opening to my presentation, there are myriad things in Act 5 of Hamlet of literary import: Hamlet’s interaction with the gravediggers, Yorick’s mini-scene, and the scuffle between Hamlet and Laertes over Ophelia’s grave, to name a few from Act 5, Scene 1. However important these aspects are, they all have somewhat obvious significance to the rest of the play as a whole: The gravedigger and Yorick can be attributed to Hamlet’s questioning of death and human worth, while the Ophelia scene brings…

Is it possible to recreate a historical event through music? Daniel Bukvich attempts this very feat in his piece Symphony No.1(In Memoriam, Dresden, 1945). This piece of music has been the topic of many discussions in the musical world, and I’m sure that it would be a hot topic in the philosophy world as well. In particular, I think that Aristotle and Leo Tolstoy would have a lot to say about this piece. Aristotle’s definition of art focuses on humans’ ability to mimic real life and create a…

was close to shopping at about three miles and was fifteen miles from my wife work. House 2 House 2 was $50,000 more expensive than House 1 mainly because it was located closer to the downtown, was more secluded, and it had two more acreage than House 1.

In the midst of the first scene, it is featured in the stage notations that the fight escalates to involving several passers by, who were…

In Scene 1, I learnt that the people of Venice valued justice and upheld it in their society. The scene begins with the entrance of the different characters – the Duke, the leading noblemen and citizens, the officers of the court, Antonio and his friends and other attendants. They are dressed in formal and dignified attire for the solemn occasion. This grand entourage highlights the importance of court trials and as such justice in the city of Venice. The obligation to uphold and serve…

Life can have meaning when it is lived with God and life without God is vanity. Adam and Eve experienced vanity the moment they stopped believing God. The theology of Genesis 1 is of work which begins with a theology of creation and goes on Genesis 2 where man worked in the garden of Eden. This work brought fulfillment in Genesis 2 and pain in Genesis 3 because God cursed the ground that man works on. Humans males experiences and find their highest us fulfillment in their work (job). Work is…

One of the major claims of this writing is that the mind is more knowable and certain than the…
