Employed with the art forms displayed throughout the film, “The Songcatcher” portrays subjects of culture and relationships. Each aspect: visual, music, and narrative, work together to develop a meaningful story about a woman who realizes her true motives and desires in life. By showing the character’s moral conflicts, the struggles of the mountain people through poverty and misfortune, and eventually the resolution of these conflicts, this story achieves the type of catharsis for the audience most other art forms often attempt to attain. The plot of “The Songcatcher” works in tandem and is accentuated by the either symbolic or literal artistic components of the pieces of music that were chosen, the set that highlights the contrasting cultures, and the script that makes parallels between the events that occur and the various art forms throughout the film. The first significant turning point of the story is at the very beginning when Lily is teaching a class and seeming extremely proficient in her knowledge of music; immediately showing the audience that she has prerequisites to be at a high position in a university. When she does not receive the promotion, this negative emotion she feels makes her impulsively decide to leave her life behind and to visit her sister. This is a turning point because it prepares the rest of the story--she begins her quest in the mountains, which is ultimately the beginning of the plot to rest of the movie. If this single event did not occur,…

The Ik On the eastern side of the African continent, near the borders of Kenya and South Sudan, in the mountains of northern Uganda you will find the Ik people. With a current population estimate of less than 10,000, they are a small African tribe (“The IK people of North-East Uganda”). Their villages consist of individual grass and stick homes with a small courtyard and fire pit, individually surrounded by a stockade with a doorway, leading into a communal stockade with gates to the outside.…

Lewis Thomas wrote about an interesting group in Uganda called the Iks. The Iks are a group of people who try to survive below the poverty line in designated areas that their government put them in. The Iks are separated from the rest of the world and they seemed to have lost the connections of love in family and friendship. The tribe members laugh at the pain of others, steal what they can, and never celebrate festivities. With no formal rules, the Iks live on their own accord. The Iks, stated…

“Our Yup 'ik ancestors apparently were complete with everything needed to keep the culture alive. They had experts who could measure and understand happenings in their daily lives.” There can be so many rules and things to do in Yup’ik culture. They would pass it down generation to generation. Back then, during winter time they would live in igloos. During summer time, they would live in mud house. There would be only couple houses and there was no electricity. They would make a fire out of seal…

It is interesting to read that after Yi Ik saw the painting Nine-Bend of Mount Wuyi he decided that it was a fictitious landscape that even demons and ghosts would be unable to locate. The fact that Yi Ik had never visited China, let alone that location, makes his statement sound silly. It reminds me of how nowadays people have deep-seeded beliefs without ever experiencing what they believe or do not believe. The topics of sexism and racism are very popular now, and yet I have met those…

Thus on closer inspection there seem to be certain (subconscious) rules for code-switching. The first of these is that switching between a subject pronoun and a finite verb leads to impossible sentences (Nortier, Code-switching Is Much More than Careless Word Count: 937 Mixing: Multilinguals Know the Rules!). Sentences A and B are therefore examples of incorrect code-switching. A) Ik kocht the last copy (I bought the last copy) B) I bought het laatste exemplaar ( I bought the last copy) C) Ik…
