    Emma and Clueless

    Transformations often involve familiar themes but reflect those themes in a different context in order to resonate the values and interests of that society. Thus, context dictates form and meaning as well as the values inherent in the texts. Amy Heckerling’s, 20th century American film, Clueless is a transformation of Jane Austen’s conservative Regency England, Emma. The use of different techniques and medium allow Emma’s themes of personal growth, social structure and the role of women in society to be conveyed in a more appropriate form in Clueless.…

    In order to advice Chris and Angela, it is necessary to consider the law relating to misrepresentation. We will analyse the situation to see what laws are applicable and advise Chris and Angela. When Chris and Angela have bought the house, they signed a written contract. In this written contract, the terms have to be contained into. If David’s statements are not in the contract, it is only representations. The statements were not in the written and signed document, so they are not a term. Misrepresentation is a tort, or a civil wrong. It needs not to be intentionally false to create liability.…

    I found this disturbing because as far as I know, she is not a hoe, however she is an attractive black woman and thus being disliked by some, she is called derogatory names. Keep in mind this same young lady listed Kim Kardashian as a “Style Icon,” the IRONY! One is being ripped for being an attractive married black woman and the other well, you know. These comments, tweets and statuses are all mechanisms that make outsiders sense that yes, they can speak on black women in a negative…

    First Lady of the United States and Michelle Obama

    The 101st NAACP Convention was filled with board members and delegates to listen to speakers. One of those speakers was the First Lady, Michelle Obama. Michelle Obama attending the convention gave a speech about her “Let’s Move” campaign. During Obama’s speech she advocates the issue occurring that cannot be ignored “Childhood Obesity.” Obama claims that “1 in 3 children is overweight or obese, putting them at a greater risk of obesity related conditions.” Obesity prevents the children of today from having a normal life. Obesity has lead to many diseases such as diabetes, heart attack, stroke, and even cancer. The speech that Obama gives is persuasive since she is able to influence the public to take action, and form an opinion. She effectively uses rhetoric techniques to motivate her audience. This is shown through her credibility of being the First Lady, statistics of childhood obesity, and the emotional response of the audience,…

    Hillary Clinton Gender

    A 2016 study by Romaniuk looked at the impact that gender had on public discourse as well as the ways the media talked about Hillary Clinton during her failed attempt at winning the 2008 presidential democratic bid. The study examined the words, and the connotations of those words, used to describe her, such as her laugh being commonly described as a “cackle” by the media. This study is clearly relevant as Hillary Clinton is the topic of our study in the now 2016 presidential campaign, and her gender is still a point of contention in public discourse today, eight years…

    Ellen DeGeneres

    At one time, hundreds of companies and families as well as Republicans were submitting briefs urging the 9 judges to allow gay people to marry. Ellen displayed her courage when she stood up for her beliefs by making her homosexuality public despite the odds stacked against her if she did so. She even wrote a letter to the Supreme Court to appeal to them to support gay rights and marriage. In her letter, she wrote “I hope the Supreme Court will do the right thing, and let everyone enjoy the same rights. It’s going to help keep families together and make kids feel better about who they are.” This in turn opened doors for many individuals to come out and express their true selves.…
