow it did. It started out as a normal day. Little did I know that this ordinary day
would turn out to be one of America's most memorable plane crashes. It was Thursday, normally I
would be heading to work, but today the President had called 12 of us in to meet him. We boarded
the plane, and I got seated next to the media director. Her job was to censor all of the media that gets
broadcasted throughout America. Liftoff was like the definition of perfect, but about halfway
through we turned off course. The plane started to shake and it started to roll. It fell to the ground
and I blacked out. When I woke up some of the survivors were huddled in a lump. The media
director was lying in a pool of crimson blood along with Senator Recken. I tried to get up, but I
couldn't, my legs wouldn't move. The health administrator got up a looked at my leg. A piece of the
plane had flown into my leg. He removed the metal and bandaged my leg. He helped me up and I
started to limp. Everyone thought my leg wouldn't make it. We made a fire with the emergency kit
and we huddled up next to it. "I'll take the first watch." The head of the police Commander Jake
Brennings. We agreed that I would take the second shift, and The FBI agent Dan Brinker would
watch until sunrise. We woke up around the middle of the night to the sound of wolves howling. The
howling got louder. We got everything we could salvage from the crash and ran. On the way, we
ended up losing the disease control officer. We ended up at a river and stopped to take a quick break.
The wolves had left us alone and we were safe. For now. When sunrise came we all introduced
ourselves. "My name Is lee anna and I am an Air Force managing officer " "My name is Charlie

Sociological Analysis Of The Titanic ' Essay
Sociological analysis of the Titanic When researching movies for my paper, I decided that the
Titanic was the perfect option. Being that the movie was based on the true event of the RMS Titanic
sinking, I knew I could also find a lot of research during the time of the Titanic to help strengthen
my paper. The movie Titanic took place in the early 1900's, a time rich in sociological issues. Their
way of life was a lot different than ours today. Some major sociological concepts that were shown
several times in the movie were, social stratification, gender inequality and sexism, inequality of
income, and discrimination. During this time period people faced huge gaps in wealth, gender, class,
and race. Gaps between the rich and poor were extreme. The wealthy were rich and the poor were in
poverty. The "
middle class
" was not a common standing within society: you were either upper or
lower class. It was very difficult to rise above the lower class standing, and easier to fall below the
upper class line (Prezi web). Men dominated in almost all social standings; voting, ownership of
land, professions, wealth, etc. Women were still viewed as "property" and in most ways, treated as
such. The gap between the upper and lower class caused discrimination amongst them. Lower–class
was treated poorly by the upper–class and seen as less worthy. In my paper I plan to include all of
these sociological issues, and clearly connect them within the movie, Titanic. The movie Titanic was

Argumentative Essay On The Titanic
It may seem cliché to have the Titanic as a wonder of the industrial world but we must recognize
that it is. Today when we hear the word "Titanic" we think of Leonardo DiCaprio and how he should
have won an Oscar for his brilliant work in the movie. Everybody knows the basic story of the
Titanic but unfortunately nobody ever goes deeper, the extent of knowledge is the movie and frankly
it's quite sad. The Titanic is a wonder of the world for many reasons and deserves to be but don't get
me wrong, it wasn't all perfect.
In the first half of the 20th century there was great competition between nations and similarly rival
shipping lines. J. Bruce Ismay, the chief executive of the White Star Line and William J. Pirrie, the
chairman of the Belfast–based

Although there was such hype for the Titanic and it was supposedly the first of its kind, it was
apparently doomed from the start. This new Olympic class ship had a double bottom and 15
watertight bulkheads, which were equipped with electric watertight doors; a switch on the bridge
could operate these separately. Shipbuilder magazine actually claimed these bulkheads as
"unsinkable" however the manufacturing of these bulkheads had a huge flaw. Even though the
bulkheads were watertight, water could leak from one compartment to another practically creating a
flood in the compartments.
We all know the Titanic sunk and unfortunately we only know of 706 out of 3300 that had reported
to be survivors. A large part of the problem that only 706 people were saved was because there was
a limited amount of lifeboats carried. There were 20 lifeboats in total, with all of these; only 1178
people could be accommodated even though when the Titanic was full, it could carry 2435
passengers. This left 1257 people unaccounted for, and on top of this, there was a crew of
approximately 900 people. Even if all the lifeboats were filled with people, there would be only
room for one–third of the ship's population. Today we think that the amount of lifeboats was
inadequate however funnily enough, the Titanic had more lifeboats on average than most ships and
also exceeded the British Board of Trade's

Reflection Paper On Titanic
Today I chose to watch "Titanic" for the very first time. I chose to watch "Titanic, because I wanted
to know what the movie was really about, maybe I might like the movie. Actually watching the
movie gives you another perspective than just knowing what the setting and theme is about. Many
people looked at me like I was crazy, when I said "I had never watched "Titanic", and wanted to
finally watch it, and see if I actually would like, so I gave it a chance. My one regret is coming into
the movie hating it and not wanting to enjoy it. I thought that the movie was going to be the worst
three hours of my life, I will never make that mistake coming into a movie already hating it before I
even watched it.
I watched the movie on my laptop in my room alone. My experience during the movie was actually
really nice and surprisingly I didn't hate the movie like I said I would. It was a very entertaining

Analysis of The Titanic, by James Cameron Essay
Within the context of film industry, the film Titanic by James Cameron belongs to epic romance/
disaster genre. The film, released in 1997, was a global box office hit because the director provided
equal importance to history, fiction and romance. To be specific, one can see that the film's plot is
based upon the history of RMS Titanic
. On the other side, the main characters including the
protagonist and the heroine (Jack Dawson and Rose DeWitt Bukater/Dawson) are fictional
characters. Besides, the element of romance between the main characters (Jack and Rose) is the
film
's main attraction. Thesis statement: The critical analysis of the film Titanic proves that the
innovative mode of storytelling (flash back and other techniques),

Within this context, the director made use of flashback technique to unearth the romantic story of
the lovers in the film. To be specific, the plot moves from present condition (say, 1996) to past (say,
1912) and to present (1996). In the opening scene, the director portrays the effort of Brock Lovett
(say, a treasure hunter) to unearth the secret behind a necklace sunk with RMS Titanic in 1912.
Gradually, the director portrays the love affair between Rose and Jack. In the end, Rose drops the
necklace into the Ocean and returns. The film ends with a fictional reunion between the lovers. B.
Acting The film's casting is related to historical and fictional characters. For instance, some of real
travelers in the RMS Titanic are portrayed in the film. This is helpful for the viewers to identify the
historical element of the film. On the other side, the protagonist and the heroine are fictional
characters. For instance, Jack and Rose, (the protagonist and his lady love) are fictional characters
who inculcated the element of romance in the film. One can see that the director's decision to caste
Leonardo DiCaprio as Jack Dawson (say, the protagonist) is one of the elements behind the
commercial success of the film. Besides, DiCaprio's youthful exuberance suits his character in the
film. On the other side, Kate Winslet's character as Rose DeWitt Bukater is apt

Persuasive Essay On The Titanic
Titanic: The Unsinkable Ship, is a tragic story we all know well. Ironically enough, as you know, the
Titanic (the unsinkable ship) sank; however, the lost and lived lives of the people aboard the
tremendous ship when it sank are, sadly, stories we do not know. All of them , rich and poor, were in
the same boat, literally, when it crashed into that murderous glacier. However, is the gun the
murderer if a man pulled its trigger and the bullet found its awesomely sweet embrace in the chest of
another. What I mean is, the death of 1,503 souls could have been saved if pride would have been
set aside and warnings heeded. One of the souls lost was Sydney Samuel Jackson, a lawyer
originally from south Africa who was on a trip to Montreal with his wife, and her mother and sisters
. Jacobsohn was born in Cape Town, South Africa on the 23 of October, 1869. Sydney had 7 other
siblings, not including himself. The passage says "Sydney, his parents and several siblings later
moved to England." He would soon meet Amy Frances Cohen Christy, who would later become his
wife until his tragic death,along with so many others in the icy seas, on the Titanic.

As the passage states many of the men and women were, " in the smoking room... gamblers and

doors and in the mic of a radio, the Titanic conversed with man other ships. One in specific being
the Californian which warned the Titanic of icebergs in the area; however, the Titanic would not

What Is The Theme Of The Titanic Essay
Titanic is a wonderful romantic tale. Titanic motion picture is extraordinary compared to other
romantic tale that I have observed. The film occurred in 1912, on the well known ship Titanic in the
Atlantic Sea.The film starts with the old Rose talking about what happened to her on board the
Titanic boat. She evidently survived from the greatest sink of this "unsinkable" ship at that time. She
at that point thinks back and discloses towards her story in the way that she recalls it. Titanic turned
into a tremendous hit when it was appeared in the huge screen. Jack and Rose we're youthful
darlings isolated by social class, yet bound to locate each other on the first venture of the
"unsinkable" ship, which is Titanic. That was extraordinary compared to other movies that ended up
noticeably as one of the best acquiring films. The impacts that they made in this motion picture are
staggering. The set was additionally great. The insides of the ship were pleasantly done.The theme
that I have chosen in this movie is love conquers all.

Jack and Fabrizio go to the bow of the ship. They experience the amazing stature over the water, the
energize of the speed and turn in their appearances. Jack hollers how he feels: "I'm king of the
world!" Then the camera pulls in one of the film's most gigantic shots, revealing the Titanic in all its
size, Jack and all the others appeared as ants. From the intensity of a man's energized experience we
come to view it as such a little thing upon the ship,and amidst the ocean.Cameron makes this same
point later when, also as Jack and Rose complete their warmed lovemaking, he cuts hard to a fix of
the Titanic from far above. We go from two bodies taking in considerable vitality to the master plan
of the ship, its gigantic adequately brilliant decks irrelevant to the dark sea surrounding

Titanic Thesis Statement
The Titanic may be one of the most famous and well known shipwrecks of our time. Just about
everyone learns of the tragedy in school and how it was a complete accident. Information has been
found that point to the tragedy not being what we think it is. There is evidence that shows that the
ship thought to be the Titanic may actually be named the Olympic, and may have been used in an
insurance scam. This evidence includes pictures showing different amounts of port holes and even
people working on the ship coming forward. It has yet to be proven if this is 100% true, but most
would agree that all of this points to it being true. Everyone knows the story of the Titanic. The ship
was on its maiden voyage when it hit an iceberg and sank, leading to the death of more than 1,500
people ("Titanic" A+E Networks). It was a horrible event, but it may have all been planned by the
company that owned the ship. White Star Line owned both the Titanic and its sister ship, the
Olympic. The

Why is that they had such a difficult time finding people to work on the ship if so many people we're
out of work? It may have been that there was talk in the town of the switch. With the rich and
powerful, it may have been that they were friends with the high ranking people who knew that the
titanic was going to sink and were warned. An example of one of these men is J.P. Morgan. He
canceled his trip on the Titanic just a few days before its voyage, saying that it was due to sickness.
A short while after he was photographed in France with his wife in seemingly good health. One
theory is that he was informed about the scheduled crash and found another way to his destination.
One where he knew he was safe (Shan Dawson's YouTube

Essay on Titanic
Titanic – Original Writing
Titanic, 882 feet long, 92 feet broad, 45000 tons register, 66000 tons displacement and 175 feet
high. The biggest and most luxurious ship known to mankind, and she was sitting right in front of
me. She looked even bigger in real life and I felt great anticipation and excitement. A chance of a
lifetime, I was one of the few lucky enough to be chosen to actually work onboard the Titanic.
It was just an hour until the Titanic would set sail on her maiden voyage and I felt I little nervy
about boarding her. I decided that the only way to settle my nerves was to consume a moderate
amount of brandy. I entered the local bar, which overlooked Southampton dock where the

I squeezed back through the crowd to a small opening at the bar. I ordered my brandy and whilst
waiting for it I listened in on a conversation between two men who looked like engineers. One of the
men was arguing that the Titanic was "too heavy and large to float" whilst the other man argued that
it was "unsinkable due to its water tight compartments". I turned back to the bar and drank my
brandy in one. I'd had enough of the smell and the noise in the bar and made a quick exit.
As I approached the Titanic I grabbed hold of my bags and took a deep breath. This voyage was to
be the experience of a lifetime and hopefully the start of a career that I had always been looking for.
As I clambered up the stairs with my bags, I looked back at the dock for one last time, as I would
not see it in months. The first look of Titanic's interior blew me away; it was like walking into a
floating palace. As I walked around the ship I was amazed at all the modern technology they had
onboard, it even had a heated swimming pool, along with other things like a squash court and a
gym. By the time I got back to my starting point I was exhausted. I decided the best thing to do to
avoid all the passengers, was to relax in the first class dining saloon. The saloon was not yet open to
the boarding passengers and

Titanic Essay example
One of the greatest news headlines of all times was actually never supposed to happen. The
shocking news of the sunken ocean liner the Titanic shocked millions. The sinking itself probably
wouldn't have even mattered except that the builders themselves said that the ship simply could not
sink. The news not only hit the United States, but countries everywhere were saddened to hear the
news of "The Unsinkable" and its grave end. In 1907 a man named J. Bruce Ismay, who was the
manager of White Star Lines went to a dinner party at the mansion of the wealthy William James
Pierre. Pierre was a chairman to one of the largest shipbuilding companies in Belfast, Harland and
Wolff. At dinner the two discussed luxury ships like the Lusitania and the

the lookouts of the Titanic, which was moving around 20 ½ knots, sight a gigantic iceberg straight in
their course. The warning bell is immediately sounded. Quick after, Sixth Officer Moody relays the
message to First Officer Murdoch who calls the engine room and tells the engineers to turn off the
engines and turn the ship hard. Thirty–seven seconds of heart stopping time later, the iceberg strikes
the ship on the starboard bow side. The impact is not noticed by most of the passengers. After some
time it is reported to the Capitan that the ship is taking on water rapidly, flooding the holds and
boiler rooms. Thomas Andrews, Capitan Smith's assistant, calculates how much longer the ship can
stay afloat and the estimation was two and a half hours only. The ship sends out distress signals, and
many ships hear and prepare to assist the Titanic. At 12:20 A.M. orders are given to have women
and children start to board lifeboats. Most lifeboats only left holding only a fraction of what they
were capable of. The last words heard by neighboring ships by the Titanic were heard at 1:45 A.M.
Still holding over one thousand five hundred people, the ships head sinks under water. All of the
lights on the Titanic go out, and a huge roar is heard as all of the objects not bolted to the floor fly
towards the submerged bow. At that point the ship breaks in two, and approximately two minutes
later, the remaining stern settles again, fills with water and slowly sinks into the ocean.
