This idea is partially confirmed in the texts I have studied: Immigrant Chronicle by Peter Skrynecki‚ and the novel Fiddler on the Roof by Norman Jewison. These three texts demonstrate that an individual can make difficult choices to not belong as well as belong depending on what they want. As mentioned above‚ making difficult choices can also make a person not to belong. This concept is aptly demonstrated in Peter Skrynecki’s poem ‘Postcard’. In this poem‚ Skrzynecki shows his decisions using a number

One piece from the Legion of Honor that really stuck out to me was‚ “St. Peter Healing the Lame”. Completed in 1667 by the artist Gerbrand Van Den Eeckhout‚ the piece’s medium is oil on wood. the use of very dark colors along with the very contrasting light colors that make up the people make this piece catch my eye and i really feel like it brings a cool mood to the artwork. Gerbrand Van Den Eeckhout is referred to as a golden age painter and was a student of Rembrandt along with others such as

In my opinion‚ there is a lot of conflict between Paul and Peter disagreeing about seemingly small things even though they had disagreements. After reading Acts-15 it stated that they are able to work with each other again. I think they had a disagreement‚ but it is hard to say they contradicted one another. A letter to the Church in Galatia suggest that Paul had a serious disagreement with Peter and the argument started as Peter felt that Christianity was a new form of Judaism‚ and if you converted

Peter Singer enters a new section‚ entitled “Motivation and Justification”. Starting with chapter 7‚ he looks deep into the minds of altruists to figure out why they chose this type of lifestyle. What motivates these people to do so much for the sake of others (Singer‚ 2015‚ p.75)? The immediate answer Singer first throws out is love‚ but he later refutes it and proposes empathy as the prime motivation. Empathy refers to “the ability to understand and share the feelings of others” (dictionary source)

In Peter Singer’s “Famine‚ Affluence‚ and Morality‚” he argues that when people abroad are suffering or dying from lack of food‚ shelter or medicine‚ it is wrong for people here to spend money on morally unimportant things rather than giving money to help (Hughes). This means that we have a moral obligation to do what we can to alleviate the stress of poverty abroad if it does not do any harm to us helping them. If we are able to benefit people abroad‚ we should do so. Food‚ shelter‚ and quality

Peter Singer’s animal liberation views on animal rights are wrong and he doesn’t quite get it like William Baxter. William Baxter has a more realistic view on animal rights where Peter Singer is trying to get an impossible utopia that will never exist. Peter Signers views on animal rights are that we should collectively understand that the pain of another species is no different than the pain of ours as we discussed in class. We‚ like many other animals feel both pain and pleasure‚ and are capable
