Deaf interpreters have a different use of the language which impacted the quality of the interpretation/translation of the material. There was still a use of hearing interpreters in media even though Deaf people have asked for Deaf translators. Reasons for this preference were related to the fluency and naturalness of the Deaf translator. Hearing interpreters did not often have the cultural awareness to convey the message equivalently and in a way that conveyed the meaning clearly. (Allsop &…
presentation of dreams and the characters tied to them is representative of the characterization of the protagonist in each novel. Although dreams are not the fundamental mode of characterization, they help the two authors fine tune the readers interpretation of each of the protagonists. Aboulela delves into the life of Najwa, a woman primarily focused on herself and her insecurities. Contrastingly, Jarrar follows Nidali, a character with an identity that is highly tied to those around her. The…
This week’s myth was on research showing that dreams have symbolic meaning. This psychological belief goes all the way back to Freud, who stated that dream interpretation was not universal, even though he treated it like it was. I was most surprised to learn that this belief actually stems from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. I knew it wasn’t a new belief, but I did not know that belief was over a hundred years old.

Judges create law by precedent and statutory interpretation. Under the Literal Rule judges have very little scope for judicial creativity as they are limited to giving words in the Act of Parliament their plain, ordinary, grammatical meaning from a standard English dictionary, this means judges are following the exact…
Intro: Freud in The interpretation of Dreams creates a procedure to analyze dreams. He first proposes the idea that all dreams fulfill a subconscious wish. This theory creates a fundamental issue: How can all dreams be wish fulfillment if in many cases they are destressing to the dreamer? To combat this issue Freud proposes the idea of manifest and latent content as the keys to understanding dreams. Manifest content is defined as the dream itself, it is the “plot”. Latent content is the…
Understanding how Shakespeare utilized his knowledge and interpretation of dreams, allows us to take a further glance at the title “Midsummer’s Night Dream”. Looking at the metaphorical use of “dream” it can be interpreted that this play is occurring in a dream world, and being in this “dream state” is essentially…
Neurologist Sigmund Freud once said, “Dreams are the royal road to the unconscious” (“The Interpretation”). Sigmund Freud firmly believes that dreams allow people to be what they cannot be, and to say what they can not say in our more repressed daily lives (Freud). Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a novel that involves dreams to symbolize characters and foreshadow situations.
