In their article, “Conventional Wisdom Tells… What’s in a Name? That Which We Call a Rose by Any Other Name Would Smell as Sweet,” Cerulo and Ruane claim that names and labels can effectively reshape an individual’s past, present circumstance, or future path. This essay was written for a sociological textbook, which would be primarily viewed by college students taking a sociology course.…
Hi Nadja, I think today it's hard to imagine a time when the Executive Branch was second in command to Congress, but based on what we learned in the last section, that seems to be what the framers had intended. Remember how it was still fresh in their minds that they had emerged from under a monarchy and they intended to never experience that again? Also, that many delegates refused to attend the Constitutional Convention? That was because they had no desire for a centralized government, and as representatives of their state they knew that was not what the people wanted either. Most colonists at the time were perfectly content with the idea of state sovereignty.…
When the competitive gymnast won the title of national champion after all of her hard work, she gave her longtime coach a beatific look. The terrifying behemoth tramped in the direction of the group of tourists as they ran away screaming in horror. In order to persuade her parents to buy her a car, she washed the dishes, walked to school, and took care of her siblings as blandishment.…

Ariel Dorfman is a human rights activist and A professor of literature, he has written many books, and writes for the New York Times, The Washington Post, and many others which would make him a credible source.

The Power of a Name Names are a very powerful thing. Names are not only what other people call us, but they also have the ability to define who we are. They are a representation of the choices that we have made and the personalities we have developed. Whether it is a nickname or a given name, it holds a power that nothing else does.…
Because these philosophers tout reason as the superior intellect, emotions are inconsequential to obtaining insight into the idealized “true…
Popular recording artist, Rihanna, recently dropped a new single titled “Work.” In the song, she incorporates many words from a dialect called Jamaican Patois, an example being her singing “you said me haffi work.” People rushed to Social Media to complain that the song was annoying because she was speaking gibberish, not knowing that “haffi” is an actual word in a different culture. In the article “Do You Speak American?” by Robert MacNeil a similar issue is brought forward to a broad audience of educated, middle-class people. The audience can be derived from a 2007 USA Today report that stated that 71% of readers attended some college with most of them being middle-class people.…
When the belief is true, and the assessment of the situation is correct, and the feeling that goes along is equal to the assessment, then you have an emotion. According to Nozick, labeling what you’re feeling as either an emotion or just a feeling requires the following structure; “emotion fits when it has the above threefold structure of belief, evaluation, and feeling, and moreover when the belief is true, the evaluation is correct, and the feeling is proportionate to the evaluation,” (Nozick, pg. 89). In this chapter, Nozick gives us an example of when a person finds money on the ground and the evaluation of the situation that gives rise to either feelings or emotions. When you find money on the ground, it is normal to feel happy. It would not make sense to weep for joy because you found money.…
Names are an important part of a person's identity when it is a reflection of their own heritage. Tom Rosenberg discusses how his choice of changing his last name as a child and back to the original as an adult emulates a person's identity because names have a significant power. It has helped shaped our identity in the world and in many ways form us into who we are, but without them we will feel a sense of loss. Name, by definition is a word that is commonly used for identification. “Changing My Name after Sixty Years”, Tom Rosenberg described his childhood as he was growing up, he became ashamed of his name and his family’s religious background.…
A person’s identity can be shaped by “[their] name[,] a crucial factor in developing [their] sense of self, and [it] helps propel [them] forward on various paths of life and career” (Hendrick). Our name can give us different stereotypes and characteristics. For example, a person that is named Hercules is perceived to be big and strong, which is not always the case. Names are essential to our identities because they are unique. Unique identities are slowly fading because of technology.…
People find that something such as painting or exercising captures that emotion. But for thousands of years, it’s always been language to give a person the power to express and release the emotions inside of them. It’s the words spoken from the heart that breaks down the walls. X, himself, was found being unable to assert his true piece of mind. He states that “I became increasingly frustrated at not being able to express what I wanted to convey in letters that I wrote” (X).…
“When we know the name of something, it brings us closer to the ground” (Goldberg, 57). Here, I believe Goldberg is trying to apply reasoning and credibility for readers to understand that, when one knows the name of someone or something you will feel closer. Even though Goldberg argues that it’s important to call things by their real names, she only provides us with a few examples and by adding more personal examples and the names of the people around her…
Steven Pinker really reveals how important diction and word choice is when he stated: “The language we use influences the way we think.” Essentially this quotation says that language is a vital element to the readers understanding of tone and the overall context of any literature piece. This statement from Pinker really shows how language affects a reader understanding, the two authors John Muir and William Woodsworth do just that. Muir and Woodsworth both show an interesting bond with nature, but they use different writing styles, diction and word choice to establish their relationship with nature. An element like these is vital so the reader can clearly understand the author's point.…
Names, an instrument of and for power Names are not just terms used to refer someone or something. They play a very deeper and important role in today's society. Along with the names, the process of naming reflects a lot about the community and the individuals. The essay by Sunil Kumar, titled "Naming", taken from the book, "The Present in Delhi's Pasts" while talking about names of people, says that names are used as a tool to classify the people "socially and culturally" (93). A certain degree of power is manifested by the names.…
