Art as reflected in Three Theories”, Rajan Menon and John R. Oneal interpret the discourse behind imperialism and formulate three theories; the realist theory, the socialist theory of capitalism and the theory of lateral pressure. Although all theories hold some truth, the most applicable theory is that of lateral pressure. This theory can be used to explain why the British attempted to colonize certain oil-rich regions during the early 20th…

different theories that try and explain deviant behaviors. One of them is Cultural Transmission or also known as Differential Associations Theory. This is a theory that says all behavior is learned, this would include deviant behavior. This theory focuses on the age of the “learner”, the intensity of the contact with the deviant “teacher” and the ratio of good ot bad in the learners life. So for an example if a child is Born to a mother and father that would do drugs, and when the father…

Characteristics such as rapport building skills, empathy and unconditional positive regard can all be developed in the counseling process with clients; however rapport building and empathy are two that are most likely to change with each client and therefore should be genuinely new and relevant to each person as they come along. For example, each client that comes in will need a different set of feelings from their counselor, since every one’s story is different. The empathy can be a general…

This, at first, greatly hindered scientific advancement. The church – because of it’s own prideful blindness – spent too much time opposing the new theories, instead of engaging them and really considering them. They could not have considered that the new findings could bring them closer to an understanding of God and His creation. We must not fall into the same trap. We should not let our own dogma get in the way of scientific advancement. The truth will prevail. Let us not reject something we…

and orators persuade individuals. However, this is no simple task, when writing or preparing a speech the author must contemplate their message, and the audience in an effort to persuade even the most resistant spectator. So far, through reading The Theory Toolbox, we have explored authority which deals with how an author gains credulity to move from the status of a writer to an acclaimed authority. This section was particularly interesting due to the point the speaker made about interpretative…

Science: Known as both writer and poet, Shakespeare not only influenced the ways of Literature, but also the ways of Science. In his writings we can see the Science and logic behind his words, which is to be expected for he did live during the First Stage of the Scientific Revolution. There is a book called The Science of Shakespeare by Dan Falk, that explains how much he was connected to the world and its new discoveries. In it Falk discusses how Shakespeare “observed human nature just as…

There are many debates about the greatest book that ever existed, and this debate will continue to rage on but what is undeniable is that The Picture of Dorian Gray is definitely a well written book. The morality of this book however is a different issue altogether as this book discusses many different themes from youth…

“What can I do for you?” Dr. Moi poses after asking everyone at the table for their name, major, and why they are interested in a Scandinavian course. With an infectious energy and enthusiasm for the topics, she suggests we begin with Fear and Trembling, venture to Ibsen (who she wrote a book about, Henrik Ibsen and the Birth of Modernism), and end with a general discussion of Norway. Dr. Hedman asks, “do you know of a particular part of Fear and Trembling that gets students interested in the…

Public opinion is, in many ways, like science. A scientist will hear about or notice something and form an opinion. Good scientists will then continue to look into it to prove or disprove their original opinion, while less determined scientists will stick with what they originally found. Public opinion follows a very similar path. From the early years of school, people are taught that Christopher Columbus is a hero to the people of America. Many accept this notion as it is taught and move on;…
