    morality. In this paper, I argue that Nietzsche does not think Marx an example of the slave revolt in morality as Nietzsche’s view of the slave class is different to Marx’s view of the proletarians as well as their differing suggestions in terms of imaginary revenge and physical revolution. To begin with, Nietzsche explains in the first essay that master morality is one associated with the noble who are “the mighty, the high-placed and the high-minded” (Nietzsche, 11). In contrast, the slave…

    they can be, or they can create an imaginary world to get lost in in an attempt to forget reality. Some do this by turning to substance abuse, and some have such vivid imaginations that their mind can take them places they would have never imagined possible. If only we as humans could accept whom we are regardless of the mistakes we have made or the faults we may have, then we could have the power to change ourselves for the better, rather than creating an imaginary perception of oneself to get…

    in literature is sometimes hard to identify. The authors of these types of works make imagination seem so realistic that the audience begins to believe the character's imagination.

The bird in this poem may seem real but there are many signs that it is not. In the beginning of the poem, Poe does not…

In Never Let Me Go, one’s art “reveal[s] [their] soul” (Ishiguro 175); specifically, Tommy’s drawings of imaginary animals prove that he is creative, thus he is human-like, and cannot be viewed simply as a clone without a soul. I will first discuss how both Kathy’s and Ruth’s reactions when first seeing Tommy’s animals, even though different, show how original the…

The use of this historical example makes the audience understand the reason behind why they are always “busy” and why their children tend to have imaginary friends. We must prevent technology from making us too “busy” and we must communicate directly with people in order to give them our…
