... e was in a much better placed to attain this
position. The intellectual pursuits of the artists
were not solely limited to the study of Latin and
geometry. The study of antiquities also became

Some Renaissance artists no doubt saw the pursuit

Divine Command Sacred Texts
857 words
In his dialogue Euthyphro, Plato poses the
question of whether the gods love what is holy
because it is holy or whether it is holy because
the gods love it. The corresponding question in
terms of ethics is whether God loves the good
because it is good or whether it is good because
God loves it. Divine command theorists give a
clear and unequivocal answer to this question in
the area of ethics: they maintain whatever is good
is good only because God wills it to be good. This
has serious implicati...

Sula Toni Morrison Poetic Language
1,984 words
According to Aldous Huxley, the life of any epoch
can only be synthesised by poets: Encyclopaedias
and guides to knowledge cannot do it, for the good
reason that they affect only the intellectual
surface of a mans life. The lower layers, the core
of his being, they leave untouched. 1 I like this,
particularly the idea of the intellectual surface
- a mere surface, with much beyond it - and
combined with Jacobson's aforementioned theory, I
take this as my starting point: the idea that
poetic langu...

On June 24, 1947, pilot Kenneth Arnold was flying
over the Cascades when he reported seeing "nine
shiny objects in a chain-like formation speeding
by at some 1600 miles per hour" (Ellwood 393).
Arnold compared what he saw to a saucer skipping
across water. This characterization led the media

report was quickly followed by many other
sightings reported from various places around the

originated in certain unique events which occurred
in Palestine under the Roman emperors Augustus and
Tiberius (Robertson 63). Christianity is a

differences between two texts. The first text is a
poem by George Gordon, know as Lord Byron, called
The Dream and the second text is an extract from
Martin Luther Kings speech entitled I have a

Analysis Of The Death Author
738 words
In his essay The Death of the Author, Roland
Barthes attacks the tradition of Classic criticism
(which he describes as being tyrannically centred
on the author), presenting the argument that there
is no such thing as the Author of a text, but
merely a script whose ideas are not entirely
original; the author is subject to several
influences when writing, and as Barthes says we
can never know the true influence because writing
destructs every point of origin. It is not the
author (whose voice vani...

Receive A Proper Burial Book Of The Dead

Ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman practices of
preparing the dead for the next cradle of humanity
are very intriguing. These two cultures differ in
a multitude of ways yet similarities can be noted
in the domain of funerary services. In the realm
of Egyptian afterlife, The Book of the Dead can
provide one with vital information concerning
ritual entombment practices and myths of the
afterlife. The additional handouts I received from

African Americans Human Beings

Homosexuality is being hotly debated today in
church and society. When the case is made for the
legitimacy of same-sex love, critics rush in with
three main defenses. (1) It is contrary to nature.
(2) It is condemned in Scripture. (3) Its
acceptance would ruin society. The most
interesting thing about these three arguments is
that they have been used in the past to defend
what is now universally regarded as evil. In
American history, slavery, segregation, and the
denial of the vote to women all ...

God Is Omnipotent Christianity Is A Religion

Christianity is a religion in which events are
claimed to have occured but which can never be
proved. Those who practice it live by different
morals than are preached by the most holy texts.
It is an institution in which the most holy
scripture is contradictory, and wherein the
supreme being, by the very definition, cannot
exist. Christianity is, therefore, a fundamentally
flawed religion. According to the Bible, events
have occured which are even more miraculous than
the resurrection of Jesus C...

Natural Born Killers Watching Violence

Violence is a constant on our screens whether it
be an anvil falling on a cartoon character, a war
zone on the news, a fight in an action movie or a
pub brawl in a soap opera. But does this screen
violence produce behavioural effects in the
viewers? This is one of the most frequent and
heatedly debated arguments in mass media. Is it
the case that audiences are effected by what they
see and that the producers of media texts are
instigating or increasing violent behaviour, or do
audiences have the...
