Essays on Staging.

Introduction

Cancer disease encompasses about 200 different types of the disease which take different types of treatments too. Many of such are curable, others are controllable, and symptoms such as pain can be relieved. The behavior and treatment of cancer depends largely on how early the cancer was detected. All types of cancer cannot be treated using a single reliable treatment procedure but current major methods used by clinicians include: surgery where the cancerous tissue is completely removed, chemotherapy where the cancerous tissues are destroyed or the growth of the cells is inhibited, radiotherapy where the cancerous tissues are destroyed ...

Abstract

'Gothic' term represents medieval art that carries a strange history. The style of art developed in Northern France and spread to the rest of Western Europe. Late Gothic art expanded well into the 16th century before getting consumed by the Renaissance art. Gothic period carries splendid examples of sculptures, stained glass, fresco, panel painting, ivories and illuminated manuscripts. The essay offers a perspective on the popularity of Gothic ivories and how they encouraged the devotional practice. The ivory diptychs were used as sophisticated tools and were seen as physical vestiges of the divine. Gothic ivories were the visual cues ...

After The War is considered to be one of the most iconic and ground breaking works of influential playwright Philip Kan Gotanda, who was appointed as a tenured faculty member at the University of California Berkeley's department of theatre, dance and performance studies in 2014. The staging of Gotanda’s play at the San Francisco Asian Art Museum that I viewed recently was markedly different and unique from how the play was first enacted on stage at the American Conservatory Theatre in the 2006-07 period. The play was renamed After The War Blues, and instead of being presented as ...

Analysis of the Character of Shakespeare's Macbeth in the Social and Historical Contexts

The play "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare, which is based on the Scottish history, appears to be not so much a work of art as a political response to the era in which it was necessary to develop a Scottish theme, emphasize the historical friendship of England and Scotland, and tell about the popular witches and witchcraft at the new royal court. Undoubtedly, tragedies are the creative heritage of William Shakespeare. They express the power of his brilliant mind and the essence of his era, precisely because the subsequent periods comprehended their conflicts through the prism of the Shakespearean works ...

Cancer diagnosis

Cancer is diagnosed by an expert by critically examining the tissue or the cell samples through a microscope. It can also be done by carrying out tests on cells of the DNA, RNA and proteins (Schwarzenböck et al., 2012). Physical assessment of the patient and family medical history are also essential during diagnosis. Furthermore, a doctor will have to carry out an imaging procedure of some body parts. These imaging procedures can be approached in several ways such as CT scan, nuclear scan, MRI, Ultrasound, X-rays, and PET scan. X-rays uses low doses of radiation to generate pictures ...

Introduction

Business organizations today are committed to form a business strategy that will eventually bring them success through competitive advantage and appropriate marketing strategy.

Introduction

Cancer affects the body’s most basic unit, the cell. Normally, cells grow and divide to form new cells. When cells grow old, they die to make room for new ones and new cells grow only when the body needs them. However sometimes the old cells do not die or new cells are produced when not needed by the body they form tumors. Tumors can be either benign or malignant (National Cancer Institute, 2011). and organs.

Slide 2

Benign tumors are non-cancerous and when removed they do not grow back. Malignant tumors are cancerous and most instances life threatening. When malignant ...

1. What does “behavior reflects personality” mean? How is physical evidence related to behavior? Explain modus operandi and signature aspects of violent crimes. Finally, explain the components of crime classification that you learned about.

The term “behavior reflects personality” refers to the fact that although every crime committed is unique in its own way, certain behaviors related to these crimes fit noticeable patterns. By focusing on the distinct pieces of these patterns, it is then easier to determine the profile of the suspect’s personality. According to an article from the American Psychological Association, “In a homicide case, for example, FBI agents glean insight into [a] personality through questions about the murderer's behavior at four crime phases” (Winerman, 2004). The article states that these four phases include Antecedent, Method & Manner, Body ...

Staging of kidney disease in patients involves assigning the stage of the disease based on the level to which the kidney of the patient in question is infected. Chronic kidney disease is defined as either kidney damage or GFR less than 60ml/min//1.73m squared for three months or more. Staging is important because it makes the work of the medical practitioners easy in terms of patient treatment (Hamm, 2010). As a result of staging, medical practitioners are in a better position of knowing the exact patients with the most advanced level of kidney infection with relative ease. This makes it very efficient ...

Introduction

Over the last 50 years, explanations related to recreational behaviour have grown complex and sophisticated. More information about this topic has come to light as experts engage in comprehensive research about various issues associated with the topic. Having been a fan of human sciences for a long time, I have also decided to conduct my own research on the topic particularly focusing on one aspect and this is the educational and psychological theories that drive recreation behavior. I chose to concentrate on three theories and these are the Flow theory, The Self Determination Theory and the Individual Experience Paradigm. To do ...

In order to do a trip to New York, I and a group of my friends had to plan it in advance and calculate time and costs of stay there. First of all, in order to see four performances on Broadway, it would take us a week of time to stay in New York. The roundtrip flight tickets would be around $270 per person. Potential accommodation would have to be quite far from the city centre and Manhattan in order to save some money. One of the potential options might be Sun Bright Hotel in Chinatown, which would cost $180 for 6 ...

Justice is the quality of being just or fair. Additionally, can be defined as the exercise of administrative law; the act of determining and assigning rewards or punishments.

Conscience, the sense of right and wrong, in most cases is used as a guide in obeying just rules and disobeying unjust rules. Martin (1), who was ...

The lessons I learned

Corporate social responsibility is America’s phenomena. Many employees are involved in voluntarism. Nevertheless, there is even more people, who simply believe that volunteering is one of the means to find out how to be a true citizen, become a better person, show appreciation, improve professional and individual skills. Engagement in volunteering activities is more complex than it seems to be. Feeding Children Everywhere is only four years in this sphere. Their structure includes a couple of departments, which make the process effective. Each department places interns, paid employees and volunteers. This is a great work force upon the same goal and vision. ...

Theater is one of the most ancient forms of art. The beginning of Western civilization, ancient Greece, lived a very important part in the development of this form, with many plays reaching classical status, like Oedipus King and the Oresteia trilogy. Aristotle, one of the most important Greek philosophers, offered six elements of drama in his work Poetics: setting, characters, theme, plot, language and music. These have served as a reference to study these types of works of art from antiquity to this day. The first three will serve as a guide for the analysis and comparison of important works from two ...

Musical Theater and Musical shows have been around for centuries. In the beginning, a musical show was the “integration of narrative, song, and dance characteristics” that “glorified beautiful women and surrounded them with comedian, singers, and dancers” (Reynolds and McCormik). From the early 1900 to 1930’s, the theater supporter was charmed by Minstrel shows, Variety Shows, and Follies which led to musicals with dramatic action. As the theater progressed, dance numbers became more a part of the entire show. Over the next 30-40 years Broadway Musicals would hit their highs and lows, but it was all too evident that the ...

Early French cinema provided the art of film with many innovations, among them creative usage of camera techniques that allowed the medium to set itself apart from theatre. In the case of two of the most prominent examples of this genre of film – Jean Renoir’s The Rules of the Game and Marcel Carne’s Children of Paradise – the camera is used in intensely creative ways to indicate everything from the subtle humor of class conflict to the brutal and tragic accidental murder of a human being. These films are particularly influential in the use of camera technique to advance ...

Cancer denotes an abnormal growth of cells, as a result of, changes in gene expressions following deregulated cell division and death (Ruddon, 2007). Consequently, this produces a population of cells that invade tissues and metastasizes to other sites, and if untreated, it causes significant morbidity and/or death of the affected person (Ruddon, 2007). In essence, cancer stems from alterations in the expression of certain genes; this phenomenon deregulates the cellular program for cell division and differentiation. In the long run, cell division, as well as cell death, become unregulated leading to the growth of tumor cells. The events that trigger ...

Reflection on the Creative Interpretation of the Scene and the Roles

Our group acted out the Act II, Scene IV and Act II, Scene V of the play “The Spanish Tragedy”, together in order to complete the assignment given to us. As a group we turned the play into a modern style scene using New York to make it closer to the modern lifestyle and to represent the gangster life there. Also because that is how we perceived the tone of the play would best be represented - where Bel Imperia is the beautiful, smart and educated lady princess, on the other hand her boyfriend, Horatio, is trash. I guess our perception ...

Breast cancer is a disease of epithelial cells that line the ducts of the breast. Malignancies of the breast are some of the most common cancers in women (aside from skin cancer) and are responsible for up to one-third of all cancers in women. Mortality because of the cancer is on the decline in the United States due to better detection and treatment. Breast cancer is a clonal disease, meaning that a single transformed cell that eventually expresses full malignant potential causes it. Therefore, it may exist for a long period before it becomes invasive and metastatic (Harrisons, 2008, p.563) The major ...

Approach to cancer care

Introduction Cancer is a group of diseases that are characterized by unregulated cellular growth. The uncontrolled cellular division leads to malignant tumors that invade and destroy surrounding organs and tissues. It may eventually spread to other far parts of the body from where it started through the bloodstream and the lymphatic system. Basically, there are three forms of cancer depending on the affected body parts: carcinomas (surface tissues such as the breast), sarcomas (soft tissue or bone) and lymphomas that affect the bone marrow or the lymph nodes (Pories, 2009). The disease accounts for 25% of total mortality annually ...

Abstract

A number of reports have been given that indicate that many individuals both children and adults alike are misdiagnosed with the lymphoma disease. Studies indicate that the patients are either diagnosed at a later stage of development of tumor cells or are diagnosed promptly.

In the previous chapter we have shown how the alienation pervades both of the plays thematically. The present chapter concerns with the stylistic devices which are used by Arthur Miller and Samuel Beckett to support the thematic preoccupation. Since we are concerned with the study of drama, we judge important to include an examination of the stagecraft; that is to say the technical aspects of the two plays. The most important point to insist on is that Death of a Salesman and Waiting for Godot belong to two different, if not opposed, theatrical movements - Realism and Absurdism, respectively. As a ...

Care giving for a patient living with dementia

Majority of patients suffering from dementia are cared for in community settings either by their spouse, children or significant others. Care giving has its merits and demerits on both the persons with dementia and on the caregivers. Whilst in some few cultures it is viewed in positive light and as something that brings satisfaction for the caregivers, care giving especially for the elderly is a strenuous responsibility and families which are involved in care giving feel this strain. Nevertheless, members who participate in giving care to those who are terminally ill must not let their burn out affect the quality ...

Dada is a style of theatre and performance that emphasizes chaos in lieu of order and civility. The irrational is king; Dadaists believe that colonialism and capitalism are the reasons that people go to war, using 'logic' and 'reason' to allow these terrible things to happen. With this in mind, Dadaist plays and playwrights sought to emphasize the silly, the abstract and the idiotic. This is indicative in several plays and works of the early 20th century, and Dadaist works that continue to this day. In this essay, we will examine the history of Dada, the ways in which it ...

The influence of both The Blues Brothers Band and the 1980 film of the same name have been enormous in musical and cultural ways, and this paper will explore that influence in depth. In a sense the band and the film have different and independent existences, and, therefore, it is hard to separate them and distinguish between the different incarnations of the Band: it is easier to think of The Blues Brothers as a musical and cultural phenomenon: The Blues Brothers continue to be a legend in the history of blues music, as well as the history of Hollywood. There are countless ...
