ellauri058.html on line 785: VII STRATO Loose girls lose their grip. They wear cheap scent. Their kisses aren’t sincere or innocent. Sweet smut is one thing they’re no good at talking. Their looks are sly. The worst is a bluestocking. Moreover, fundamentally they’re cold; They’ve nothing for a groping hand to hold.
ellauri069.html on line 40: Postmodernism is the Swiss Army knife of critical concepts. It’s definitionally overloaded, and it can do almost any job you need done. This is partly because, like many terms that begin with “post,” it is fundamentally ambidextrous. Postmodernism can mean, “We’re all modernists now. Modernism has won.” Or it can mean, “No one can be a modernist anymore. Modernism is over.” People who use “postmodernism” in the first, “mission accomplished,” sense believe that modernism—the art and literature associated with figures like Picasso and Joyce—changed the game completely, and that everyone is still working through the consequences. Modernism is the song that never ends. Being postmodernist just means that we can never be pre-modernist again. People who use it in the second sense, as the epitaph for modernism, think that, somewhere along the line, there was a break with the assumptions, practices, and ambitions of modernist art and literature, and that everyone since then is (or ought to be) on to something very different. Being postmodernist means that we can never be modernist again.
ellauri080.html on line 437: In Jungian typology, the original ‘unity’ of human consciousness is first divided into two poles of attitude: extraversion and introversion. These represent two fundamentally distinct yet complementary relationships between inner and outer reality. Extraversion is characterized bya flow of energy and interest from the subject to the object, from the inner to the outer. Identification with the outer gives meaning to the inner. Introversion is completely the opposite. It is characterized by a flow of energy and interest from the object to the subject, from the outer to the inner.
ellauri102.html on line 479: The Problem: During the time the advert was released, there were many protests and riots taking place in America over the #BlackLivesMatter campaign. The ad took a lot of “inspiration” from these protests and fundamentally undermined the whole point of the protests. In addition to this, the ad also received a lot of criticism for how Pepsi was responsible for “saving the day.”
ellauri106.html on line 507: Roth’s plots are masked by a fundamentally conservative denial of ideology. They metaphorize the particular crises of these particular men into transcendent markers of the human condition and, in doing so, once again reinforce the “romance” of "modernization." (Whazat? Lue alempaa. Se tarkottaa talousliberalismia.)
ellauri151.html on line 653: Luther puts this clearly: “The spirit consists in the use, not the object”. Luther reached his theological breakthrough when he realized that theological language consists fundamentally of speech acts and linguistic action. Augustinuxen show-and-tell semantiikka ei kata mysteerien pragmatiikkaa: ei kuivassa näkkärissä ole sielua, vaan se pujahtaa siihen joteskin kun näkki pannaan kielelle ja sanotaan oikeat taikasanat. Hizi empä arvannut poikasena kielitieteen kurssilla miten läheltä Luther siinä liippasi, hyvä ettei tukka heilahtanut.
ellauri161.html on line 584: A lady critic: His approach to comedy and my ability to enjoy his work as a director began to diverge when he had a sequence about bailouts and crony capitalism tacked on to another otherwise funny film. That was tasteless. The problem was McKay seemed to find entertainment and real-world issues to be fundamentally separate, deploying one in hopes of getting eyes on the other. While all we droopy lips know that they are part of one and the same entertainment scene!
ellauri196.html on line 622: Its fundamentally conservative "pure and simple" approach limited the AFL to matters pertaining to working conditions and rates of pay, relegating political goals to its allies in the political sphere. The Federation favored pursuit of workers' immediate demands rather than challenging the property rights of owners, and took a pragmatic view of politics which favored tactical support for particular politicians over formation of a party devoted to workers' interests. The AFL's leadership believed the expansion of the capitalist system was seen as the path to betterment of labor, an orientation making it possible for the AFL to present itself as what one historian has called "the conservative alternative to working class radicalism."
ellauri270.html on line 415: Jackson examines the basics of human nature in “The Lottery,” asking whether or not all humans are capable of violence and cruelty, and exploring how those natural inclinations can be masked, directed, or emphasized by the structure of society. Philosophers throughout the ages have similarly questioned the basic structure of human character: are humans fundamentally good or evil? Without rules and laws, how would we behave towards one another? Are we similar to animals in….. read analysis of Human Nature.
ellauri384.html on line 214: For me, the reason is because those things are fundamentally hard to believe. If I told you that I had a unicorn friend named Gary, and that Gary had created the universe, and that he was my own personal special friend, and Gary loved me, and Gary was going to take me and everybody I care about to a magic kingdom in the clouds called “Sallbach” where everybody gets a flying pony, but if you don’t love Gary and accept him as your best, most special friend, then he’s going to send you to a place called “Moplach” where you will be drowned in molasses, not only would have have a hard time believing in Sallbach and Moplach…
xxx/ellauri027.html on line 1060: Paphos seminar remains fundamentally a project of Western orientation, with a strong emphasis on reasoning and language. If (to use a deliberately stereotypical example) a no-nonsense middle-aged male engineer comes to the seminar, as often happens, I find it important that he does not find anything in the seminar suspicious even in retrospect. Nobody should be lured into doing something he or she might find embarrassing afterwards.

xxx/ellauri136.html on line 114: I laughed at the person who claimed that liberals were literate and educated. That’s good, if the definition of “literate” and “educated” is “they read what they want to see” and “learn nonsense.” Say what you will, the Harry Potter universe is fundamentally flawed, and I can see why liberals like it so much:
xxx/ellauri168.html on line 264: According to the mainstream metaphysical view of physicalism, reality is fundamentally constituted by physical stuff outside and independent of mind. Mental states, in turn, should be explainable in terms of the parameters of physical processes in the brain.
xxx/ellauri215.html on line 372: "Point number three (ok, almost done) is the talk about the Finlandization of Ukraine, which means that Ukraine has to compromise on their values, security and basic existence in order to achieve peace. I fundamentally disagree with this thesis because every independent and sovereign state should have the freedom to choose whose club it wants to join and which cola to buy.
xxx/ellauri380.html on line 442: But in Solzhenitsyn's case, it's not racial! It has nothing to do with blood. He's certainly not a racist; the question is fundamentally religious and cultural. He bears some resemblance to Dostoyevsky, who was a fervent Christian and patriot and a rabid anti-Semite. Solzhenitsyn is unquestionably in the grip of the Russian extreme right's view of the Revolution, which is that it was the doing of Jews.
