Based on Homer’s interpretation of how the gods and humans interact, it does not seem that humans really have free will. They are subject to the whims of the gods. When Chryses, a priest of Apollo, asked for his daughter Chryseis to be freed from Agamemnon, he “bore in his hand the scepter of Apollo,” (Homer, p. 1), in order to show his support from the god. Agamemnon refused, and so Chryses prayed to Apollo, and Apollo “came down furious from the summits of Olympus he aimed his shafts at the people themselves, and all day long the ...

Introduction

The commencement and ending of Homer’s epic poem the Iliad depict a rational existence of humans before and after the interference of the immortal beings respectively. The middle passages are different as they present a palpable yet gradual build up of human emotions that warrant an alliance with the gods and goddesses in the text. In turn, a paradox emerges in the depiction of the relationships between the mortals and the immortals in the Homeric poem: the gods are necessary for Homer’s presentation of the humans, but they are also to blame for the unstable attitudes and ...

Identify one or more clinical foreground questions that, if posed, would be addressed by this study. Which PICOT components do your questions capture? Anger and anxiety have been noted as significant influences in the levels of blood pressure in children. However, as within the results of this study in which the RNs studied a group of 264 students between the third and sixth grade, the indication is that anger control is a determinant for BP levels in children but anxiety does not indicate any statistically significant influence (Howell, Rice, Carmon & Hauber, 2007).

Literacy of Emoticons

The literature world and the computer communication systems have diversified mainly due to the new technological advancements. The rise of these contemporary form of textual communication has raised eyebrows however much figurative the spoken or written language tries to communicate.

Others, on the ...

The Age of Enlightenment was an era of American history in which the rise of scientific inquiry and the rise of empirical knowledge was leading many Christians, including Puritans, to leave the faith (Smith 446). In response, Jonathan Edwards delivered the sermon “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” in 1741, in which the author attempted to convince Puritans not to stray from their belief in Christ despite the Enlightenment-era secularism that was present during that time. However, in many more important ways, Edwards’ own perspective on God in this sermon solidified the Age of Enlightenment’s assertion ...

An Analytic Review

In Robert Hayden’s “Those Winter Sundays” we get a glimpse of the author’s childhood relationship with his father. In this work, Hayden describes a child’s view of a father from a now-adult perspective. His regret is evident, and the sadness in his voice rings down the corridors of time. “Those Winter Sundays” begin with a description of Hayden’s father rising in the early hours even on “Sundays too” (1), letting the reader know he gets up every morning in the same way. Using consonance, Hayden drives home both the hour and the temperature, noting “the ...

Introduction

When it comes to story-telling, many people emphasize the story part, instead of the telling one. Nevertheless, the manner in which a story is told can be very influential in its reception. In fact, many people would say that the story itself changes depending on the discourse that presents it. This came to the limelight in the end of the nineteenth century with the Modernist current. Authors such as James Joyce and Virginia Woolf deliberately modified the way that stories were told. They utilized many techniques that allowed them greater range of expression, many of which were not even ...

Reflective Essay on the Book “Wonder”

Reflective Essay on the Book “Wonder”

Abstract

It is important to teach children, and adults, how to accept individuals who have a disability. This eliminates the awkwardness when they encounter such individuals. Exposing children to individuals with different disabilities at a young age teaches them how to be responsible for their actions. Educators can assist with this process by adding a few techniques into their curriculum by tweaking their lessons without any extra work. As an educator becomes more familiar with the adaptations, it will become second nature. R.J. Palacio’s book, “Wonder” begins with a young teenage boy, August, ...

Philosophy and Logic

The nature of philosophy as, as Socrates put it, a metaphorical gadfly demonstrates the relationship that the discipline has with other academic and intellectual pursuits. The idea that Socrates was attempting to express is in consideration of the role of philosophy in the sciences and the philosopher in society (Plato 2016). This role, for Socrates went well beyond simple academic pursuits, but rather, extended into all aspects of life. In this sense, it is important to consider this metaphor in relation to the conception that Socrates had of the implications of rational thought and the mind's pursuit of knowledge. ...

One of the most important facets of human interaction is communication. Communication is an essential element to building personal and professional relationships. Furthermore, it can make or break a person in the professional field. Exchanging feedback with someone is bigger than being able to say “hi” and “bye”. Communication is not one-dimensional. It should be liquid and pliable like the endless options of professions in the world. There is no one way to master the art of communication. That fact alone is common knowledge. There are plenty of reasons why communication as a professional is important, and there are ...

Introduction

Millions of cells are always being removed in the human body in order to regulate biological pathways and keep cells healthy through a particular mechanism called cell death or apoptosis. Through apoptosis, such homeostatic death of cells has been defined as a tolerogenic or a non-immunogenic event for many years [1].

Introduction

Person-situation interaction discusses about the argument whether a situation or a person is more effective than an individual’s behavior (Kahle 13).

UniversityAccommodating Gender Identity

Gender identity and gender roles have been going through drastic changes over the last few years. Gender roles have been strictly challenged as women are continuing to do well in the work force, and yet there is still so much about gender identity that is misunderstood. Considering the rise of multiple gender identities, including nonbinary and genderqueer identities, it’s important to realize that the way people have been approaching gender roles and identity has been extremely hurtful. This is especially true considering that the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) still labels the dislocating feeling of ...

It is ironical that migrant laborers, who comprise a whopping 85 percent of UAE workforce, face severe issues regarding discrimination, human rights violation, human trafficking, and racism. Newspaper and report headlines stating "conditions for Abu Dhabi's migrant workers shame the West", and UAE: A Move to Protect Migrant workers" duly expose the harsh conditions faced by migrants from surrounding nations. There is a great deal of literature on the conditions these helpless workers face on the foreign soil; however, there is a dearth of studies linking the impacts of these circumstances to the psychological health of migrant laborers.

Emotional Shock: Natrum personalities can be called as loners. They like to be alone. Being in a company leads to irritability among these patients.

The genre of dark comedy is a fascinating subset of the standard comedy film, combining elements of drama and dark subject matter with comedic elements of the absurd and ironic to create unique works that poke fun not only at the foibles of mankind, but the inherent silliness of extremely serious things. Dark comedy can take many forms, and both American and English sensibilities in particular have their own attitudes and characteristics in their own examples. Two of the most well-regarded dark comedy films of recent years are 1996’s Fargo (directed by the Brothers Coen) and 2008’s ...

Abstract

Shakespeare’s plays ‘Romeo and Juliet’ and ‘Hamlet’, both tragedies have at their crux a strained relationship between the parents and their children. It is this strained relationship that causes a rift between them and ultimately leads to many of the decisions that the children make. Hamlet has a love-hate relationship with his mother that colors his views on other women and Juliet has a very formal relationship with her parents. Marrying Romeo is more of a teenage rebellion against her oppressive parents. In the two plays it is the rather dysfunctional and strained parent-child relationship that forms the ...

Even though the main story in “Paradise Lost” can be conceived to tragic, somewhat, it is a story of how Adam and Eve regain paradise. Book IX of the poem comes forth as the climax of the story in the poem and if at all Milton’s intention was to construct the poem as a tragedy, then the poem would have culminated at this point. However, Book X is introduced so as to give a resolution for the disobedience of Adam and Eve towards God. The regaining of paradise by Adam and Eve is manifested in the manner in ...

The sexuality of the characters results in the internalization of the unequal balance of power between women and ...
