Huis Clos

Huis Clos est une pièce française existentialiste 1944 par Jean-Paul Sartre. La pièce est la source de la citation célèbre de Sartre « L'enfer, ce est les autres. » La pièce est une représentation de vie après la mort dans lequel trois personnages défunts sont punis en étant enfermés dans une chambre ensemble pour éternité. Les trois âmes damnées, Joseph Garcin, Inès Serrano, et Estelle Rigault, sont enfermés dans la même chambre dans l'enfer par un Valet mystérieux. Tous avaient prévu appareils de torture pour les punir pour l'éternité, mais ils ont plutôt trouvé une chambre simple meublée dans le style du Second Empire français.
Quand Garcin est conduit dans la chambre, il est confus au sujet de ce qui se passe. Ce n’est pas ce que l'enfer Garcin imaginait et il n'a pas totalement accepté sa mort, donc il essaie d'ouvrir la porte. Dès qu'il renonce à ouvrir la porte et s’assied, la porte est ouverte. Le Valet apporte une femme nommée Inez, qui pense immédiatement que Garcin est un tortionnaire parce qu'elle prétend de savoir comment tortionnaires regardent. Elle explique aussi qu'elle n’aime pas les hommes. Dépit sa froideur, Garcin essaie de faire la paix avec Inez, expliquant qu’il faut être courtois à l'autre dans leur situation. Le Valet rentre suivie par Estelle et Inez prend instantanément d'affection pour elle, Inez proposant de changer canapés avec elle et souhaitant qu'elle ait des fleurs à lui donner. Estelle vient de mourir de pneumonie. Inez lui demande si Estelle a souffert et elle a dit non, qu'elle n’était consciente. La même chose vaut pour les deux autres: Inez étouffé dans son sommeil d'une cuisinière à gaz qui fuit et Garcin a été abattu par un peloton d'exécution.
Ils commencent à se demander pourquoi ils ont été placés ensemble. Inez affirme que rien n'a été laissé au hasard. Elle pense que la chambre a été créée en pensant à eux. Estelle est choqué par la notion de Inez que les trois d'entre eux ont été placés ensemble pour torturer l'autre. Garcin suggère qu'ils devraient confessent ce qu'ils faisaient, ils peuvent comprendre ce qui se passe. Estelle affirme qu'une erreur a été commise. Elle a épousé un homme qu'elle n’aime pas, mais a refusé de le tromper. Les deux autres fait d'accord qu'elle n'a pas péché. Garcin dit qu'il est mort défendre pour ses principes, il affirme qu'il a couru un journal pacifiste et refusé de se battre quand la guerre a éclaté. Mais Inez déclare qu'ils devraient tous cesser de mentir à l'autre, expliquant qu'ils sont tous âmes damnées qui méritent d'être en enfer.
Inès refuse de croire qu'ils ont tous fini dans la salle par accident et se rend compte qu'ils ont été placés ensemble pour faire de l'autre misérable. Elle découvre qu'ils sont tortionnaires des uns des autres. Ces caractères torturent l'autre parce qu'ils sont capables de réfléchir un des autre mieux que n’importe quel miroir. Ils torturent les uns les autres parce qu'ils sont ce qu'ils ne peuvent pas avoir. Inez veut Estelle, qui veut Garcin, qui accepte plus avec Inez, alors un gros triangle amoureux malheureux est créer. Il est impossible d'échapper à l'autre et il n'y a pas échappé à la vérité. Garcin suggère qu'ils devraient essayer de laisser l'autre seul en étant silencieux, mais Inès commence à chanter à propos de l'exécution et Estelle veut en vain de trouver un miroir pour vérifier sur son existence. Inès tente de séduire Estelle en proposant d'être son «miroir» en lui disant tout ce qu'elle voit, mais finit par l'effrayer la place. Il est vite évident que Inès est attiré par Estelle, Estelle est attiré Garcin, et Garcin n’a pas d'humeur pour un comportement sexuel. Voila le triangle. Après argumenter, ils décident d'avouer leurs crimes afin qu'ils sachent à quoi se attendre de l'autre. Garcin trompé et maltraité sa femme; Inès séduit la femme de son cousin tout en vivant avec eux; elle explique aussi qu'elle aime rendre les gens vulnérables souffrent. Son amant a tué les deux en laissant le gaz pendant qu'elles dormaient. Après avoir refusé de reconnaître qu'elle a fait quelque chose de mal, Estelle confesse enfin d’avoir triché sur son mari et de tomber enceinte. Elle se enfuit en Suisse pour avoir le bébé et le noyé juste avant les yeux de son amant. Son amant, puis s’est tiré dans le visage. Dépite leurs révélations, ils continuent d’être sur les nerfs de chacun. Inès reconnaît que l'attractivité du Estelle sera la torturer pour l'éternité et qu'ils sont tous dans une trappe bien aménagé. Mais, elle refuse la sympathie des autres et insiste sur le fait qu'elle veut faire face à l'enfer sur ses propres termes. Garcin donne enfin aux tentatives d'Estelle pour le séduire, qui entraîne Inès fou. Garcin est constamment interrompu par ses pensées et il demande à Estelle pour lui dire qu'il ne est pas un lâche pour avoir tenté de fuir son pays en temps de guerre. Même si elle est conforme, Inès lui dit qu’Estelle est juste feint attirance pour lui, afin qu'elle puisse être avec un homme.
Ceci entraîne Garcin pour tenter de se échapper. Après il essaye d'ouvrir la porte à plusieurs reprises, il est ouvert de façon inexplicable et tout à coup, mais Garcin est incapable de se résoudre à quitter, et les autres restent ainsi. Il dit qu'il ne sera pas sauvé jusqu'à ce qu'il convaincre Inès à avoir confiance en lui. Elle refuse, disant qu'il est de toute évidence d’un lâche, et promettant de faire misérable toujours. Garcin conclut que plutôt que de dispositifs de torture ou la punition physique, "l'enfer ce est les autres." Estelle essaie de persévérer dans sa séduction de Garcin, mais il dit qu'il ne peut pas faire l'amour tandis Inès regarde. Estelle, furieux, ramasse un coupe-papier et poignarde répétée Inès. Comme ils sont tous déjà morts, cette attaque ne fait rien et Inès se poignarde même, commencer à rire. Estelle commentaires sur l'idée de leur être coincé ici pour toujours et rit aussi, tous les trois se joindre à rire avant Garcin conclut enfin, "Eh bien, continuons".

Film Review

...Ang Lee's "Life of Pi" is a miraculous achievement of storytelling and a landmark of visual mastery. Inspired by a worldwide best seller that many readers must have assumed was unfilmable, it is a triumph over its difficulties. The story involves the 227 days that its teenage hero spends drifting across the Pacific in a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger. They find themselves in the same boat after an amusing and colorful prologue, which in itself could have been enlarged into an exciting family film. Then it expands into a parable of survival, acceptance and adaptation. The story begins in a small family zoo in Pondicherry, India, where the boy christened Piscine is raised. Piscine translates from French to English as "swimming pool," but in an India where many more speak English than French, his playmates of course nickname him "pee." Determined to put an end to this, he adopts the name "Pi," demonstrating an uncanny ability to write down that mathematical constant that begins with 3.14 and never ends. The zoo goes broke, and Pi's father puts his family and a few valuable animals on a ship bound for Canada. In a bruising series of falls, a zebra, an orangutan, a hyena and the lion tumble into the boat with the boy, and are swept away by high seas. His family is never seen again, and the last we see of the ship is its lights disappearing into the deep — a haunting shot. This is a hazardous situation for the boy (Suraj Sharma), because the film steadfastly refuses to sentimentalize...

Micro Aggression in Daily Life

...Microaggressions in Everyday Life Chinese people consist of the majority—Han and other 55 ethnic minorities, such as Hui, also called Muslim Chinese. Han and Hui have different living customs. For example, Hui are forbidden to eat pork while pork is the most common meat consumed by Han. In my high school, there were two dinning rooms: a big one for Han students, and the other small one for Hui students. I had dinner with my friend-Qian, who was Hui, but stayed with me in Han Chinese dinning room on that day. I enjoyed my pork dish, and wanted to share it with her but she refused. Qian explained, “I am Hui people, we do not eat pork.” I did not give up and said, “Come on, I have known you for ages, we are the same, we are all Chinese people. I can not see any differences.” My friend began to keep silent, and I kept persuading her, “just try one slice of the pork, they are really delicious”. However, my friend frowned and said “I can not eat it. The smell of the pork makes me sick”. After hearing her words, I stopped persuading her to eat pork because I did not want to make her uncomfortable. Then we began to talk other topics. I was unaware that what I committed was a microaggression at that time. Microaggressions are verbal, behavioral, or environmental indignities, whether intentional or unintentional happening in daily life, conveying communicating hostile, derogatory,...

This paper also combated some problems relating to Halal markets in China and provided some basic information about Chinese Muslims and on Halal markets in China for potential Halal marketers. Keywords: Chinese Muslims and Halal markets in China 1. INTRODUCTION As companies head towards a global market that deals with people from many different cultural backgrounds, it has become essential for marketers to understand culture’s influence on consumer behaviours. The recognition of the importance of culture on consumer behaviours has led to an increasing amount of research across cultures (Sojka and Tansuhaj 1995). More significantly, many studies have succeeded in establishing links between culture and consumer behaviours (McCracken 1986). As the cultural variables and differences increase, the number of communication misunderstandings also increase. Barnlund (1989) suggests that a way to approach cultural understanding is to undertake a careful description of how people relate to one another in search of the norms that regulate social acts or behaviours. The most powerful elements of cultures are those that...

As we know Saudi Arabia has large population of Muslim, and also in west of China there are millions of Uyghur and Hui people believe Islam. I choose these two countries because they have different norms in business. First of all, dress code in business, according to their law, the devout Muslim should dress traditional for both men and women in Saudi Arabia’s work field. For example, women should “wear the high necklines and skirt that fall below the knee”, they also should wear a scarf that which cover the head. For men, “they should be covered in loose and unrevealing clothing from his navel to his knee”. (The Islamic Dress Code, 2013).

Gun Control

...a gun killing four students and then himself. Reports stated that “he just wasn’t in the right state of mind.” Although, a gun may end up in the hands of a mentally unstable person, one may argue a background check is required for anyone to be allowed to carry a gun. According to “Students Debate Guns on Campus-Pro,” Tina Divara declares, “Texas has strict regulations on who can and cannot carry concealed weapons.” Meaning you must be 21 years or older and have a clean background just to apply for the gun license. It may be true that Texas has strict regulations on getting a gun license. However, a gun could end up in the wrong hands of a person with a history of mental illness. For Example, in 2007, at Virginia Tech University, Seung Hui Cho, a student at the school, opens fire leaving 32 people dead. This student had a background of mental health problems, but was still able to purchase the gun he used and another one. It is said that his report of mental illness wasn’t in the database. In “Did Cho Buy the Guns Legally?”, Michael Isikoff states that “More than 20 states don’t report any mental health records to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System”.

He and his family came to the country from South Korea when Cho was about eight years old. They eventually settled in Centreville, Virginia, and ran a dry-cleaning business. He was known as a shy child who liked basketball and did well in math. Cho was also bullied by other children, including wealthy members of his church. In high school, Cho was described as sullen and aloof. After graduating in 2003, he went on to study at Virginia Tech University. Located in Blacksburg, Virginia, the school has an extensive campus with more than 26,000 students residing there. Cho stood out as a near-silent loner who wrote gruesome poems, stories, and plays. He sometimes referred to himself as “Question Mark.” One professor, poet Nikki Giovanni, had him removed from her class for disturbing the other students. She told Time magazine that “there was something mean about this boy.” She said that he was “a bully” and always came to class wearing sunglasses and a hat, which she would always ask him to remove. Cho was also photographing the legs and knees of female students in the class. Other members of the English department faculty were concerned about him as well.

College Shootings

...College campuses can be overwhelmed with endurance and stress but there can be good and bad examples of that. One of the most horrific and saddening examples would be the Virginia Tech shootings of 2007. On a normal day on campus, Seung-Hui Cho opened fire killing 35 innocent lives before he took his own. Two editorials entitled, “Perilous Privacy at Virginia Tech” and “Colleges are Watching Troubled Students” took a different approach to the events outlining how situations like this can be dealt with differently. When a student is bothered by sometime it can be pretty noticeable and in this case Seung had been submitted to help during middle school, high school, and during his days at Virginia Tech. Both editorials talk about how faculty, police, and mental-health workers can work together to help prevent situations like this. McMurray states that the University of Kentucky requires their staff to meet twice a month to discuss students’ issues they noticed. Unfortunately, this is where the tough part of the issue comes into play. Due to privacy laws they have to watch what they say fairly thoroughly. Federal and state laws make it difficult for these people to withhold information without break the law of someone else’s privacy. The author of “Perilous Privacy at Virginia Tech” brought up a good issue to why no one had contacted Sueng’s parents to notify them of his disability. They however can discuss anything but the student’s transcript without breaking...

Critique Killer Joe

...William Friedkin a 77 ans, une flopée de chefs-d’oeuvre au compteur (French Connection, L’Exorciste, Police fédérale Los Angeles...) et une réputation de tyran des plateaux à faire pâlir David O. Russell. C’est une légende vivante, le seul représentant du Nouvel Hollywood – avec Coppola – à n’avoir jamais courbé l’échine devant la toute-puissance des studios, ce qui lui a valu d’être marginalisé au cours des années 1990 et 2000, période de disette qu’il a mise à profit pour devenir metteur en scène d’opéra. Sa renaissance cinématographique a eu lieu en 2007 avec Bug, objet inclassable, entre huis clos mental, dispositif expérimental et film d’épouvante, qui a révélé le jeu intensément fracassant de Michael Shannon. À cette occasion, Friedkin a surtout rencontré Tracy Letts, dramaturge accompli qui adaptait là pour la première fois sur grand écran l’une de ses pièces. Les deux compères récidivent aujourd’hui avec Killer Joe qui, plus encore que Bug, établit définitivement une parenté entre le travail de Letts et celui de Tennessee Williams. Les deux auteurs partagent la même tendresse pour les exclus et les personnes émotionnellement fragiles qu’ils plongent, non sans un certain sadisme, dans des situations impossibles afin d’observer leurs réactions, tels des entomologistes. Avec la famille Smith, on est servi : le fils, Chris, est un petit dealer irresponsable ; son père, Ansel, un minable sans coeur ; sa belle-mère, Sharla, une cougar vulgaire ; Dottie, un ange ambigu.

Vous êtes sorti sain et sauf des basses calomnies, vous avez conquis les coeurs. Vous apparaissez rayonnant dans l'apothéose de cette fête patriotique que l'alliance russe a été pour la France, et vous vous préparez à présider au solennel triomphe de notre Exposition Universelle, qui couronnera notre grand siècle de travail, de vérité et de liberté.
