Susan Bordo examines Western culture as it relates to the body‚ specifically the slender body in this chapter of her book‚ Unbearable Weight. Diets have been important since the Ancient Greek and Middle Ages‚ where the Greeks mastered their “public” selves by regulating “food intake… as a road to self-mastery” and the Christians fasted for their “inner” selves to achieve “spiritual purification and domination of the flesh” (page 185).

“And Paret? Paret died on his feet.” that sentence right there shows how fast a person can die in one sport. One punch can knock you down. Also if the force is strong‚ that one punch could kill you. The article “The Death of Benny Paret” is a prime example of why boxing should not be played. Boxing is just like when guys(Gladiators) would be in a arena and fight till the death back in 180AD. Benny Paret fights a man named Griffith and Griffith punches Paret 18 times and it kills him. Boxing is not

Sigmund Freud asserts that the human mind contains three psychic zones. Robert Stevenson’s novella‚ Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde‚ contains both conscious and unconscious minds. Mr. Hyde is a man whose body image represents an animal‚ he acts as if he were an animal; he trampled a young girl who was running in his path. During this event his mind is totally submerged in the unconscious. Freud referrers to this as the “pleasure principle”. The id is “totally lacking in rational logic since mutually contradictory

Ruth Stein believes that fundamentalism is one’s personal “quest” to “violently transcend experiences” of one’s fear of eternal slumber (death) and how the existence of another human being serves as an “obstacle” that distances an individual further from their personal desires.

Tylor believed that “culture” was‚ ultimately‚ a single body of information of which different human groups had greater or lesser amounts. This understanding is based on his belief in the psychic unity of humankind‚ here referred to as “the uniform action of uniform causes.” Marx/Engels believes that that men developing their material production and their material intercourse‚ alter‚ along with this their real existence‚ their thinking
