Patient A, who has a diagnosis of dementia, will most likely be on the receiving end of the least amount of discrimination from those around her. It’s true that she will fall foul of the prejudice (though lack of empathy might be a better phrase than prejudice) which exists against the elderly, and she may also feel some pushback for her second marriage, particularly if it was due to some error on her own part, but otherwise, her life and previous career would bring her respect. Her diagnosis does not surprise me, because at eighty-eight, patient A is ...

Judith Butler wrote the article “The Values of Difficulty” as a response to the article “Language Crimes: A Lesson in How Not to Write, Courtesy of the Professoriate” written by Denis Dutton.

She believes that there is a connection between the language and the meaning and that a term could be misunderstood if simple language would be used.

Themes in Plato’s ‘Republic’

One of the most important themes that emerge in Plato’s work, ‘Republic’ specialization; in fact, he considers specialization as a principle of justice (Pappas 12).

The 18th century novels Pamela and Evelina, by Samuel Richardson and Frances Burney, respectively, paint men (particularly upper-class men) in a generally unflattering light. If we were to determine the criteria for masculinity in this era, it would be the man’s ability to take a woman that he wanted and have her be obedient to him. The three male protagonists of this story – Mr. B in Pamela, and Lord Orville and Sir Clement Willoughby in Evelina, both occupy different ends of this spectrum of masculinity, which provides a more comprehensive picture of how men are treated in 18th century fiction.

He says “Anyone who follows his nature must be involved in bickering and contention, and must disobey the societal rules and forms, and must be a criminal." Tzu uses various ...
