Ramayan and Paradise lost deal with the theme of mythology. The ideas, events, and characters portrayed in these epics have a significant basis in reality. These myths that the authors write about were about tales that served as the basis for two very different cultures. Dealing with these myths and symbols especially those that go beyond merely personal and that comprise of some connections to the wider ethnicity, it will be relevant to refer to the theory of archetypes which sees myths as originating from symbols stored in the collective unconscious. In this paper, women play a major role in the lives of their male counterparts. In Paradise Lost , Eve is seen as strong and props up Adam while In Ramayana , the women are subservient to their men. John Milton’s epic poem Paradise Lost gives women a lot of credit for the male accomplishments. All the female characters in this epic were created by their male counterparts through loyalty, inspiration or submission, and were empowered. It was only through the females that their male’s characters were subsequently empowered to be able to create or make use of the creations they possessed (Empson 65). This is what differs with women in Ramayana. The distinctive character that Eve portrays is seen as one of the signs acting as an embodiment from unconscious. This shows that the females were like the soul of the male beings which gave them life. With the soul’s plays of cunning illusions, the females lure into life the inert matter which is not keen on living and thus comes up with numerous snares to make man fall. This is seen when Eve in the Garden of Eden does everything possible to convince Adam of the righteousness of the forbidden fruit. With the archetype of the woman, enters the realm of which everything she associates with becomes dangerous, magical, and taboo. Eve is characterized by the serpent existing in Adam’s safe haven with proper and honest intentions. Here, Eve succeeds in making Adam unconsciously succumb to her whims through her charming effects into the man’s silence that did not need awakening (Lewis 45). The portrait of Eve in Milton’s Paradise lost is a literary portrait that represents one man’s conscious effort with a knowledgeable and definite personality and system of beliefs. Her decision to eat the fruit is connected with the wish for knowledge. However, these attributes of isolation and individuation brings her out more than just a cultural sign. Milton expects that the man must be in the high position within the male and female relationship but he also concedes that with the absence of women, men would be without powers needed to execute the actions that are necessary for their development. On the other hand, the female characters in Ramayana are seen as meek and submissive to their husbands. Even though their husbands were insensitive and acted according to will
Introduction An outbreak has erupted in Zamfara province in the northwestern section of Nigeria. Doctors confirmed that three villages within Zamfara province are at the heart of the crisis (CDC, n.d). The deadly outbreak known as lead poisoning has claimed 118 children below the age of five. The number of sick children has grown to 1,400, with 1,150 victims hospitalized. A first stop outside the villages depicts a horrific scene of 100 small newly dug graveyards (CDC, n.d). The situation is alarming because the outbreak came from the mining activities done within the area. The challenge is that the natives cannot stop this business because it is their only source of income. The most exposed population are children because they play on the ground where the contaminants are more concentrated (Kurup et al., 2019). Their parents also return from work soaked in dust that is confirmed to be toxic which increases poisoning. This paper explores some of the epidemiological processes applied in the identification process of lead poisoning (Kurup et al., 2019). Solve the Outbreak Challenge “The Village of Gold” is a Center for Disease Control and Prevention game that requires an individual to answer specific entries to define an outbreak (CDC, n.d). After answering the prompts in the game, I discovered the outbreak affecting the people of Zamfara Province (CDC, n.d). Lead poisoning was an outbreak that emerged from the mining activities performed in the area, and this contributed to the poisoning and death of children in the region. The causes, effects, and impact of mineral extractions are revealed through the use of epidemiological processes. The Epidemiological Processes Applied Epidemiology is an unbiased process of collection, evaluation, and interpretation of data within a specific population. The principles of epidemiology seek to define the frequency and the pattern of a health situation in a specified area (CDC, n.d). In this scenario of lead poisoning in the Zamfara province, I applied some of the epidemiological checklists approved by the Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP), which helps extract data on the overall characteristics of an outbreak report and the steps applied (Kurup et al., 2019). The FETP approach used to identify and assess the outbreak included the following steps.   * Confirmation of the outbreak.   * Verification of the diagnosis.   * Case definition.   * Case finding.   * Descriptive epidemiology.   * Hypothesis.   * Analytical epidemiology. Confirmation The sudden surge in the mortality rate and the number of hospitalized children indicated an epidemic. I used the confirmation technique to analyze data gathered from Zamfara province and concluded that there was
Introduction One of the social crimes whose prevalence is gaining popularity is intimate partner violence (IPV). The word intimate violence is best fit as compared to domestic violence basing on its accurate definition of the perpetrator/victim relationship. Within this definition, the word intimate partners implies those individuals who are dating or were doing so at some point in time, married couples or those who were married, and also includes the type of relationship i.e. same sex or opposite sex marriages. Also, this definition does not include parents, brothers and sisters or grandparents. This research paper will try to identify the demographic and historical differences within the perpetrators and victims of this social ill. It will also try to identify the existing literature concerning the topic and how the trend has been changing. In addition, it will identify the theories of crime and hence ascertain why more and more people are engaging in this crime. Historical and Demographic Distribution The rate of IPV varies greatly within different ethnicities, ages, gender etc. the greatest difference could be identified in the gender identities of the victims. For example, the NCJRS report of the year 2000 reported that 25% of women reported being sexually or physically assaulted by either their partner or a former partner. This could be compared to 7.6% of men who reported being assaulted in the same report. Of those who reported being raped or assaulted, 1.5% and 0.9% of women and men respectively reported to have been assaulted within a period of 12 months before the report was released. The report hence finalized that the approximate number of women and men being raped or physically assaulted by their current or former intimate partners annually in the United States was 1.5 million and 834,732 men respectively. These findings were a back up of the findings offered by the Nat
Introduction The greatness of the United States is often associated with its economic and military might that have ensured the place of an international police officer in the world arena. However, this position can be soon questioned by some emerging economies while American leaders tend to neglect modern challenges and the need to adjust to the new environment. Americans will be the victims of leaders’ errors as well as the ones who contributed greatly to the decline of their society. US citizens and residents lost the orientation that guided the nation for over two hundred years. The major threat to the US development is the lack of “meaningful competition at home, as the social mobility of the postwar era has given way to an extraordinary social polarization” (“America’s ‘Oh Sh*T!’ Moment”). America’s decline is due to irreconcilable divisiveness, disrespect for legitimate leaders, and loss of civility in general. Historical perspective One of the pillars of American high position is its economic potential, but the share of global health of this nation decreased from 22.5% in the 1950s to 15.1% in the late 2010s (Preble). One of the reasons for these losses is elites’ focus on their wealth they manage to hold and accumulate making social competition impossible. Divisiveness The distribution of resources in American society is alarming as one percent of Americans hold the largest part of the nation’s wealth, which is a considerable threat to US domination in the world. The competitiveness of the country decreased “from 5.82 to 5.43” while Chinese competitiveness reached 4.90 (“America’s ‘Oh Sh*T!’ Moment”). These figures suggest that the USA is losing one of its competitive advantages at an unprecedented pace while emerging economies try to improve their social mobility. The American society should understand the negative outcomes of the loss of social mobility as even wealthy people will lose a lot in this situation due to the overall decline of the country’s economy. Disrespect for Leadership The presidency of Donald Trump became a surprise for many and has already become a disappointment for the majority of the US population
Religion India is a multi-religious country where people have faiths such as Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhist, Sikhism, and several more. For this assignment, Hinduism will be the primary focus as it is the most widespread religion in India. Hinduism is considered a combination of traditions that do not have set rules or theologies. If to identify the relevance of Hinduism regarding such health care issues as genital herpes or other sexually transmitted diseases, there is no right or wrong since no one usually raises any questions of why a person may get such a disease. Within Hindu practices, no specific interventions have been implemented to take into account religious issues when treating genital herpes. The majority of traditional practices are non-invasive and are targeted at the improvement of the overall well-being of patients. Healing Beliefs and Practices For the Indian population, STIs are pervasive health issues that require adequate management and prevention (Thappa & Sivaranjini, 2011). However, in Hinduism, no controversy occurs as to whether the diseases should be frowned upon; on the other hand, the way of life supported by the religion calls to act in favor of the affected individuals for eliminating the health problem. It is also important to mention that Ayurvedic practitioners and healers are extremely popular within the Hindu culture, with hundreds of people undertaking spiritual journeys to visit healers that reside in remote and enclosed locations (Srivasta, 2016). Healers use naturally sourced ingredients to treat health issues of individuals who come to them in a search for solutions to t
The incredibly beautiful and meaningful Spirited Away anime fantasy film created by the Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki in 2001 captivates one’s attention by its fairy-tale transformations and simultaneously makes one’s ponder over a range of issues. For example, in the five-minute sequence, when Chihiro calmly takes No-Face with her on the journey by the train, a viewer may note honesty, courage, and desire to help others. The bright picture is just a pleasant addition to the rich inner world of the film. The secret of the mentioned scene is that it is close and understandable to everyone like the journey to the fairy tale that is designed not only to amuse and amaze, but also to compel heroes, remember childhood, and believe in the miracle (Ewens). In the flow of the narration, there are some of the most beautiful frames of modern cinema, not to mention animation. As noted in his review of the cartoon by the critic Roger Ebert, each frame is shot with incredible magnanimity and love, while some of them can be described as “gratuitous motions” that Japanese call “ma”. For each of such “ma”, there are details in the corners or in the background that express a certain idea. The key idea is that they offer some time to breathe and live in the world of Miyazaki. According to one of his interviews, people who make films are afraid of silence, so they want to fill it with paper and cover it up, worrying that the audience will be bored (Ebert). The underlying emotions are more important rather than the filling of the film. The function of this scene with the train is to stop for a while and take thought to start something new. The master of anime uses stunning animation, detailed graphics, and luxurious design to depict beautiful landscapes that are observed by passengers (Ewens). The scene logically flows from the previous events and is told linearly, thus supporting the general idea of the anime movie. The sequence presents Chihiro calling No-Face to follow her as she cannot leave him alone. No-Face looks unnecessary, aimless, spineless, and empty. Even in the world of Yubaba, he is a stranger as he has no magic. Understanding these, the girl does not need anything from him yet regrets lonely No-Face, standing under the rain on the street (Runyon). After that, the sequence presents the characters on the train, where a viewer can point out the emptying railway carriage and the awesome colors of the sunset. At this point, various means of the interaction of the filmic elements are used, including meditative music, the lack of speech, and expressive images – all these channels interact with each other. The sequence focuses on a steady perspective. The characters act as if there is no spectator – everything happens rather naturally. Chihiro presented as the main heroine is not idolized, yet she incorporates
Introduction Understanding the practical structures of sentence interpretation has been an area of intense research for over a century, and interest in the basis of language and sentence processing is as old as the initially documented clinical records. In spite of this consideration, the neural design of sentence interpretation has been amazingly complex to categorize, even in gross structural conditions. The fundamental theory, formulated in the 1900s, was direct and perceptive. Sentence interpretation is backed up by the auditory part of the brain. Proof for this assertion originated from people with auditory sentence interpretation problem who usually had disorders in their right superior temporal gyrus, abbreviated as STG. Consequently, the right STG specifically was considered to have been supporting sentence comprehension. The hypothesis was challenged through another discovery in the 1970s. The discovery was that shortfalls in the capability of perceiving sentences added modestly to the auditory perception shortfall. This finding does not discard the importance of the right STG during sentence conception but is an indication that other areas contribute in the process (Warren and Johnson 640). In the 1980s neuropsychological experimental studies indicated that damage to either major or minor parietal regions in the right side of the brain brought about shortfalls in roles that involved the separation or perception of sentence structures (Scott 198). These results illustrated the potential function of the superior parietal path in the discernment of sentence. Conversely, the significance of such results to map the neural paths for sentence interpretation was subject to debate, given that the capability of performing syllable identification and separation roles particularly disconnected from the capability of comprehending orally uttered sentence. For example, there is a patient who has defective syllable separation but excellent phrase perception, and vice versa (Scott and Johnsrude 102). Some researchers interpreted this to imply that sentence perception shortfalls in Wernicke’s model that are not associated with right temporal impairments came from disorders of semantic instead of phonological aspects, while other authors hypothesized that the recording between semantic illustrations and phonological demonstrations was disordered. Suggested justifications for shortfalls i
Introduction The demonstration of bookkeeping is an exercise that influences an investor’s decision-making process. As a result, it can parley the way individuals see the world, to influence comprehension and affect their basic leadership (Adams, Hill & Roberts 1999). Thus, accounting practice evokes a virtual force in the business environment. In an ethical society, this force must be considered, directed, and utilized with responsibility. This offers light to an essential part for scholastics, to scrutinize the space of bookkeeping practice, and how its energy is worked out. Corporate social responsibility reporting CSR is a territory of bookkeeping exploration that spreads both willful and required exposures made by firms regarding the issues considered critical to the group’s financial strength (Aitken 2010). Corporate social reporting has been characterized as having the accompanying parts:  1. Assessing the social effect of corporate exercises  2. Measuring adequacy of corporate social platforms  3. Reporting upon a company’s social duty  4. External and inward data frameworks permitting the evaluation of corporate assets and effects Sustainability reporting A report distributed by an organization or association about the financial, operations, and social effects brought about by its regular exercises is called a sustainability report (CSR). The report shows the association’s qualities, administrative model, and exhibits the connection between its procedure and its dedication to a managed economy. CSR reporting can help associations to gauge, comprehend, and convey their monetary, social, and administrative operations effectively (Baker & Hayes 2011). By implication, the CSR report influences the decision-making process of stakeholders and investors. CSR reporting can be identified with different terms for non-money related reporting, which includes triple bottom report and corporate social obligation (CSR) reporting. CSR is a component of reporting that combines the examination of budget and non-money
It follows from my monitoring that social media are more attractive than news because nowadays people use social media like YouTube and visit social network websites instead of news-related sites. I have also found that a very big number of people have watched the video of ETIHAD AIRWAYS on YouTube, with the resulting 81 “likes” and 5 “dislikes.” There is also the type of people preferring the old media like newspapers, e.g., The National. Such media also advertise the Etihad airways in a very efficient way; however, the given method of advertisement can only be targeted at a particular part of the target audience. Several flight recordings are available on Etihad Airways cabin crew leading the world with a smile video on YouTube (Etihad Airways). The creators of the given channel aimed at two targets: first, videos must show that ETIHAD AIRWAY, with its great service, puts a smile on every client’s face. Second, the videos must display the company’s innovations, such as a new cabin for customers to feel completely relaxed and comfortable in. The Philippine Star claims that Etihad bags have been receiving the top 5 Airlines Award for five years running: “Etihad Airways, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, took top honors for the fifth year in a row in this year’s World Travel Awards” (The Philippine Star). This means that ETIHAD AIRWAYS is represented among the target audience as a progressive company with high-quality services. I think the articles and the videos that positively describe ETIHAD AIRWAYS do a good job, because ETIHAD AIRWAYS staff is doing their best to achieve their goals and satisfy people, and that they should be given credit for their efforts.

My emotional attachment to English language is strengthened by my ability to indentify with the language. English, just like many other languages has a language cluster. The cluster includes but not limited to idioms, variation in languages, intonations, styles, and they form part of social variations. Dialect is a term used to describe the influence of the regional or social background on vocabulary use. The study of dialects is called Dialectology, it entails studying the geographical and social diversities of language, as well as the speech convention of the number of people who share the norms for the language use. Interaction between people of different dialects has lead to various changes in the development of the language with different ways of speaking arising. It is through this different ways of communicating that different assents have arisen. Accent describes the features of pronunciation that shows the social identity as well as the regional one. My dialect of English gives me the accent that I use in communicating and it is like my identity of my community (Lave, 1991). Registers and style are the other variety of English language. By description, a register, which is also called a style, is used in particular social set up or setting. A setting defines social recognized events like a baby talk or even registers used when people are joking. Professions of a particular field are also known to use a certain register, which is also called jargon. In English, there are many jargons in many professions that ranging from medicine, Information Technology, just to mention a few. Different situations calls for different registers been used, the choice of the register to use is determined by the set up, the topic of discussion and the relationship linking the different speakers. Shifting of registers is also common as the perception about the event changes. For example, is a friend may call another friend in the office phone assuming the one been called is the receptionist the first few words sound official, with the continuation of the conversation the register set up may change. Registers are significant to me since they define the way I address different people in different situations and for different reasons (Ottenheimer, 2006). Idiolect is another variety of English language; it is a language that one uses which is typical to him/her. Idiolect among individuals is affected by the encountering regional and social directs, registers in a certain profession as well as encountering people of different languages. Knowledge of idiolect is like having knowledge of some new language or grammar in some ones mind. Interaction with many people of different social background has enhanced my English such that I can be comfortable among a conversation between people of different background. Therefore, due to the interaction I may consider my English more diverse (Ottenheimer, 2006). English language also h
