Our Commitment And Dress Of Revined Society Summary
Author, John H. Young, in his writing, “Our Deportment, or Manners, Conduct, and Dress of Revined Society,” magnifies proper etiquette for society. Young’s purpose is to inform husbands and wives about proper etiquette. He adopts an assertive tone in order to push forth the polite behavior he believes is “proper” in his adult readers. John H. Young makes his argument about the proper etiquette between wives and husbands by using diction, syntax, and tone.
Young’s inventive diction determines the proper etiquette wives and husbands must consider. For example to maintain the thought that the husband has more power he uses words such as “duty” and “took.” He is subconsciously making the audience agree with him by repeating the word “should” throughout

    The theme of social class is most apparent through the character of Arthur Birling, his ignorant and selfish personality has evidently been very much shaped by the money and success which he has attained through his role as the town mayor. However although Arthur Birling’s earlier life are not mentioned in the play it is evident to the audience that Mr.Birling is not a member of the higher class because of his family, but solely by his work and the money he has received. This is shown as Mr Birling finds himself being corrected by his wife, his social superior. When Mr Birling requests that the cook is to be thanked for the meal Mrs Birling almost immediately responds “Arthur, you’re not supposed to say such things”, the fact that Mr Birling has to be corrected by his wife about the way he acts and speaks almost mirrors the relationship between a mother and child as though Mrs Birling is teaching Mr Birling the correct way to act as a member of a higher class, magnifying the fact that Mr Birling evidently wasn’t taught these as a child again showing his true social standing.…

    How Society Conforms

    So you want to be known as one of the cool kids? The fact is, sometimes those cool kids arent really as cool as one may think. The quote, Our desire to conform is greater than our respect for objective facts, said by Margaret Drabble, is one that explains how the majority of society is under this pressure to be accepted. With all this pressure to belong, sometimes people lose who they really are just to fit in. In todays world people engage in certain activities that could really hurt them. Many people look over the real facts of the matter and their consequences and do things in the spare of the moment to become accepted and well like amongst a certain group of people. Its human nature to sometimes imitate what one sees. I strongly agree with the quote simply because I believe that more and more people everyday strives to be like other people instead of being themselves. People are conforming to be accepted more every day, and it is a growing problem in todays world.…

    Grolsch Global Strategy

    • 1520 Words
    • 7 Pages

    Grolsch, a company with a strong history and a highly rated product, has just been purchased by SABMiller. The company is evaluating its global strategy in light of the acquisition and determining how to position and sell its beer going forward. Grolsch has positioned itself well to compete internationally and has leveraged several tools (e.g. the MABA framework, strategic analysis) to effectively expand abroad. However, they must assess whether or not the MABA framework is still useful, what type of international strategy they should pursue (i.e. developed vs. developing markets), and if their adaptation strategies will continue to be an asset in their business development. The initial conclusion, detailed below, is that Grolsch should expand the MABA framework while also leveraging and recognizing the value of SABMiller’s distribution network. They need to maintain focus on international markets, looking at both developed and developing markets to diversify growth opportunities. Success for Grolsch depends on how well they can identify markets where their high-end, premium product will be desirable. But, it will also depend on their ability to adapt the brand image and marketing approach based on the cultural differences of the foreign markets they enter. The subsequent presentation contains exhibits and analysis that support and further develop these conclusions.…
