In days of old, it was a common site to see
individuals peddling serums or devices that were
purported to cure all your afflictions. Most of
these claims were, of course, fraudulent but held
a fascinating and alluring idea. Despite todays
medical milieu, and the many advances made in
medical technology since those days of covered
wagons and street side pharmacies, humans are
still searching for some way to cure the
afflictions of the human condition. What if
someone made the claim, much like tho...

unlimited time and all the relevant information to
carry out the decision analysis. But we know from
our everyday experience that when we are in a
familiar situation, we take many decision almost

some of them tick discernibly better than others

Allusions To Nature Father And Child Death

In Gwen Harwood's poetry, the changes in an
individuals perspective and attitudes towards
situations, surroundings and, therefore
transformations in themselves, are brought on by
external influences, usually in the form of a
person or an event. These changes are either
results of a dramatic realisation, as seen with
shattering of a childs hopes in The Glass Jar, or
a melancholy and gradual process, where a series
of not so obvious discoveries produces similar
reformation. An example of the later...

Creon As The Tragic Hero In An
612 words
Sophocles' Antigone is, without a doubt, one of
the greatest tragedies ever written. There are
many questions that somebody could ask about this
work, but this one intrigues me the most: Who is
the tragic hero? Could it be Antigone? Or could it
be Creon? Antigone might be the name of the
tragedy, but I believe that Creon is the winning
candidate. His role in the plot of this tragedy,
his sensible tragic fault, and his dynamic
character are the obvious reasons why I chose him
as the tragic hero. ...

Sociology Over the last four decades Jurgen
Habermas has revealed an innovative and
much-discussed theory of contemporary capitalist
society. He built his theory on Max Weber's thesis
that the dynamic growth of capitalism destroyed
individual freedom and the meaningfulness of
social life. Habermas considered contemporary
social conflict as resistance to this dynamic by a
variety of social groups. In his theory of
'communicative action' he tried to show the

The general period that is labeled Renaissance
continued without any sharp stylistic break into
the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This
period of art is called Baroque, although no one
Baroque style or set of stylistic principles
actually has been defined. Scholars gradually came
to see that the Baroque styles were quite
different from those of the Renaissance. The
Baroque looks dynamic while Renaissance styles are
relatively static. Like the art it produced, the

Hawthorne uses several dynamic characters to
develop the plot of the novel. A dynamic character
