Essays on Reality

False memory amounts to fabricated or distorted recollection of events that never happened in the first place. It is believed that memory is a recollection of things that happened in the past, accurately documenting them, storing them and making them available for remembering any time. A twist is brought in when false memory is put into perspective. This then makes memory get prone to fallacies (Frankel 1993). False memory is common among very many people and can range from mere curiosity to just developing thoughts about something that never happened but one which a person becomes certain it happened. ...

Introduction

Realism is a unique philosophical belief that suggests that a person’s reality (which can be characterized by his perception of life, including the things a person has and the experiences he has encountered), or a certain aspect of such reality is dependent on subjective factors and is ontologically independent from standard conceptual schemes, linguistic practices, beliefs, perceptions, and other established system . Realism is generally the view that entities, which in this are humans, have an objective reality, a reality that is completely and ontologically independent of those entities’ conceptual schemes, linguistic practices, beliefs, and etc. Thus, entities including ...

Chapter Analysis

This chapter begins with interior monologue/meditation of one Walt Whitman, who tries to distinguish between beauty and ugliness, valuable concepts and useless ones; from the annals of cultural heritage. Then, he finds it unnecessary to try to establish the differences highlighted above unless they are necessary. He then resorts to accept the actual reality of the American experience.
There was a purported cultural revolution, which was to happen in 1855, archived in the book leaves of grass first edition. However, the much-anticipated revolution did not take place because it is virtually impossible for anyone single poet to change the ...

In most cases, conflict in the workplace seems to be a fact of life. It has been witnessed where different people with different goals and needs have come into conflict. It seems like workplace conflicts are inevitable. Often, intense personal animosity can result out of conflicts leading to good people quitting, morale can plummet, and sometimes violence can erupt. However, the fact that conflicts exist is not a bad thing in essence: as long as it is resolved effectively, it can lead to personal and professional growth (Mayer, 2004). In many cases, effective conflict resolution can differentiate between positive ...

Reality involves the manner in which events occur in a practical scenario. Fiction incorporates perception of occurrences without considering their ability to take place in the manner explained. Imperatively, these explanations can merit constituting the broader aspect of opinions. In literature world, the determination of an explanation as being truth or fiction depends on its comparison with the happenings in the real world scenarios. In a given piece, the involvement of fiction focuses on the purpose of emphasis as well as the depiction of extremes within the boundaries of possibilities in each situation. The reality is contrary to the ...

The Allegory of the Cave describes the shadows on the cave wall, which was taught to the prisoners as he reality since birth. It also depicts humans as prisoners of their own body.
Plato wants to tell us that the prisoners who were inside the cave believed that what they see on the cave wall is the reality that in fact, it was just the reflection coming from the fire and objects behind them. When one of the prisoners was released and witnessed what the reality looks outside the cave, he realized that shadows were just illusions.
Plato plays ...

Research and nursing are inseparable. Different health issues will arise from time to time leading to confusion among practitioners. Some conditions will only be understood through execution of ample research. Research is mainly carried out when the professionals in a given field are not aware of a given element that arises. Nursing research is usually sensitive, and it requires consideration of unique procedures known as paradigms and methodologies. The paradigms must be defined in line with the cultural safety of the chosen methods. The paradigms address cultural safety in different ways through excellent consideration of philosophical, ethical, and cultural ...

Wittgenstein employs the picture theory of meaning effectively to explain many important things in philosophy. In essence, the picture theory of meaning by Wittgenstein is a theory in which he argued that the state of things or the atomic facts could b pictured by a meaningful proposition. Using this theory, Wittgenstein managed to compare spatial pictures with the concept of pictures. In essence, the picture theory is seen as a correspondence to the truth theory. Wittgenstein’s arguments were to the effect that statements can only be meaningful in the event that they can be easily pictured ...

Some parents prohibit their children to watch TV. They say it makes them dumber, or there is much cruelty in the world of television. However, I cannot agree with this point of view. There are many educational programs on modern tv. Besides, there are much more dangrers in the modern world around us than they show on tv. This essay is aimed at analyzing different opinions regarding this topic. In the essay I will claim that television can be useful. The essay I will divide into three parts: positive impact of television; counterarguments and the part devoted to analyzing ...

Summary and Annotation

Putting Walden’s philosophy and that of Henry David Thoreau, it is easy to notice the interconnectedness of their philosophies and their practicality. Both use metaphors that in the end become a philosophic system. Walden speaks about the relationship between man and his environment. Thoreau on the other hand demonstrates that human beings can overcome struggle that exists between the self and the society but then, nothing can be trusted if proof is not offered, “No way of thinking or doing, however ancient, can be trusted without proof.”(Hamby 1). These try to bring out meaning of the inherent ...

The person-centred therapy is an effective positive approach to managing crises in a client’s life. It manages to positively manage the crisis in a client’s life because it has its roots from the concepts of humanistic psychology. According to humanistic psychology, individuals are perceived to being capable and autonomous, and possess the ability to effectively resolve their conflicts, realize their potential, and also be able to change their lives in a positive way (Corey 115). The person-centred therapy was designed to specifically focus on the client being in charge of the therapy session, thus developing a greater ...

Basically, it can be divided into two logical parts – time when Christy explores his new home and the period when he goes for a rescue ...

Introduction

Utopic and anti utopic movies and novels have always interested writers and directors from all over the world. In some sense, it is interesting to create new worlds, with new social and political systems. On the other hand, it is interesting, as well, to look for disadvantages of modern society and try to improve them. People were always striving to create a better world, even with words and images. In the past several years, there have been many movies devoted to the issue of future alternative reality.

Several theories and arguments have been put forth about the existence of God. There are arguments that try to prove the fact that God exists and there are those that disregard his existence. Some of those arguments include the ontological, cosmological and teleological. This essay will explore and analyze arguments concerning the existence of God using the ontological argument as propagated by Saint Anselm, Archbishop of Canterbury. According to this argument, it is self contradictory to deny the fact that there exists a greater being. The truth is, according to the argument, that the greater being exists and the ...

One of the often heard advices people attempt to adhere to is seizing every moment in life and living the life to the fullest. From time to time people give unwanted advices, introducing the rules of life and reality. Are there really set rules that will guarantee a happy and successful life? Should people follow rules and concoct dreamy ideas about love, life, and relationships? Many are so caught up with life’s events and try to capture the meaning by encouraging people to embrace the now and plan about the future. Movies have a way of describing life ...

In the sociology, there are important concepts used to analyze social phenomena in order to reveal their contingency. Modern sociological concepts are mainly compared to a set of analytical tools. These are in turn used to evaluate epiphenomena in order to reveal underlying forces and categories. Therefore, postmodern concepts can be viewed as a set of special effects used to reveal the contingency of the phenomena. As seen in the special effects of various films, the audience is not asked to believe in the reality of the effect, but they are suspended on the belief in the reality.

In my point of view, many problems in people’s life happen because they are bored. When they do not know what to do, often it is much simpler to think of something not useful or decent and start realizing it. I am sure that when people have some specific goal in life, and when they are moving towards it, they are not bored and live happy life. In this essay, I will consider certain arguments for and against my viewpoint.
First, I want to state that people who are bored can harm themselves. It is essential for people ...

Article summary

Person- Centered Approach was formally introduced by Carl Rogers in the year 1902-1987. It focuses on a belief that individuals are all born with an inherent ability mainly directed towards their psychological growth as well as development if the external surroundings allow them participate. This type of counseling commonly known as client-centered counseling or person-centered counseling is an approach that sees people in a multicultural population as portraying an innate ability to develop them towards their full potential. However, the theory is inevitably distorted by the multicultural population experiences especially by those people, who tell others that they are ...

Part I Question 2: Plato’s theory of forms

Forms, as displayed by Plato’s perspectives, are an imagination of a real object. As a matter of fact, what we perceive by sight are not the actual objects. His theories revolve around the belief that the reality in objects is floating. While the forms may be invisible to the human eye, our souls have engaged in the eternal world prior to being assimilated in a physical human body, and retain a memory of them (Field). From Plato’s perspective, forms are the imaginative part of the objects that are created in our minds. In reality, they are things ...

I am in agreement with the observations made by the two classmates. In my response, I discuss the main real life issues and events that influence my decisions. Television provides a lot of friendship coupled with the social networks. In America, the lifestyle of people and social interaction has a lot to do with the television. Many shows emphasize this concept such as desperate homemakers and Friends. People spent most of their time following these episodes since the shows depict the reality. It is a form of living through the characters displayed in various series. The likes of Seinfeld ...

Essay

I agree with Johnson on the argument that watching television makes someone smarter. I agree with Johnson that people’s intelligence has improved by watching complex themes in the television. People today are better positioned than those of the ancient time are. Some of the current television shows are nutritional since they teach people to pay attention and make inferences as they interact with other people in the society.
I disagree with the author’s comment that political events such as torture and racial profiling amount to social relationships. I disagree with the author’s claim that television is ...

Term paper

Every day we encounter many people, observe their behavior, listen to what they say, think about them, try to understand them. We often think that mental characteristics of man - his position, aspirations and feelings - are perceived by us as well as his physical data. Most people believe that the perception occurs automatically, and as a result, they clearly can answer the question: what constitutes one or the other person? In order to better understand how the perception occurs, we need to understand the three basic elements of this phenomenon:
1) the identity of the perceived person, at ...

It has been a documented phenomenon in the field of psychology that art can serve as an outlet for suffering. Olga Gonithellis, MA has written about the topic. It is not that all artists suffer, but many arts suffering can increase their “Artiness.” (Gonithellis, 1). This is a central theme of James Baldwin’s story “Sonny’s Blues.” Sonny, the protagonist in the story was from a poor black neighborhood and like many musicians in his time in place, used drugs. In the story Sonny is an ex heroin addict uses music to ease his suffering. The central question ...

Allegory of the Cave, also known as the Analogy of the Cave, is a story narrated by the famous Greek philosopher (Plato) in his popular writing called the Republic. The story talks about three men chained to the wall such that they cannot turn their heads. Behind the prisoners is a fireplace. There is also a parapet (between the prisoners and the fire) along which puppeteers can walk. As the puppeteers hold up puppets, they cast shadows onto the wall of the cave. However, the prisoners cannot see the real objects; they can only see shadows on the wall ...

Abstract

In the stories of young people with schizophrenia, relevant themes exist which connect their seemingly disparate lives. Many would say that schizophrenia is a condition with symptoms such as paranoia and existential crisis. However, no two schizophrenic cases are alike and each person is affected very differently as they may experience negative and, or positive symptoms. Some people hear voices telling them to kill themselves or harm others, while others claim they can communicate with God, animals, or natural forces such as the sun. The latter examples, although hard to believe, must be viewed as positive symptoms. In order ...

Introduction:

The different orders of Greek architecture include: Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. The orders are defined by the particular type of column and the effective entablature that is consequently used as a basic unit. The Doric was the earliest and the simplest and on which the noblest monuments were erected. It was followed by ionic and Corinthian. These styles appeared in the temples in the Greece temples after 500 B.C.
Their importance is that they were used in the sense that they were used in the ancient Greek buildings. Examples buildings built even now have some Doric order. Their decorative ...

Introduction:

The idea of trusting, and mistrusting your senses has been part of philosophical discourse for a very long time. In The Republic, Book VII Plato writes of one of Socrates’s discourses most commonly referred to as The Cave. This provides written verification that humankind has been questioning their senses and cognition since 360 BCE. If we fast-forward a couple of millennia or so, we can view this from the Cartesian prospective or bring it into modern times and into The Matrix.

Thesis:

The senses and our understanding of our perceptions cannot always be trusted.
Argument:
In The Republic, Book ...

A body of literature is relevant in any research. It is considered as a published collection of information that is relevant to addressing the research question.
Research is about answering gaps in knowledge and literature. In line with this, the research question provides a guideline for the researcher to determine the points he or she wishes to answer or address.
Questions such as what is the existing problem and what makes the problem relevant are commonly tackled during the definition of the research question. It provides the core of the research because it determines the focus of the researcher ...

Literary work forms one of the major cultural influences and expressions of any society. Through literature, a society can posit its position on various issues and can attempt to influence others to see issues from their perspectives. Under such circumstances, any appreciation of a piece of literature requires the reader critically to examine the underlying structure that has influenced the writer. It is while viewing a piece of work with reference to the author that two major continental approaches arise. In structuralism, the various element of people’s culture (including literature) are viewed with reference to a larger over-arching ...

Sociology: DS2 Part 1

The first theme selected for this discussion is social construction of reality. This theme is related to a theory with assumption that reality is relative to the socio- cultural environment where people live and interact. It consists of one’s country, religious affiliation; city, education among a few other variables (Korgen, 52). From my personal point of view this theory contains inconsistencies because reality is relative to one’s personal experience. As such, it was my proposal to investigate this occurrence by conducting a brief survey asking a small sample of respondents to explain their views of reality. The ...

He said that if people reject art then they are rejecting a very crucial means of communication. Leo Tolstoy considered art as a means of passing a message silently. Art passes a lot of messages and it can be used to express ones feelings. He argued that ...

Cause and Effect of Gun Violence in America

INTRODUCTION
Cultural and social problems attributed to gun violence have been a prevailing phenomenon for years. In a society where one could be fragile to the effects of cultural crackdowns and psychological breakdowns, guns have been a prevalent tool in addressing violent actions. Guns induce both violence and personal protection, but using it would likely trigger more instances of violence than self-defense. This is best illustrated in the series of school shooting tragedies that have gripped the whole nation and the world in fear for their safety and the saddening reality of the disintegration of society. However, despite the ...

In this paper, I will discuss the present-at-hand and the ready-at-hand in Heidegger’s philosophy. Martin Heidegger (1889-1976) is a German philosopher who is often thought of in terms of the Existentialist movement in Continental philosophical tradition, but who did not prefer to be classified as an existentialist (McBride 131). Heidegger concerns himself with the deep metaphysical question of being in his book Being and Time — a job he never completed in his lifetime (Blattner 9). Heidegger has an ambitious project in his book — that is fundamentally to investigate being, a project he feels has been forgotten by philosophers ( ...

The NFL has staunchly denied any relationship between the concussions received playing football and brain diseases which impair functioning later in life. Recently, proof has emerged that previous NFL players develop different types of dementias and brain diseases in half the time, and much more frequently than the general population. The PBS affiliation, Frontline, published an article called “76 of 79 Deceased NFL Players Found ...

In his book, Martel is trying to express his views on truth and reason. Through the two different accounts of the survival journey of Pi, Martel tries to explore the nature of truth. In his views truth is greater than reason and sensory capabilities, and sometimes to understand the truth better, one has to go beyond reason and empirical devices. He presents his readers with two stories in order to establish that truth is not all about objective rationality; it is closely linked to how one interprets reality. He unequivocally believes that truth is not always determined by the ...

Descartes by invoking Cogito in the second meditation was able to control metaphysical doubts supervening on his initial conquest that was based on conscious will. However, the Cogito has refuted the mathematical and physical hypothesis of a deceiving God only momentarily in regard of ascertaining of our self-esteem. The understanding of conscious will is a feeling that one is doing things (Cunning, 2010). This feeling occurs in almost everything we do, implying time and time again we consciously cause actions. But the feeling may not be an accurate expression of what is happening in our bodies as our actions ...

"The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" (“Prufrock”) was first published in the June 1915 issue of Poetry: A Magazine of Verse (“Poetry”). It was written by American-British poet T. S. Eliot (“Eliot”) (1888–1965). Eliot first started work on the poem in February, 1910. As the Overseas Editor of Poetry, Erza Pound (“Pound”) had instigated the whole business (n.a., n.d., “Bio,” 2014; and McCoy, 1992).
Prufrock has been studied by many, many talented scholars. In fact, what makes it such an outstanding piece of poetry is the fact that people can read so many meanings into it. For ...

Mark Deuze (2007) expressed in his book Media Work the changes that media practitioners experience in their work and lifestyle through the developments in culture, society, economy, and technology, which in turn make ways for new paradigms such as convergence culture, and liquid life. He used such paradigms for discussing the altering condition of media work. In the book, he described it as a complicated reality with contradicting components, necessarily working on the way to the convergence of content, creativity, connectivity, and commerce. With these contemporary circumstances, power has also been shifting. The term new media is used nowadays, ...

Human beings certainly do not perceive reality like it really is. This fact is immediately evident through both experiential and experimental evidence. If our senses do give us information about the way things truly are, then how is it that if two people go to a concert, they can walk away with different reviews? Was the concert good or was the concert bad? Which one better reflects reality? Furthermore, what explains the phenomena experienced by people who have had brain injuries? Oliver Sacks has written entire books on the subject, including “The Man Who Mistook his Wife for a ...

Introduction

The Seventh Seal is a Swedish drama fantasy movie that Ingmar Bergman wrote and directed, before its release in 1957. The title of the movie is an adaptation from the Book of Revelation which has the mentioning of the phrase, Seventh Seal. The seventh seal in the Book of Revelation is accompanied with God’s or heaven’s silence and this divine silence is a chief motif and theme in the film.

Personal Interpretation of The Seventh Seal as a Statement about the Human Condition

For one, the drama seems to portray human beings as very finite. Because of this quality, however hard man tries, he is outwitted by fate. The ultimate ...

Looking up to the sky has been one of the most important activities of humans. Early civilizations are finding answers to their theological principles in the stars while others look guidance as they travel (Rosenburg & Russo, np). Astronomy is a vital part for the foundation of the religious beliefs and concepts of most of the early civilization. They view astronomy as a tool or as a backbone to their religious, social and cultural beliefs (Sprajc 87). Curiosity and hunger for knowledge have been the fuel for mankind to search answers in space. The significance of astronomy to life could ...

The foundation for human consciousness is the mind. All of human perception and knowledge is processed through the mind; without the mind-- without the brain-- human beings would not be able to understand the world in the way that they do. Humanity is arguably unique in its understanding of the world; it has names for physical things and concepts, whereas other beings are incapable of this level of understanding. However, because the mind is so important for humanity’s understanding of the world, it begs the question of whether or not the mind is the only way for humanity ...

Depending on who you speak to, or what pockets of society are examined, the concept of the American Dream is a relative concept. The mantra is depicted as if one works hard and saves money, then one can own a house, a car or two, and have a family with two children. This 1950s invention has proven to be highly reductionist. It paints a picture of the Leave it to Beaver sitcom, where a husband who works from 9 to 5, returns home after a day’s work to be received by a beaming wife, a hot meal and ...

Don Delillo’s White Noise not only compels the readers’ brain to think, but also leaves room for discussion of the author's definition of reality. The story constantly challenges each character’s mind with the uncertainty of reality due to fears that each of them have; the fear of death is a persistent idea through out the novel. Each character has internal conflicts that cause life's uncertainty, mostly with simulacra and the idea that the reality they are experiencing is just a figment that their mind has created in order to cope with the fact that they will eventually ...

Research is indicative of the fact that we form more positive impression of physically attractive people as compared to unattractive people. But, the advertisements, movies, and fairy tales play a significant role in making some adjustments in order to facilitate positive feeling about unattractive individuals. For example, the advertisements, movies, and fairy tales present some beautiful characters that are attractive and some ugly characters that are not attractive. They present such a story that sometimes the beautiful characters betray people, but the ugly characters help them. The ugly characters mostly remain ready to assist and support people in the ...

Shakespeare is well-remembered for his exemplary work in the work of literature. Considered by many as the finest author during his time, he wrote books on different genres. However, it is how he managed to employ certain themes in all the genres he worked on that communicates his mastery of literature. He mostly worked on here genres of literature: History, comedy and tragedy. The two genres that this paper will work on are tragedy and comedy. The paper will focus n Merchant of Venice as the comedy and Macbeth as the tragedy. Using these two works, the paper will ...

There are several tragedies in the history of English Literature. Oedipus and Willy are two such characters in such stories, whose lives are torn apart by tragedies. Both these characters make some choices, which change their lives devastatingly. Yet, in spite of the manifold tragedies in their lives, the characters share some similarities in fate, and yet differences in their devastating sadness as well.
Oedipus is the son of King Laius and his queen Jocasta of the kingdom of Thebes. Abandoned at birth, he was brought up by King Polybus and Queen Merope of the kingdom of Corinth. ...

Despite the fact that the exploitation of child labor is a booming phenomenon nowadays, the stance of society as a whole seems to remain rather indifferent. Most studies that examine the issue tend to approach it through the «paradigm» of the scientific approach involved (e.g. sociology, human rights, psychology, political science) without proceeding to an holistic approach of the matter. Moreover, even the conclusions of those different approaches do not seem to be coordinated. Some endorse the belief that child labor must end immediately, without further discussion while others support that such views do not take into account the ...

Throwing garbage in the yellow trash can instead of the black one is not admirable, but it may encourage people to think about their consumption and what sustainability means. It is one tool, and the last line of defense in a more comprehensive strategy to reduce waste. Recycling is not difficult, requires no sacrifice, and is much easier than changing lifestyle. It is much easier to recycle plastic bottles than it is to organize and participate in car-pooling. Trading in the SUV for a much smaller fuel efficient car could help, but many Americans identity is intertwined with the ...

Rene Descartes was known as the leading contemporary scientist of Europe. During his lifetime, he was famous for the mathematical and mechanistic accounts that explored the fields of physics, cosmology, optics, physiology and biology. But merely a few decades after he passed away, his scientific systems were completely forgotten. But despite all this, Descartes still remains one of the widely read personalities of his age; the reason being not his scientific legacy but the developments of philosophy by him (Descartes). Yet the most significant works of Descartes include his proves about the existence of God and further study on ...

Nowadays computers are widely used in almost every area of our life. It plays especially crucial role to people, who are running organizations, industries, or even countries. Almost anything that is known to modern society is run or designed by computers.

The vast majority of jobs cannot be done without computers. From the very beginning this, ‘mechanical brain’ made a great impact ...

“Artists are men who wish to become inhuman. They seek painfully the traces of inhumanity, traces which are never found in nature. These are real truths and beyond them we know no reality.” 1
Art such as paintings and sculptures are man’s way of expressing their thoughts. In the eyes of an artist, they can see the suffering behind the beauty, and this reason allows them to create beautiful artworks. Artists desire to fully express themselves using only their canvass and their brush; hence, they will attempt to construct their masterpiece in the most creative way in order ...

In Bertrand Russell’s, ‘Appearance and Reality’, he launches the idea of what philosophy really is. In his view philosophy is the critical analysis of life’s question. This is because in many cases, ordinary people and even scientists will answer life’s questions ordinarily and even simply. But philosophy explores the opportunity to critically analyze these issues awhile looking at all angles. People will often make assumptions about what they see, what they feel and generally about their own experiences as well as those of others. However, this is usually because people don’t take their time to ...

Photography, undoubtedly more than any other medium, is symbolic of the nature of the modern western societies and is widely practiced. Photography is often employed in various fields including manufacturing, business, mass communication, art, science, as well as recreational purposes. Ansel Adams argued “people do not take a photograph; they make it.” Adams contends that it is important to put much effort while taking an image (Bryant 1996 p 29). Photographs are primarily concerned with appearances and through photos, the past blends well into the present (Bryant 1996 p 24). It is through images captured by the camera that ...

Theory of Constraints (TOC) is a popular management methodology developed in the 1980s, Eliyahu Goldratt, which is based on finding and managing key constraint system, which determines the success and effectiveness of the whole system. The main feature of the methodology is that making efforts over the management of a very small number of aspects of the system, an effect much greater than the result of simultaneous action on all or most of the problem areas of the system immediately.
The approach is based on the theory of constraints to identify this limitation and manage to increase the rate ...
