Western society (and to a lesser extent near-Eastern society as well) has felt the impact of the Classical world for thousands of years. The philosophy and political processes have all made their mark in one way or another, but it is the impact which Classical mythology has had on the world at large which is most well-known (or is at least more visible). From the use of classical imagery in famous paintings and sculptures, to the slightly less salubrious twisting of Greek fertility Gods into representations of Evil, classical mythology and imagery has saturated our culture from almost the ...

Raced Body in Design and Visual Culture

Since the dawn of our civilization, people have been trying to identify themselves and the purpose of their existence.

Such a process is impossible without applying a list of criteria, which make people somehow connected, either by same origins or territory. However, if there is such a process as unity, there should somewhere be a concept of separation. Derived from the human wish to dominate over others, racism and other kinds of discrimination occurred. ...

Males of Asian descent have got an unpleasant rap in mainstream movies from all over the world. If they do not get depicted as a type of caricature, then they will often be stereotypes that they are humble as well as unassuming, the kind of people who will stick around somewhere in the background.
