Why Russia granted the asylum and why Snowden is even there can be tied to three basic concepts of intercultural communication‚ those of culture & social group‚ perspective‚ and cultural relativism. Edward Snowden was a “security contractor at the NSA for the last four year‚ employed by several private

The death penalty has been a criminal sentence imposed in America for hundreds of years‚ but it have been extremely controversial as Evan Mandery illustrates in “A Wild Justice: The Death and Resurrection of Capital Punishment in America.” Today‚ the death sentence is strictly used in murder cases and in thirty-two out of the fifty states in America.

The British novelist and egyptologist Amelia Edwards once said‚ “Were I asked to define it‚ I should reply that archeology is that science which enables us to register and classify our knowledge of the sum of man’s achievements in those arts and handicrafts whereby he has‚ in time past‚ signalized his passage from barbarism to civilization.” To put that in simpler words‚ Amelia means to say that archeology is the study and understandings of our past ancestors‚ who have grown to modern civilizations

In this painting “Nighthawks”‚ by Edward Hopper‚ there is 4 people‚ 3 men and a woman. It looks like there is one man alone and a couple.

While visiting family in Boston for the weekend‚ I returned to the Museum of Fine Arts. I came upon another of John Singer Sargent’s works‚ Daughters of Edward Darley Boit.

Three of the girls appear to be staring blankly at the painter‚ while one stands facing to the side

Wilson satirizes the language of the two groups‚ and how unproductive their discussions are‚ through the use of hyperboles‚ insulting and stereotypical diction‚ and a created sense of situational irony. Wilson’s hyperboles exemplify how little is
