The formation of atoms allowed many other wavelengths of light,wavelengths that had been interfering with the free electrons prior to the cooling of the universe, to travel much farther than before. This change set free radiation thatwe can detect today. After billions of years of cooling, this cosmic background radiation is at about 3 K (-270°C/-454°F).The cosmic background radiation was first d...

  That day, he had met God First, we can notice the progression of the religious domain, in opposition to the magical one. One might think that this represents the victory of christianism against paganism. The very beginning of the story (“Once upon a time” l.1) introduces a fairy tale, a magical world. Then, the vanity in the place is “displayed” (l.5), as if it had his own will. In comparison, in this first part of the text, there...

• baudelaire analyse L'ennemi

  Baudelaire highlighting the time that passes through a progression from the past to the present, the discouraging record of this stormy youth is underlined by the past composed «on fait» (vers 3) and by the proposition of consequence to the present. The metaphor continues in the mention of a nature which has undergone the meteorological elements in their destructive character, the past having left traces: a life ravaged by «le tonnerre et la pluie», by the blows of fate and the daily g...

Love makes him blind and the hyperbole shows the power of imagination: “The lover sees Helen’s beauty in a brow of Egypt” (l.11). Then, the poet turns abstract into concrete, capturing in words what humans can’t imagine. He creates a news language, he has a central role four society and also, he is intermediary between heaven and earth. Like justify the chiasmus line 13: “The poet’s eye, in a fine frenz...

Then the bird said, “Nevermo...

  important economic area. The gradual expansion of markets and the ever growing production of agricultural products led to innovation of new technologies, resulting in an increase in farm production.

• Discuss the ways in which Jamaica Kincaid explores Annie's relationship with her mother in the first two chapters

  parents have trouble expressing their parental affection especially physically either because the parent is imposing a kind of distance between him and the child, or simply because he is not comfortable being involved in this type of contact. From this part, love and affection are explicitly expressed in this: Annie's mother is very lovable and tactile with her daughter. During the early stages of childhood, children are very dependent of affection and a mother's love is also a first step to lov...

• Behaviourism, analytic

  2 Influences and arguments A first, important influence on analytical behaviourism was the doctrine of verificationism. According to one version of this view,the meanings of statements are given by the procedures used to find out if they are true. This was supposed to eliminate meanings as occult entities, and put the subject on a scientific footing. Anyone attracted by that view would have seen considerable merit in behaviourism. For we typically verify statements about other people's mental...

  Jipcho, who later apologized to Ryun, echoed the American's sentiments in an interview for the Olympic Series. “It was unfair to people like Jim Ryun, to Tümmler, and probably to me.

Immediately following the race, Keino denied that such a strategy existed. “[We] had no plan at all,” he told the New York Times. “I knew Jim Ryun to have a fast kick i...

• Conceptual analysis

  Kant's important idea that conceptual truths can be either analytic a priori or synthetic a priori is effectively erased by Gottlob Frege in his Foundations of Arithmetic (1884). Frege's overriding philosophical aim is to put mathematical proof on a firm footing by reducing the truths of arithmetic to analytic truths of logic. In view of this, the proper goal of an analysis is the production of non-circular, explanatory, yet meaning-preserving general definitions of fundamental concepts -...

Most of these writers specialized or excelled indrama, and consequently the so-called battle of the ancients and moderns—the critical comparison of Greek and Roman authors with more rece...
