He calls his illness “the most famous” in British history and lists three areas where the consequences of it can be measured: political, attitudes towards the monarchy, the understanding of mental illness” (Chandler, 74). As understandings of mental illnesses, madness and ...

According to Clifford, how is tribal art displayed in the Hall of Pacific Peoples at the American Museum of Natural History?

Largely the work of the indefatigable Margaret Meat who died in 1978, the installation reveals a large number of exhibits which have been saved from what Clifford aptly describes as a ‘destructive history’.

Paolo Friere speaks on a system of domination. The first and second chapters of Pedagogy of the Oppressed (2000) are to do with objectification that belittles the potential of open minds, and corrupts the abilities of the educator.

The result is a shaky outcome where the benefits are minimal and the deserved are left wanting.
Pedagogy of the Oppressed discusses how conventional education does not recognise the void in humanity. Instead, traditional education is empowered ...
