If we consider theology as the study of God, or the study of the divine, or the study of the nature of God, then the definition that Mueller puts forth for theology and his justification for taking part in its study make a lot of sense. He breaks down the word into its two Greek roots: theos for “god” and logos for “word” or “understanding” (Mueller 2011, p. 28), and that leaves one with a wide range of possible interpretations. Given that Mueller has an “S.J.” after his name, of course, we must conclude that he will take on ...

Chaucer presents chivalry as an expression of perfection in character, inspired by the desire to please divine authority. According to Hall, a Knight’s duty in the medieval time was to the King, with the King seen as God’s intermediary (Hall, 16). The author presents chivalry in a militant fashion, probably as a reaction to the prevailing circumstance of chaos that needed a militant hand to defeat the heathens. Chaucer, therefore, presents the Knights as noble images of perfection with chivalry as a mainstay in their duty to man and God, even though it does not bear success ...

In his essay entitled “The Decay of Laying”, author Oscar Wilde wrote that “life imitates art far more than art imitates life” (Wilde, 1891). One of the biggest questions that Wilde’s quote created was whether he was right, and life truly does imitate art. Regardless of whether he is accurate or not, art, including television, is often studied to provide understanding of how life was perceived at the point in time when the art was produced. This essay will analyze five episodes of a family situational comedy (sitcom) from the 1950s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s to provide ...

Robert Goren Law and Oder Criminal Intent and Carl Rogers Personality Theory

Carl Roger’s is a renowned psychologist that propagated the Personality Theory which explains the behaviors and characteristics of an individual. The argument shows that the formation of a person’ self-concept results from self-actualization behavior. He said that the self-actualizing characteristics determine a person’s personality. The self-actualization tendencies are as a consequence of the events and the environment in which a person grows up in, as well as the person’s genetic make-up. The environment provides the stimulus that prompts responses from the person. A repeat of the stimuli prompts the development of a self-concept. For any individual ...

John Updike’s “A&P” is an excellent example of realistic prose, because it focuses on a seemingly unimportant episode which takes place in the life of an ordinary young man, which however represents a transformative event. The narrator of the story, nineteen-years-old Sammy, uses the type of language that one would expect from a boy, being both funny and naïve. He gives nicknames to the customers and is ironical towards his co-worker. At the same time, he is fascinated by the young girls in bath suits, and particularly, “Queenie”, whom he describes with admiring words, which betray his ...

Adler’s Three Safeguarding Tendencies

A major contributor to our understanding of psychology, Alfred Adler advanced the concept of three safeguarding behaviors. In addition, he set forth the idea that six safeguarding techniques are used by people to protect themselves from any threats to the three safeguarding behaviors, i.e. protecting one’s self from physical harm, protecting one’s reputation with others, and any blow to our self-esteem (Miller, 2016). The six safeguarding techniques include distance seeking, aggression, symptoms, anxiety, exclusion tendency, and excuses (Miller, 2016).

I am like my brother in some ways and different in other ways. It is a natural phenomenon. No two persons can be alike albeit twins. This is the very beauty of nature that no two individuals share the exactly same characteristics. The very evidence of it is that finger prints of each and every person on the earth are different. However, it does not nullify the presence of resemblance between two or more individuals. Resemblance is basically based on genetics and sociological environment of persons which create their behaviour. Thus, it can be safely said that besides that ...

Intro

Emily Dickinson is an American poet, who is probably the most recognizable name in American poetry. Not much is known of her motivation regarding her poems as only 12 of the 1800 she had written were published during her life time and she left little in the way of explaining her thoughts regarding what she had written. What is known is that she did not think the majority of her poems were worth public consumption and had told her sister Lavinia (Vinnie) to dispose of them after her death. This was probably due to her poems being heavily altered ...

RHETORICAL ANALYSIS OF ESSAY ON “Students and Money: In Their Own Words”

The first Rhetorical device I see in the Essay on "Students and Money: In Their Own Words."

Fears and Expectations in The King’s Speech

Speech impediments are often the highlight of ridicule which leaves traumatic and ongoing scars in the individual. The King’s Speech highlights these scars by portraying in detail King George VI’s battle with his speech impediment. His stammering has caused him to lose confidence in himself, most especially with all the expectations that people latch onto him as part of the royal family. These viewpoints are often attributed as a lack of skill in the individual rather than being seen and tackled in a more serious regard. King George VI, or Bertie to his close relations, stammers more ...

Basic Conflict and its Context

The main conflict in Sophocles’ Antigone revolves around the burial of a corpse. Antigone wants her deceased brother Polyneices to have a proper burial, and is decided to have this happen in spite of the obstacles that she may find in her way. On the other hand, King Creon prohibits this because he believes that Polyneices is a traitor, saying that he died “laying waste the land for which he fought” (Sophocles). This obviously clashes with Antigone’s set desire, as the titular character is intent on burying him, claiming that this is right, regardless of what Creon’s ...
