Mark Doty’s essay, “Artificial,” addresses a topic that many writers have pondered over the centuries: technology. People have often argued that the very idea of technology inherently contradicts nature and that which is “natural,” but Doty takes a different approach when discussing the relationship between these two. He references several ideas central to William Blake’s works, namely Songs of Innocence and of Experience and The Marriage of Heaven and Hell. From these works, Doty infers Blake’s

school, coupled with the rise in technology, has led to a bitter rivalry. The use of technology continues to catapult the world into a new age while hopelessly dragging along the skeptics that resist the change. Innovation in education continues to prove essential in keeping students engaged and attentive. When educators employ the true benefits of technology it proves to be highly effective in furthering their ability to teach.

To what extent is it acceptable for mechanics and technology to control the life of society? To take over the vulnerable minds of the youth?

As the story progresses, the effects of technology on modern society become more prevalent and it becomes more apparent that a new, peculiar side is surfacing from the children, suggesting that the mechanics in the house are threatening their

also safe to assume that as technology advances, so does human intelligence as humans are the ones that created such state-of-the-art automation. But unfortunately, the disconsolate truth is that this is an inaccurate assumption for a generation known as the “Dumbest Generation” (those under the age of 30).

We must examine literature and take in what advice it has for us. We must not rely on technology the way we do and learn to experience the world for ourselves. The first task I completed was making a list of the luxuries and necessities in my life. Deciding where to place certain items was very challenging. I was forced to look deeper into

Due to modern technology, such as computers, game consoles, tablets and smartphones, today's world for children is very different than it was for their parents. Is this a good thing, or is it bad? While there are good and legitimate arguments on each side as to whether the use of technology by children is positive or negative, most should conclude that when used in moderation and with supervision, technology's effect on young children is one we should ultimately be thankful for because it has opened

Metaphor, the comparison of two entities, is quite evident throughout Ishirō Honda 1962 movie King Kong vs. Godzilla. Incorporating two of the most iconic monsters within cinematic history, Honda integrated these monsters to represent his message showing how Japan was shifting from their traditional society towards a society that was technologically advanced.

of the technology their children are using? Children are learning to use technology at a younger age, and the younger they are the more adaptable their mind is. Technology forms the growing mind, but parents should be aware of what their child's mind is growing too.
