  who are just as well as brave. The most indispensable item of knowledge Cyrus of Persia acquires is to unlearn what is evil ( fr. 21 ). Few specific examples of appropriate exertions survive. A bad reputation is said to be good and 'equal to exertion' ( Diogenes Laertius, VI 11 ). The sayings ascribed to Antisthenes indicate a strong tendency (congenial to Stoicism) to redraw concepts like kinship and friendship in terms of moral notions such as justice andgoodness, or to prefer the c...

  The use of swastikas in his master pieces created a big polemic in Sweden forcing the Prime Minister to remove two of Bengtsson’s paintings. Indeed, because of the European Union Foreign secretaries meeting taking place on September the 4 th and 5 th 2009, Swedish authorities decided to remove these paintings judged “sensitive”.

  It may be that the gulfs will wash us down;It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'We are not now that strength which in old daysMoved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,—One equal temper of heroic hearts,Made weak by time and fate, but strong in willTo strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Some thinkers(Stuart Hampshire ( 1954 ), for example) have argued that reasoning in criticism is impossible because of the impossibility of this sort of generality in that context. Thus, it is claimed, the fact that a painting has a patch ofcolour in a certain position may be the explanation for its admirable compositional features. But the existence ofthat patch in that location cannot...

However, some frogs andtoads seem to disappear for no reason. The golden toad of Costa Rica and the gastric brooding frog ofAustralia have become extinct. Both animals lived in wilderness areas. Some frogs with abnormal bodies have been discovered. Scientists worry that pollution is harming thesefrogs. To help frogs, som...

  to him, the eternal Son of God become man is at once human priest and victim, who perfects and replaces the OldTestament institutions of animal sacrifice. The author takes seriously the (atoning) purpose of those replacedinstitutions, and, while expounding the moral inadequacy of animal sacrifice (a view anticipated in the OldTestament prophets), theologizes the doctrine by centring atonement on the representative human achievement ofthe saviour. The effect of this metaphorical...

  No one understands exactly how migrating animals know when to migrate or how they find their way.Some experts think that the shortening days in fall or the lengthening days in spring may act as a signalto birds and other animals. Such signals indicate that it is time to start their long journey. Once on their way, birds are thought to navigate by the Sun and stars. Research shows that birds alsomay be sensitive to Earth’s magnetic field—the space around Earth where a magnetic force is felt. Fish...
