What is still largely unclear is how the interrelationships influenced the craft of composition. This is ...

A well-known saying “There is no such thing as a free lunch” belongs to Milton Friedman, Nobel Peace Prize winner in Economic Sciences (Tucker, 2008, p. 27).

Abstract

Plato proposed that the ultimate form of government was either an oligarchy or kingdom. Pericles held the belief that democracy was the form of government under which prominence grew.

In the introduction to Hunter's Shakespeare and the Comedy of Forgiveness, the author announces his intention to combat oversimplifications that have arisen over the past few decades with regards to the scholarship of Shakespeare, wherein the attitude of Shakespeare itself at the time of his writing would actually reflect the politics and intent of the work itself (e.g. King Lear having a sad ending indicating Shakespeare being despondent at the time of its composition).

Among the phrases that can best show the way of thinking that started acting at that time, there is one William Gilbert wrote in his Preface: “LIFE is a Chemical Process: In that of every Individual there has ...

Stories about journalists investigating scandals have always been popular topics for films. First and foremost it can be explained by a desire of a human being to rummage in the staff of other people, to take the skeleton out of a cupboard and learn all the ins and outs of another person.

And when it comes to political scandals, their interest is boosted even more.

The film, directed by Alan J. Pakula All the President’s Men, is a paragon of a film, where journalists ...

The first greatest contribution of Karl Marx in political and social philosophies can be summed up by his utmost regard to the proletariats.

The poor produces wealth but he is alienated to it (Bottomore, p. 23 ). This means that he cannot enjoy the fruits of his labor. He could not have enough money to purchase the very thing that he creates.
