As one continues to interact with the world and its inhabitants, it is common for one to maintain a rudimentary understanding. To combat this and allow for individuals to think more deeply in their evaluation and perception, sociologists use their imagination to see the connections between our personal experience and the larger forces in history.

The Medieval Ages was a distinctive and fascinating period of time that showed the different parts of a feudal and manorial government but also displayed the diverse ways the people survived.

This is shown in the sense that man will work vigorously to achieve a goal that has no essential value but rather a superficial one. A man will work himself to exhaustion for something as frivolous and unnecessary as a new hat or firearm, knowing well enough that he already has one in perfectly good condition.…

I was first intrigued by Flanagan’s The Narrow Road to the Deep North, due to the focus of the story being on the Thai-Burma Railway (or the Death Railway as it was also called) during World War II (WWII). This setting interested me as I have always had a curiosity about history and the study of history. Similarly I was also interested in the Thai-Burma Railway as last year I had done a project on it in my history class. However as I started reading the novel, the setting became less important…

Marx’s criticism influenced our interactions with commodities in terms of how we determine the value between products in our capitalist economy.

If it was only Max, he wouldn’t have trapped…
