Susan Bordo works at the University of Kentucky as
the Otis A. Singletary Chair of Humanities. She
also is a philosopher who deals with many
traditional aspects of philosophy such as Rene
Descartes and Sigmund Freud. However, what sets
Bordo apart from most other philosophers is her
training of the study of popular culture and
representations of the body. She is a philosopher,
that is, who writes not only about Plato but also
about Madonna and O. J. (Bordo 138). Much of
Bordo's work as a teacher...

Susan B Anthony Women The Right To Vote
1,820 words
The womens suffrage movement began in Seneca
Falls, New York during a convention on the rights
of women. Seneca Falls was a progressive town but
even here, Elizabeth Cady Stanton's call for
suffrage was controversial. Voting and politics
were seen as completely male domains and it was
shocking to think of women involved in either. The
primary argument of suffragists was that they were
being denied one of the most basic rights of
Democracy. They were expected to live under laws
which they could n...

One Of The Most Important Taking Pictures
1,702 words
The world of photography, especially in
journalism, is a complex weave of structure,
sight, composition, light, and texture. So there
is no wonder that some photographers must face a
very important decision - staging versus fate.
While both illustrate the skills involved in
taking pictures, these "directors" must often
choose their style (fate / staged ) for both
shots, no matter how hard one tries, will still be
able to be broken down. Meaning, many viewers will
deconstruct the photograph. If t...

Criminal Justice System Due Process
1,070 words
Crime control and due process are two different
ideal types of criminal justice. One could say
they are extremes on a continuum. The role of
crime control is to get the criminal off the
street and to protect the innocent. The due
process model of criminal justice is like an
obstacle course, you have to keep going through
legal obstacles to ensure in the end you convict
the right person. In Canada the police lean toward
crime control and the courts lean toward due
process. This causes tension bet...

traditional male chauvinistic society. Over the
years it became a long, grueling, and frustrating
task, fighting for their rights, especially for
those who led the battles; like one woman, who
