Bacon without the pig and the famous Darwin

Bacon:

    1)      Bacon believed that when you used the word Idol, it was a fault or error. Normally when you use the word idol, it’s to describe someone you look up too or a hero.

    2)      There shouldn’t be a importance of one idol with that of another. The idol that one believes in should be the main person or thing they should incorporate within their lives.

    3)      The tribe and marketplace are the results of social intercourse. Cave and theater are of those that are the results of an individual. A person would feel more nearly towards their idol or idols if he/she were restricted in society. If a hermit was completely out of society and grew up as such then they would be freer. However, if they were to find out about society then it’s personal preference.

Darwin:

    1)      Survival of the fittest is the curl way of everyone is on their own and must and will do everything they can in order to survive. Today you only see this among animals. For example, sharks will eat anything if it is hungry enough and needs food. It’s only instinct is to survive so it does so without bonds.

    2)      Animals that have been breed are more likely to be direct and efficient because they have qualities that have already been selective and will be more likely to grow up stronger and healthier. Natural selection is more dominated and important because it has the chance of evolution. It can evolve into “another” species that is stronger than the last and can adapt to the climate that it’s around.

    3)      In theory cloning can eliminate natural selection. In a way it’s a more efficient to create a species. Because you can pick and choose what gets produce and what doesn’t.

    4)      Humans have a hard time depending on others when things go wrong. Thus, agencies like the red cross come in when disaster strikes and in some situations, this is good. However, this can make us weak as individuals by the lack of knowledge it takes to survive.  

       
       

Woolf & Mead

Woolf & Mead

V. Woolf:

    1.      Her audience suggest that she wanted to encourage them and let them feel empowered to stand up and keep fighting.

    2.      She wanted to have gender equality between husband and wife. Women shouldn’t be just stuck at home doing all the work while their husbands went out to receive a good education and a good job.

    3.      Women should be able to receive the same education as men. Both men and women should also play equal parts in the house, cleaning, cooking, etc.

       

       M. Mead:

    1.      Both men and women can have temperamental traits that can relate for one another. One might suggest that they both have strong aggressive traits. These traits can sometimes be so strong that they can interfere one their relationship and sometimes be unforgivable.

    2.      Society loses majorly when they restrict the opportunities of one sex or the other. Doing this will not only put a certain view-point on a task but it’ll also put women on a lower level than men.

    3.      The price that is being paid is society is given labels for each gender’s. For example, women can cry but men can’t, or you’ll be considered as not strong enough. Another example would be that only men are strong enough to do this job.

    4.      Modern industrialized society should be concerned about the ways of “primitive” cultures, because if not then the past will repeat itself. Men will be labeled with only going to work drinking beer and watching sport channels. Where women will be labeled with going to work then coming straight home to cook, do laundry, and maybe drink a glass of wine.

Wollstonecraft, Kozol, & Woodson

    1.       It seems that pernicious effects is a way to evilly undermine women to the point of them feeling small and insignificant. Almost like they’re not good enough to do a certain job or a task at hand. In other words, they would spoil society and everything it stands for. Pretty harsh in my opinion.

    2.       Women are not property. However, in the late 50’s it was almost certain that women were view that way. Things such as not being able to divorce their husband or if they wanted to leave they basically had to leave everything behind, even their own children. Marital rape was even legal and “a new law in 1782 stated that a husband should not beat his wife with a stick wider than his thumb.”     

    3.       It had to have a big impact on women from the way they were being treated. Almost the same as dogs you could say in some occasions. The inequality it brought to them made them stand up for one another and make them not as weak but strong and united.

    4.       Kozol stated that there was really no such thing as diversity. However, segregation among schools was more of the problem.

    5.       Woodson meant that if you wanted to get a higher education or a better job you must use the tools that have be given to you to get somewhere in life. No one deserves special treatment type of out look.
