nothing at all, but rather asserts that we should act through nonaction implying in a sense to go along with the course of nature (Chapter 63, pg. 194). As Laozi says, “the Way does nothing yet nothing is left undone” (Chapter 37, pg. 179). Therefore, harmony will come from letting actions come naturally as opposed to forcibly taking action. To further explain the concept of nonaction, Laozi uses a metaphor of water to demonstrate the idea of wuwei. In chapter eight of the Daodejing, Laozi…

modestly and must utilize their fortunes to improve the living of other citizens. Carnegie shares his experiences, and Carnegie said that the unequal distribution of wealth causes economic and social issues. Proper administration of wealth can create harmony and brotherhood among rich and poor. It is easy to see the change, and illustrating one change can demonstrate everything which is responsible for causing the change. Extra wealth, we say that "surplus wealth" can be disposed of in different…

What is the meaning of Dao? How does Daoism view human nature? What is the human predicament, or problem, according to Daoist teachings, and how do we, as humans, achieve harmony with the Dao?

The song has an alternative sound, with a fast, rhythmic tempo and an edgy harmony alternating between a slightly downbeat tune and more upbeat, higher-pitched singing by lead vocalist Keith Jeffery.

I learned many things in experiencing three performances. I attended the King Stephen Op.117 by Beethoven, Piano Concerto No.1 in C major, Op.15 by Beethoven, and lastly The Firebird by Stravinsky. These three pieces of music have many different and similar characteristic. In this paper I’m going to discuss how the different instruments are used to make different tones. How these different tones can create different images and how these images can create different emotions and tensions. My…

Eric Whitacre’s music is undoubtedly compelling. One can find themselves to be struck by its uncommon beauty and wonder why it is that being exposed to this music can affect them so heavily. After an in-depth analysis of several of Whitacre’s choir pieces, it is clear that his complex chord structures are key to his incredibly unique sound. Whitacre uses strong, unexpected chords that demand resolution and possess an intense energy. This paper presents an examination of Whiatcre’s musical…

Eric Whitacre is a contemporary choral composer who is known for his unique compositions that utilize harmonies as well as dissonance. The particular piece that I had a wonderful aesthetic experience with is Hope, Faith, Life, Love. This beautiful song has a total of eight words which are Hope, Faith, Life, Love, Dream, Joy, and Truth. These words are the first and last four words of a longer poem by E.E. Cummings. The beauty of this piece lays in three different places, E.E. Cummings poetry,…

For now, let us avoid any further metaphysical gymnastics of the arguments of Bad Company Objections. But if we abandon the search of the acceptability conditions, what lesson could we learn from Bad Company Objection? There is an analogous matter which Ebert and Shapiro (1999, p.298) labelled ‘Good Company’. Assuming we have successfully constructed an account of acceptability which helps us to rule out ‘bad’ principles; there is another question that neo-Fregean logicists to answer. Why is it…

have had more of the opportunity to create harmony with others because of who I am. The same thing can happen to others. We can have such a dramatic change from a C note to a G note. Sure, everyone knew the previous person they were, but because of a certain experience, we are someone different. Because of that change, many lose their close friends because of their "key change." Everyone on the earth is their own note. Some notes create a better harmony than others, and when a mix of people are…
