    The Audacity of Sincerity I 'm being sincere here, I promise; but the thought of blazing a trail of sincerity in a world that is accustomed to lies is an audacious move that requires stern commitment. I have wondered time and time again that how did we get to the point where manipulation has become the norm; sincerity and irony have almost become synonymous. On the part of the pop artistes, I see a conundrum of insincerity that is necessitated by an audience that has developed “itchy ears” for anything authentic. The artistes have now become seeker-friendly; movies, music and other works of art are presented to align with the usual practice of manipulation that suits the taste of a postmodern generation. Irony and deception have been so entrenched…

It didn’t surprise me that women are at risk for being “judged weak or unprofessional” because this can be observed in everyday social situations both in and outside of the workplace.

    To simply read a piece of work accomplishes very little as does writing without sincerity. One has to believe in his work in order for it to be quality. J. R. R. Tolkien poured hours and years of his life into his work due to his passion and attention to detail. Tolkien constructed a number of languages for his work, something that very few authors can brag about. This demonstrates the dedication to his craft; instead of simply alluding to something he presented it in a real way as a couple of…

    The Lerner Excerpt does fit into the Wallace on Aesthetics of The New Sincerity.
