their senses (Cloves Movement, Hamm’s Sight, Parents Hearing) or society in general considering the characters current suspension in a non-realistic world. ‘End Game’ tries to show through these that isolation is a situation that is impossible for a human to maintain their life and sanity in. This association of isolation with inevitable death and gloom is one of the key ideas in the text that is presented to the…

A theory written by Plato, ‘The Allegory of The Cave’ explains the concern of human perception. Plato differentiates between people who mistake sensory knowledge for the truth and people who really do see the truth. The material world is just partial pictures of true images. Relying on physical senses alone, makes you “effectively blind”, according to Socrates. The world we see is a reflection of what the world represents, not a very accurate representation. Plato claimed that, “Knowledge…

It is said that no man is an island, and no man stands alone. Meaning, true human existence cannot prevail positively or productively without the dynamics of society. Yet, this concept is very much two faced. While a man needs to exist in society, cocooning himself in its support and sense of belonging, too much social pressure can lead to the most disastrous endings and as society remains blind of the influences of the world, its ideals destroy humanity. Hence, if one does not conform, they…

For example, Katniss is awoken by the sound of other tributes running away from the sudden fire that set the arena ablaze. “The flames that bear down on me have an unnatural height, a uniformity that marks them as human-made, machine-made, Gamemaker-made. Things have been too quiet today. No deaths, perhaps no fights at all. The audience in the Capitol will be getting bored, claiming that these Games are verging on dullness. This is the one thing the Games must not…

In the contemporary debate of the morality of childbirth comes about two radical view of Natalism and Anti-natalism; obviously, the latter is a cursory rejection of the former. Natalism is belief that promotes reproduction as desirable for social reasons and to ensure national continuance. Anti-natalism, on the other hand, is the philosophical standpoint, which gives a negative value to birth. Its most popular claim is that coming to existence is a net harm because suffering is inevitable;…

The world may seem as though it only revolves around the luxuries millions of people wish to one day possess. Does nothing but to worry about the ridiculous standards made up of personal opinions. However, the truth is that the Earth does not exactly look as what it has been manufactured to seem like. Gordon Parks effectively introduces his essay named “Flavio’s Home” which originally pertains to his “Voices in the Mirror” published in 1990. This journal entry was written in memory of a young…

Statement of intent: I am going to argue that racism is an ongoing cycle that is preventing us from progressing and developing our world. Everyday we look around us at the many faces, yet all we see is multiple races. No matter if you are tall short or thin, you are judged on the pigment of your skin. We have become a nation built upon discrimination, where we are all victims to our own species. Our very own spirits and souls have been manipulated into believing that all of mankind is made…

Anubis (Anup) and Thoth (Djehuty) are both deities within the ancient Egyptian (Kemetic) pantheon. As such they have similarities but also many stark contrasts, beyond one being canine and the other being avian. I’ve chosen to explore the similarities and differences between the two from a historical, but also modern perspective. As an example of a similarity they are both involved with the Weighing of the Heart ceremony. In this ceremony the heart of the deceased is weighed against the feather…

Beauty in Gray I am lost because there is an injustice filling my body; I am aware that I cannot escape this feeling inside of me. What is inside of me is not the problem, however, the outside is. It’s not perfect, it never will be, no matter who I am, what I accomplish, what I become. Perfection is my everything, why should I be anything at all if not perfect? We come into a new age of people, a new age of tolerance, albeit I still feel secluded individually. Though these times are changing…
