Jung did: examine both the positive and negative energy linked to a archetype. Reaching this point in our lives where we can see and accept both the good and bad sides of all archetypes is known as the principle of entropy (the third dynamic of our psyche that Jung describes). Entropy, in physical science terms, is the amount of random energy in the universe. Jung’s theory states that, during the course of our life, this energy decreases as the opposing forces in our life come together and…
Peng Wen et al. [50] used a novel index MLDoA to identify different anesthetic states of a patient during surgery. Based on the new index MLDoA, the assessment of depth of anesthesia (DoA) for a patient can be clearly monitored. Firstly, a modified Bayesian wavelet threshold is proposed to de-noise the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. Secondly, the Hurst exponent is obtained to classify four states of anesthesia: deep anesthesia, moderate anesthesia, light anesthesia and awake. Finally, the…
Many contemporary artists derive their themes from Anglo-Saxon texts. One instance of this is the presence of ofermode, or too much pride, in both the anonymous poem, The Battle of Maldon, written in A.D. 991 and George Orwell’s modern story, Animal Farm. In The Battle of the Maldon, the pirates succeed in using Earl Byrtnoth’s pride in order to allow them onto his land despite the Earl knowing it will most likely have devastating effects on his men and the people he defended. In Animal Farm,…
the novel. In a world of death and darkness, their solitary souls hold each other together. This is a subtle reference to the biblical tale of Jonah being swallowed by a whale. The father and son are forced to survive in a world of purgatory and entropy, much like the stomach of a whale. This illustrates the desolate world in which the pair live in. This quote demonstrates the theme of mortality. Death surrounds the pair, and the world itself is slowly dying. The quote highlights the fact…
Preface In a world of chaos, entropy and disorder, human is in a constant search for healing. This little story provides some insights into how one character pursued his healing. By setting a positive path for his life, the main character Jason found a way to navigate through the many challenges of his life and moved beyond the adversities he faced in everyday living. The Richest Writer in the World contains inspirational thoughts that helped Jason unstuck himself from his many hard spots.…
He believed that everything was predictable in old physics, the world in thermodynamics is full of change. Boltzmann established the relationship between entropy and the statistical analysis of molecular motion. He said other mathematicians never added chaos to the equation. Boltzmann captured mortality in an equation. It would drive him insane and he would suffer the same fate as Cantor trying to prove it…
The Hand That Mocked Them: An Analysis of Percy Bysshe Shelley’s “Ozymandias” The most recognizable of Percy Bysshe Shelley’s poems is “Ozymandias”, and yet despite this the poem is often discussed in terms disassociated from its origins. For example, few who have read the work know that it was conceived during a mere contest, one of the many staged between Shelley and a fellow poet (“Overview”). Even fewer can recall the poet’s name, Horace Smith, and his competing piece of the same name.…
the secret of success. Overall, what is happening on Earth is that matter is becoming ordered into larger wholes. So the theme or meaning or purpose of life is the ordering or integration or, a process that is driven by the physical law of Negative Entropy. ‘Holism’, which the dictionary defines as ‘the tendency in nature to form wholes’ and ‘teleology’, which is defined as ‘the belief that purpose and design are a part of nature’, are both terms that recognise this ‘tendency’ towards…
accommodated by crowding of existing houses rather than new construction developments. Existing houses are often extended or divided illegally so that they can be rented to migrants and used by extended families (Genemo, 2012). Over the years, urban sprawl has directly contributed to the degradation and decline of natural environment resources. It also reduces farm land and productivity in city leading to social loss and open spaces (Haregewin, 2005). In addition, urban sprawl leads to regional…
Chapter 3 Objectives Distinguish among lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and ecosphere. -The lithosphere consists of the crust and upper mantle of the Earth. In the lithosphere there is nonrenewable fossil fuels, minerals, soil, and renewable soil chemicals. -The hydrosphere consists of the Earth’s water. This includes liquid water, ice, and water vapor. -The atmosphere consists of the fine membrane of air surrounding the planet. -The ecosphere is also known as the biosphere. It includes…
