Does anyone know any colleges that are strong in humanities/ writing?

answers1: Well, any liberal arts college will be good for the
humanities/the arts. here are just some from different regions, I'm
not sure where you want to go just yet. Yale, Columbia, Boston
College, Emory, Birmingham Southern, UCLA, Rhodes College, University
of Chicago, Stanford, USC, Duke, Georgetown, and possibly Washington
University. just check out the school's website, and if you still are
undecided, go to collegeboard.com for more info and a list of more
schools.

if you are the president of world,what would you do for the humanities?

answers1: Nothing. Because government is the root of all evil and
every problem that exist in this world right now. Religion is a close
second so that may have to go. Abolish the UN and send all its members
to the places they ****** over for crimes against humanity. <br>
<br>
Peoples better sides come out when there not ruled over.
answers2: what would i do for humanities? hmmm. for humanity i would
end all war treat global trade as that. basically run it like it
should be run i dont feel like going into detail.
answers3: Abolish organized religion.

dad, me and my kids had to do. You want something out of live - go
after it - don't hang around for the handout. It is never enough!
<br>

answers6: enslave all the brown people
answers7: Give up my seat for a man that can really do the job.

how humanities important in your lives?

answers1: James B. Conant, the founding president of the University of
Chicago put it like this: "Humanities education is not for making a
living; it is for making a life." <br>
<br>
Sad to say, this concept is in danger of getting lost now that
everyone is desperate to get a college degree that will qualify them
for a job. Of course that is important, but so is learning something
about how we got to where we are now (history), what people in the
past have said about life (literature) and how else they expressed
themselves (music, visual arts, sculpture.) <br>
<br>
These studies may not guarantee anyone a job, but without them, our
lives are sadly impoverished. <br>
<br>
You might guess that I was a humanities major in college; English
Literature and Writing with a minor in Psychology. <br>
<br>
Oddly enough, I managed to get a job as a newspaper reporter, from
which I retired a couple of decades ago. It definitely paid the
mortgage -- also bought the food, fed the kids, and kept us in a
reasonably decent lifestyle.

What are some good art schools?

answers1: Pratt, RISD, School of Arts Chicago, California Institute of Arts
answers2: I think I just answered your question about the online
programs at Academy of Art University, but wanted to answer here as
well. <br>
<br>
Academy of Art University is a great school to go to for Photography.
I studied it there and learned a lot! Since all of their instructors
are industry experts, I was able to get a lot of valuable information,
while preparing for success in life after college. Once I graduated, I
landed a great job. Some of my friends who have graduated from there
have also gone on to work for big-name companies. You can see a list
of companies that hire Academy grads by visiting
http://www.academyart.edu/photography-school/index.html. <br>
<br>
The online classes are unlike any others in the world. You can see
demonstrations of online classes here:
http://media.academyart.edu/online/. That will give you an idea of
whether or not that format works for you.

is graffiti art or vandalism?

answers1: I think it depends on the quality and content of the
graffiti. There are some amazing artists who choose to use their
talents in the wrong place. However, I think it can be wonderful art,
and still be vandalism. So, both, I guess.
answers2: It depends on what the person is expressing, in my opinion. <br>
If someone is making a political statement, or is painting a mural or
whatever, then it's art. <br>
However, if a person paints "penis" in really big letters on an
overpass (as is usually the case), then I don't consider it art at
all. <br>
The same goes for gang signs. <br>
I used to have one painted on a railroad sign close to where I lived
when I was little, and it scared me to death knowing that that was
going on so close to where I lived.
answers3: It's vandalism if you don't do it on your own property. It's
art if you do it where you're allowed to.
answers4: Some of it is interesting, but a lot of it is silly, like a
big heart with "Bobbie loves Billie Sue" written on the inside. Some
graffiti (you must know this) conceals coded information from one gang
to another. This type of graffiti is a public menace.
answers5: Graffiti is a Art but when it is expressed on
buildings/freeways/fences/schools- homes/ is is VANDILISM FOR
SURE........and Punishable by law!!! <br>
<br>
<br>
Sounds Like there is a Artist in you trying to get out...Take some art
classes - what most artists use is a CANVAS.....these are cheap to
buy go to a arts and crafts store they come in different sizes and
spray away your art style on this canvas ..you could start a new
trend and have sidewalk showings like at arts and craft fairs...I am
sure you are not the only one who enjoys this Art style..I have seen
some very beautiful Graffiti and some pretty crappy ones.Some cities
allow a artist to use a side of a building and actually commission/pay
you for your art !! <br>
<br>
Dont be a CRIMINAL ARTIST/VANDAL .....BE A REAL ARTIST do it
right...If you dont then someone else will come and spray right over
your graffitti creating a ugly graffiti ...just so you know....when
Vandals Graffiti neighborhoods the property values go down and
most people look at these areas as High crime neighborhoods...and want
to more or not buy a home there. <br>
<br>

answers6: I say both. But I think graffiti makes the buildings
colorful otherwise they are kinda dull. But I don't like graffiti that
is just crayola markers, Spraypaint looks way better.
answers7: Art is a broad topic and graffiti could be considered art. <br>
<br>
The important thing, even if it is art, it is vandalism, unless it is
on your own property or with permission of the property owner.
answers8: i no what u mean i think its really pretty too. but it is
vandalism. usually the graffiti are showing gang signs. if only they
used there art for good.
answers9: When trying to define what we see, we often want to attach a
label to something in order to give it substance. Unfortunately,
labels aren't always accurate. On the street a passer-by could
identify graffiti as urban filth or as simple vandalism. Others might
argue that graffiti enhances the urban landscape and provides telling
depictions of society. These people often compare graffiti with
gallery art. <br>

answers10: Both is the graffiti is on public property. <br>
It's art if it's not against the law.
answers11: graffiti can be vandalism when used in a negative way...of
course it is an art.

how did cameras effect art?

answers1: They added to the ways people can produce art.
answers2: "They also slowed down the growth of painting." <br>
<br>
i have to disagree...if anything it did the opposite. photography
caused painters to experiment more. modern art started around the
same time as people were taking photographs. that's not a coincidence.
answers3: They made up a whole new way to make art, by photography and
filming. <br>
They also slowed down the growth of painting. <br>

Liberal Arts College?

answers1: Basically any college in the US, save some online academies,
and 'tech' schools (like Triangle Tech, DeVry etc) ARE Liberal Arts
colleges. Liberal Arts refers to the medeival European system of
college, where students are trained in a wide array of subjects. So,
when you go to college, whether MIT, or Swarthmore, or Harvard, or
Penn State, or Clarion, you'll take your "core" courses, in your
major, but you'll also take Electives. These electives are the
"liberal arts" education. <br>
I took classes in Chemistry, Astronomy, Art History, Humanities,
Psychology, Basketball, US History and a lot of other electives when I
earned my degree in Music Ed.
answers2: A liberal arts college does not mean that all it offers are
degrees in liberal arts, as implied by the other poster. It does mean
that they offer a range of courses from which you can still choose a
major in a particular field. Although they do not usually offer
degrees in engineering, architecture, pharmacy or other professional
fields. <br>
<br>
In my opinion no degree is wasted if you know what to do with it. <br>
There are unlimited career opportunities with any degree IF you know
how to use it effectively. Most don't. <br>
<br>

degree in liberal arts, check these out: <br>

martial arts !!!!!!!?

answers1: The martial art of "Use Your Brain and Your Heart" <br>
Martial arts is about listening, so no martial art can out weigh
another. You just have to put focus into the one you're learning. I
have a friend who took down two black belts from some MMA studio. He
had never taken a martial arts lesson in his life. I garuntee you,
that in each of the martial arts you listed, you will find just as
many weaknesses as you find strengths. It's up to you to seek them out
with your heart and mind. Choosing a martial art is a personal choice.
You must decide which martial art is best for you, by doing the one
which makes you feel most comfortable, it will allow you to learn the
"Art - as in something you use to express yourself" better.
answers2: MMA isn't a style. It's a system of combining martial arts. <br>
<br>
But I guess ignoring semantics, I'd have to say MMA, and Jujutsu
answers3: TFT. <br>
<br>
All of those types of martial arts are contradictory in conditioning.
Conditioning is the only thing that creates defense and attacking is
done from opportunities. <br>
<br>
It's all about your size and shape and what lets you function the
best. That's if you can afford the commitments. Then, if you do any
of those you gain things to add to an arsenal of what may or may not
possibly work. <br>
<br>
It's better to learn about each, then create something that works
amazing for you and would mess someone's coordination up for trying to
copy or else, they just adjust by seeing what you do and doing
something stronger. Don't let that happen, learn to fight with
momentum of being engaged so when you ride that wave of mental follow
through (you're movin, if they stop you, a lot of force would be
needed, you are on a roll, like hitting all the green lights and not
having to stop). <br>
<br>
It will be like, hitting a routine or daily grind, and allow for more
creative adjustments. But never commit to what you might be demanded
alegence too or else you might miss that adjustment that makes your
dreams possible.
answers4: first of all my friend most martial arts are not strike
first at all. What I mean by this is there is no first strike in
karate. It is the basic principle to be peaceful unless attacked then
use force within necessary means to control your attacker. I do like
traditonal martial arts being in them off and on for 32yrs man and
trained in many forms of martial arts and what i will call self
defense arts. <br>
Self defense arts are Krav Maga, Hapkido, Aikido, Juijitsu, Muay Thai,
Boxing, Jeet Kune Do, and more that are concerned with protection in
itself. <br>
Aikido takes quite awhile to grasp and learn to become effective as do
many traditional martial arts like karate,Tae Kwon Do, Hapkido. Kenpo
is a highly effective blend of kung fu/karate mixed. Chinese kempo is
another excellent martial art to learn. <br>
Many Indonesian weapons arts, japanese weapon arts like kenjutsu,
kendo, iaido, are highly effective. These are only as effective as you
put into your particular style of training and discipline to stay with
them. <br>
Karate always in there kata or forms has a block followed by a
particular strike. Tae Kwon Do is the same way. Aikido and Hapkido use
blending with your advissary to off balance and throw them by leading
them away and out in a type of circular pattern to avoid being taken
down or hit or kicked. <br>
I like the best form is " use your brain and common sense" to learn
what is needed to become effective. <br>
MMA is a fighting sport so they have a ref in the cage controlling the
rules of the fight. The street only has one rule..to stay alive and
you must use common sense" or you can be killed. It is not the movies
out there. It is the real deal, weapons, knives, baseball bats, you
name it people who are up to no good use whatever means to hurt
someone or possibly kill. Stay alert and focus on what is in front of
you at all times and around you not your smartphone. Situational
awareness is the most common sense thing we can do to avoid most if
not all situations. <br>
Take care my friend....
answers5: wing chun has a lot of practicality for striking, but they
have a really tough time against boxers, particularly the jab. <br>
boxing seems to be judged a lot in the martial arts community, but the
truth is it is a good martial art to do because the main thing is
covering your head and delivering powerful strikes, which is really a
smart thing when you think about it. <br>
i haven't had any experience with krav maga, but considering the place
it comes from it must be really effective. <br>
all of this is just handy dandy until the fight goes to the ground, in
which case jujitsu is a must. <br>
so take boxing and jujitsu
answers6: All forms are useful. 90% of all real fights end up on the
ground so I like Jiu Jitsu. Of course you need a good stand up game as
well so have a strong base in that as well. To really be able to
defend yourself mixed marital arts is the best.
answers7: none of them <br>
<br>
No Ma is the best! <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
its about the fighter himself , his mind , his spirit , and endurance <br>
<br>
Stamina is also a great deal , but most importantly , his Style of
mastering that Ma <br>
<br>
<br>
you cant ask questions like that because every Ma Fighter , Regardless
his Ma , is unique in his/her own way.
answers8: Krav Maga definitely

Suggestions for LaGuardia highschool audition?

answers1: My daughter is a student at Laguardia. She is in the art
studio (what some schools call "visual art".) <br>
<br>
I would not recommend including anything in your portfolio that you
are not comfortable with. If you feel that you are not strong in
painting, don't include any painting. I don't think that will hurt
your chances as long as the portfolio shows a variety of work that is
truly representative of who you are as an artist, and shows a strong
interest in art and a great deal of skill. <br>
<br>
I don't think it's a question of more or less work, as long as you
meet the minimum number of works in your portfolio. But your portfolio
should have enough in it to show yourself off to YOUR best advantage.
It should show who you are and what you are capable of. <br>
<br>
Does that help?

Is Ucla a good school for majoring in Visual Arts?

answers1: It's a good school. It's situated right near Hollywood and
is quite prestigious. You can also try USC if you have the money and
it's not as competitive or hard to get in. To me, it seems anyone can
get in there.
answers2: I don't mean to be crass as having achieved any degree at
all is something to be respected for, especially a PhD, but math and
engineering, sciences in general, solve real world problems logically.
When it comes to liberal arts, it's kind of like you just fluff about
to prove your opinion (which is the operative word here) is correct
and others isn't. You don't really solve anything people care about,
and the only people that care about it is those studying that area.
Again, no offence, this is just the perception associated with it. I
don't believe it is a case (usually) is of "we're better than you",
it's more that the liberal arts just don't do much.

how are music and visual arts alike ?

answers1: They both contain a message and express emotion. Visual arts
can also inspire composers to write masterpieces, just as music can
inspire painters to paint the next Mona Lisa. Hope this helps :)
answers2: They both express what cannot be expressed in words...
they're a medium for emotion. All great artists are passionate about
what they do.

Is my knowledge of visual arts very limited?

answers1: I just took the quiz, it was pretty fun. I missed one. <br>
<br>
So I did well, but it is part of my degree so I've been actively
studying this stuff and really in depth. Perhaps you know a wide range
of art, but don't study it really in depth? Or you know a narrow bit,
but really, really well. Everything about it? <br>
<br>
Art history is really indepth. I don't care how well I did on this
test, because when I'm talking to my art history teacher and painting
professor I feel like I know nothing and have to study for decades
just to reach half the knowledge they have. <br>
<br>
If I'm not sure if my knowledge of a time period is very limited or
not, I assume I know nothing and take a class on it. I might end up
already knowing a bit of it, but I'll always learn something. I'd hate
to think I knew everything and then miss out on learning.
answers2: everyone has limited knowledge of visual arts, it doesn't
matter how much one knows or thinks they know... <br>
from the looks of the quize pablo picasso himself would score low... <br>
it is a matter of how much one has studied actually, and then what
they've read and what it said...
answers3: No, not by any means. Art by its nature is very broad, so
it's impossible to know everything. What's important is that you
personally have an interest in the subject. <br>
<br>
I have a degree in art history, and I didn't get them all right
either. Don't pay any attention to quizzes like this - there's really
no accurate gauge to measure what the extent of your knowledge is.
Keep on learning, but make sure it's for your own benefit!
answers4: ART IS SO DEEP AND SO COMPLEX. <br>
IT IS AN EXPRESSION OF ONES FEELING, and you know how complicated
people are. <br>
<br>
so basically, EVERYBODY IS LIMITED.
answers5: I missed the one about Albrecht Durer's coat of arms, and
successfully guessed a few that I didn't actually know. :D <br>
<br>
It's just an online quiz. I did notice that a lot of the questions
were more about picking the right word than the right painting,
artist, or movement. And the scope of the test was fairly limited.
They may not have touched on the areas you know most about. <br>
<br>
I wouldn't let it get to me.

Guys, will you act shy around a girl who acts shy around you who likes you?

If we had something to talk about then I wouldnt act that way.

Acting showcases? Acting training? ACTING!!!!?

answers1: if your school has them, do plays and drama classes. look in
the phone book for community <br>
theaters, some of them might have classes. try doing student and ind.
films. you will probably need to get out of fremont to do this. that's
the thing about per suing acting, it can't be done from every <br>
where. you need to be where there are acting opportunities, that's a
given. most show cases <br>
are just fronts for expensive acting classes. look on SAG'S web site
for approved agents. you <br>
will need to get to where the agents are if none are near you. you
need to be within at least <br>
an hour and a half of where the auditions and your agent are to do
this. you will need a parent who will do this with you before you can
do anything.

why was the sedition act dangerous?

answers1: It took away freedom of speech which is guaranteed in the
First Amendment. <br>
<br>
It forbade the use of "disloyal, profane, scurrilous, or abusive
language" about the United States government, its flag, or its armed
forces or that caused others to view the American government or its
institutions with contempt. The act also allowed the Postmaster
General to refuse to deliver mail that met those same standards for
punishable speech or opinion. It applied only to times "when the
United States is in war." It was repealed on December 13, 1920.

friend, never ever stare at them too long though, and just act
content, not overly happy or not happy at all. HOpe this helps :)

what is the data protection act 1998?

answers1: The Data Protection Act 1998 is a United Kingdom Act of
Parliament which defines UK law on the processing of data on
identifiable living people. It is the main piece of legislation that
governs the protection of personal data in the UK. Although the Act
itself does not mention privacy, it was enacted to bring UK law into
line with the European Directive of 1995 which required Member States
to protect people's fundamental rights and freedoms and in particular
their right to privacy with respect to the processing of personal
data. In practice it provides a way for individuals to control
information about themselves. Most of the Act does not apply to
domestic use,[1] for example keeping a personal address book. Anyone
holding personal data for other purposes is legally obliged to comply
with this Act, subject to some exemptions. The Act defines eight data
protection principles. It also requires companies and individuals to
keep personal information to themselves.

Why did the church officially oppose theatre?

answers1: They considered it Roman...pagan, full of whores, obscenity,
blasphemy, evil, etc. IIRC, they refused to baptize anyone who
participated in stage plays.
answers2: Wait, so you mean your church just automatically started
hating theatre and drama? I've no idea why. My church is all for it.

high school/theater/HELP!?

answers1: if you mean "do all high schools have a theater?" no they
don't, some cannot afford it. Although if your school doesn't (making
sure you ask a higher authority like a principal) its likely you can
start a Drama Club, and with fundraisers and the right people, can do
a play.

can any theatre deny showing marathi cinema in his theatre?

answers1: Any theatre can refuse to show any movie that it deems
inappropriate for that cinema as long as its got a justification that
isn't prejudiced. <br>
<br>
In the case this, there isn't enough demand. Only 10% is marathi. Not
all of that 10% will go see every movie they play. there are a
significant portion that will not go and see any movie played. There
is a high probability of the cinema loosing money. <br>
<br>
If you want to see those movies there, you need to show that there is
a demand. Start a petition saying that people want it and have a lot
of people sign it. A LOT

What inspired Greek Theatre?

answers1: Both of the first two answers are correct. <br>
<br>
@Penelope: Let me guess... Antigone??
answers2: greek theater started in 12th century b.C. <br>
drama was used as apart of the celebrations for dionysus in dionysian
(athens) <br>
drama flourished though between 550 bC and 220 bC <br>
Dionysus is the god of grape harvest and during those celebrations
people were wearing masks with horns and tried to reach ecstasy in
order to reach their god
answers3: Ancient Greek Theatre which is known as Drama was the result
of combination of two poetry forms, Epos and Lyric Poetry. It is
linked to religious rites which happened to honour Zeus, Hera,
Dionysus or other Olympians. Part of Dionysus's worship was "Ecstasy"
which demanded the practitioners to be dressed in costumes (animals'
leathers). Myths were the first themes of drama, mainly about
Dionysus's life and adventures. Later other myths about wars were
included too. Drama was a great way to point current problems in an
indirect way. This means that each writer changed myths to what he
wanted to say, to emphasize the problems that needed to be changed.
<br>
<br>
We must also mention that theater was a type of school in ancient
Greece that even poor people could attend (rich people were obliged to

Is poetry cool?

answers1: If you're into it, yes. If you like it, don't lower your
standards to a girl that wouldn't. Always be yourself. You'll come out
at some point so if you're always you... you'll find a girl that's
compatible for who you truly are. Personally, I love poetry and would
go crazy over a guy comfortable enough with himself to carry a poetry
book around with him. I recommend a Robert Frost book, but it'd be
ever better if it were a book of poetry you wrote...
answers2: Yes. Chicks dig guys who write poetry. When I was in
college it was a surefire way to strike up a conversation with a girl.
I think it would serve you well. Make sure you have poems in it
though. LOL
answers3: The ones who count, yeah, probably. The kinds of morons who
wait around trying to shoplift at Walmart, probably not. Maybe you can
use it as a "separator".
answers4: Er...I don't see how poetry makes you a geek. It makes you
emotional, artistic, creative, and deep. I would associate someone
carrying around math textbooks and pens in their front pocket as a
geek. <br>
<br>
I would find it attractive because I know you are better than the
average guy who is super into his masculinity and toughness. haha
answers5: personally i like the deep hurt poetry, but if u carry round
a notebook u may seem like a geek, but if ur kinda emo looking it can
be hot. but don't try to do something ur not.
answers6: It might make SOME girls a little curious to know what's in
the book. Might be a good conversation piece.
answers7: Super
answers8: I say,no don't walk around with your poetry notebook but
defiantly try to start the subject and show her ur poetry, or write
her something right there. that would be really romantic n cool. and
some thing to tell you poetry dose not make look like u a geek. Ignore
all those that said that. poetry makes you unique,talented,
attractive, thoughtful, ... you name it. NWYAS, GOOD LUCK.
answers9: Sorry but i don't think so, unfortunately there are very few
girls who appreciate poetry, many girls will probably think you're gay
or just a geek.
answers10: depends poetry a good way to express yourself forget what
people thinks.

I have started a Poetry group. Would you like to join?

answers1: roses are red violets are blue i just got 2 points how
stupid are you...
answers2: i know this to be a farse so stick your group right up your A R S E
answers3: If you open your site to all people who claim to be truly
devoted to poetry and there's no objective standard, you're going to
wind up reading a lot of bad poetry. <br>
<br>
Frankly, life's too short to waste my time with bad poetry. <br>
<br>
If you're going to screen people and only let in people who you think
write good poetry, then everyone that joins will share your taste in
poetry but since I have no idea if you and I share our taste for
poetry, again, there's the risk that if I join that I'll be exposed to
a lot of bad poetry. <br>
<br>
So thanks but no thanks.
answers4: Rose are red, violets are blue <br>
I have to say no, poetry's poo

I want to start a poetry club....?

answers1: My school has a semester course titled Creative Writing,
which focuses on using the imagination to create both short stories
and poems alike, in the fall, and in the spring the course is replaced
with a production class for a school print called the Jabberwocky,
named after Carrol's creature, that is a once-yearly collection of
poetry and stories from the school body entire. <br>
<br>
However, a quarterly magazine would be very different, and would most
likely lack the resources necessary unless you devoted holidays and
summer to adding to it. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Now, as to what is done in a poetry club, definitely start by
introducing a set style of poetry that is simple and easy to use, like
Haiku or Limericks, and after a few meetings (encourage work outside
of the club as well) have a presentation of some works members are
particularly proud of. After this introduce a new style, and repeat
the cycle until all the members feel comfortable with presenting their
material to each other, and then introduce the idea for a magazine.
<br>
Keep it to a once or twice yearly deal, though, because trust me:
putting out a poetry magazine is a lot harder than it sounds.

name for poetry anthology?

answers1: complex matter. query in google. just that might help!
answers2: what's the randomest line in any of your peoms, use 2 or 3
of those words, to make the reader favor to verify you e book, or
anthology. I did an analogous situation, and mine develop into
observed as Coconut Waffles. Fredajola
answers3: Poetry for Laughter <br>
A Rather Short Book with A Fairly Long Title That Has the Sole Purpose
of Making You Laugh Unconcontrollably from the Amusing, Hilarious, and
Comedy-based Poetry Contained Within.

Careers that involve philosophy?

answers1: Teaching, counseling and human resources management. In fact
philosophy can be useful in any field, without which easy and quick
success cannot be achieved.
answers2: Not much really, as someone mentioned before, it looks good
for law school...but law school in itself can be a risky investment,
the standards are very high, the pay is low, the demand for them is
low, honestly I would just change major, I understand if you love
philosophy, I mean who doesn't? We are all philosophers at heart, but
it's one of those things that are better off left as a smart hobby.
answers3: ha. go to grad school. that is your only hope. then teach
it. there is nothing else. <br>
<br>
looking back at my answer it seemed rather hopeless, but i swear i
meant it to be the best of advise... <br>
<br>
teach it. what's wrong with that?
answers4: Develope your own and live by it. Not someone elses made
just for their success.
answers5: A certainty seeker can do in basic terms approximately
something for a occupation for each little thing teaches you something
and one factor finally leads to a distinctive.. regardless of if a
real certainty seeker would not hassle assisting mankind because of
the fact it is an entire waste of time. we are doomed for dying. the
only secret to sparkling up is why we hassle ourselves with trivial
worldly issues.
answers6: Philosophy majors actually do quite well on the Law School
Admissions Test, and in the field of law in general. Any job that
requires analytic thinking and high levels of abstraction, really,
though these positions often aren't entry level.

Is Boethius a winner? Is Philosophy unfeeling?

answers1: Boethius is remembered today. That is one definition of
immortality and makes him a winner to me.. We need an objective
definition of "winner" to universalize my conclusion. <br>
<br>
In Boethius" conversation with Lady philosophy he (or she) says that
there is a higher power and everything else is subordinate to that. I
conclude that Lady Philosophy is not wholly unfeeling but feelings are
not the highest priority.

Is philosophy critical to science?

answers1: Is philosophy critical to science? <br>
<br>
~~~ In a way. Science is a feeder branch of the tree of philosophy!
Many scientists fear philosophers, and vice versa, out of ignorance of
the other's abilities. A philosopher can make a whole area of
scientific inquiry, many theories, obsolete, with one good thought!
Philosophy without science is a leaky ship with no rudder!! <br>
<br>
Ultimately, they are the same tree! The tree of philosophy has many
branches, and one does not 'cause' the other. 'Causality' is made
obsolete by philosophy first. Science is finally catching up in many
areas. Empiricism, science, is an obsolete theory, as found by quantum
theory!
answers2: Yes, in one sense it is impossible to separate philosophy
and science, because when you do that, you are doing philosophy. <br>
<br>
Scientist might not care about the philosophical assumptions their
making, just as a baseball player doesn't care about the physics of
hitting a ball. Yet physics is essential to baseball, just as
philosophy is essential to science. <br>
<br>
I think some of these courses, particularly the one of philosophy of
science, can answer your question far better than I could. (link
below) <br>

All the best, <br>

What aspects would be involved in a philosophy career?

answers1: A philosopher can do just about anything for a career for
everything teaches you something and one thing leads to another.. <br>
However a true philosopher wouldn't bother helping mankind because
it's a total waste of time. We are doomed for death. <br>
The only mystery to solve is why we bother ourselves with trivial
worldly things.
answers2: It involves going to a 4 year college and then on to 6-10
years of graduate study, both in philosophy. If you decide not to
major in philosophy in college, it would take longer; another two
years for a masters degree. <br>
Philosophy involves many aspects; it involves having to teach classes
you may not be particularly interested in, as well as taking classes
you may not be particularly interested in. You have to take grueling
logic classes, at least Logic, Advanced Logic, and normally Modal
logic. It also involves a lot of reading, far more than it does actual
writing and publishing. <br>
<br>
Unfortunately, getting into grad school is extremely difficult, at
least one of the top 10. From then, getting a job as a professor is
far more difficult, and is really the only way to have a real
"philosophy degree" unless you count writing books like "The
philosophy of X" where X is some silly pop culture triviality, a
career in philosophy. <br>
<br>
In short, you should only actually consider a career in philosophy if
it is the only thing you can see yourself doing, regardless of what
your future holds. <br>
<br>
As for what "Lady Death" said, she's completely wrong. A true
philosopher doesn't hold any inclinations that mankind is doomed or
that we're all evil, or what not; that's simple sophistry. There a lot
of things that make up what a philosopher could be, but it's certainly
not with some silly and arbitrary bi-conditional that she [I presume]
made up.
answers3: Roger Ebert is a philosopher. He is a philosopher of the
aesthetics of movie making. Movie makers are philosophers, because
they present us with metaphysics (that what art is about) but movies
can also involve any or all of the other aspects of philosophy. <br>
<br>
It's impossible to actually answer your question, because it depends
on what profession you go into. Medicine, science, law, are all
dealing with various aspects of philosophy; and ethics are big part of
each of them. There are professionals who deal with ethics in every
profession. Certified public accountants, for example have their
Professional Ethics Executive Committee. Every profession has such
committees. <br>
<a href="http://www.aicpa.org/InterestAreas/ProfessionalEthics/Pages/ProfessionalEthics.aspx"
rel="nofollow"class=Clr-b>http://www.aicpa.org/InterestAreas/Profe...</a>
<br>
<br>
Novelists are like movie makers, giving us a metaphysical view of
existence. Political scientists teach us the nature of rights, where
they come from, and how to protect them. Diplomacy is a very
specialized form of political science (the 4th branch of philosophy).
<br>
<br>
Pick your profession, and then ask what it will engage you in. If you
don't like the requirements of that profession, pick another. If you
want to be in academia, for example, you will be dealing with students
and you will be required to write books and papers. Is that what you
want, or do you want to be on a Board of Ethics; or directing movies;
or working for the White House?
answers4: Well expect not to make any money unless you become a
professor. And what Lady Death said....
answers5: Many end up as sort of interesting cab drivers.
answers6: i'm uncertain approximately Ontology. yet with Philosophy -
you may paintings interior of those fields: *
administration/administration - in such diverse aspects as workers,
financial help, or public kinfolk. Employment settings would
incorporate college or college, prisons, hospitals, government
companies (county, state or federal),and private businesses. *
enterprise - administration, sales, consulting public kinfolk, fund
raising, structures analysis, merchandising, and banking. *
Publishing/Writing - sales, enhancing, administration, freelance,
technical writing for a employer or government, and script author. *
government - congressional team member, federal companies and bureaus,
state and local governments, United countries, foreign places service,
and cultural affairs. * coverage- agent and broking service. *
Journalism - reporter and critic (books, dance, action picture) *
Pre-professional training - A philosophy substantial additionally
delivers remarkable undergraduate training for regulation college, MBA
classes, scientific college, and seminary. you should continually
communicate on your college - see what opportunities are attainable to
you in this substantial.
answers7: Teaching or writing books/articles, that's about it. <br>
<br>
Studying philosophy can be very helpful toward obtaining a law degree,
but that is law, not pure philosophy.

How do i create my own philosophy?

answers1: You don't create, you can't. You can, tho, report your
philosophy as it develops, as time passes and it like everything else
changes. That's all you are, a (hopefully accurate) reporter. <br>
<br>
First hint; stop using "yall". <br>
<br>
Second hint; Grab yourself by the front of your shirt and demand to
know, just what DO you think about Taxes, about Global Warming, about
Abortion and about War as dinner topics, about Atomic Bombs in the
wrong hands; about what order you put things like this in? <br>
<br>
Your answers will define your philosophy. <br>
<br>
dw
answers2: nicely, you will desire to have some thing to base it on, as
a results of fact no person has a philosophy that they did no longer
base it on some others philosophy. So, you would be able to initiate
with a number of our Founding Fathers, who had super philosophies.
answers3: Easy <br>
<br>
Step 1: Figure out what you like. <br>
<br>
Step 2: Outline in exacting, borderline-pathological detail why what
you like is important. <br>
<br>
Step 3 (Optional): Just for kicks (and to get published) attempt to
refute a very basic axiom. For example, existence. <br>
<br>
Step 4: Mention Plato somehow, ideally how he was wrong. <br>
<br>
Step 5: Wear a turtleneck sweater underneath a tweed jacket. <br>
<br>
Congradulations, you're a bonafied philosopher! With any luck, you'll
get your very own adjective.
answers4: Okay, I'm no expert but I will try to help. First, what does
your philosophy value the most (i.e. justice, health, social welfare,
etc). Second, how do achieve that goal; do you stop at nothing to
acieve the value or do make sure that the methods respect individual
rights. A philosophy should not be ambiguous and should be able to be
summarized in a sentence or two. Philosophies could also be likened to
types of governments or a debate case (Licoln-Douglas, but ignore if
you don't know what it means). If this doesn't help maybe look at some
books if you can find any. Good luck!
answers5: In the beginning there was the Big Nothing. <br>
Then Something began. <br>
And here we are now. <br>
The End.
answers6: Philosophy of what? The rules of Monopoly are in effect the
philosophy of Monopoly. Make up your rules.
answers7: What principles do you value most? <br>
<br>
I value empiricism, objective ethics and focusing on the form of
arguments. An extension of these things are (in my view) strong
atheism, anarchism and equality of children. <br>
<br>
I wouldn't focus on anything like "here are the four tenets of my
philosophy". Instead I would talk about how it actually informs my day
to day decisions and the standards that I hold. <br>
<br>
Hope that helps. Good luck!
answers8: I read that philosophy is the study of problems. <br>
Here is mine: <br>
<br>
"Respect is everything." <br>
"Be strong, so you can help the weak" <br>
What is best in life? <br>
1. Live long. <br>
2. Outlast your enemies. <br>
3. Die strong!
answers9: You already have one. To understand this, simply substitute
the word "philosophy" for "opinion". Surely you have an opinion many
things...hundreds or even thousands of things. Maybe you have an
opinion about abortion, or homosexuality, or capitol punishment, or
existence of God, or the nature of good and evil, or being truthful,
or obeying the law even when no one is watching, or the meaning of
life or why we're here, or even whether chocolate is good for your
mental well-being or whether the Yankees are better players than the
Red Sox. <br>
<br>
All these are philosophies of a sort. Some are important issues and
some are frivolous. Some things you might have studied deeply and
thought about a lot, and others may be opinions you've borrowed from
others that you've never even questioned. Everything you have an
opinion on represents your personal philosophy. The trick is to turn
what you believe into more than mere opinion, to have an understanding
of why you believe certain things and whether those are valid or
rational beliefs. In other words, question everything you think you
know or everything you think is true or false. Then you will be on
your way to being a true philosopher. It is helpful to read philosophy
because it can teach us how to think about things and it can help us
save some time in sorting out our opinions. <br>
<br>
See? It's simple really. You already are one and didn't even know it.
Now rise above the masses and become a good one. Don't be afraid to
change your mind about things as you go through life. As the saying
goes, there's no fool like an old fool.
