...Interactions[edit] Interactionism is micro-sociological and believes that meaning is produced through the interactions of individuals. The social interaction is a face-to-face process consisting of actions, reactions, and mutual adaptation between two or more individuals. It also includes animal interaction such as mating. The interaction includes all language (including body language) and mannerisms. The goal of the social interaction is to communicate with others. If the interaction is in danger of ending before one intends it to, it can be conserved by conforming to the others' expectations, by ignoring certain incidents or by solving apparent problems. Erving Goffman underlines the importance of control in the interaction. One must attempt to control the others' behaviour during the interaction, in order to attain the information one is seeking and in order to control the perception of one's own image. Important concepts in the field of interactionism include the "social role" and Goffman's "presentation of self." Interactionist methodology[edit] Interactionists want to understand each individual, and how they act within society. In extreme cases, they would deny class as an issue, and would say that we cannot generalize that everyone from one social class thinks in one way. Instead they believe everyone has different attitudes, values, culture and beliefs. Therefore, it is the duty of the sociologist to carry out the study within society. They set out to gather qualitative...

...Senoria Mitchell Timothy Crowley ENG 315 April 29, 2015 Essay 2: The Tragedy of Othello the Moor of Venice William Shakespeare’s play entitled Othello contained many striking scenes that contributed to the play’s climax and its relevance as a whole. The climax was Othello killing his wife over his jealousy. Othello’s jealousy stemmed in part from his own insecurities and also from Iago continuing to plant more doubt in him. These things collectively caused Othello to murder his wife, Desdemona. To get Othello to the point of murdering someone he loved so dearly, Iago conjured up accusations of infidelity against Desdemona. Certain scenes play different roles in leading up to Desdemona’s death. This paper will discuss the scenes and prove that they directly lead to the death of Desdemona. In act 5 Scene 2, Othello commits murder against his wife Desdemona as part of a bond he made with Iago, the deal was that Iago would kill Cassio and then Othello in turn would have to murder Desdemona. In this scene, Othello has an intimate conversation with himself and then speaks to his wife when she awakes. With himself, he talks about how fair and pure she looks. She is beautiful and seemingly untainted to him he is hesitant to kill her. He talks to her about praying that Heaven have mercy on her soul for her sins. He does not want to kill her soul as well as her body. It is obvious that he does not want to do anything to hurt Desdemona at all, but he feels that it is his duty as an...

...Art Search One Pilar Denha Art Appreciation Baker College of Auburn Hills 7-1-2014 Art Search One The Sacred Realm * Title of the work of art: Assumption * Artist: Tiziano Vecellio also known as Titian * Date: 1518 * Page number from Getlein: p. 42 * Material: Primarily used oil-ground paint * Historical Art Movement: This painting represents the assumption of the Virgin Mary into heaven body and soul. Titian imagined the way she died and all the angels gathered around her in time of comfort and at the top of the picture there is God welcoming her home. This is considered to be a sacred realm because it is a world we cannot see except through faith. What is interesting about the sacred realm focuses mainly on faith by demonstrating it through abstract ideas. I say that because we really do not know what angels and God look like so when the artist creates that for the viewers to see and have an image in their head. Although this painting is not in a museum, “The Assumption can be seen from the far end of the church, drawing the eye to the sacred space of the altar” (Getlein, 2010, p. 43). Politics and Social Order * Title of the work of art: Lion Panel * Artist: Jean Marie Chauvet * Date: 30,000 B.C.E. * Page number from Getlein: p. 5 * Material: Cave Art * Historical art movement: I chose this cave art because it is not typically the type of art that I would usually pay any attention too. This piece of art is pictured in...

...In both texts there is a strong sense of religion which emphasises the importance and imperative nature of marriage. Although two different religions, they both follow the strict rule of no sex before marriage, otherwise the women are seen as impure. Despite having a “husband” in the novel, Tess is never actually married to him in the fullest sense of marriage that Hardy proposes. This is on a parallel to A Thousand Splendid Suns where both Mariam and Laila are married to Rasheed in a physical, lawful sense but are not emotionally and internally married and are in fact very distant from him. Marriage causes the protagonists to be entrapped. In A Thousand Splendid suns, Mariam and Laila are trapped inside the house with Rasheed, due to the Taliban imposing the rule on women to “stay inside your homes at all times” unless “accompanied by a mahram, a male relative”. But not only are they physically trapped, they are also mentally trapped in a cycle of submissiveness to Rasheed and fear of his actions. Rasheed is just as guilty as the Taliban as even before the Taliban came into power and exercised these rules, living with Rasheed was like living in a prison for Mariam and Laila through the power he exerted over them “Rasheed didn't say anything. And, really, what could be said, what needed saying when you'd shoved the barrel of your gun into your wife's mouth?” Rasheed holds a frightening amount of power over the two protagonists which is often achieved through violence. They...

...of scale). And with inflation pushing it up to $11. The proportion of increase is similar(i.e 10% for both), but the real price increase is different, firm A $0.90 and firm B $1. Thus firm B having a $0.10 increased revenue more than firm A. This is how it benefits. And talking about disadvantages of inflation, there are many. (effect on production and economics growth) Talking in realation with value of money,we mean,purchasing power. The amount of goods that one unit of money can buy is called purchasing power. It is inversely related to the value of money. Thus, if the value of money increases,purchasing power decreases and vice-versa. Hope I made things clear does corruption,hoardings,etc. have to do anything with inflation... Yess! obviously! See, things are interrelated. With hoarding of goods, the supply of goods are reduced in a market. If it a necessary good (for example say...

There are very few cases where you do need to tend to the dog's behavior due to abuse and sociological damage; i seen several dogs with this problem their owners are very pleased with the work I've done. Once you begin to work with your dog you must give the right responses. for example: let's say you are trying to teach your dog the "Down" command. Instead of down, your dog sits. Do not ever use "No." EVER! "No" is for when your dog has and accident on your carpet, not for a wrong command. Once your dog does the command right it's not. "Yes" You need to freak out (positively) with praise. "Yes" needs to be "YESS!! WHAT A GOOD DOG!!!!" then a thousand kisses. That way your dog is extremely sure of what it is you want him to do....

Andre was a good kid and did what he what he was told. He went into the safari search browser and typed in Napa valley fires. He was immediately mesmerized by the xpictures that he saw, pictures of burnt houses, crying families and flaming orange flames that destroyed anything that came in its path. Andre felt lucky that his house and his family was not like that. He was daydreaming about what would happen if his house was like that. “ANDRE” his teacher yelled. He had fallen asleep on his desk. “Y-yess” he stammered “Did you finish your mini essay?” the teacher asked....

When we reached the peak of the drop the ride suddenly went so fast down the ride everyone screamed. We passed more drops and the ride ended.The ride was very short but fun because of how fast it was. We got off the ride and my cousins said the next ride is shivering timbers… nervousness came tickling my body as my cousins said to me “Jazzy you’ll be fine! Come on it’ll be fun” “I dont know” I replied back We got to the shivering timbers and my cousins asked me for the last time “Do you want to go then?” I thought “Its my only chance, if i dont go people will call me a coward yess...noo i dont know” “Yes” the words came out of my mouth “Ill go” “YAY” they all cheered back The line wasn’t short or huge so it took a while to get our turn. When we got on the rollercoaster and buckled the seatbelts. I immediately thought “Oh theres no turning back oh how i regret this..” The ride started slow as we started getting higher and higher to the peak off the drop. I closed my eyes right before we reached the peak and grabbed on tightly. The ride stopped a little then suddenly as fast as a jet it went down the drop so fast. “ I was dying inside” as more and more drops came. I thought in my head “when is this dang ride gonna end!” The last drop came and the ride ended. “Wow” i said to my cousins “I survived” “We told you jazzy...

...Forgiven I stood motionless and looked at the solid, dark brown wooden door. The house was painted white, and black on the wooden beams and window panes. It looked huge and expensive from the outside. I had to make my mind up whether to knock or press the bell. I turned to face the garden. I thought about going back to my car and drove home. Home. That was where I wanted to be; or was it where I would be after I knocked the door? I sighed and walked to the side where there was a wooden bench by the beautiful garden. I could see that the woman in the family loved the garden. The smell of white lilies reminded me of the florist down the road on Sixteenth Street. I sat on the sturdy looking wooden bench, trying to figure out what I would say if someone was to open the door. I wished I did not find out where she was so that I would not have three sleepless nights thinking of why she left me, whether she was looking for me or whether I should be angry. I was abandoned at Bliss Home when I was barely four. They said they found me playing joyfully in the playground, innocently thinking that I was sent to school. After three years, I found out that my mother left me at the orphanage because she had to go and find my father who left us when I was two. I was devastated, knowing that my mother left me to strangers. Funny, I thought, how manipulative and contradictory adults could be when it comes to giving advice. Those at Bliss Home took good care of me and made me realise that I...

...The main protagonist of Ralph Ellison invisible man is not the only one who remains unseen as the novel unfolds. Another element also cloaked in invisibility follows our unknown character throughout the novel, changing both beat and tempo as the novel develops. Rather like the invisible man, the ongoing musical beat that runs through out the invisible man’ may not be visible yet it is very clearly felt and heard. It is the distinct incorporation of the inflowing musical beat that allows for an interloping of ideas based upon the visible, the invisible and the creative with the novel. The main theme within the ‘invisible man’ is that of the more obvious theme of invisibility. Ellison explores through the use of music such as in the form of jazz the moments or experiences where invisibility takes control. Such breaks in visibility signify a chance for the protagonist to escape and break the mould of the what can be called ‘constitutional visibility’ allowing for the exploration of ones own identity and individuality. An individuality and identity that is not in any way restricted to what is generally accepted as visible. Our Guarantee To You No Quibble Money Back Guarantee! We are so confident in our ability to produce top level academic work that we are prepared to back it with a "No Quibble, Money Back" guarantee! Such breaks that allow for such explorations to take place within the novel can be seen from the very beginning where in the prologue the protagonist recalls...
