Essay #2: Controversy Analysis “The worst loneliness is to not be comfortable with yourself,” famous American author of 19th century Mark Twain said. Problems with self-esteem and confidence in yourself are very common and usually underestimated by society, while in fact it can be the reason for such consequences as domestic violence, drug or alcohol abuse, depression, anxiety or even suicide. Coyle’s short story “Fear itself” shows how Kara’s low dignity led the girl to an unhealthy relationship with surrounding her people. The main character of short story “Fear itself” by Katie Coyle, Kara, can be presented as a victim of her own attitude to herself and consequences of it.…
Although this seminar was 4 years ago, I don’t believe the contents of that tragic story will ever leave my head. The police officer told us about a female teenager who was in a relationship with a boy. The girl was very loyal to the boy, however he would get aggravated due to the smallest imperfections. If the girl would look at another boy, other than the boyfriend for even a small moment, he would verbally abuse her using the most degrading…
In October of 2015, the RISD Museum showcased the work of two Turner Prize winning artists, Martin Boyce and Luke Fowler: Boyce’s work as a four-month exhibit of primarily sculpture and Fowler’s as a single screening of his film All Divided Selves. The two artists are contemporaries both living in Glasgow, but their similarities go beyond generation and nationality; they both present everyday reality in a way that makes us question our assumptions, while suggesting undertones of fear and anxiety and using motifs of Irish and Scottish folk culture. Despite these connections between the works of Boyce and Fowler, which could be explored further, Fowler’s film is an independent work that can stand alone within the context of British contemporary art. Following traditions of filmmaking in the latter half of the 20th century, All Divided Selves explores the dichotomies of how reality is filtered through the mind, while simultaneously involving and alienating the viewer. Filmed roughly in the style of a documentary, All Divided Selves is composed of archived clips of the psychiatrist R. D. Laing, the subject of the film, his pertinent contemporaries, and Luke Fowler’s original footage, edited by Fowler and overlaid…

Hearts and Minds begins with footage on a village that is northwest of Saigon in Vietnam named Hung Dinh. Without any type of introduction the film starts off in this setting and leaves its viewer unexpectant of what is to come. You see the activities of farming, children running around, and other normal day to day activites. What seems as a calm and normal environment for villagers to live there lives has a unexpected future in hold. The documentary follows this by showing rare footage dating back to the mid 1900s of people who were interviewed in all sorts of subjects but the main topic seemed to be communism.…
As human beings, we all go through developmental cycles, but during our teenage cycle we come across problems which in my opinion results in teen relational aggression towards one another. Relational aggression among boys is typically physical. But between girls it becomes relational, leaving them feeling rejected, “less than” and with a damaged sense of self. Boys grow out of this phase by resolving issues physically, but girls don’t. Girls usually take out their anger among one another by bad mouthing and putting each other down.…
What normally take place in an abusive relationship is a brainwashing period and a period of entrapment and fear. These elements and more aren’t just found in adult couples alone, as most would believe but it is very prominent in teen relationships. In the video “But He Loves Me” the cause of the abuse might have been due to Charlie’s mental stability and/or because Cassie was naïve and afraid. A very possible cause of the abuse between Charlie and Cassie is Charlie’s mental state. To most people Charlie would be considered an extremist and mental unstable.…
Intimate partner violence cast such a large net over our society. This is what struck by most in the power and control documentary and the Ted Talk. Intimate partner violence cuts across all backgrounds and seriocomic classes and can affect anyone no matter their status. The aspect of both the Ted Talk and the documentary I found most striking was how almost all intimate partner violence fallows the same pattern from the background of the abuser to the tactics of power and control they employ which then cycle back to impacting their children. In both the documentary and the Ted talk the background of the abusers seemed to be very similar.…
