Three poems, which have been chosen for this paper: “Because I could not stop for Death” by Emily Dickinson, “A Supermarket in California” by Allen Ginsberg, and “Sailing to Byzantium” by W. B. Yeats, are all very different and belong to different literary trends. However, they all are focused on the subject of death, which they depict from different standpoints, systems of beliefs, and values. In the first poem, “Because I could not stop for Death”, Emily Dickinson describes death using the image of a gentleman, who takes her into his carriage: “He kindly stopped for me – The Carriage” ( ...

Empathy is present in both the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep and in the film Blade Runner based on this novel. Phillip K. Dick’s story is used to reveal a dystopian society in which humans and replicants cohabitate and these androids are detected by The Voight-Kampff test. However, it turns out that androids are capable of developing empathy as well as humans and that not all of them are the same, just like not all the people are the same. Humans possess empathy, but there is also a possibility of androids to acquire it. This point ...

The density of material in the core is about 150 000 kg / m ³ (150 times higher than the density of water and ~ 6.6 times higher than the density of the densest metal on the Earth - osmium), and the temperature in the center of the core is over 14 million K. A ...

These paintings are being compared and analyzed together because they show the standard of what constitute art at that period. Unlike Gentileschi’s previous works, The Annunciation is free from heavy influence of Caravaggio’s style which employs theatrical and irregular composition. Oftentimes this composition is seen as dramatic and in monumental composition. However, at the time when Gentileschi is doing the said painting, he is beginning to develop his own style, away from Caravaggio’s approach. In this work, the painting still shows the lyrical gestures and the sense of involvement with the scene although the figures are ...

On April the 19, 2014, I saw Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat at the University of Colorado, in Boulder, Colorado. It was a dramatic musical wherein the cast gave there all to the performance. Everything came together in a culmination of brilliance in an effort to put on a truly extraordinary play. Aside from a few glitches, the play was fantastic. The actors used the original script. The playwright was Tim Rice. Rice also acted as the lyricist for the musical numbers. The composer was the famed Andrew Lloyd Webber. The genres were multiple, listed as a musical, a comedy, and a religious ...

Men in Cages: Alienation and Liberation in Collateral (2004) and Phone Booth (2002) The thriller and neo-noir genres have always been preoccupied with lost men in dark cities – the presence of the towering modern cityscape in urban thrillers is often used as a metaphor to demonstrate mankind’s alienation in a sprawling, dehumanizing, technology-obsessed city. “What makes the portrayal of the city [in film] as a wild, savage place plausible to us is at least in part our cultural memory that the city can legitimately be described as a jungle” (Light 155). The urban thriller often depicts city life as a depressing, shallow ...

Often touted as an ‘unfilmable’ novel, Yann Martel’s Life of Pi told the story of a young Indian boy named Pi who, over the course of the story, finds himself on a small life raft in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean with only a dangerous Bengal Tiger (whom he names Richard Parker) to accompany him. Here, he goes on a hazardous journey of survival, during which he explores his spirituality and is taken to the depths of his understanding of life itself. Ang Lee’s 2012 film masterfully adapts these themes into an elegant, fairytale-like story that is alternatingly presentational and ...

Introduction

Noble gas is any of 7 chemical elements, which make up group 18 (villa) of periodic table, are neon (Ne), helium (He), krypton (Kr), argon (Ar), radon (Rn), xenon (Xe), and ununoctium (Uon). Noble gases are tasteless, colorless, odorless, nonflammable gases. From the earliest time, they have actually been labeled as group O. This is because it was discovered that their atoms could not actually combine with the atoms of the other elements to form the chemical bonds. They were called inert or rare gases because they were thought to be chemically inert or to be exceedingly rare. However, ...

“What happens when wrong feels right and right feels wrong? When situations that appear to be black and white turn out to be gray?” (The Literary Analyst).The bygone philosophy of novelists writing what they desire stands firm. For me, a director holds the same status when it comes to films, in fact all artists irrespective of their desired form of art should have the liberty to think and make people do the same. This perfectly sounds true of Ben Affleck’s triumphant and remarkable debut in Gone Baby Gone (2007), which is an adaptation of Dennis Lehane’s heavily ...

Interior designs

In the history and filming, interior design has been seen to play a very significant role in passing information to the audience. This is well illustrated in a historical account on interior design which is based on an American movie theater. In the introductory part of the book used (a journal on American culture), the author infers to a shift of one actor from one background to Hollywood theater where everything seems to emphasize interior design and the power it posses to pass the intended message. In one of the paragraphs, the author elaborates on how pictures themselves don’t pass any information ...

Cyberpunk combines futuristic ideas about human nature and technology to provide a new perspective on complex subjects ("Cyberpunk Review"). Film is a great avenue for this cyberpunk perspective! With the use of special effects, CGI, animation, and talented actors/directors a futuristic world can come alive to the viewer through cinema. By taking a look at films that fall within the cyberpunk genre, not only are we usually entertained but also intrigued with psychological dilemma. The films “Ghost in the Shell”, “Blade Runner”, and “Metropolis” are all great examples of how issues such as humanity, identity, and technological progression can be conveyed through science ...

The film follows bounty hunter Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) as he is ordered to hunt down several replicants who have escaped to Earth. The care taken in the creation of the world of Blade Runner, in combination with the abstract, breathtaking story, creates a visual and cultural futurist’ ...

British designers today are creating fashions that incorporate romance and unusual items, ethnicity with 3-dimensional fabrics, and classic colours juxtaposed with city neon bright colours. Victoria Rangayah has made a name for herself creating romantic clothing with a softness that reflects her Lithuanian ethnicity. Her label, z-modem is considered a “contemporary ladies wear fashion label” (youngbritishdesigner.com). Photograph 1depicts her beautifully romantic classic navy blue dress. From the waist up the dress uses sheer fabric in three dimensions with curves of sheer material held together with a brooch. Perhaps the brooch is a piece of antique Lithuanian jewellery because the look of the brooch and ...

Literature Review

Part 1

In the film, the replicant models are only given four-year life spans because they are genetically engineered to be better than humans - stronger, more efficient, better reaction times. By the time they reach four years old, though, they have begun developing their own memories and emotional reactions. Because they are already adult sized and supposedly better than humans in important ways, there is a fear that the emotional immaturity they express may cause greater harm or that they will come to replace humans. This can be seen by comparing the two-year-old model Leon with the four-year-old model ...

Electronic spectroscopy is divided into two: Ultraviolet and Spectroscopy. Electronic spectroscopy is the earliest method of molecular spectroscopy and includes a phenomenon of interaction of molecules with ultra violet lights and visible lights. Absorption of photo results on electronic transition of molecules and electrons are promoted form ground state to higher electronic states. In the display of strata, spectra take the forms of horizontal scales, vertical scales, Ultra violet rays, and ORD. All the scales taken use wavelengths. Electronic spectra originated from the absorption of light photons by molecule results in electronic excitation of molecules with chromospheres. The electronic transition ...
