has the ability to end their life. In Odysseus’ case he was not entering a medical procedure, but was instead willing to listen to the alluring song of the Sirens. This song had the capability to kill him at the lethal arms of the Sirens if the seduction of the song got him to come after them. Just as Odysseus’ crew had respected and validly recognized his wishes stated in lines 194-198 when he was still sane, the researchers operated in a similar fashion listening to J.S.’s requests while he…
Sikolohiyang Pilipino & Filipino Collectivism The researchers have discovered that with the help of Sikolohiyang Pilipino, it has enabled a greater understanding of what the Filipino value of collectivism meant to the Filipino society. Understanding it now from a Filipino perspective, Sikolohiyang Pilipino is anchored on Filipino thought and experience (Enriquez, 1975). This type of psychology began from a focused type of indigenization meaning concepts, methods, theories, and measures were…
western communities. Over time the majority of the inhabitants of these cities desired to establish a set of rules or laws to live by. Mobility and innovation made crime more difficult to detect. Mobility encouraged crimes involving trust, such as seduction, fraud and violent crimes. Enabled by an incentive to start anew elsewhere many bolted after their crimes. The ease of moving brought an explosion of swindles in this mobile friendly society. As a result, the drive to professionalize police…
Katherine Terrell’s article “Competing Gender Ideologies and the Limitations of Language in Le Roman de Silence” Terrell explores exactly “why the text lends itself to such widely divergent readings” as to how the text is feminist or misogynistic (36). On my hand Terrell finds “Silence’s success in traditionally male roles has led some readers to see this as a ‘proto-feminist’ text” but also notes the opinion that: On the other hand, the narrator’s persistent antifeminism, the poem’s…
able to distinguish the difference between good and evil and make the proper decision. However, they will sometimes intentionally make the wrong choice and choose evil not because they don’t do not know better, but because they are tempted by the seductions of deviance. Some people believe that because Adam and Eve gave into temptation, the rest of mankind inherited the weakness fro temptation and must struggle with Satan to make the virtuous choices. In another instance, being demonic possessed…
Throughout Titus Andronicus we find two leading female characters, Tamora Queen of the Goths turned Empress of Rome and Lavinia the victim of a rape that is arguably symbolic of the current chaos the country is in. Through the use of a feminist along with a slight historical analysis, I will explore the importance of these character in relation to the story and to the lead character, Titus. In Douglas E. Greens “Interpreting ‘Her Martyr’d Signs’: Gender And Tragedy in Titus Andronicus.”…
Kehlani Parrish’s new album, SweetSexySavage, is her way of telling the story of her past while staying true to who she is today. Kehlani has a lot to tell her listeners on this album, and she does so in a blunt, fearless, and lighthearted way. By no means did Kehlani just walk into stardom. She had to overcome depression, homelessness, and many other challenges along the way. But who she is now is a beautiful, strong women with a breathtakingly honest album. One of the most defining moments…
each may morning" This, Marlowe implies, is the perfect environment of love. It is an environment where love will neither change nor end, but remain pristine and perfect. The poem is the language of love, the moment leading to seduction, but it is not the language of realism. I belive that when Marlowe was writing the poem he new that the what is was writing was improbable fantasy but his is not the object of the poem to be real, just to seduce his "love". So he…
In Bewiched, Manago, a symbol of love and passion, serves as a thematic clue to track the male protagonist-Toyo-o’s psychological development of masculinity through a series of seductions and confrontations. While she, a “tenacious” manipulative temptress, is also a true foil to what society demands of women (646). Ueda Akinari uses Manago to suggest a gender based social order in the Japanese society which expects men to develop masculinity- courage, independence, determination to gain…
Despite Hugh Hefner’s belief and early support of equality for women, Playboy has been constantly denounced as exploitive of women and their bodies. Are the centerfolds exploitive? Do they lead to casual misogyny? A 1993 study by researchers at The University of Western Ontario examined centerfold models in four hundred thirty issues of Playboy from 1953 to 1990. How explicit are the centerfolds? Playmates were only photographed with genitalia partially visible in six percent of all centerfold…
