counterintuitive argument that understandings of human are produced through inaccurate representations. Butler believes that “For representation to convey the human, then, representation must not only fail, but it must show its failure”(Precariousness 144). Use of the word failure in this sentence somewhat misleads the reader. In this instance representations that “fail” could be said to be successes. Butler believes that “there is something unrepresentable that we nevertheless seek to represent, and that

Throughout the film ¨Gone with the Wind¨, Scarlett and Rhett´s relationship is convoluted. Their relationship all together was just toxic. First of all, there are mixed feelings involved due to Scarlettś indecisiveness, one moment she is all about having a healthy relationship with Rhett and is convinced she is over Ashley, but later on she is found having the same feelings for him. Later on, at one point, Rhett finally asks Scarlett to marry him and she says yes, but after their first child she

To further strengthen Iris Marion Young and Pamela Fishman’s ideas regarding the tendency of most men to interrupt women during verbal discussions, I conducted a week-long study (from December 9 to December 14, 2013) in my six other classes (namely Theology 121, Leadership and Strategies 10, Economics 102, Accounting 30, Filipino 14, and Law 22), which consist of mixed male and female pupils. Before starting the experiment, I considered a few questions that I wanted to answer: Would males recite

Shannan Rain Mccaffrey is going to be the next Paco. But, who exactly is this prodigy? Well, Shannan was born in Long Beach, California on April 28,2000 with her twin sister Phoebe. She is named Shannan because her mother, since middle school wanted a girl to be named that. Life at home as a child was pretty mundane and Mccaffrey said that she “couldn’t really remember much of her childhood.” School though was a another matter. Throughout her academic life up until a few years ago, her classmates

gender (woman/man), and sexuality (homo/hetero) fail to provide imperative space in self-exploration and work to suppress the potentialities within these arenas. By developing upon examples in The Argonauts through engaging with the ideas of Judith Butler in Gender Trouble and Performative Acts and Gender Constitution and Eve Sedgwick in The Epistemology of the Closet, these binaries may be revealed as a construction that conceals the operations of oppression within contemporary American culture. After

Tennessee decides to teach the history of human life, it is not well received. In March 1925 a law is passed in Tennessee named the “Butler Act,” which prohibited teachers from teaching about evolution in any state funded school. John Scopes, a teacher in the small town of Dayton, Tennessee, taught a lesson to his students about evolution months after the state passed the Butler Act. Although the Scopes Trial provided a precedent for the clash of traditionalistic and modernistic thinking it created a paradigm

Simone de Beauvoir asserts that “one is not born, but, rather, becomes a woman (Bailey, Alison, and Cuomo 97).” In this analytical paper, I will attempt to relate to this to my “becoming a man,” as well as comparing and contrasting this claim with other feminist philosophers’ ideas.

From the perspective of critical legal thinkers, Butler’s
