The opening of Rear Window

see the window: it is the only thing which the viewer can focus on in a similar way to the audience of a theatre, focusing on the stage. This credit sequence has some symbolic as the plot lies on what is seen through the window. The fact that the shutters open will allow the action to take place. It also makes the viewer feel like he is waking up in a warm atmosphere created by the sepia color of the shutters and the touch of red used for the credits. As we are going to see, the open...

cousins, descended from a common ancestor.The case for Darwin's theory was enormously strengthened in the twentieth century with the discovery of themechanisms of heredity and the development of molecular genetics. It would not be to my purpose, and would bebeyond my competence, to evaluate the scientific evidence for Darwinism. But it is necessary to spend some timeon the philosophical implications of his theory, assuming that it is well established.From Darwin's time until the present, ev...

Carneades

these works - all of which are lost. Carneades was persuasive, but he was also elusive; and his pupils disagreed on how to interpret him: his successor Clitomachus, who wrote voluminously about his master, confessed that 'he could never understand what Carneades believed' (Cicero, Academics II 139 ); and Metrodorus claimed that 'everyone has misunderstood Carneades' (Philodemus, History of the Academy XXVI 8-10 ). Also like Arcesilaus - and Socrates - before him, Carneades argued ag...

IV REUNION EFFORTS Efforts to reunite the Central American federation in the 1840s all failed. But unity was still seen as a desirable goal—to give the states more power when dealing withforeign nations and to tie together people with a common heritage. But as conservatives came to power in each of the states, they rejected a restored federation,associating the idea too closely with the hated Morazán and his liberal policies. Carrera’s Guatemala was the first formally to declare itself an inde...

Cohen, Hermann

foundation of being in thought: thought as the origin of being. Reflecting the constantly progressing sciences withtheir shifting paradigms, the system of categories and judgments represented in Cohen's logic is open-ended - quitea contrast to Kant's efforts to find fixed normative patterns in our thinking as earnest of its objectivity. There areother deviations: most strikingly, Kant's ‘thing-in-itself' (noumena) (see Kant, I. §3) is eliminated as a superfluousdogmatic prejudice. In another not...

Encyclopedia of Philosophy: Spinoza and Malebranche

While Spinoza's proof of God's existence has convinced few, many people share his vision of nature as a singlewhole, a unified system containing within itself the explanation of all of itself. Many too have followed Spinoza inconcluding that if the universe contains its own explanation, then everything that happens is determined, and thereis no possibility of any sequence of events other than the actual one. ‘In nature there is nothing contingent;everything is determined by the necessi...

Scientists use animals to learn more about health problems that affect both humans and animals, and to assure the safety of new medical treatments. M edical researchers need to understand health problems before they can develop ways to treat them. Some diseases and health problems involve processes that can only be studied in a living organism. Animals are necessary to medical research when it is impractical or unethical to use humans. Animals make good research subjects for a variety of...

Cultural Revolution I INTRODUCTION Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), political campaign in China, launched in 1966 by Chinese Communist Party chairman Mao Zedong to eliminate his political rivals and revolutionize Chinese society.

1990s attempted to wipe out the legacy of the Cultural Revolution. Even Mao, once glorified as “The Great Helmsman” and the “Red Sun,” was officially criticized for his “leftist mistakes” in the Cultural Revolution, but was still praised forhis leadership in both the war against Japan ( see Sino-Japanese Wars) and the civil war against the Kuomintang. Today, while privately vilified by many Chinese, Mao is at the same time still genuinely admired as a powerful national leader. Contributed By:Rut...
