Personal Responsibility: What Does It Mean To You Debra Wilson GEN200 September 9, 2013 Prof. Wenzell Personal Responsibility: What Does It Mean To You The importance of personal responsibility is something that seems to be expressed by people more often in recent year. The way in which people define the idea of personal responsibility, however, is hardly consistent.

Our relationships with others help us to define who we are From birth, we are assigned concrete features of our identity. We cannot control the family or culture we are born into, but the relationships we form with our immediate family, at least initially, will define certain aspects of who we are.

Ultimately the theory suggests that we modify these meanings in our mind and then act based on the symbols of reality that we have created. The opportunity for misunderstanding comes from the clashing of these meanings. There are a number of different interpretations and themes incorporated into SI, which I will attempt to unpack below.

Joshua Brackeen Professor Randy Monroe October 24, 2009 ENGL 258 – 01 The Setting's Effect in The Stranger Throughout The Stranger, Albert Camus uses the setting to express the damaging and nonhuman-like characteristics of Mersault. As a result of Camus's utilization of setting, he is capable of showing us that regardless of where Mersault is, he has no control over his thoughts, actions, or anything else for that matter, and that his quick loss of composure only leads to eventual unhappiness. Mersault experiences a gradual change from a rather happy life towards self-realization of a pointless and wasted life, which only ends in Mersault's final downfall. The presence of brightness and high temperatures as part of the setting help exemplify Mersault's chaotic attributes and lack of control.
