The writer begins Silence by calling himself Master Heldris of Cornwall and saying his wish not to have his work spread among wealthy people who don’t know how to appreciate it. He refers to them as “the kind of people”, which clearly shows his negative attitude toward those who he describes as “prize money more than honor”, or “want to hear everything but do not care to make a man happy with some reward they might wish to give". The phrase “at the beginning of the work”, or “before I begin to tell my story” are repeated three times throughout the opening: one at the start, one at the center, and one at the end right before the writer starts telling the story. This, together with strong words such as “command”, “request”, repeatedly reminds the readers of the writer’s demand to preserve his work and of his deep hatred toward greedy people.…
consummated, for me to feel less alone, I had only to wish that there be a large crowd of spectators the day of my execution and that they greet me with cries of hate." (Camus 122-3). He felt as if he was ready to live again just like Maman before she had passed away. Meursault is an absurd hero at the end because he accepted death, passing the Absurd Walls and into the absurd freedom, where one can experience life to the fullest.…

What does the word perfect mean? Well, according to the Webster Dictionary, it means “being entirely without fault or defect” and/or “corresponding to an ideal standard or abstract concept.” Many people strive to be perfect. Whether it is the perfect hair, the perfect group of friends, or the perfect body; people strive for a perfect life. But is a perfect life an achievable thing? Everyone has a different idea of perfection, therefore; it is impossible to find one that we can all agree on. But the media sure does give everyone an idea of what perfection really looks like. Women must be skinny with smooth skin and men have to be muscular with great hair. “These cultural messages feed the deepest insecurity in ourselves and encourage us to…
“Heartland” written by Linda Hogan has underlying messages a reader must carefully pay attention to in order to fully understand the poem. Hogan describes “City Poems” as her analysis of city life and how she appreciates it which can seem complex when reading her poem. She begins the poem describing how rare silence in the city can appear to people, constant traffic from vehicles and voices of people traveling the streets. Then she understands what the “city poems” other authors write about and how life in the city is constantly surrounded with common images related to city life such as yellow hard hats and beggars. I feel like Hogan feels a connection with city life and she has learned to appreciate it.…
The Confessions, written by St. Augustine, have a large part of theology in today’s world because of the great deal of contemplation and conversion that Augustine experiences throughout his lifetime. While these are both true, there are major flaws in Augustine’s understanding of God due to a multitude of reasons. Augustine even makes this claim in his own writings, stating that he continues to have a restless heart even after the book was written. Because he believes that God is greatly superior in which humans cannot begin to understand Him because of our great inferiority, Augustine fails to develop his own personal relationship with God because he sees too much of a distance between himself and God, explaining why he continues to have…
Has time changed over several years or do we still think the same? Are imperfections worse on the physical being of a person or the inner soul? Physical attributes were as much important hundreds of years as now. Becoming obsessed and uncomfortable with the way one looks has given scientist a way to mold perfection. Is it worse changing to please ourselves because we need to or doing it to please our significant other because he has become so consumed with perfection, vanity and defects? How is it that one criticizes others small imperfections and not notice how they themselves look and how "the hand of nature" has not been so generous to them either. Inner beauty, is not seen but felt; perfection is not the same…
“The word perfect is one of the keywords of the Epistle. It occurs thirteen times.”2 The book of Hebrews speaks of Jesus, the Son of God, not only as perfect, but as needing and achieving perfection. “For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.”3 The Savior of the world was made perfect for His imperfect creation.…
When Plato and other prominent philosophers such as Plutarch and Heraclitus were observing the world, they came to the conclusion that it was in a state of flux; they came to the conclusion that it was constantly changing. Plato wrote a number of texts including Phaedo and Republic; this worked with his dualistic approach concluding that our realm of appearances – or our world; and all within is changeable and will eventually cease to exist. He says that this world is nothing but a mere copy of forms, and the forms are described as the eternal and perfect idea of what a thing is. The world of the forms, to Plato is the only realm where true knowledge lies, Plato defined this as the realm of reality; this could in fact be trusted unlike our own world. There are a few reasons to Plato as to why The Forms exist, and these reasons are present through his work for example through The Theory of Recollection, and The Imperfection Argument. But several philosophers have critiqued Plato’s notion and they argued Plato’s arguments are actually just reasons for why forms should exist; rather than actual proof of the existence. Furthermore, The Third Man Argument in Plato’s ‘Parmenides’ brings a prominent problem for the theory of The Forms. For example, Russell called it ‘One…
