During the 1860s, there were new, different streams of thoughts that were emerging. In Fathers and Sons, Bazarov was a nihilist, and represented the younger generation who believed in Bazarovism. Turgenev’s description of Bazarov and his attempts to change Nikolai Petrovich Kirsanov, a Romantic, reveals what Turgenev thought toward nihilists. Bazarov’s actions and thoughts mirror the thoughts of those young scholars during the 1860s. Throughout his novel, Turgenev’s portrayal of Bazarov create a

“What is not thought by all men cannot be true” is the common belief in the totalitarian world of Anthem (73). In this post-apocalyptic and altruistic society people can only exists through the service to their brothers, and individual thoughts and actions are shunned upon. Equality 2-72521 is brilliant, using technologies he found from before the “great rebirth” to formulate new conclusions about the virtually unexplored world of his time. With individualism shunned, personal thought is prohibited

Savannah, you had expressed in your discussion post that thought is responsible for most of the suffering we experience. I had a different take on it, and felt that thought empowers us to eliminate suffering. In the case of Jim Carey's video his thought created the entertainment that he was providing to his relatives in the living room. Even thought they all knew that there was suffering going on in the other room. I, believe his thoughts provided a way to get away from the grieving, and creating

in Week 1? My ideas and thoughts have changed a lot since day one of class and opening “The Rulebook for Arguments”. The first idea that changed, there are real instructions and guidance to an argument or debate. Speaking loud, talking with words and little substance does not assist in persuasion.

In the text it states,"It's not just the woman that died," said Montag. "Last night I thought about all the kerosene I've used in the past ten years. And I thought about books. And for the first time I realized that a man was

want the approval of others are often blinded from their own opinion and can begin to change their thoughts and personal preferences. Even though some people chose to be shaped by society, others are forced to have that influence because they were limited to only one opinion. This is true for Huck in the book The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn on the topic of slavery. When he was growing up the thought of slaves being on a lower level was pounded into his head, so he knew no other way. “I see it warn’t

David Hume’s statement that the most lively thought is still inferior to the dullest sensation, is a rather divisive, as there are individuals who agree with the statement in question and those who disagree. In order to analyse such statement thoroughly it is crucial to elaborate on concepts such as sensations and impressions and ideas, as well as Hume’s theory of knowledge. David Hume while a sceptic, he was also (Fisher 2011, :527–528) well known for his empiricist, naturalist approach to philosophy

successfully men can be imposed on, even impose on themselves” (Thoreau 965). The government does more than just impose on us. It imposes on our thoughts, our ideas and treats us unjustly. We have a government in order to make sure that the people are equal and treated justly, but that is not what the government is doing. It is putting their own ideas and thoughts into our heads.

The word idea can be defined as ‘a thought or suggestion as to a possible course of action,’ but an idea is much more powerful than its definition states. An idea has unlimited potential if bore to a courageous spirit. The average human brain is capable of generating anywhere from 15,000 to 50,000 ideas daily. In Bernard Beckett 's Genesis, Art revolves around a society dictated by intelligence. The complexity of their thoughts is the main structure of daily life. Based on their academic ability
