The Masses

Art work neatly lines the being colored walls of a standard sized room in the University of Arizona’s Museum of Art. Hanging next to an oil painting of a vibrant rainbow gracing the sky of what could easily be downtown Tucson, is a piece of art work the elegantly displays the stark black wing of a plane gliding over a town or city that’s been brought to life with small dots of color. That piece of artwork is American Artist Yvonne Jacquette’s “Night Wing View 1”, a 15-color screenprint published…

Crito: My Argument With Socrates I would first like to start my argument with capitulation; for I do not believe that Socrates, at the heart of his argument, was wrong. Although my knowledge of that heart may be false, thus so may my beliefs, I must still put in the effort and play my role as devil’s advocates by trying to convince a long dead man to do something I believe would have been wrong. My first argument with Socrates is whether he ever truly intended to be swayed, or if his mind had…

funds to local governments not only for protection against terrorism but also in recovery from such acts. Also, there are the Metropolitan Medical Response System (MMRS) and the Citizen Corps Program (CCP) which are designed for post-event response (Masse, O’Neil, and Rollins, 2007). Following this, resource allocation is not limited to the aggregate function of the risk level with all variables considered. Instead, the variables themselves—in this case, the consequence—as well as additional…

If it is our agenda, we can remove it. We can give masses of humans their freedom. We can give masses of humans their life. We can give masses of humans their chance of living. People have suffered enough. The price people have paid is gigantic. The bloody footprints, which we set, are too many. The bloody shirts are not cleaned. Is this really the…

In reading Horkhiemer and Adorno’s “The Culture Industry” many points are highlighted on how culture is perceived and what has been done through advertising and other forms of mass media to instill immediate gratification in the masses. There are three points that can be made from this article in relation to their argument: the notion of extreme monetary wealth being the most important sign of success (in music culture); problems being so readily and easily solved on a daily basis and in a…

talk about some of the scientific experiments that were going on during Mary Shelley’s lifetime, and some that are happening today. I plan to compare the scientific advancements back then to the advancements of today. I plan to talk about what the masses thought about these advancements and experiments, if they even knew about them at all. I am going to explain why I think that science and medicine were more terrifying then than it is now. One of my sources is “The Lady and Her Monsters:…

(the language that has shared meaning among the masses), thus no definitive meaning can be derived and should not be used. Having decided on the nature of Wittgenstein’s claim, what are the grounds (reasons) for it that Wittgenstein provides?…

reinforced interest in astronomical omens such as supernovas, lunar and social eclipse, and meteors.
