The Imaginary

Beekle was born on an island where imaginary friends are born. This is where they wait to be imagined by a real child. Every night the sit under the stars hoping to be picked and given a name. Beekle waited a long time and he began to get very discouraged. He did something no imaginary friend had done before. He sailed through the sea and reached the real world where he would find his home. Beekle was surprised because the real world was not like the imaginary. Beekle searched but never found…

Concept challenger “Speck Of A Wishing Powder” My job is the concept challenger, I believe the concept of Rhino breaking the swing, should be challenged, I believe this because, Rhino the “Imaginary friend” had apparently broke the swing, the quote that I had used for this challenge was : “It’s not my fault because Rhino was the one who broke the swing. And I told them so, but Mother and Father don’t believe me. How could I, little Michael, smaller even than all of my friends, break a tire…

In order to address this issue, I will use Emma Perez’s concept of decolonial imaginary-this concept aims to deconstruct the dominant culture’s ideology that has perpetuated oppression throughout history by re-gendering history to herstory.

their identity. Bonfil Bantalla gives the example of two Mexico’s. One of the Mexico’s is the real Mexico and the other is imaginary Mexico. The only reason why it is hard to define what a Mexican is, is because of the caste system and the separation and implication of superiority due to skin tone. A Mexican in the 21st century could potentially experience real Mexico or imaginary Mexico differently based on their skin tone and geography. Some Mexicans might have access to whiteness due to…

Imaginary real is more related to the human playing the game and there is violence and blood-bath…

is morally right, in accordance to our moral sense, that precedes our hedonistic self-interest; we are compelled to help the sufferer even when we know that it would be in our self-interest to act otherwise.29 Instead of the convoluted process of imaginary substitution, Hutcheson instead argues that the sympathy is sensible due to its immediacy and passivity, and not reducible to merely the external senses with the addition of substitution. The content between egoistic thought and sympathy is…

pretense. They do this by taking advantage of heteronormativity maintained by the heterosexual imaginary. Ward presents examples of this and uses terms like supplementarity, ideology, imaginary, heterogenders, and heteronormativity to explain…

an ‘IMAGINARY NUMBER’?? until my teacher explained me the concept of Imaginary numbers and the pattern within it- The creation of imaginary numbers has been dated back to the time of Christ when Greek mathematician Heron of Alexandria first perceived the imaginary number ‘i’ for 1600 years mathematicians tried to understand the concept of imaginary numbers and finally in the 16th century Rafael Bombelli (“Who invented imaginary numbers”) described the rules for the use of complex or ‘imaginary’…
