Analysis Of Body Ritual Is Outstanding By Horace Miner

When studying the human body, there are seven organizational approaches. Each approach studies the body in a different yet unique way and is used in the health care field. The approaches consist of; body planes and directions, body cavities, quadrants and regions, anatomy and physiology, microscopic and macroscopic, body systems and medical specialties.

This is shown through a blend of sickening and tranquil imagery as well as parallel structure. For instance, when describing the strange fruit and its setting, the narrator describes “[A] Pastoral scene of the gallant South, The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth” (5-6). The two scenes presented to the reader are immensely contrasting, to the point that it is unsettling. However, the sentence’s structure makes it seem as if such atrocities are an element of what makes the South so gallant and peaceful, further hinting at the South’s acceptance of prejudice as part of its culture. In continuation with the description of the fruit, the author describes it as being “for the crows to pluck, for the rain to gather, for the wind to suck, for the sun to rot, for the tree to drop” (9-11). The parallel structure of the fruit being incessantly acted upon by another force is heavily repeated throughout the third stanza. Not only does this give the tone that this process has been occurring long enough to the point of becoming almost somewhat of a tradition, but it also shows the fruit, the person, being bruised over and over again until it becomes absolutely unprofitable. People may be unwilling to help because of the benefits and pride that comes with being able to put

In order to fulfill an individual’s constitutional right to a trial overseen by a jury of his or her peers, the process of juror selection is repeated every day in courtrooms around the country. The process is not only vital to the American justice system as a whole; for the prospective juror it is also a defining feature of their U.S. citizenship. Juror selection and the accompanying voir dire, when examined for more than its procedural parts, reveals itself to be more complex than a set of ordinary practices. The frameworks established by Emile Durkheim, Arnold Van Gennep, and Victor Turner help to separate the ritual elements present in jury duty from aspects that are more representative of “technological routine”.

“Rites of passage” is a term often used in anthropology to refer to specific ceremonies that mark a personal or collective change in the identity of a person. “The term rite of passage was first used in anthropology to encapsulate rituals that symbolize the transition of an individual or a group from one status to another, or to denote the passage of calendrical time”. (Tzanelli, 2010) Rites of passage have been a major part of almost all educational, social and spiritual groups. They have been observed immensely in native tribal-traditional societies, which account for ninety nine percent of human history. All around the world, societies implement unique rituals and events to signify a transition of a person from one social identity to another. (Frey, 2013). Rites of passage ceremonies and rituals take place throughout an individual’s whole life cycle starting

Mummies are one of the most prevalent physiognomies of the ancient Egyptian culture. As one questions the motives of body preservation, otherwise known as mummification, the enigmatic myth of the afterlife is brought in as the center focus; requiring one to dig deeper within the civilization, traditions and beliefs of the culture to truly comprehend its deeper purposes. While many world cultures have concentrated the most on the creation myths and how things came to be but paid less attention to death, the ancient Egyptians were more enthralled with death. Death was a key episode, a momentary interlude and a progression filled with many rituals that led to a newer life. The afterlife. Unlike the Greeks who were more engrossed

To become ceremonial practicioner, in this case for a women, is a long and time consuming process. Not only does it take up to fourty-five years to learn the ins and outs of being a ceremonial practicioner, but women also face the challenge of a barrier to become one. These barriers are characterized into three sections: taboos, biological concerns and oral traditions.

When it comes to the topic of sacred rituals, my perception of this topic discussed in the chapter five of our text prior to taking this course was I knew that this was simply what takes place in religion in terms of activities, the things people preform all the time for specific reasons. These would be activities that are connected to an important date such as a religious holiday or a time frame of the day such as no eating after 6pm or simply a certain place such as a temple or church that requires particular actions to be performed all the time in this location. Rituals are in our daily lives as well, as we do things for specific reasons all the time, for instance when I wake up every morning before I do anything else I grab a water bottle

From my understanding, a ritual is something that occurs more than once and has a meaning behind it. For example, a prayer. A more basic example could be brushing your teeth every morning after you wake up. Rituals are used both by humans and animals. Animals often have mating rituals. Humans have been performing rituals since the earliest of times for a variety of reasons. In the Stone Age, rituals could have been used to communicate with gods or dead ancestors. They could also have been used to mark different times of the year. For example, the different seasons. Rituals were a form of symbolic activity. Some rituals even involved masks or other carvings. Perhaps there was even a ritual for making a carving.

Readers are introduced to a “bonsai tree in the attractive pot” in the first two lines. Here metaphor is established. The bonsai tree is being compared to the average woman. Like a bonsai tree, the average woman can become a distinguished figure and meet her full potential. For fear that the tree were to grow out of its pot, it may be alienated, it remains confined to its pot. A woman may feel inclined to stick to societal expectations for fear of being detached from others. Consequently, inside the pot, no woman or bonsai tree can grow to their fullest potential. Metaphorical use is also shown as Piercey compares the gardener to society. Continuously, society tries to mold women into being “domestic and weak.” The gardener is shown doing this as he “carefully prunes” and “whittles back the branches.” He is only declining the progression of the bonsai tree as he creates his own vision for it. In the attempt to be “attractive,” the potential of the tree is taken and it continues to watch their branches be pruned and whittled away. Like this tree, women face the struggle to succeed in life while having societal inequities pinned on their

Initiation rituals is a form of a rites of passage that symbolically marks the stages in the lives of males or females that portray the alteration from childhood to adult hood. (Peoples and Bailey, Pg. 334).
