poems. After moving to Chelsea, England, he wrote for several newspapers and he also edited ’The Woman’s World’ magazine. He had published some smaller works, until he wrote ’The Picture of Dorian Gray” which appeared in Lippincott’s Magazine in 1890. He later added more chapters to his work and ’The Portrait of Dorian Gray’ was published as a book in 1891. He lived in Paris, when he wrote ’Salom’ and with the help of Madame Bernhardt, the play was presented in the Palace Theatre. After several…

Actions and Objectives as Seen in Medea – Ana Mulino I truly enjoyed watching the performance of Medea, directed by Dorian Lang. Most, if not all actions and objectives portrayed by the actors, specially Nadien Chu who played Medea herself, were crystal clear from an audience’s perspective. As Medea goes through her super objective of accomplishing revenge against her husband, the way she acts towards the other characters are essential to her success or failure. A key factor in Medea’s journey…

The central epitome beyond the “perfect city” in Plato’s republic relies on validity and human excellence. As Plato, he had much faith in the analogy that knowledge was highly present in many humans from birth, and the wisdom within was rather deific and god-like. In other words, all people have the capability and work ethic to operate and contribute efficiently, which meant intellect, had no experientialism throughout nature. While analyzing his own work through the views of Socrates jocularity…

Words are really just a sequence of noises to which humanity has assigned meaning. Some of these constructed meanings hold different levels of significance to different people. People will try to latch on to whatever meaning they can find because it is reassuring to have something, even as seemingly insignificant as a single word, with which they can find a personal connection. One word that has personal significance to me is “pretentiousness”. “Pretentiousness” is a noun, originating from the…

officer has the right to use deadly force. For example, in the Michael Brown case in Ferguson, Missouri, Brown was shot by police officer Darren Wilson after an altercation ensued over control of Wilson’s gun after Wilson stopped Brown and his friend Dorian Johnson because they matched the descriptions of robbers in the area. Brown and Johnson then fled after Wilson’s gun went off and Wilson chased them. Brown then turned around and charged at Wilson; Wilson fearing for his safety fired his…

Fetch quests are the devil. Overview: Dragon Age inquisition is a better than Dragon Age 2 but still doesn't live up to Dragon Age Origins. The visuals are the best in the series with characters actually looking human (even though they always look like they've been in the rain) and each person you meet has a little personality which is brought on by the stellar voice acting and facial expressions. Gameplay: The gameplay is quite varied this time round, you can either play it like DA2 with…

formations (synthetic and non-synthetic). From the list of 462 heptatonic scales, there are a limited number of them that contain a different intervallic relationship. All these scales are going to be associated to a parent scale, for example, the Dorian mode is related to the major scale; they both share the same interval relation and, although inverted, in essence they are equal. Since each heptatonic parent scale derives seven modes (like the major scale), the total amount of parent scales…

Dorian Darden Professor L. Brooks COMP 105 3 December 2014 Paper 5 Have you ever been walking along a street and seen a person that caught your eye? You are not exactly sure why they have, you have never talked to them or even made contact of any kind yet you feel an attraction to them. Unbeknownst to you, your brain has made a snap judgement based off of “thin-slicing”. The book Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking by Malcolm Gladwell explores this idea of thin-slicing. Blink is…

2) ''This arrogance spoilt all their skill in my eyes, so that, putting myself in the place of the oracle, and asking myself whether I would rather be what I am or what they are, know what they know, or know that I know nothing, I very readily answered, for myself and the god, that I had rather remain as I am.'' – Rousseau (pg 3 pr 3). Up until 1799, George Washington was the president of the United States, and today Kanye West and Donald Trump are running for presidency; it is the time and age…
