Structure is needed for a society to thrive. Without it‚ people would do anything they pleased‚ with little consideration or concern for others. Structure‚ usually in the form of laws created by a person of power‚ is what keeps a group of people together‚ and allows for peaceful order between these individuals.

Socrates is the philosopher that created the dialectic method‚ which is figuring out what the main thing of knowledge is. Not only that but the honesty‚ righteousness‚ and the attribute of a good character; another form of discovery. The dialectic method was intended to figure out what is knowledge‚ why it is so important‚ and the accurate definition of it. Knowledge is known for being a strong belief‚ if that’s the case then a cat should typically know that it is a cat. Knowledge is actually a true

This summer I decided to read one book and two poems (one classical and one contemporary) from Austria. The classical poem I read was De Profundis‚ by Georg Trakl. This poem is about death‚ and specifically a disease. However‚ is not only about death but about his death. He shows it to us by saying: "Spiders look for my heart". A poem that is very different from this one‚ is the poem The Black Death‚ by Matthew Henning. Both poems talk about death and a disease‚ however‚ there is a very big difference

An Application of Relational Dialectics Leslie Baxter and Barbara Montgomery are interested in the communication that occurs in close relationships. I am going to focus on the three relational dialects which consist of connectedness-separateness‚ certainty-uncertainty‚ and openness-closedness. These three dialects are central to Baxter’s and Montgomery’s theory but they want to go more in depth than previous theorists have on these specific dialects. I will discuss this theory in the context

In this essay I am going to analyse of Adorno and Horkheimer ’s Dialectic of Enlightenment‚ I will use various texts and ideas including George Orwell ’s 1984 and Weber ’s theory of Disenchantment‚ to criticise the extract and outline the relationship between film/literary representation and the real world.

Relational Dialectics was originally proposed by Leslie A. Baxter and W.K. Rawlins but Leslie edited the theory with Barbara M. Montgomery. It is an interpersonal communication theory about close personal ties and relationships that highlights the tensions‚ struggles‚ and interaction between opposing tendencies (Baxter and Montgomery‚ 1998). Baxter and Montgomery elaborated on Mikhail Bakhtin’s idea that life is an open monologue and that individuals experience discourse between opposing desires
