This week I had the good fortune of viewing one of the greatest films of the late 1970s‚ the 1979 film Manhattan‚ directed by Woody Allen. A film I would consider to be one of his greatest works. The film takes place in‚ obviously‚ New York‚ especially on the island of Manhattan. While most people would say this is merely the setting of the film‚ a more astute film viewer would realize that the story of film is a reflection of the city itself‚ a romantic city of light and darkness. If you are

After careful analysis of the readings of the writings of Edward Byrn and H.G. Wells‚ I have found a common ground in terms of religion where both the authors‚ I believe‚ have the same notion. With no intention of discarding the importance of religion in how our world has progressed‚ I would argue that religion has been holding us back from our full potential in terms of science and technological innovation and practice of free will. It has been a settled belief that God created the world and everything

an Students‚ Teachers‚ and Edward Said: Taking Stock of Orientalism Since the publication of Orientalism in 1978‚ Edward Said’s critique has become the hegemonic discourse of Middle Eastern studies in the academy. While Middle Eastern studies can improve‚ and some part of Said’s criticism is valid‚ it is apparent that the Orientalism critique has done more harm than good. Although Said accuses the West and Western researchers of "essentializing" Islam‚ he himself commits a similar sin when he writes
