A large portion of Walter Ong’s writings in Orality and Literacy focused on matters that were not quantifiable. It may seem unfair to fault the author because of the uncertain records of pre-writing civilizations, but Ong’s writing’s in chapter three of his book focused on a comparison between generalized points of oral and literate cultures, which created an argument that did not acknowledge basic trends evident in contemporary writing. It is important to note that Ong published his book in the

dedication, but it is a liberating and healing process (Simpson, 2011). As creation stories are a form of the oral tradition they are based on the same things; land, language, and beliefs. One can argue that the creation stories are the source of orality, as they are the words that come from the beginning of all.
fiction in late imperial China. The content of this article is about examining the narrative significance of verse in Feng Menglong’s “The pearl Shirt Reecountered”. Many scholar regards verse in friction as a type of narrative redundancy or a sign or orality. However, Menglong has utilized verse space and prose space in the story.

Sills, and Walters identify a common misconception concerning the Great Commission. Jesus did not send out his disciples to the world but to all “ethnolinguistic groups of the world” (19). Important missional terms of cultural, strategy, and orality are identified in this section.

The Saakumu Dance Troupe from Ghana, Africa came to Bloomington, Indiana this weekend. Saturday, March 4th the performed a live performance at The Player’s Pub. It began a little after two in the afternoon and lasted for around an hour and a half. Before the performance begun, the environment was relaxed and rather non-energetic. The design of the event space was somewhat of a Mardi Gras theme. There were beads, masks, and purple, green, and gold painted objects scattered on the walls. The tables
struggle to interpret rabbinic texts. We know the Talmud is literary, and that it belongs to a unique genre; now, we must attempt to apply the genre to the context of the literature, as was briefly accomplished in the enumeration on the effects of orality on genre. Before doing so, though, it is essential to note the great difficulties which exist in the field. Marc-Alain Ouaknin, “Interpretation,” in his chapter on “Interpretation” in The Burnt Book: Reading the Talmud, warns readers of accepting
Simulation rhetoric and activity theory The fact that simulations are based on virtual facts indicates that a simulation itself is a rhetorical act or mechanism that is created to influence how others think, believe, behave, and act. As Vee (2010) posited, unlike rhetoric in textual writing practices, simulations translate rhetorical ideas into a dynamic process or framework that is designed to make meaning through interactive texts. Roundtree (2014) also maintained, “Rhetoric factors in both products
This individual, as described in Taggart’s article can be thought of as “the personification of the destructive aspects of orality. She clearly could be the symbolic recasting of the stepmother whose hoarding of food has turned to gluttony” (Taggart). This stuck myself as particularly interesting, for a connection can be found in the final edition of the story written by the
At the turn of the millennium, advancements in technology began to change everyday life worldwide. With the development of the internet, people can connect in more efficient ways through the digital matrix.

Therefore, although severely held in suspicion by fundamentalists and conservatives, it (song) represents in Algeria -a country where the cultural substrate- is heavily invested by orality, a prodigious means of expression and communication that allows the emergence of the discourse of dominated groups in general and women in particular for which it is an essential means of expression . We will try to show how, using the symbols of
For the clarity of argument, I believe it is important to set a background to understand the cultural and theoretical arena from which black feminism was born. The early feminist agreement of feminism, revolved around the mainstream notion, that feminism was a movement organized exclusively around gender, without thinking about other oppressions (Roth, 2012). A large number of scholars about the second wave of feminist agree that the mainstream feminist movement was white and privileged (Roth, 2012);

Cinematographic thinking starts at the iconic stage, but is by no means the totality or the fullness of it all. Pearce’s categorization of signs defined the iconic stage as that of perceived resemblance. Though Bazin would go to extremes to qualify cinema as a medium in which there is perfect and exact corellation between what is represented and its representation in film, it is important to note that every medium is characterized by some level of abstraction. Cinematrographic specificity should

“If a Child Washes his Hands, he Could Sit with Kings” Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart was written in 1958. In his novel, we learn how the main character Onkonkwo tackles the issues of colonialism and the challenges that arose through his lifetime. A proverb that best describes the goal Onkonkwo strived for his entire life is, “If a Child washes his Hands, he could sit with Kings.” (pg7). I understand this quote to reflect how the Umuofian community is. How they believe that you can remove the
One of the oldest methods of communication was telling stories, and there are a myriad of cultures with a rich oral tradition. Sometimes the orality of a source can contribute to implementation of a variety of themes that can result in a shift of perspective. Beowulf is a prime example of an instance when implementation of a certain theme influences the manner in which a story is viewed. As it is known today, Beowulf is drenched with Christian themes that could have been implanted for several different
The passage selected lies in the concluding book of the Iliad and is dominated by a speech made by Apollo, in which he rebukes the gods’ complicity in allowing Achilles to brutalize Hektor’s body. The passage serves a pivotal role in the text, as it acts as an impetus for the conclusion of the Iliad, in which Hektor’s body is finally returned to the Trojans. Apollo opens his speech, on lines 33-34, reminding the gods’ of Hektor’s sacrifices, which brought them honor. He then critiques the gods’
