Puppeteer

The Truth is August Wilson in his play Fences gives his audience a unique view into the lives of individuals who lived in a time of great change in America. Into the chaotic household of Troy Maxson, “an illiterate garbage man … who fashions his identity and self-awareness through bold expressive tales”(321). Troy, a prisoner unto himself, fights with confusion and pain as he struggles with the truths of the ever changing world around him. Troy is very similar to the prisoner in Platos’ Allegory

Comedic relief is an aspect films add when there is too much serious, blood, and gore in a movie. It’s to give the audience a break from all the intense scenes. This film was a good example of having this quality inside of it. The scenes kept going back and forth from the cabin to the office with all the people controlling everything. Those characters would crack jokes making light of the situation. The fool was also some comedic relief by bringing attention on how weird the rest of his friends were

prisoners are facing the wall and chained at the back of the cave. They have spent a lifetime in the cave as prisoners, restrained in a position that they cannot move their heads and look around. At the entrance of the cave, there is a fire, which has puppeteers in front holding objects up in order to have their shadows appear on the back wall of the cave. The shadows remain perceived by the prisoners as actual objects. Plato suggests that such individuals always have the perception that there are no realities

news, media, technology, government, religion, school, work, and so many other things that prevent us from knowing the actual truth. We as people are almost like the prisoners locked up and the government, technology, or media play the shadows and puppeteers just like the ones in the cave. They control our lives; we as people need to take action, break free, and leave out of the cave. Once we leave the shadows of the cave and finally come out to see the world as it really is, that is when we reach our

the prisoner being led out, the Giver is the enlightened one, and the Elders are the puppeteers. When focusing on most people in The Giver’s society, it is clear that they have a lack of free will and freedom, just like the chained prisoners. Their whole life is essentially planned out for them, without a choice. This includes what they eat, wear, learn, see, and do in future jobs. By doing this, the puppeteers can control and dictate the whole society as they please. However, just like the chained

Finally, the texture and even the tone had a great deal of contrast in the photograph. Again, there is evidence of a extremely rough background and very rugged working class hands. The rough puppeteer hands represent the government, you could say she uses the rough hands to symbolise masculinity, power and even toughness. Moreover, the other hand is similar, however, there are differences. It represents the citizens; it is feeble

Rene Descartes was a French philosopher, mathematician and scientist. His most important contribution to psychology was his attempt to resolved the controversy about the mind-body problem. The question that Descartes asked himself was “Are mind and body distinct from each other?”. This was a controversy that had been around for years. Many scholars have argued for years on how the mind and body are distinct from each other and have different nature. However, this dualistic position raises further

others project upon them. In Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave” there is a cave where are prisoners are kept who are chained by their feet and neck so they are only be able to stare at a wall in front of them. Behind the prisoners is a fire in order for puppeteers to cast shadows of objects upon the wall. The prisoners perceive the shadows as reality and never see the true nature of the projected images. In “Oedipus the King”, by Sophocles, Oedipus like the prisoners has shadows of reality projected on his

One of the most important characters in William Shakespeare’s beautiful tragedy Othello is the moor’s “ancient”-- Iago. Iago is the wicked mastermind of the play and his cunning plans are what progresses the story. Aside from being the puppeteer, he plays a daring role in his own plans. To act and never reveal, which has a double meaning, is Iago’s philosophy. To act and never reveal can mean to put on a show built up with lies without ever telling the truth. Iago masquerades as an honest man who
