In his introduction‚ Arthur Kinney explains the background behind the play and why the play‚ Dr. Faustus was created. Kinney observes that Christopher Marlowe wrote the ideal Renaissance drama. Dr. Faustus challenges exactly what Elizabethan society stands for. The play probes two of its key factors‚ the church and the university. This is due to the fact that the play questions faith and education. Also because Mephastophilis debates with the Old Man about Christian values such as compliance‚ modesty

understanding regarding the communication of the brain’s hemispheres. Through their research we have learned many things about human brain function. The experiment involved removing the cause of epilepsy in severely affected individuals by severing the corpus callosum nerve fibers thereby separating left hemisphere from right. Many of the daily motions we take for granted using a whole brain would be altered and distorted when the right brain cannot contact the left brain. Some medical professionals entertained

responsible for the communication between both hemispheres in the form of large groups of axons‚ known as the corpus callosum‚ the anterior commissure‚ the posterior commissure and the hippocampal commissure (Barnes‚ 2013). The corpus callosum is a collection of myelin coated axons that connects the two hemispheres together. People who have undergone surgery to sever the corpus callosum to reduce the amount of epileptic seizures they have are referred to as ‘split-brain patients’ (Comer‚ Gold &

The corpus callosum can act either as a dam or a bridge between the two hemispheres in the brain. The bridge action of the corpus callosum is most important in actions that require both hemispheres. When the motor skills of one hemisphere is needed‚ the corpus callosum then acts as a dam to concentrate on only one side of the brain. But as we age the dam effect begins to breakdown and

4.1: The healthy and damaged brain The brain has three main parts the Cerebrum‚ the Cerebellum and the brain stem. The brain is divided into regions that each control different functions. The Cerebrum: The Cerebrum is the biggest part of the brain it makes up around 85% of the brains weight this is because it is the thinking part of your brain and it also controls the voluntary muscles. So without your Cerebrum then daily activities such as dancing or kicking a ball wouldn’t be possible. The cerebral
