Me gustaría comparar dos obras clásicas, el uno de cine, y el otro de la literatura. Para la comparación, he elegido el libro “Don Quijote” de Cervantes y la película de Jeunet “Amélie” ("Amélie (2001)"). En mi opinión, estas dos obras hablan de los mismo valores, y sus temas están estrechamente relacionados. Los temas que se plantean por el autor y el director no tienen una fecha de caducidad, son importantes en todo momento. Me puse un fin de hacer claramente los fundamentos de las obras algunos de los detalles y ...

Research Paper

Introduction
The social world is as complex as the physical world. Due to such complexity, sociologists have made considerable efforts to explain various social phenomena through different sociological theories. One of the major sociological theories is functionalism, which has its origins in the works of Herbert Spencer and Emile Durkheim. The functionalist theory explains how societies survive and maintain social stability. It also explores dysfunctional events like suicide. This paper argues that functionalism can provide a reasonable and accurate explanation of the phenomenon of suicide since social factors, like excessive social cohesion or the lack of it and extreme ...

The term ‘body language’ speaks for itself. It conveys the following meaning: your body can speak without words. In fact, it is a kind of non-verbal communication, which sometimes tells more than words. That is why it is important to learn body language, in order to understand it and to know how to apply this knowledge in practice.

Psychologists unanimously agree that emotions can be understood with the help of face expressions. The Facial Expression Program is aimed at making emotions easier to understand (Russell and Fernández Dols 3-4). It is composed of assumptions, methods and theories. The ...

The issue of ethics and the way in which ethical principles govern our lives is always one of concern in the professional field. Over the centuries, mankind has questioned the principles of ethics and ethical considerations as it affects a person’s moral development and has made numerous attempts to define the term, but the truth is that each person is governed by specific ethical standards based on personal moral convictions.

How often we have heard that it is the first impressions that tend to last? Regardless of whether the statement holds true or not, it makes one wonder - what constitutes the first impression? It is not only the dress we wear or the words we say, but also the hidden messages sent by our body unconsciously and this is by far the most important of all impressions. The moment we meet someone, we subconsciously judge him or her on the basis of these overlooked movements of the body and this impression sticks even though the entire process takes ...

Jim McGuigan (2009), in his widely-acclaimed article “Doing a Florida: The Creative Class Thesis and Cultural Policy” talks about Richard Florida, considered as a the guru of management in America. According to McGuigan, Florida’s work The Rise of the Creative Class was a classic case of looking impressive on the surface, but is actually riddled with flaws in the inside. In addition, Florida’s work on cultural policy leans more on the managerialist perspective which resulted to the oversimplication of the scientific reasoning and research (McGuigan 310). To a reader who has no background on the social sciences, ...

Sometimes reality is not an effective medium by which to view the world. In such instances the human eye often looks beyond what is seen in order to reveal what is hidden in plain view, behind the known and mundane aspects that the world has to offer. In those moments it becomes obvious that no matter how mundane a thing is, no matter how commonplace it might seem, there is always something to be seen in the breaths between one click of the camera to the next. There is beauty throughout all aspects of the world, all one needs ...

Body language

Body language is an essential part of communication. Human beings pass most of their communication through body language. The human mind is wired to decipher the non-verbal cues passed by the body before the mind interprets the audio signals produced by the mouth. People can communicate through nonverbal cues without uttering a single word. Body language entails facial expressions, gestures and body posture. The three non- verbal cues make an integral part of the body language. Body language is the most common means of communication; however, body language is understood by few people in the society. There some common nonverbal ...

Abstract

Deception has been considered by law enforcement officers as effective compared to other methods of crime detection. It is a better way of eliciting vital information and evidences that could capture suspected criminals rather than the use of physical means. In fact, it has gain approval of the courts as a legal way of drawing out a confession. However, it is sad to know that at times, the law officers employ malicious detection strategies like hoaxes in order to catch criminals which can affect the credibility of the justice system. Hence, the use of deception to detect a crime is viewed as a paradox ...

Abstract

Although obliged to cover issues in their entirety, with no distortions made in the process, American media tend to misrepresent the reality, as was the case with the depiction of Muammar Gaddafi’s regime implications for the social welfare possibly for political reasons. The noble cause of saving the international image of the USA formerly allied with the late leader in the wake of the Gaddafi demonization could have been the driving force of misrepresentation of the myth related in part to ethical minorities. The knowledge of non-consequentialism and its principles, whether unconsciously or otherwise, allows readers to perceive ...

Introduction

Oedipus tragedy is predicted even before his birth in the oracle of Apollo at Delphi, as his father, Laius, will meet his fatal death in his hand and he will marry his own mother, Jocasta, when he grows up. The oracle is the major reason for his parents to infanticide him. Aristotle, the great Greek philosopher, adverts Oedipus as a best example of tragic hero ever. Aristotle’s panorama about Oedipus is vividly described in the following lines: “must be one who is highly renowned and prosperous-a personage like Oedipus” (Poetics XIII paragraph 2) and “he who hears the tale ...

Claim: Teaching methodology greatly affects the way story books are utilized to teach morality to children.

Claim: Morality might become questionable due to the way teachers teach children.
Claim: Children should be taught different pieces of literature in the form of folklore, fairy tales, fables so that they understand the diversity in moral values across culture.
Neuroscience research states that by the first four years of life, the intelligence of a child develops to about 50 percent whereas by the age of eight years, their intelligence reaches a maximum of 80 percent.

The Case of Deprived Education
Based on the given situation of the subject, it appears that the student has to come up with a justification strong enough to refute her parent’s decision that will deprive her of her education. The adolescent female had to tell a lie or a “white lie” in order to have a reasonable ground to continue attending high school. It falls under Kohlberg’s ideas of moral reasoning defined as judging for what is right and wrong. It is based on human situations wherein individuals had to make difficult decisions for their own good. It has everything to ...

Often times the question, “How can music be fun if I have to study music?” is posed in an education program or academic setting. People often view the act of study as something that is negative or something we do not necessarily enjoy. Yet, can one find a way to study music theory and still play music for fun from the heart? Most ‘great’ musicians of Blues, Country and Rock n’ Roll never studied theory. They learned from family members that passed their art form from generations or by heart. Waylon Jennings said, "I've always felt that blues, rock 'n' ...

The film “Lost in Translation” is really about the difficulties in translation, but not so much in the linguistic sense, as in the human, - translation of others’ feelings ("Lost In Translation (2003)"). The film is not so much the words as the information, the mood and emotions are not concluded just in words. This is perhaps one of the few movies, where the characters’ silence can be comfortable and talk about many things. A slow, as it might seem, dragged action is not the lack of pictures – that's the essence of the whole atmosphere of loneliness – the characters ...

Background Information of Enron

Enron’s history as an entire corporate entity begins in 1985 when Kenneth Lay arranged a formation of Enron by means of combining Internorth and Houston Natural Gas (NPR, 2002).
