It can be just a matter of perspective whether we hold the view that there are somewhat inevitable connection among events or there only exists sheer chance. For how can we judge the existence of relationship, a invisible thing? In that case, it is more fruitful to think about what is the healthy way to cope with seeming contingency than to be engrossed in the discussion about something is a chance product or not. It is because paranoia no less distresses its possessor than a world with no…

The speaker expresses faith in the poet’s ability to reconstruct a world free of the fall, an edenic, mythic world that flourished “before the serpent perverted language when persuading Eve and before the destruction of Bable scattered language into a multiplicity of tongues, mutually foreign” (Edwards 137).

This is opposed to plants which have a corresponding weight of roots below them. The mirrored root system that plants have, particularly for vegetables like carrots, allows them to define themselves beyond what meets the eye. Wolfe wrote his book to give insight into a world below ground, but it also illuminates a…

In what follows, I will analyze Hitchcock's film Rear Window. It is my thesis that the film clearly shows that scopophilia leads to living a different kind of life. When being intrigued by someone else’s life, it is pretty easy to want to know answers. To defend this thesis, the essay will show specific scenes from the film to demonstrate how easy it is to be interested in someone else’s life. In the beginning, we figure out Jeff had broken his leg and is casted all the way up to his waist, and…

This is known as the linguistic turn, sparked in the late 1960s by such postmodern theorists as Jacques Lacan, Jacques Derrida, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Roland Barthes, and Michel Foucault, and poses interesting normative and methodological challenges for public administration and policy studies.
