Three Words To Understand The Correct Interpretation
It is important to look at three words to understand the correct interpretation of the article. These three words are ‘punishment’, ‘sentence’ and ‘offence’. The first two words indicate towards the fact that the pardon by the President will save a person from the consequences of an offence and from a punishment as well. The manner in which the term ‘offence’ is used makes it quite evident that that the punishment and sentence we spoke about are in respect of the offence committed. This implies that the punishment which is supposed to be pardoned has to be in respect of an offence and not for any simple breach of a condition. The reasoning that is given for the above said statement is derived from the meaning of the word offence as it is given

    Chaucer's "Pardoner's Tale" and “the Pardoner’s Tale: a Row in Mississippi” Comparison

    The article is about the Mississippi governor, Haley Barbour, and his last-minute pardoning. He didn't use his right to pardon at all during in his first term, or most of his second term. However, during his last few months in office, he pardoned over 200 people, most who had been in jail for violent charges. This put the state of Miss. on the defensive. The Attorney General stopped most of the pardons, stating that most to none of them announced 30 days ahead of their intent to get a pardon. The state legislature also planned on passing a bill limiting the governor’s clemency rights. Barbour defended himself, stating that most had finished their sentence, and he only went with the recommendation of the parole board. Usually, pardons wouldn’t get people up into arms. However, most pardons go to people convicted of MINOR crimes, not major offenses like murder, or commuting major sentences. Governors, and even recent presidents, have been wary of using their clemency powers in fear of doing the wrong thing, and starting a controversy.…

    Summary Of What We Mean When We Say

    In “What We Mean When We Say ‘Race Is a Social Construct’,” Ta-Nehisi Coates alleges that the concept of race is a fake ideal used to drive people apart. To begin, Coates asks the question, “What is race?” , then goes on to state that race has no coherent definition. He poses the counterpoint that race gives identity; however, Coates rebuts this point by stating “Our notion of what constitutes ‘white’ and what constitutes ‘black’ is a product of social context.” (Coates, p. 5).…

    Frank Lucas Psyc Study

    So in the movie “American Gangster” memory played a very important role to the character Frank Lucas. One memory that he refers to is when he was 5 years old and his 12-year-old cousin got pulled out of the house and tied up to a tree in North Carolina by the police. They then shoved a shotgun in his cousin’s mouth hard enough to break 2 teeth, and then the police shot him in the head. I think this memory was a very strong start to his distrust and disdain towards the police. Another memory of his was a good memory. To please his mother he had her room recreated from his memory from when he was 5. In so much detail as to have furniture special made to exact details including drapes and blankets and design. Obviously this was a strong enough memory that he could recall all the details. He also used memory in his business practices. He remembered who still owed money to Bumpy his now deceased boss…

    Evaluating an interpretation of literature

    The text ‘A Most Lamentable Man’ written by Christine Marlowe is an interpretation of Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet which portrays arguments about Friar Laurence, indicating that he was to blame for the tragic ending to the play. Marlowe Claims "Throughout the plot, it is the actions of Friar Laurence, and he alone that are most significant in ensuring the final tragedy of the play." The statement proves that she believes the Friar to be the influence or the main reason the star crossed lovers die whereas in Shakespeare's original version he made the Friar a caring man that just wants to help the young couple and marry them in the unlikely event that the two feuding families make amends. "But come, young waverer, come, go with me, in one respect I’ll thy assistant be, for this alliance may so happy prove, to turn your households' rancor to pure love." (2.3.90) Laurence’s poorly executed plan to fake Juliet’s death was one of his main faults Marlowe indicates “Out of all Laurence’s blunders, however, his calculated plan for Juliet to take on the appearance of, ‘A thing like death …’ (4.1.76) is surely his greatest error.” although Marlowe doesn’t end there, she includes his failure to get the all-important letter delivered to Romeo and his slackness in helping prevent Romeo’s death, “Laurence did not emphasise the importance of the letter he had instructed Friar John to deliver to Romeo.”…

    Why Does the Pardoner Admit That He Is a Fraud?

    Why Does the Pardoner Admit That He Is a Fraud?

    To gain this authority amongst the crowd of people, the Pardoner creates an emotional and moral appeal. In his tale, the Pardoner shares his own experiences by saying how he too was once gluttonous. He shares the negative aspects of gambling and explicates how wrong it was of him to have such an addiction. By allowing the crowd to have knowledge of his dark past, the Pardoner has made himself vulnerable. In doing so he gains respect of the people because they feel commiseration for him. This way of acquiring social acceptance establishes a psychological framework because people generally respect honesty. In the prologue, we have an account of the Pardoner who is conscious of his outward appearance. The Pardoner is so concerned about what people think of him and he wants to be accepted amid society. It makes sense that the Pardoner would confess his fraudulence and deceitfulness in order for people to feel sympathy for him.…

    Forgiveness By June Callwood Analysis

    Some people may say that all wrongdoers do not deserve a pardon and must be punished immediately. While others may say it depends on the weight of the wrong doing; simple mistakes are tolerable, but serious crimes are unforgivable. However, some people will mention the cliché, “forgive and forget” (saying). Whoever created this saying has to explain the meaning of it because the logic is unclear. Did the saying’s author use the word “forget” because it rhymes with the word “forgive”, or because people need to literally forget the crime that others did to them? It sounds impossible because the human brain does not have a delete memory feature. Maybe the saying has a deeper meaning. Many people in the World Wide Web are arguing about it because…

    Identity In The Pardoner's Tale

    The Pardoner is a man who works for the congregation and diminishes individuals from their transgressions. He conveys since a long time ago, moved up composed archives that are (presumably) composed by the Pope and offers them to individuals that have did/done/performed socially wrong acts. In spite of the fact that the Pardoner knows he himself is doing/performing socially wrong acts, he has no goal to change himself. His story demonstrates the untruthfulness of the congregation and how the (ministers, priests, elders, and so forth.) were situated in the medieval times. At last, the Pardoner still tries to make a…

    Mill False Expression

    Never, however, is an expression itself harm-causing, according to Mill. It is the context in which something is expressed. This brings us to Mill's distinction between offensive and harm-causing expression. For Mill, an offence merely displeases us whereas a harm-causing expression is something that would injure the rights of someone else. Harm-causing expression will threaten effected individuals' ability to pursue what they believe is the best way of life, which is why Mill justifies interference with such acts of expression.…

    Confusing Truth

    Before the advent of digital imaging, we rely on paintings and books to record for documentary use. While paintings and books suggest the clear separation of what is truth and what is falsehood, people believe that camera is trustworthy and photos taken from it are the truth because camera is a machine with no emotions. Digital imaging gives better quality images to readers. However, due to the potential of digital photography manipulation, it has clarified that truth is not fixed anymore but has fluidity. There is no absolute truth.…
