Before I define the word popular culture‚ I would like to breakdown both word. The word popular means liked‚ admired or enjoyed by many people or a particular person or group. As for the word culture means the arts and others manifestations of human intellectual achievements regarding collectively. Now to give my personal definition of the meaning “popular culture” would go like this. Many things that are liked and praised upon in the culture/generation that we currently live in.

There’s the Rub Toxic By Conrado de Quiros Philippine Daily Inquirer 12:20 am | Monday‚ November 26th‚ 2012 I’m glad Miriam Defensor-Santiago and Walden Bello have introduced resolutions calling for the scrapping of the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) in the wake of Glenn Defense Marine Asia’s dumping of toxic waste on the waters of Subic Bay. It’s way past due. On the face of it‚ the connection between the two is merely tangential. After being accused of dumping untreated waste on the waters

‘Social class is still the main determinant of voting behaviour.’ Discuss. In some ways‚ this statement is correct‚ however‚ as society is evolving this is becoming less and less apparent. The change in voting behaviour based on classes started to change between 1945 and the 1980s‚ where the class de-alignment occurred. This was the decline in the relationship between social class and voting. After World War II‚ the distinctions between the classes became less important as the country had fought

Catwoman There have been many versions of Catwoman’s origin over the years but details of her possible storyline suggested that Selina Kyle was born to Brian and Maria Kyle in the slums of Gotham City. Her mother was never close to Selina or her sister Maggie and would often rather spend time with her cats then her children.

Batman: the Dark Knight Batman‚ the Dark Knight is full of underlying philosophy on society and life in many ways; I will focus on three of them: good versus evil‚ order versus chaos‚ and the theme of corruption. This film masterfully portrays a philosophic insight into selfish human behavior as a whole in society‚ while also giving an alternative perspective on the evil that lies in people just under a thin veneer of good ethics. The Dark Knight marvellously explores how very close to each

What is the significance of being a hero? In Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns‚ I would like to address the theme of rebirth and its relevance to Batman. Batman’s rebirth can be seen through‚ his physical changes‚ superhero power struggle‚ and his death. Batman’s rebirth is witnessed by his initial physical changes. For example‚ Alfred points out‚ “Master Bruce. Whatever happened to your moustache” (20‚ 7).This physical change is what hints at a different stage or “rebirth” in Bruce Wayne

The chronicles of Batman and The Joker continue to evolve in complexity for every generation. They are the ultimate good vs. evil who are equally as different as they are similar. Many will argue that they will continue the game they play infinitely‚ due to the rules they follow. Neither can exist without the other for there would be no arch nemesis for Batman to oppose. These two men are psychotic as well as brilliant which constantly creates a dilemma between the both of them. While Batman is spending
