The play, Dealers of White Women, is an entertaining and funny melodrama that is representative of an older era, where thoughts were much different than modern times. While the outdated ideas that this play embodies may come across as insulting, the comedic values are still present and can be enjoyed by many. As many melodramas, the main focus of this play exists within the act of the play, act IV. The first french scene begins when the act starts and ends as Charlie walks into the room. This scene is labeled as “Doctor’s Hideout.” This scene involves the characters Carita and Doctor as they give background information to audience through dialogue. The objectives of each character is subtle in this french scene. In this scene, Doctor’s objective is to hide and escape from the police; meanwhile, Carita’s objective is to investigate what is happening around her as she asks questions such as, “where are we...what is that sound...what are you doing...where is Helda” (Dealers, 82).

The point of reciprocal forcing is through Carita’s confusion of the circumstances, and Doctor’s overconfidence in his plans. The intensification of this…

Even the slightest expressions from human could have a meaning, and those expressions are called micro expressions. The term micro expressions is labeled as a “very brief facial expressions, lasting only a fraction of a second” (Micro Expressions). In other words, micro expressions only exist in a blink of an eye that human couldn’t capture. Furthermore, human ways of interaction are deeply connected to emotions and function through a system of “social signals: facial expressions” (Jack,…

Martha Graham’s “Lamentation,” like many of her other works, is a direct expression of emotion; an expression of emotion through body movements.

This technique was in efforts to develop and maintain flexibility in the spine and hips, specifically in a seated position. “Lamentation” was created in response to the…

As the result their mind goes darken, their heart become impurity and they will do something dishonor either in…

A lot people regard the libertarian party an alternative to the republican party where one is fiscally conservative while at the same following democratic beliefs such as legalizing gay marriage, legalizing drugs etc. With regards to the ongoing election where a large majority of voters are stuck to choose between the lesser of the two evils the libertarian part saw a huge increase in their party membership. As of today the libertarian party…

He takes the two questions; did Jesus die on the cross? And did he appear to people three days later? Through the accounts of the Bible, we can answer yes to both of those questions—which Habermas says, makes your case (Strobel 64). Paul was an apostle of Jesus, and in his letter to Corinth, he says that he personally saw the resurrected Jesus two separate times. 1 Corinthians 9:1, “Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord?” (New King James Version). And in 1 Corinthians 15:8, “Last…
