Children are born as a clean slate and they become how we mould them. Those tiny beings do not know what is the so called “correct” behaviour in a particular situation and it is our duty as parents to let them know about the same. However, many parents get really strict and handle their kids very sternly if they are unable to master a socially accepted behavior. These days, a video of a small girl being punished and beaten is going viral as it is really disturbing to see the little one being…

When I was a child, Disney Princesses like Belle and Cinderella were my idols. There was some kind of independence and strength found within the characters. However, in retrospect I cannot help but notice a male gaze that is ominous over both of these films. The female characters are presented in a way that fits the mold of stereotypes and in turn objectifies them as prizes to be won. Cinderella and Belle became no more than beautiful damsels in distress. Then instead of saving themselves, a…

Lady Mary Wroth was an exceptional poet of the sixteenth century who wrote passionately about relationships between women and men. Wroth was unlike women of her time, because she had a formal education whereas many other women did not have this opportunity. This advantageous educational opportunity allowed Wroth to develop her literary skills beyond many poets of her time. Due to Wroth’s writing about relationships that seemed to resemble real-life relationships, some people of her time heavily…

In Michel Foucault’s “Discipline and Punish”, Foucault creates an example of a seventeenth century soldier versus an eighteenth century soldier, and how the latter can be made and transformed into what the former needed to be born as. Our academic system follows this same structure…

Every day, Timmy would help his mother do house chores and volunteer in cleaning the neighborhood for the community. He would always think about others before even thinking about himself, and he would always think about giving rather than receiving. Timmy was the ideal child in the eyes of the people, but he had one problem. He…

Nicholas Hostetler Ms. Birkhead 20th Century Literature 24 August 2015 The 1960's was a tough time for America racism and tensions were high between the whites and the blacks. This sense of alienation is also present in The Lords of Discipline by Pat Conroy, which was also set in the 1960's. Will McLean is in his first year at the South Carolina Military Institute and is already experiencing the tough life as a plebe. Will turns to the help of his friends to join together…

Within good writing, there is a distinct balance between creativity and discipline. Strunk (1918) argues, “In exposition and in argument, the writer must likewise never lose his hold upon the concrete, and even when he is dealing with general principles he must give particular instances of their application” (p. 23). To write an effective analytical paper, a writer should convey ideas by being conscious of mechanical and grammatical mistakes but should also develop personal style and creativity…

Donna Richel Sarong; Kate Dianne Opimo A Review on Foucault’s book Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison Foucault first attracts yet directly establishes what the chapter is all about through thick description about the process of amende honorable, a violent torture in front of the public experienced by Damiens the regicide on 1757. He has brought us back to that time when the act of punishment is still a public spectacle and is ‘horrifying’. One crime could automatically be equaled…

Beep beep beep beep! The alarm reads 5:30 time to get up she thrust her hand towards the alarm clock to turn it off. She leans over and gets up slowly yawning and stretching out her nights rest, thank god it’s Friday she says joyfully only half a day of work and I’m done, weekend here I come. As she’s almost done getting ready she remembers to bring her rig boots and fire retardant suit, today there going out to a rig site and look around at what the riggers do all day and what equipment they…
