Myths Of World View
1,890 wordsMYTHS OF THE POLITICAL-ECONOMIC WORLD VIEW A MYTH IS a traditional story that offers an explanation of some fact or phenomenon. Myths are neither wholly true nor wholly untrue. They may have been more true in the past than now, but people act as if they are still true, even when they no longer really believe in them. Some modem usages of the word have connotations that suggest that myths are irrelevant or wrong, but this is not necessarily so. Myths are of considerable importance to people, and ...

Heaven And Hell Songs Of Experience
1,259 wordsIn this essay I will be discussing, firstly, and in the context of my vague understanding of late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century society in Britain, the criticism of dominant middle-class thought that William Blake presents in Songs of Experience. I understand that perhaps less than thirty copies of this were ever printed in Blakes lifetime, so any challenge to contemporary conventional thinking was largely unheard, but this does not invalidate exploring the social conditions and attit...

Feelings Of Love False Sense
2,129 words... what will be, we sense, a much better and fuller life in the court. The Language of Love The most obvious concern of As You Like It is love, and particularly the attitudes and the language appropriate to young romantic love. This, I take it, is obvious enough from the relationships between Orlando and Rosalind, Silvius and Phoebe, Touchstone and Audrey, and (very briefly) Celia and Oliver. The action of the play moves back and forth among these couples, inviting us to compare the different s...

Gender Roles In And Yellow Wall
1,305 wordsThe Awakening and The Yellow Wallpaper must first and foremost be understood in their historical framework. By the turn of the century, journals, art galleries, and works of fiction were swamped with notions about how to be a proper woman in middle class society. With industrialization, urbanization, declining birth rates, amplified divorce rates, the shift away from the home and the rise in the number of single men and women in the professional class, Americans dreaded that their families would...

Fall In Love Men And Women
1,978 wordsThis topic is also well discussed in many of the standard textbooks, but a bit unevenly and a bit oddly. Thus Haralambos and Holborn (1990), or Barnard and Burgess (1996) have good sections specifically on gender and educational achievement. However, rather strangely, the section on education is treated almost entirely as a sort of empirical matter and not linked very well to the other admirable sections on gender generally, or gender in the family or work sections. This is especially odd in the...

Kant And Kierkegaard Moral Imperatives Freedom
794 wordsKant and Kierkegaard For both Kierkegaard and Kant the moral and spiritual center is how I, as a particular, express myself through convention. For both, the structure of pre-established humanity is strikingly similar: freedom, integrity, and trust in (or respect for) an absolute are virtues that define a fully human self, at home in a conventional matrix. To become truly moral, Kant requires that our motives reflect Reasons categorical imperatives. Kierkegaard finds the transcendental locus of ...
