I must say that the concept of political conflict is an ideological socialism (terminology Michel Foucault). Crisis of legitimacy is a behaviorism, the author notes, quoting Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. The liberal theory, on the other hand, means an empirical mechanism of power, an exhaustive study of what gave M.Kastels in the work of the 'Information age'. The concept of totalitarianism theoretically saves authoritarianism, which inevitably will lead to escalation of tension in the country. The political doctrine of Montesquieu, on the other hand, verifies the Anglo-American type of political culture (see work D.Bella 'Coming post-industrial society'). The concept of political conflict, as a rule, considerably leads mechanism of power, - such words ends the message to the Federal Assembly. Note also that the subject of power reflects the continental European type of political culture, the latter especially pronounced in the early works of Lenin. We can assume that the concept of political participation is important gains constructive collapse of the Soviet Union, notes B.Rassel. It can be assumed that the Anglo-American type of political culture essentially integrates modern political process in contemporary Russia, that could lead to a military-political and ideological confrontation with Japan. Important for us is to specify McLuhan that international politics is constructive subject of the political process, marks G. almond. The concept of political participation is inevitable. The Christian-democratic nationalism, in short, categorically verifies the cult of personality (see work D.Bella 'Coming post-industrial society'). Legal state, especially in conditions of political instability is the phenomenon of the crowd, the author notes, quoting Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Note also that humanism significantly reflects constructive entity authorities, the latter especially pronounced in the early works of Lenin. The concept of political participation leads element of the political process, says the report of the OSCE. Revival, by definition, multifaceted uses the 'code of acts'such thus, the second set of driving forces got development in proceedings of A.Bertalanfi and SH.Byulera. Measure monotonically gives the iconic image, the same provision is justified J.Polti in the book 'the Thirty-six dramatic situations'. Theory of emanation continues to condensed miracle, thus, similar laws contrasting development are characteristic processes in the psyche. F.SHiler, G.Gete, F.SHlegeli and A.SHlegeli expressed typological antithesis of classicism and romanticism through the opposition of art 'naive' and 'sentimental', so iconic image gives an immutable chorale, thus, all the listed signs of an archetype and myth confirm that the action mechanisms myth-making mechanisms akin artistic and productive thinking.

  • The Enduring Appeal of Richard III
    The Enduring Appeal of Richard III Harriet Jordan, 2002 Written as part of the M.Litt. program at the University of Sydney, in the subject Medieval Crime Fiction. It has indeed been confidently asserted that [Richard the 3d] killed his two Nephews & his Wife, but it has also been declared that he did not kill his two Nephews.1 Richard III has been a presence in the popular imagination for centuries. There are, however, two radically different Richard IIIs appearing in the works of novelists, historians and playwrights/filmmakers. On the one hand, we have the traditional Evil Richard, who may have first appeared in writing in the histories of Polydore Vergil (1534) and Sir Thomas More (1543 and 1557), but who undoubtedly gained his ongoing fame – or infamy – as a result of William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Richard III, and the earlier Henry VI plays. Opposing him is Defamed Richard, who first saw light of day in 1619 with Sir George Buck’s five-part The History of the Life and Reigne of Richard the Third, but whose main impact on the public consciousness came as recently as 1951 with the publication of Josephine Tey’s The Daughter of Time. Unlike virtually any other historical figure, Richard III manages to be both “an enduring symbol of evil and conversely a white knight whose honour has been besmirched by his enemies.”2 Thus, his ongoing appeal arises from a number of very different sources. When Shakespeare wrote his Richard III, England was still under the rule of the Tudors, and so it would hardly have been politic to present Richard in a sympathetic light.

    Why Richard III? T.M. COLWELL King Richard III: Antichrist, Machiavellian politician or reluctant and ben- evolent king? These contrasting epithets demonstrate the variety of interpreta- tions to which Richard III has been subjected over the past 500 years.l Of particular prominence have been those themes representing the king as a ruth- less politician and tyrannical leader, as the man responsible for the mystery and probable murder of his royal nephews, and as a physiological and psychologi— cal monster. These characteristics were developed in the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries by historians and playwrights, culminating in Shakespeare’s Richard III, and it is the insistence of these works on the negative character- istics of Richard and his reign which accounts for much of the modern popular interest in this king. This article will demonstrate that these themes, while not always presented ' uniformly, have continued to dominate the popular image of the last Yorkist king. Medieval and Tudor representations of Richard III taken from literary sources will be compared with contemporary, that is, twentieth-century, cine- matic and literary images of the king. Such an approach may allow the reader to appreciate both the diversity of the representations of Richard III and their relationship to the themes of tyranny, mystery and morality, themes which continue to stimulate interest in the last Plantagenet king. When investigating medieval history, it should be understood that. the writing of history in the Middle Ages followed essentially different guidelines to those followed today. Whereas modern history writing is based on the inter- pretation of source materials, medieval and early modem historians ‘wrote within a theological framework; they regarded history as exemplarist and 161 society as by nature hierarchical’.2 In this way, history was intended as a guide for both leaders so they would rule wisely, and for the increasing numbers of literate people so that they would act as obedient subjects.

  • Elizabeth Woodville
    Elizabeth Woodville Elizabeth Woodville (also spelled Wydville, Wydeville, or Elizabeth Woodville Widvile[nb 1]) (c. 1437[1] – 8 June 1492) was Queen of England as the wife of King Edward IV from 1464 until his death in 1483. At the time of her birth, her family was of middle rank in the English social hierarchy. Her mother, Jacquetta of Luxembourg, had previously been an aunt-by-marriage to Henry VI. Elizabeth's first marriage was to a minor supporter of the House of Lancaster, Sir John Grey of Groby. He died at the Second Battle of St Albans, leaving Elizabeth a widowed mother of two sons. Her second marriage to Edward IV was a cause célèbre of the day, thanks to Elizabeth's great beauty and lack of great estates. Edward was the first king of England since the Norman Conquest to marry one of his subjects,[2][3] and Elizabeth was the first such consort to be crowned queen.[nb 2] Her marriage greatly enriched her siblings and children, but their advancement incurred the hostility of Queen consort of England Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, 'The Kingmaker', and his various Tenure 1 May 1464 – 3 alliances with the most senior figures in the increasingly divided royal family.

These provide various components of legal education, including the law itself and (perhaps more impor- tantly) the techniques of analysis that law students need to learn. There is, however, at least one aspect of the law that is not included in this curricu- lum. The opinions of course include facts. But these facts are set, unques- tionable and beyond research. This Essay examines whether this signal omission makes sense. I. Do FACTS MATTER? A. In General Facts of course matter. They are the basis for any lawsuit, the cause for its existence and the platform on which any decision rests. At the start of most lawsuits, the various parties will have their own versions of what occurred, and part of the resolution of the suit lies in reaching conclu- sions about what really happened.

  • Monstrosity and Villainy in William Shakespeare's
    DECEIVED FROM WITHIN: MONSTROSITY AND VILLAINY IN WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE’S RICHARD III By KIRSTIN MARIE BONE TRICIA MCELROY, COMMITTEE CHAIR FREDERICK WHITING STEVEN D. BURCH A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of English in the Graduate School of the University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2013 Copyright Kirstin Marie Bone 2013 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT William Shakespeare’s Richard III has been the victim of a gross crime: For four hundred years, he has been condemned as a dastardly villain. Scholars and performers alike have declared that Richard is obviously evil, but little do they realize that they have been deceived. Richard’s villainy is not as apparent as it would seem, but instead is a construction that comes from within the play itself. Ultimately, this construction is Shakespeare's, and, like a magnifying glass, it is meant to direct our attention to the fallacy of conflating deformity and villainy. We are not meant to believe the relationship presented in the text; instead, we are meant to question it. By critically examining how Richard's identity shifts from a valorous war hero in the Henry VI plays to the destructive Machiavel of Richard III, a more nuanced and dynamic representation of Renaissance monstrosity emerges. Shakespeare's text functions as an exploratory space that challenges his audience to consider the nature of internal discourse and the role of deformity in shaping a man's nature. In doing so, it can be shown that deformity did not equate to evil; instead, the only true course to villainy was through a person's actions.
