Imagine a world without creativity. Imagine a world without inspiration. Imagine a world without self expression. These elements of individualism appear from what are known as the arts. Making their first appearance in youth education, the arts are vital to a child’s growth and development. But as time rolls on, the arts have been trashed, beaten, and thrown into a worthless junk pile. Schools are treating the arts like they are lambs to the slaughter. The next big hit songwriter could be…

fantasy, or illusion might be his or her most important reality in life - maybe sometimes in the future. The movie itself just seemed like a mere or an ordinary dream - like how every normal human being experience a dream in their sleeps. However, in this movie, there is arguably more to it than just an ordinary dream, in terms of its meaning. In fact, from my personal experience, I have had many dreams, that actually turn out to be realities, at one point in my life. For example, I would…

Interlopers we can see how Saki gives us inside knowledge by showing us how two men feel about each other. “ Each had hate in their heart and murder uppermost in his mind.” This shows us how the two men thought. In the interlopers: A Short Film, all we can grasp is that they don't likes each others, because it only shows us what they say to each other. So that's why in the story it was third person omniscient and in the film it was third person objective. You can see how we narrate ourselves in…

Absolute Materialism In general, the phrase “materialism” is used to refer to metaphysical theories regarding the nature of reality. Absolute materialism holds that matter is the only reality in the world whose conditions and activities render meaning to every event in the universe (Knight, 2012). Put simply, absolute materialism commits to the following principle; that all that exists is ultimately physical – that matter contains electrons, protons, atoms, and molecules, all of which are bound…

Renee Descartes writes on the uncertainty that he has of his memories and experiences in his paper titled “The Cogito”, which was written in 1643. The main focus of this paper is Descartes coming to terms that nothing is really certain other than the fact that Descartes himself exists and thinks. Descartes comes to this uncertainty since he believes that he has no reason to believe in any sense experience that he has. Descartes’ lack of belief of the external world is clear when he writes that…

Can we truly see our external world? Am I typing this essay right now? Do I know there is a coffee cup sitting on the table next to my laptop? These are all questions that G.E. Moore attempts to answer in his essay, “Some Main Problems of Philosophy” (Moore 1958). Moore proposes a then-revolutionary idea of “Sense Data,” (28) which represents all the data received through the senses, hence the name “Sense Data.” In this essay, I plan to decipher the nebulous world of Sense Data, and deconstruct…

Is seeing really believing? The question of whether or not photographers go too far when they “stage” or “manipulate” a photograph’s scene, has been an ongoing issue throughout our history. When this topic became part of the discussion in class, I immediately held the belief that presenting a fake photo was wrong. To me, it seemed very cut and dry; honesty versus dishonesty. After all, it would be against a moral code of ethics for a person to do such a terrible thing. If photographers got…

Realism, in literature, explains ordinary individuals that deal with moral decisions one makes when faced with specific problems. James’s “The Art of Fiction” and Howells’s “Editha” illustrate realism as a representation of reality of the times. The middle-class characters, setting, and moral dilemma all represent the depiction of realism in “Editha.” In “Editha” George is a middle-class character. He is a typical example of what embodies realism. George is a minister recently…

The realistism of Norman Rockwell For six decades, through two World Wars, the Great Depression, unprecedented national prosperity and radical social change, Norman Rockwell held a mirror up to America and reflected its identity through his illustrations. The images that Rockwell produced are very realistic, sometimes he also creates settings and suggests situations for the people in his paintings based on photographs. (examples shown in Image 6&7) “There were details, accidents of light, which…
