Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Polemic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Philosophy - General Essays, Eras, grade: N/A. professional essay, University of Rome 'La Sapienza' (CORIS), course: Journalism, Media and English, language: English, abstract: This philosophy paper argues for the need to bring back a meritocracy into our culture again. It debates the question of whether authority and leadership should come from merit and achievement or whether a person's life should be the primary focus in our society for this role. To do this, it tries to show how important it is to follow the examples that were always set in place by the great masters as heroes of the past and forms a critique against the postmodernism of the 90s. In particular it criticises the media including print and online journalism.

Neuware -Scientific Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Film Science, grade: N/A: Professional Lecture, University of Technology, Sydney (School of Design), course: MA Animation, language: English, abstract: This lecture ¿Revising Animation Genres: Jan Svankmajer, Tim Burton and James Cameron and the Study of Myth¿ addresses the idea or concept of today¿s classification of genres for animation feature films and interrogates why this concept needs to be revised today.The lecture is also about what makes it possible to tell a story successfully within films that use animation visual effects today.To do this, it discusses why the concept of the animation genre needs to be revised and suggests how today we need to look at the idea of genres in animation differently than we did in the past.By contrast with the modernism of the past (when fixed styles in art and culture had existed, making it possible to create certain strong recognisable frameworks for art which had helped us categorise different styles and genres and types of film and types of stories), today, a lot more art and art making is made up from a lot of pastiche, which now sees the appropriating of a mixture of ideas from other contexts, genres and themes.This appropriation of ideas previously not normally grouped together within an artwork or film or piece of animation is now being combined into an overall fraternizing of codes and references in films that often would employ animation visual effects.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 16 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Academic Paper from the year 2010 in the subject Art - Art Theory, General, The University of Western Australia, language: English, abstract: The paper focuses on explaining why today (conceptual) and post-conceptual art practices generated from specific theories during the 1960s and 1970s would precipitate the need for the decline of philosophical aesthetics in discussing today¿s contemporary art. Today, since ¿aesthetic experience is to be conceived as conforming to the ruling cultural ideology¿ much of the ¿visual turn¿, would derive from street artists, sub-cultures and darker cultures who, rebellious by nature use (conceptual) and post-conceptual art practices, which increasingly produce theoretical positions, which contribute to the discursive paradigms adopted by today¿s theoreticians of visual culture.Also contributing to the ¿visual turn¿, is the active role played by gallery audiences who help to produce the meaning of the work itself¿their role now has largely changed from passive contemplation to active participation. The paper defines why the preponderance of perspectives accumulated today (used by theoreticians of visual culture) informed by the artist¿s intention as a new theory in itself and the audience as ¿participant¿ is currently outweighing the significance of aesthetic theory. In the paper, I define and evaluate why philosophical aesthetics is no longer being seen as necessary to provide critical reflection of new media, post-conceptual art practices and the digital revolution.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 20 pp. Englisch.

Perhaps, many of us have heard about post-modernism And some can say that we have read about it. But how many really know how much post-modernism has influenced every single thing we now do and think Making special reference to Jordan Peterson's critiques as well as Socrates and The Enlightenment period and the internet, the essay discusses and evaluates the good and bad side effects of post-modernism and addresses how we might learn from understanding them.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Essay from the year 2008 in the subject Museum Studies, , language: English, abstract: The essay discusses the German philologist, archaeologist and historian J.J. Winckelmann¿s theoretical influence on the conception of the Classical museum model as defined and established by the Louvre within the nineteenth-century in Paris. From its initiation, the Louvre would furnish an example for the Metropolitan and for scores of galleries around the world to replicate. This would include the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, the National Archaeological Museum of Athens and the Ancient Iran Museum in Tehran. Winckelmann¿s historicism would encourage the implementation of new ideas and practices related to the meaning and connoisseurship of art and aesthetics in Western Europe within nineteenth-century gallery systems as they began to develop new practices for displaying art in which the singling out of specific cultures within an historic hierarchical context would become prominent. The essay discusses how Winckelmann¿s ideas would inspire a curatorial system and condition of representation of art for the Louvre as the Classical museum paradigm established in the nineteenth-century.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 20 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Polemic Paper from the year 2016 in the subject Theater Studies, Dance, , language: English, abstract: Right from its first performance Ibsen's play has been misunderstood. From early on, 'A Doll's House' until recently, (when it began to be used mostly as a vehicle for feminism and what had been called the 'woman question'), has not always been popular and a number of criticisms and misunderstandings have plagued it. Many had commented on the fact that within the society, during the time the play was set, that women were made to stay home and take care of the children and support their husbands and that it would be a travesty if they left all of this in order to pursue self-fulfillment. Yet more recently, its popularity has seemed to have steadily increased. Today, copiously commensurate with Roland Barthes's 1967 dictum and theory that the author is dead,-(heralding the fact that real fixed 'meaning' itself is dead and that texts are constructed out of precariously grouped citations which therefore allow unlimited and arbitrary open-ended interpretations to proliferate in spite of the author of the work's original intent), today's unfitting feminism has taken this up in further attempts to achieve greater power and freedom. The problem is that although Ibsen stated that he wrote the play to reflect humanist issues, in much of today's culture, unfitting feminist interpretations which aim to rewrite the meaning of the play still abound.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Bachelor Thesis from the year 2000 in the subject Film Science, grade: 2.1, University of Reading (Dept. of Film/Architecture), course: BA Hons. Film and Drama/ Art and Architecture, language: English, abstract: Architectural space and form in Science Fiction Cinema often mirrors the identity of the individual occupying that space on the screen. However, in such films, it does more than just create certain ways of delineating (and connoting) an environment which parallels the characters¿ position within an area guaranteeing and legitimizing their need to be there. Architectural space in Science Fiction cinema is also a space that the audience is invited and allowed to travel through ¿ to participate, to partake in. The audience finds their way through the space, and therefore, are forced to relate and identify with the space created by the architecture during the viewing of the film. This identification process by the audience is central to a proper and legitimate understanding of the film.In this dissertation, I have chosen to analyse three films ¿ all of them Science Fiction. My reason for choosing them was that I was intent upon finding some of the most interesting, thought provoking and effective ways architecture has been used to activate a response within viewers of film: a response, which is entirely justifiable, and extends to an unquestionable belief in the validity of the story taking place on the screen.All three of the films chosen within this study raise specific issues in relation to the significance of ¿architectural space and form in Science Fiction cinemä.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 24 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Scientific Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Communications - Media History, , course: N/A, language: English, abstract: Since the early twentieth century, civilization's obsession with the moving image has helped it to go backwards instead of forwards. Because of the nature of the way moving images are proliferated especially during our present age of digital expansion, the past and the history of the past produce a cultural amnesia which creates a misperception that we are greatly ahead of our past.Much of this is because our continuous fascination with the moving image has undermined and effaced a Modernist reasoning which had been more concerned with searching for an internal depth in objects and things which were reflected in the human being. As a result of our visual thirst for the moving image which takes us away from this, we now live in a situation void of causal reasoning which makes it very easy for very little reason, or difficult, for well-justified reasoning to exist since our thirst and addiction to the moving image has seen a spiritual shift away from the search of internal value and meaning that has been tied to our culture and cultural perceptions.By tracing civilization's obsession with the Classical which it had once used as a 'steadying metaphor' the paper attempts to explain some of the influences that have made us lose our focus on the importance of the internal and offers to explain why we are now more than ever before bereft of a focus for searching for the internal depth that exists within people, objects and things.
