He does a great job supporting his opinion that we should be able to eat animals, by using narratives, compare and contrasts, and citing experts that he researched. Not only did his thesis recognize the problem of animal cruelty but, it also proposed a solution which fortified his article. Pollan’s use of narratives brought perspective to his article which. In his opening paragraph, Pollan sets himself at a restaurant, eating steak while reading Peter Singer’s book “Animal Liberation.” Pollan uses the book his reading to address his problem as a meat eater. Pollan uses this narrative to make a personal connection with the reader by hinting to the reader that they too have a moral obligation to question whether eating meat is right.
Also we are able to see “Eugene” zombie fiddles with the gas pump from where he worked (Brains, Article “zombies have memories”), like he needed to do the job. I believe this is the most obvious way that Romero is trying to prove that zombies can have intelligence. Not only is there a leader zombie, but he teaches them to use weapons. One of the main characters played by Tom Savini, unfortunately becomes a zombie and he seeks revenge on the man in charge played by Dennis Hopper. Even as a zombie his goal remains the same, to seek our Hopper’s character and destroy him, one way or another.
Commander Bruce Maddox is the person wanting to have him disassemble so that they can learn more about him in the hopes of making many Data android into an Army. The mind/body argument has to do with the matter and non-matter relationship. However, there are many different thoughts and discussions about what the correct relationship may be. Many philosophers have debated about how the mind and body relate to each other. In this case there is the argument on if Data, the Android Robert, has a mind (or soul).
There are many creatures that attain the characteristics of a cyborg. Rick Deckard, the main protagonist in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, is constantly exposed to androids, the human-machine creature, that define the binary of real and unreal. Because all androids have human-like qualities, it seems impossible to determine whether or not these androids are truly alive. Likewise, Kris Kelvin from Solaris is brought in contact with many “alien” like creatures that make him question the realness of these characters. Rheya, Kris Kelvin’s deceased lover, is seen as a real person on Solaris and leaves Kelvin confused and distraught by the idea of her being alive.
This is it. This is where my journey begins. I felt strange, stepping foot on Earth again. District 10 was exactly what I had expected it to be. I began my search for Wikus in this alien filled area.
Swift also sneaks in insults to other cultures and his own all while comparing humans to animals and making more disgusting suggestions every sentence for the uses of babies. He continues to use statistics and then asks the reader to come up with a better
Cassius also tries to persuade Brutus by asking him questions that aren't actually meant to be answered. His questions are worded in such a way where the only logical answer makes Caesar look bad. When Cassius plants these questions in Brutus' head, he gets him to start thinking about the damage that Caesar could cause to Rome. Some examples of these rhetorical questions are, "Why should that name (Caesar) be sounded more than yours?" Or "Upon what meat doth this our Caesar feed that he grown so great?"
Foer begins by challenging the reader to an interesting thought experiment. What if we ate man's best friend? That's right, what if cute little Fido was food? What are the societal and personal implications that the Western world sees certain animals like dogs as friends and others, like chickens and pigs, as food? And he has the numbers to back up his proposed canine cuisines.
This transformation from dictatorship to ‘Animalism’ was then a full circle transformation back to a dictatorship, but with a different leading party. Orwell even chose the pigs to play the leaders in his satire, because they represented the piggish characteristics shown by the leaders of the Russian Revolution: Stalin, Trotsky, and Lenin.
