Gregor Mendel wearied the garden pea as the susceptible in his hereditary studies. In antithesis to anterior cultivate breeders, hellos review complex stop-blending characteristics of the field pea. Mendel applied mathematics, followed the scientific means really closely, plus kept thoughtful albums. Hellos upshots supported a particulate speculation of endowment, efficiently disproving the blending idea of patrimony. Further formats of endowment get been found hence Mendel’s indigenous gift.…

Mark Bauerlein, author of The Dumbest Generation, argues in his controversial novel that America's rapidly developing technology and our growing dependence on it is destroying the minds of our youth. He alleges that today’s youth are losing the ability to think, as we slowly rely more and more on the comforts of computerized algorithms to think for ourselves. Despite my own biased view of Bauerleins viewpoints from the perspective as a literate and well-worded 16 year old living in an arguably…

In this paper I will be showing what my Reformed worldview is in contrast with other worldviews of this time. A worldview is how one views the world. This view will differ from person to person depending on how they see this world. For example a secular humanist will have a different view than I would as a Christian because I am looking at the world through the lens of scripture while the secular humanist would be looking at this world through the lens of science and the idea of God being…

belief is best explained in the opening of the Communist Manifesto, where Marx claims that "the history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles" (Marx, 158). According to DM, history progresses through a process of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis—to borrow Hegel's terminology for the dialectical method. At the beginning of society, property ownership created the initial ruling class, who later subjugated the first lower class, who ultimately ignited a revolution…

Bessie Head’s “A Question of Power”: The Novel of Soul-Journey Abstract: In this paper, I propose to examine the nature of the myths which Bessie Head uses in special and unique way to establish a special signification for her novel, A Question of Power and the relation the myths hold to the universal question of Good and Evil. Bessie Head amalgamates myth and religion. Two aspects of her attitude is highlighted. One is, myths express the evolutionary nature of man’s psyche and the other is,…

Alfred Hitchcock was a film director from England who moved the United States in 1939. He was famously known as the “Master of Suspense”. Hitchcock’s golden years of his cinema career were from the 1950’s to the 1960’s. During this time, he made various famous films, such as Vertigo, North by the Northwest, and Psycho. When we compare these films it’s hard to find something they might have in common. Each film has different lighting effects, colors, and types of shots. Hitchcock utilizes mise en…

Handmaid’s Tale, he says “The Handmaid's Tale is the kind of programme made about Christians that anti-Semites would make about Jews. It demonizes 'the other.' Despite the constant citation of Scripture, the portrayal of Christianity in the drama is the antithesis of what real Christianity is. Real Christianity is not religious hypocrites enforcing their perverted teachings through the barrel of a gun.” While Robertson is right that real Christianity is not “religious…

To live in a brand new place and feel at home is difficult, but to do it alone is much more difficult. I wander the streets constantly trying to find something or someone that can ground me to this place that I am now living in. Walking around these cobble stone streets. I constantly look around for something that reminds me of home. I try to align something from Florence like the bittersweet smell of coffee, the egg glazed pastries and the warm smell of fresh bread to my place at home. The…

Aeschylus’ trilogy of plays, the Oresteia, deals with gender roles in ancient Athens, particularly through the chorus in the third play, the Eumenides. The expectation of women in Athenian society included caring for and watching over the home and family, and also listening to the men, as they were of higher status. The Erinyes in the Oresteia, however, are female characters independently willed and portrayed as violent and powerful. They later become the Eumenides, hidden underground and…

I absolutely love to write. Therefore, I habitually also love to read— it’s my favorite way to understand other people and to help them understand me. When stories get written down, anyone can comprehend them, especially with a miracle like braille. Writing lets both adults and children alike communicate complex ideas and feelings that humans just can’t otherwise show— hence, why I adore words so much. My favorite example of communicating that “complex emotion” part is a book called Freaks Like…
