The Texas education system raised concern since the declaration of independence in 1836 following the failure of the government to begin the public education system. However, in late 1983, a constitutional amendment that advocated for the provision of bonds by the school fund was passed through voting. Currently, school funds generated an income of approximately $756 million dollars thus, making education facilities more available to the students (Champagne and Edward 16). The dropout rate is the indicator of the holding power of various schools in Texas during that period. Data indicates that 106 counties recorded a reduction in the ...

e The definition of the word “canon” was developed as a description for books that are divinely inspired and belong in the Holy Bible. The Bible was written by nearly 40 different writers over the length of 1500 years, which was why there was a considerable amount of difficulty in determining what was Biblical canon. What made it difficult was that the Bible did not explicitly state which books belonged in the holy text. Jewish rabbis and scholars were the first to conduct a process to determine the canon, which was later continued by the early Christians. Ultimately, God ...

Washington Street, penned by Henry James, is a work of realist fiction, which takes on the cliché plot line of a traditional romance. In essence, a plain, naive, and inherently good young woman is pursued by an older man with ulterior motives. From within this traditional plot structure, James explores the nature of relationships, with a particular interest in marriage. Overall, he presents marriage as a troupe established for social purposes and essentially forming a simplistic social contract, with romance removed, or ruined by the interplay of social demands and questionable motives. This can be directly contrasted with the ...

The Mendelsohn elements, in theory, include portal quest, immersive, intrusion and liminal that helps in classifying the antagonists in the ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘The Midsummer Night's Dream.'

Systems of writing have been cited as one of the earliest and greatest inventions of human beings. Kanji is a broad term used to refer to logographic characters widely used in the Japanese writing system.

Introduction In his May 24, 1963, speech at the inauguration of the OAU Conference in Addis Ababa Ethiopia, doctor Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana’s first President, gave a stirring speech with a clarion call “we must unite now or perish.” In his speech, he advocated for a strong Union of Independent African States to form one block of states. Nkrumah was convinced that it was only through unity that African states which were getting themselves slowly off the colonial hook would achieve development or progress. According to him, with such a unity, the continent would be able to stand up ...

The Christian Bible and Islamic Quran chare a surprising number of similar themes and ideas as a result of their shared religious heritage and birthplaces; an example of this is found in the Bible’s “Sermon on the Mount” parable from the Mathew Gospel and the Quran’s “Lord of Mercy”. It is important to note that the Lord of Mercy referenced by the Koran can include a number of passages, as Allah is directly references as the Lord of Mercy many times; unless specified otherwise, this report will refer primarily to the opening of the Koran for simplicity. ...

Modern society is known for its advancements in technology and for being a 24/7 environment, but how does this impact parenting? Parenting is both a joyful and at times a difficult task. Parents throughout the centuries have struggled with issues specific to their time, and the 21st century is no different. The rise of social media, globalization, and changing demographics are unique to our age.

They are tested earlier and ...

The Culture of Fashion

With special attention to decadism, Breward overviews the changes in fashion trends in the beginning of the twentieth century (184-185). Here, decades are characterized not only by specific preferences in clothing, but also by cultural and social features of the time. In other words, fashion is determined by sociocultural movements. The author highlights the importance of fashion’s temporality in organizing the chronology of the history of fashion. Particularly with this art, time frames may be easily outlined by months, years, or decades with high degree of accuracy. Therefore, fashion is described as a “cultural clock”, which is unconnected ...

Buddhism, like all the other Eastern religions, originated from “Animism”, which is the belief that everything in the universe has an essence, a spirit or a soul. As a way of life, it is similar to the other religions in promoting morality, generosity, kindness, harmony, and respect for all living beings including mother nature. Alike Hinduism, Buddhism believes in the following: 1. Reincarnation, wherein the soul is reborn into another body based on the level of spiritual attainment from the previous life. 2. Karma, which is either the positive or the negative effects of an individual’s actions. 3. ...

It is difficult to make someone believe in something unprecedented, but the church was able to do it. It is difficult to keep the influx of non-believers, but the church was always doing so until the freedom of speech and thought, of course. Many simply believe, without even thinking about religion as such. Religion is a kind of reunion of the broken relationship with God, or lifestyle based on a belief in the supernatural power. Religious ideas, rules, basics are described in the sacred books, which allegedly have been dictated by God. Of course, no one can currently prove ...

Reading is a process through which the reader tries to gain knowledge by deriving meaning from printed or written texts. During reading, the reader tries to retrieve information and understand the meaning of the text. This is called readability. For casual readers, the effort that goes into retrieving information and understanding meaning is lesser than an intense reader. Having a prior knowledge of a subject, or its structure, makes readability easier. When information is provided on a new subject in a way that is difficult to understand, the readability becomes hard. During the process of reading, the person connects ...

The three digital texts are also similar in that; they are all dedicated to audiences with similar characteristics. For instance, the literary content of the texts is only completely accessible online, and may not serve its initial intended purpose if read as plain text. In addition, the audience to whom the texts are meant for, are also expected to possess some kind of computer literacy by for instance understanding the behaviour of hyperlinked texts like those featured in ‘Twelve Blue’, or an understanding of the need for visual speed and close attention while encoding the intended message from the ...

William Blake’s Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience were written in the 18th century. Blake used parallel versions of his poems to construct an ideal form of human existence which he later compared against the contemporary society. His works, which were sometimes considered deeply spiritual, caused some of his critics to dismiss him as a Lunatic and his work as the rantings of a lunatic. Blake was also an artist and his images accompanied most of his poems. Blake used parallel poems to respond to the decay in the human values in the society (Vines 116). Many ...

We might not think of it as a problem, but how many times a day do you take your phone to text your friend? Texting can be easily turned from a habit into an addiction without noticing. In “The Joy of Texting”, Lynne Truss states that texting is a “sneaky form of communication”, and it can both simplify and complicate your life. It seems to be more popular among the youth and more preferable than conversations on the phone and, perhaps, even engaging in a face-to-face conversation. Texting is able to make communication much easier among users, because it ...

Thesis Statement

A thesis statement sample can be considered good if it presents the three pillars of a sound thesis statement. Sharp (17) asserts that through a thesis statement, a writer answers a question that they are willing to raise. Thus presentation of a topic details the first aspect of a good thesis statement. A sound thesis statement brings out the writer’s ability to engage in the ideas of another person through the topic. Demonstrations, arguments, criticism are some of the aspects eminent in topics of sound thesis statements. After the topic, a writer presents the position they would wish ...

Art has traditionally been used to act as a means through which various messages are conveyed. The ability of an artist is often gauged through the capacity to communicate a given message effectively through his/her piece of art. Architecture is no different, with architectural work being used to send messages of their own. Gandelsonas and Eisenman make an attempt to explain how architects can broaden the scope of architectural work from emphasizing on functionality and aesthetics to being a medium of communication. According to Eisenman, the intersection of semiotics and architecture comes with the effort of finding a balance ...

Abstract

Introduction The history of Europe indicates that communication in the region was only limited to certain route maps. The route maps were drawn to connect different stations with orders being sent out with messages. Although in some cases the message was written covering sensitive issues, the messages were dictated to the messenger and repeated to the receiver. This system was highly inconvenient since the individuals were often pushed into placing their trust on an individual and the telegraph came to end this (Carey 12). Distortion of the messages often led to the need for repetition or affected how well ...

For several years now, researchers have realised many differences that exist between the oral and written cultures (Ong 12). Some people may prefer orality over literacy and vice versa not knowing that all these goes hand in hand. It all started by oral literature when the information was passed from one generation to another without documenting them but through the elders. The old generation believed in the oral literature since the information were safely and faithfully transmitted to the next generation without any distortion (Ong 15). The written literature, on the other hand, is believed to have emerged during ...

Analysis and synthesis

There are four summaries of articles that have been read by other people. While we do not get to read the articles themselves, we get brief ideas of what the subject was. We also get the impression of people who read it and understand whether they agreed or disagreed with the initial articles. The structure of the essays look similar, however they cover completely different subjects, which however eventually show that they in common more than just a presentation.

The very first summary of an essay talks about how young children in kindergartens are taught foreign languages. The article ...

Homosexuality is the sexual attraction or behavior between individuals of the same sex. Religion and sexual identity are cultural aspects that have continued to clash in the society for a long time. The issue of homosexuality, to be precise, has brought mixed feelings in Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. Each faith has strong perceptions on sexuality which shapes how people perceive homosexuality in their society. Religion reacts to homosexuality in three ways that include rejection, acceptance and the 'love the sinner hate the sinner' approach. The views of the three religions on homosexuality have continued to change over the years, ...

Aesthetics refers to the philosophical comprehension of taste and beauty, especially in relation to the perception and interpretation of appearance. In most instances, people look critically at the appearance of others to judge them, and it affects more than the persons in question. Since time immemorial, women have always put their best feet forward to look beautiful and achieve somehow a “perfect look”. All the same, the concept of beauty has always been misconstrued and many times people tend to look at the outward appearance of clothing, and physical appearance to rate the beauty of a person rather than ...

Introduction

Texas has had a colorful history since the beginning of time. It then became a nation, and then a state. Traditional history writers have often taken the path of romanticizing the events in history and rationalizing on why they had to occur. Oftentimes, the premise was always the proclamation of the superiority of the Anglo-American over the Native American and Mexican occupants of the land. Modern historians like Fehrenbach, Crisp and others have endeavored to write history in the context of how the events really happened, coming to their own conclusions as to how these events occurred, and avoiding ...

Nature is an important element in many of the early texts. Both Beowulf and Canterbury Tales, written in very early English, use and personify Nature. It can be useful, therefore, to discuss the persona and action of nature in both texts, in an exploration of the use of nature in early fiction. This paper will, therefore, compare and contrast nature in the works of Beowulf and Canterbury Tales. The imagery in the opening prologue of the Canterbury Tales is expressly related to nature. It describes the rebirth of spring, but the verbiage, specifically, that is used by Chaucer to ...

The estimated date of the Annals is around 166 AD. The personages and events described in the Annals include Caligula, Claudius, Tiberius Nero, and Messalina. While Tacitus was writing from the perspective of an elitist and a scholar, it is evident ...

Throughout time, people have asked themselves what it means to be human. This has the obvious correlate of how one should lead one’s life. If it does not have intrinsic meaning, as many people started to believe in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, then one is left to one’s own devices to make something out of it. Artists have depicted this in many ways; Henry James’ The Beast in the Jungle and Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot are two masterpieces that discuss the importance of making the most of one’s time on Earth. They ...

And their purpose, key verse(s), themes, objectives, context.

And their purpose, key verse(s), themes, objectives, context. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are the Four Christian Evangelists  and the authors of the four Gospels in the New Testament. The gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke are defined as the Synoptic Gospels, as they include many identical stories, sometimes even in the same progression. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are called evangelists, people who announce good news, as their books are to tell people the "good news" ("gospel") of Jesus Christ.

The issue is whether the student based teacher evaluation is gender biased. Gender bias is a common social vice that is described as the subjective perception that some people are better positioned to perform some task based on their masculinity of their femininity. For instance, most societies hold that boys or men are better at academics, rationality and in most cases possess socially unruly behavior while their female counterparts are socially interactive, more disciplined and better in arts and languages (Templeton, 2016). With such gender-based bias ingrained in the society, the fundamental question is whether students are affected by ...

An analysis of the problems associated with the word "Troll" require a study of the words etymology in relation to its origin and the way in which it has evolved and developed throughout the years. An analysis of the research available on the etymology of the word suggests Scandinavian origins that can be traced deep into the Scandinavian folklores.

However, trolls do differ in their nature from the various countries, meaning ...

The opium war which took place in the 19th century was one of the first major defeats of the Chinese government. China had a tremendous amount of wealth which was mostly attributed to the tea trade in the country. Britain had a great demand for this tea, while the country had nothing to offer the Chinese government in return. China was also ignorant to the western revolution and considered the western culture barbaric. China was a traditional country which held strongly to its traditions and culture. While China hoped to keep its culture free of the western culture effect, ...

Undoubtedly, Joseph Conrad's creativity can be considered unique and quite rare. This rarity and uniqueness are due to the very origin of the author, whose real name was Józef Korzeniowski (Kolocotroni 154). This had a very difficult and long way to go before he gained experience in understanding the world, people, and society. Not being a native English speaker, Conrad wrote the short story Heart of Darkness, which perpetuated his name in the history of the world literature. This novella affects a number of problems of a different nature and direction. The most predominant of such problems became ...

Identifying the main problematics of the word "troll requires recalling its etymology, i.e. the very first time when it was used and its transformation over the centuries. An accurate analysis of the specific sources suggests that this word is quite ancient, multi-valued, and most notably, very contradictory. The word has Scandinavian roots and its etymology goes deep into folklore. The word "troll" has a direct relationship with nature because trolls, as mythological creatures, represent nature. On this basis, one can say that trolls from Denmark differ from trolls in Sweden, Norway, and Iceland. Despite the fact that the geographical ...

There is no doubt that there have been several women writers who have not been awarded a justified position in the so-called “canon” of English literature. There are names such as Margery Kempe, Marie de France, Lady Jane Grey, Mary (Sidney) Herbert, Mary Queen of Scotts, Aemilia Lanyer, Elizabeth Cary, Mary Wroth, Katherine Philips, Margaret Cavendish, and many more who challenge an equivalent share of fame, with the labors of their classical male contemporaries because of their prestigious works. The prime focus of the paper is to discuss Margaret Cavendish, a writer from the 17th century and presents a ...

According to Jan Assmann, culture reflects the forms of thought, mentality, and spiritual activities of individuals and groups in the arts, symbols, rituals, language, and forms of organization of life and forms a universal field of the interaction of mindset, practices, and social institutions (Erll & Nünning, 2010, pp. 109-110). Therefore, cultural memory can be understood as a form of translation and updating of the cultural meanings. At the same time, it is an umbrella term for all the "knowledge" that controls emotions, actions, and practices throughout the life of people in the framework of communication and interaction in ...

A General Framework I have always been interested in the role of women in different regions of the world, especially in the Middle East and Asian regions. I was always fascinated by the ways in which women were treated in these parts of the world. This is because women have been known to be discriminated against. This discrimination is seen when women are placed in servile positions rather than in positions of authority. I have always wondered what was the prevailing mindset that governed the way women were treated in these parts of the world. ...

The differences between the Christianity and Judaism lie in the differences of understanding, evaluation and apprehension of the Old Testament and the New Testament. To understand what happens then, we must first take into account the fact that, originally, the nascent Christian movement is fully Jewish. Jesus himself is Jewish. His disciples were Jewish. And all the great figures of the first Christian generation, Jacques, Peter, and Paul, to name a few, are Jews. Thus, the Christian movement was born and began to grow within Judaism. However, that Judaism was soon through a terrible crisis, caused by the destruction ...

Matriculation Number Study Programme The Great Vowel Shift in the English Language is one of the most important events in the evolution of modern English phonetics and pronunciation. It occurred towards the end of the Middle Ages and carried on into the English Renaissance, culminating in the seventeenth century when vowel usage was more or less consolidated. The event was likely caused due to a complex combination of socio-economic factors as well as cultural and technological change, but its effects are of more immediate concern.

Immigration is one of the most complicated aspects of the human experience. Even though they may share species, people around the world are very different, with each culture housing its own world.

Many people soon see that the American Dream is really an illusion and that they must constantly fight to keep themselves afloat. There may be many similarities between how people react to this change ...
