Fahrenheit 9/11 Analysis
I'm not quite sure what I am supposed to do with these explorations, except for that they should be written on out of class material. I guess then that I will try to explore some more modern radical dramas. When I first thought of that question, nothing came to my mind. I began to think that radical drama was as thing of the past. Then I realized that there's plenty of it out and much of it I have even seen. One of the clearest and most recent examples of radical drama, which I felt dumb for not remembering, would have to be Fahrenheit 9/11. Although I have not seen this movie, I do know that the maker of that flim, Michael Moore, created it with the intentions of getting George. W. Bush out of the office at the end of his first term. If

    911 Theories

    There are many different 9/11 conspiracy theories that disagree with the widely accepted account that the September 11 attacks were committed solely by al-Qaeda. In a 2008 global poll of 16,063 people in 17 countries, majorities in only nine countries believe al Qaeda was behind the attacks. 46% of those surveyed believed al-Qaeda was responsible for the attacks, 15% believed the U.S. government was responsible, 7% believed Israel was and another 7% believed some other perpetrator, other than al Qaeda, was responsible. The most popular of all conspiracy theories is that the collapse of the Twin Towers and World Trade Center were the result of a controlled demolition rather than structural failure due to fire. Another pretty popular belief is that the Pentagon was hit by a missile launched by elements from inside the U.S. government or that a commercial airliner was allowed to do so because of the American military.…

    9/11 Social Media Analysis

    This essay examines online representations of 9/11 within the context of contemporary cultures of public mourning and memorialization. Based on the study of visual as well as textual material from 9/11 memorial websites, this essay argues that such online representations effect a spatial and temporal telescoping of the event by calling upon a global audience to participate in the collective acts of recollecting, archiving and mourning the loss that occurred at the epicentre, Ground Zero. It further argues that the constant circulation of ‘signs’ from the actual site of the event in the ‘virtual’ world turns 9/11 into a chronotope and unites the users into an emotionally responsive, affective community of…

    My Mother Said I Never Should by Charlotte Keatly: Review

    Max Stafford-Clark is one of the most influential directors to embrace British Theatre in the past 40 years. Nearly every play Max has directed is political, including themes such as Marxism (like Brecht), socialism, feminism, poverty and many more political themes. Max says he chooses to direct plays like this because “I am socially curious, and I take theatre as tool of investigating society” from his book Letter’s to George, which alone with Taking Stock, has documented his directing experiences of theatre and his life.…

    9/11: The Victorian Era

    In the Victorian Era, it was all about man and man only. The man was the bread winner, the man was the one who made decisions, and the man was in charge of basically everything. The female, however, was the considered angel of the household. She followed the rules and never left the house. She had to stay in the house and provide a comforting home by cooking food, cleaning, and taking care of the kids. The Victorian Era was described as women being in the outer circle and men being in the inner circle. Women had no rights. The Id, Superego, and Ego play an important role in this era. Let us look at the women's perspective. The superego would be the society with the rules that women were inferior to men and they didn't know…

    Fahrenheit 9/11 Analysis

    The movie “Fahrenheit 9/11” by Michael Moore is based off the events before during and after 9/11. One of the biggest terrorist attacks America has seen and brought legislations such as the patriot act into effect single handily. On September 11, 2001 two planes were hijacked and crashed into the twin towers resulting in the deaths of thousands of Americans. This incident left a scar in the hearts of many Americans. The person who has taken a lot of the blame for this incident was the reigning president at the time, President George W. Bush. Fahrenheit 9/11 portrays Bush as one of the worst presidents America has seen due to the following reasons: he made many poor decisions during his presidency, a lot of his decisions were to personally benefit…
