Overview- "On Photography"

  Overview of “ON PHOTOGRAPHY” By Susan Sontag The essay begins with specificity and specialties' that photography holds. Photography means putting oneself into certain relations to the world that feel like knowledge and more like power. They are miniatures of reality that anyone can make or acquire. Chris Marker’s film, Si j’avais quatre dromadaires, is an in-depth glance into the still photographs, how they create an impact in visual legibility and emotional impact. Another major aspect that comes with photographs is its ability to furnish evidence. It provides very specific proof of something that happened. The picture may distort; but there is always a presumption that something exists, or doesn't exist, which is like what is in the picture.  From 1840, photography got its golden age in which the world was considered a set of potential photographs. From the beginning photograph was ...

1.     Differentiate  between probability and possibility ? Probabilistic thinking is essentially trying to estimate, using some tools of math and logic, the likelihood of any specific outcome coming to pass. ... In a world where each moment is determined by an infinitely complex set of factors, probabilistic thinking helps us identify the most likely outcomes. Probability theory is often considered to be a mathematical subject, with a well-developed and involved literature concerning the probabilistic behavior of various systems (see Feller, 1968), but it is also a philosophical subject – where the focus is the exact meaning of the concept of probability and the ways in which it relates to the fundamental aspects of our reasoning. The word probability means occurrence in random. This is mostly used in statistics to find the probability of something that occurs in random. The word possibility means predicting if something can happen or not. That is the most common differe...

Riviere's Womanliness as a Masquerade

  Riviere's Womanliness as a Masquerade Joan Riviere was a British psychologist, a close friend, and colleague of Melanie Klein. She wrote her own highly influential papers on female sexuality and other topics, particularly Womanliness as a Masquerade (1929). In this paper, she deeply evaluates an area of sexual development in which femininity can be a mask used to hide rivalry with and hatred of men. Here, she explores fraudulent femininity in some women, not overtly homosexual but not entirely heterosexual. In this paper, she is trying to analyse the roots of this homosexual development in women. Riviere's gives the idea that women who wish for masculinity may put on a mask of Womanliness to get free from anxiety and the retribution feared by men. She provides a clear explanation of this through a case study to support this claim: she says that Womanliness is assumed and worn as a mask both to hide the possession of masculinity and to avert the counterattack expected if ...
 SONG POV I selected the poem- My Ancestors by Omprakash Valmiki The cry of the victims, Who has a painful petition, Over the generations!! The selfish hearts of the powerful, That always come to exploit, The weak and helpless outcast, No justice no truth; No voice for the voiceless. Outcaste- a name to be out casted The poor soundless hearts, Never be lost in the darkness, We are there with you... To read the needs of your life, To stay with you!!!
 LIMERICK There was a girl named Rose Rose was as beautiful as a rose One day a beggar came to her asking some food Her face flushed as her heart turned wood All that was because her heart was not as a rose
