Clearly, Fielding goes to great lengths to convince Aziz that India will never become a united nation. Fielding and Forster denounce colonisation yet they simultaneously gain privilege from it, and this explains the contradiction in their attitudes towards colonisation. The scene of the boats promises a fresh start, a form of rebirth, for Aziz and Fielding. It coincides with the festival of Shri Krishna in which the whole world is delivered from their pains and sorrow. The boats collide and…

Colonialism and the media are intrinsically intertwined, helping create what we know as Canada, and the rest of the world today. When I first think of the media, I immediately think of television and movies, and how these forms of communication shape my view of the world. But, the media goes far beyond these forms and it can be used in many ways beyond promoting a product during the commercial break. The articles I will be discussing prove that the media was, and still is, perpetuating a…

Based on the massing and context, we decided to utilize this unique site condition, in order to continue the double face strategy. In this way, we use this kind of double faces strategy to separate the façade of our building to two parts.

In other words, it is a prescribed collective identity or stereotypical and underappreciated view for a wide range of cultures and nationalities that span across the region of the Middle East to East Asia. When these nationalities are lumped together as one (Arabs),…

today in the West stem from the West’s belittling perceptions and depictions of “the East.” Many scholars’ writings, such as George Hegel, wrote problematic cultural representations of Islamic history based upon fictional, Western images of the “Orient.” Despite Fernand Braudel’s attempts in writing an improved history on Islamic civilization, he still suffers from a significant Hegelian slant that includes Orientalism and Idealism. In contrast, Richard Eaton proposes a new method and vision of…

According to Arthur Kleinman, there is no better doctor-patient relationship than one where both parties are able to answer a set of eight seemingly obvious and simple questions. The key to this dynamic is the ability to answer, not the similarity between answers. The importance of this distinction could have made all the difference in the conflict in Lia Lee’s case. The introduction of eight “golden” rules to consider in health care at the end of Lia Lee’s case allow all parties to self-reflect…
