Many things in life require a license: driving a car, owning a TV, and previously ownership of a dog. Licenses exist to help regulate such aspects of our society and culture, to keep things civilized and maintain some sort of order, ensuring our safety. With this in mind, I question why there are people free to conceive and attempt to raise a child without any sort of training or license. A child’s development and well-being are wholly dependent on their...

“Women”, is a word associated with a nurturing persona; in modern times, a symbol of perseverance and strength. However, the opinion on women has been shaped throughout the years with both negative and positive connotations. Although the perspectives changed, many still oppress women, finding them inferior to men. The short stories, “The Yellow Wall Paper”, written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and “The Story of an Hour”, written by Kate Chopin, both written in the 1800s, similarly use the depiction of...

We live in a world where we are constantly surrounded by signs that signify different objects and ideas, influence our thoughts, and help shape our view of the world (Gaines, 2011, 15-16). The media plays a huge role in communicating how meaning is created and conveyed through words, images, and signs (Berger, 2019). Berger (2019, 12), defines texts as a collection of signs, which means that a semiotic analysis can be applied to all texts in order to interpret the...

In light of these events, Lincoln delivered his speech, more...

I am awakened by the ear-piercing sound of my 6:30 alarm—right next to my head. Obviously, because I sleep right next to my phone, like a lot of other teenagers today.

Personally, I spend 6 hours and 10 minutes on my phone, and I pick up my phone 209 times...

When some patients reach the point of making this decision, they want to enjoy the rest of their life without a machine assisting them or worrying about any type of treatment.

Nurture is the behaviour which is learnt through environment and socialisation, whereas nature refers to the idea that behaviour is biological or innate. Psychologists believe that our behaviour is due to nature, whereas sociologists believe that it is down to nurture. One reason nurture is more significant than nature is primary socialisation. Primary socialisation occurs when a child learns the attitudes, values, and actions appropriate to the members of a particular culture. When we are born we don’t know the...

Cinematography contains many different intentions, much of them going far beyond the direct action of photographing the action. Many of the methods used are all about adding visual subtext and visual metaphor to a scene. The ways in which the cinematographer uses movement, composition, color, and light can be powerful tools to enhance the dramatic elements of the story. Martin Scorsese’s 'Taxi Driver' (1976) is an example of skillful and deliberate use of cinematography to engage the audience and provide...

Although there is debate on whether ‘The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn’ is able to properly critique all parts of Twain’s society, it successfully analyzes the immoral practices of his society through his descriptions of mob mentality. The most blatant way Twain critiques mob mentality is through the use of the character of Colonel Sherburn and the town’s attempt to lynch him. As Huck is traveling around with the King and the Duke, they stop in a small town to put...

In ‘The Scarlet Letter’ he is the living embodiment of the Black Man, who is, in the Puritan faith, a representation of the devil. He shares similar physical features to the Black Man and even shares similar desires. In ‘The Scarlet Letter’, the Black Man is said to wander the forest, looking to capture souls. This might be the most apparent similarity that Chillingworth...

Before starting to discuss the problems faced by the LGBTQ community, it is essential to first understand its background. If we look at the chain, we find the term “homosexual” as the pioneer, but it was soon replaced with the word “gay” in the 1950s because “homosexual “ was believed to have negative connotations. By the 1960s, with the promotion by Lars Ullerstam, this community was referred to as a sexual minority. Then, as time progressed and people became more...

The Union’s strategy for defeating the South was known as the Anaconda Plan. The theory behind the Anaconda Plan was to block supplies from being shipped to the South and drain the fire from the Confederate’s blood. By 1862, the South was incredibly dependent on a supply...

In 1606, King James I ruled over England, and it is often thought that 'Macbeth' wrote the play with the King in mind in an attempt to win his approval. During this time, English society greatly believed in the Elizabethan world order and the divine right of kings. There was also a great interest in the supernatural, and women...

Speaking about what is the purpose of learning, I would like to focus on the approach of Gert Biesta. In the European Journal of Education, Research, Development and Policy, Gert Biesta tries to argue the purpose of education in the context of a discussion of the problematic impact of the language of learning. He suggests that the term ‘learning’ does not say much about what the learning is ‘about’ and ‘for’. To him, the purpose of education should not just...
