Statutory interpretation is process of interpreting statutes by the judges. The definition of statutes have had very specific words but indeed the judges would still need the statutory interpretation to help them.

governments operations but also how these literal words written down are to be read. This very strict and literal interpretation of the Constitution is the way the Constitution had always been interpreted by Justices, which is why this method is often referred to as Originalist Interpretation. However, within the last century, justices have strayed from this method of interpretation and started to read between the lines of the Constitution and view it as a “living document” that could be interpreted

The interpretation of texts varies from person to person. Each reader approaches a piece of writing with their own personal biases. These biases, based on factors such as societal influences or personal upbringing can have an effect on how readers assign meaning to words and actions. These differences in interpretation are one of the explanations of how a religious group can have so many different religions branching out from it despite following the same religious text.

b) Evaluate ancient and modern images and interpretations of Cleopatra VII Images and interpretations of a person can change over time. Such movement is paralleled with changes in opinion and morals throughout generations. Cleopatra the seventh is subject to this fluctuation. Ancient images and interpretations differ greatly to the impression left today merely by her name. Chris Dumasis, a modern day historian amplifies this theory in ‘Interpretations of Cleopatra’. She argues, “women have been

Barnes says, “This command, though contrary to Persian customs, is not out of harmony with the character of Xerxes;

Christianity, who preached against the law and Israel” (pp. 18, 19).

"Without a Hand to Hold" Analysis and Interpretation of "The Preacher Ruminates: Behind the Sermon" Gwendolyn Brooks' "The Preacher Ruminates: Behind the Sermon" gives an eerie look into a minister's mind.
