Ambiguity

The painting that I chose is the painting I made for my final project. I chose this painting because it was the one that I had the most enjoyable time making and thinking about. It was backed by research that I really liked to learn about. Making this painting I spent a lot of time thinking before I laid paint down. The research I looked into was the surrealist painters and looking into the fresco paintings and codex writing by the Mexica. When looking into surrealism I was drawn to Magritte’s…

the author has complete control over the style, the phrasing, the pace and the elements that they believe should be omitted. ‘’All About Suicide’’ is a short story written by Argentinian author Luisa Valenzuela in 1967. By using a combination of ambiguity and predisposing the readers to a specific train of thought. Valenzuela manipulates her lectures in such a way as to lead them on a false path. Furthermore, knowing the time and setting of the story is another important element to take into…

He does not take into account the possibility of a person who, while being unlawful, remains just. If moral virtue is attained through habit and one’s morality tells you no to follow a certain law, have you committed a vice? This is one of the ambiguities that lie within Aristotle’s…

As everyone knows, on the TPLF's manifesto outline showed that apart from capitalism and imperialism, the number one enemy of the Tigray people is Amhara. Actually, this is a pattern of massively murdering and displacing the Amharas for the last 27 years by the TPLF and its agents in every region in the country, but the recent gruesome massively attacked and cut off the young boy's private flesh in Benishangul is very disturbed and savagely cruel. This barbarous act emphatically shows that the…

Critical democratic pedagogies understand educative or learning processes as a continuous, two-way, dialectic process. These processes are constructed around the personal experiences of the students and allow critical thinking and action. All that, in order to help students grow (Drinkwater, 2014). This kind of pedagogies give students the opportunity to speak out and be heard. That means too that student’s previous experiences and interest are taken into account in the classroom for their…

While preforming the required community service hours for this coursework, as students we were also asked to read a few articles using SAGE Journals that are related to our experience. The service that I preformed was completed in my own community and found these next three articles appropriate for the services. The first article is an entry from James Griffith’s “A Decade of Helping: Community Service Among Recent High School Graduates Attending College”. Followed by “Volunteer Engagement and…

George Sand’s Indiana and Mikhail Lermontov’s A Hero of Our Time interrogate the conflict between individual and collective identity in the nineteenth century through presenting the individual as a site of ambiguity and hybridity that disrupts the supposed coherence and homogeneity of the collective identities cultivated by national and colonial power relations. Collective identity attempts to bound and border individuals within binary categories, presenting groups defined by national, ethnic,…

pondering the emotion of sadness, “how was that put across so it could be felt in all its lowering immediacy?” (109). With this, McEwan begins to explore the barrier, language, that prevents a full understanding of another’s emotions. He points out the ambiguity in the way that an emotion should be “put across” by asking for a set of guidelines. McEwan analyzes the idea that, in a story, an emotion must be presented in a way that it “could be felt” by the reader. With these observations, he…

rule of lenity. The “venerable rule” of lenity stands for the proposition that criminal statutes be strictly constructed. When evaluating the meaning of a criminal statute, ambiguity and doubt should be “resolved in favor of the defendant, whose liberty is at stake.” Mr. Blues’ case concerns exactly the kind of ambiguity and doubt the rule of lenity seeks to resolve.
