Feminist philosophy of science and its related epistemology, concerns scientific inquiry and the extent to which theories and knowledge are influenced and shaped by bias within the scientific community, and the means to rectify this. There are three main distinctions of feminist philosophy of science; empiricism, standpoint theory, and postmodernism. I am to be comparing and contrasting two of the three; namely feminist standpoint theory and postmodernism. Both of these distinctions are…

An artist’s world experience in life can be a major influence on how they create and develop their artworks.

Frida Kahlo's artwork 'The Miscarriage' made in 1932 displays Kahlo's experience…

I walked into the lobby, intending to ask a museum attendant on the estimated wait time in line. After hearing the line was going to be a three hour wait, we continued our conversation and started bonding over Yayoi Kusama’s work, especially her Infinity Mirrored Room. Unexpectedly, the museum attendant decided to pull a few strings and gave me direct access to the museum, skipping the line altogether! My experience was already off to a good start, and I immediately went up the escalator to…

For example, the stranger from "Where Is Here?" showing the son the geometrical design. The main takeaway from the design was the element of infinity. The interpretation of the symbol is left to the reader to decipher and infer what the significance of it is. Another instance in which atypical events occur is in "Windigo" when the Windigo is coming to the child. The reader is given no context…

Zeno's Paradox Introduction and Rationale: The Zeno Paradoxes are a set of Paradoxes that are set up by the Greek Mathematician Zeno of Elea. Zeno is a mathematician who was believed to have been born even before Socrates (who was born on 469 BC). His Birthplace is in Italy. The word 'Paradox' is a statement that apparently opposes itself (in terms of meaning), but may be still true(by thinking in terms of Mathematics and it's methods). Thus it might be invalid most of times but however it…

1800s, no one could have predicted that a denim storm blown up from Levi-Strauss would rip through the global fashion industry and have kept the standing room for more than a century ahead. In 1850, a news fanaticized the public and brought the infinity hope as well as fantasy. Miles and miles of gold mines were discovered in the west regions of America. Bavarian- born Levis rushed for the unfrequented and bleak westward, like others who thirst for being incredibly wealthy immediately. But…

I am not just myself. I am not just one among the masses, one in a sea of seven billion, one in an infinity of complexity—far from it. I am a library, containing everything, indeed everything, that has touched my life, no matter how small and trivial or how big and traumatic. I am salvation. Physical, spiritual, mental salvation I bring. The feeling of duty and responsibility that brands a savior rides for free in the vehicle I drive on my journey. I am a leader. I must be the overprotective…

The cosmological argument is one theory for the existence of God; it is based upon the existence of a unique being, which is commonly referred to as God. This based upon facts regarding causation, contingency, motion, change and finitude relative to the processes within the universe. In this essay I am going to describe the arguments of Aristotle, one of the founders of this argument and Leibniz, who argues for the principle of sufficient reason; a theory that goes hand in hand with the…

nature have, historically, positioned the natural world as a site of romanticism, idealised as an unchanging realm. It is noted that the famed paintings by the romantic landscape painter J. M. W. Turner ‘approached nearer to the representation of the infinity of Nature than all that have gone before him.’ However, nature is no longer seen as infinite; it is ephemeral, finite, a depleting resource. The BP Statistical Review of World Energy measured only enough oil to last for the next 46.2 years,…
