Neil Alexander The Great Hero

Neil Alexander The Great Hero
What was it like to be side to side with the great Hero Odysseus; Dialogue
Narrator: Little Jimmy, Neil Alexander's grandchild had just walked into the room, and had sat on grandfather's lap. Side to side Neil had served with
the great Odysseus, through the battles with the Trojans, and even in the shadowing cave of the Kyklopes.
Jimmy Alexander: Grandfather, Grandfather! My friends at school were talking about the great hero Odysseus! I remember that once mother told me
that you had served alongside the great hero? What did you do with him! What adventures did the hero lead you on?
Neil Alexander: "Ahh well Jimny, let me think where to start: for you know being on the side of Odysseus was very impactful– although I do

He had always portrayed a round character, but here, the only things he displayed was relinquishment. Although he eventually got off the island,
he didn't do it in a heroic way, or in anyway that anyone would want to tell in a story. He didn't fight Calypso or the island people of Ogygia, instead,
he begged in a way. He basically begged the Goddess Calypso to let him home. He had always " (He) Sat on the rock shore and broke his own heart
groaning, with eyes wet scanning the bare horizon of the sea."( Page 85 line 64–67). I had always wondered why he did this, for his name went down
in history as the " Great hero Odysseus". After Calypso finally let us go, we ended up on many other journey and hardships led by the gods.
Jimmy: Grandfather, to hear that you went through this breaks my heart. Oh what a burden this must be to carry around the story of Odysseus. Do you
not wish to forget about your journey, or what type of person the hero, or man, is?
Narrator: With this question in mind, Neil decided to tell Jimmy the story of when he finally returned to Ithaca.
Neil: Well son, when you travel for such a long period of time with another person or crew, you soon get to know them. When I finally understood
Odysseus, I knew that as a loyal crew member I had to stay with him until death do us part on our

Enlightenment On Business
Enlightenment on Business from "In Dialogue with Nature" 1.Introduction When I first looked at science and business, I initially thought that they
were two unrelated subjects with little to no association. However, after studying the UGFN course and developing a broader outlook, I realized
that there is in fact a partial relation between science and business. In the process of reading "In Dialogue with Nature, I understood how the masters
applied logic to reality in order to differentiate truth and falsehood. As a business student, I would like to elaborate on how Plato inspired me to seek
the truth. Education allows people to leave the cave in which they originally reside and exposes them to the reality of the world around them (Plato
6–9). However, it would be a mistake to...show more content...
Scientists are often beginning by asking questions and get an insight to problems as they are curious to understand the nature and phenomena. Darwin
began 'On the Origin of Species' chapter IV by asking two questions and provided his opinion. Having an open mind is also essential for business
students, therefore they are more willing to explore new possibilities and to expand their horizon. Divergent thinking allows students to "thinking out of
the box" and develop a broader outlook. Therefore, they may come up with completely different opinions as previously which may benefit them.
Moreover, critical thinking allows business students to delving deeper questions and come up with better solutions which would help them in their
future careers. The thinking skills for science and business are very similar. Different thinking skills are essential for them when making reasonable and
justifiable decisions. These may help them to strengthen their behaviour and evaluate their personal thinking processes. 4.Making decisions about

Examples Of Dialogue On Teenagers
Q: In the end, they're still teenagers.
A: Right. Because of that... They're still teenagers, and with some of them you know that there's a story behind it. Look, if suddenly they start smoking
and arriving late, then you know there's more to it. And then I'll ask them to come by later: "Why are you doing this? Why do you insist on smoking that
cigarette, even though you know you'll arrive late in class?" And the first time, they'll tell me: "I just needed it."
Q: Do you think that's important to do?
A: I do, because sometimes you'll pick up on things, such as: "I got into a fight back home this morning or last night and I just talked about it with my
boyfriend, but it started to get to me and I had to clear my head."
Q: OK.
A: I'll say: "Great,...show more content...
Q: Right. But in the meantime, you don't notice much.
A: No.
Q: Except that apparently there's a whole debate going on, about in which direction it should go.
A: Yes, but that's it.
Q: Would you feel the need to be able to voice your opinions on how it's going? You told me about all sorts of problems that you've encountered. Is
that also why you feel like you're on your own?
A: If there's really something going on, then we'll hold a [RECEPTIEOVERLEG ] during which it'll be discussed, and then it'll be brought to the
management, and then...
Q: Did it ever reach the management?
A: Yes. One example was when it was allowed for the students to smoke here. That's when I said: "Guys, come on, what are we doing?"
Q: And what happened next?
A: That's when the management handles it, and he was addressed on his behaviour; he was told: "It simply isn't allowed."
Q: So as enforcers you can discuss matters that you're struggling with,

Plato's Dialogue Essay
Plato's Dialogue
Dialogue: to exchange and discuss ideas in a frank and open manner to reach a mutually agreed understanding. Dialogue on difficult issues is
important to man. People can learn from others by exchanging ideas and expressing how a philosophy or a stand on an issue affects them.
Comprehending the needs, feelings, problems and views of others can help create a better future for all. Can we in a society that proclaims the right
to free speech participate in a free and open dialogue? Do we take the time to discuss important issues? Have we as a nation avoided talking about
difficult issues?

The world today has a complex communication system. However, much of this communication is one way. Whether from the pulpit, television, radio
or printed media it is just going in one direction and the exchange of ideas is stymied.
Serious dialogue is not always a part of our everyday life. Distractions keep us from taking the time to share our thoughts with others. Television and
other forms of mass media preoccupy our time. Fewer families are having meals together, each member of the family attending to their own busy life.
We talk about important life issues only when they have a direct impact on our lives. Communication is essential to human existence. Humans are
social beings dependent on each other for survival. Without dialogue we cannot fulfill our basic need to share our wants, needs, and fears.
True dialogue in this nation has been hampered by partisan dogma and political correctness, which in turn, suppresses the frank and open exchange of
ideas. Many people withhold their inner thoughts on many subjects because of the fear instilled by political correctness. People fear being judged for
what they say. A single mistake in phrasing can cost a person his reputation, career or even possibly his life.
Plato spent much time contemplating the world around him. He spent much of his lifetime teaching and taking part in dialogues. Dogma

A Dialogue Between Descartes and Me
Me: Thanks for meeting me for coffee, RenГ©! It's not everyday that you get to sit down with one of the most influential philosophers of all time!
Descartes: Well thanks for the compliment, Matt! So, you what is it that you wanted to speak with me about?
Me: I have spent some time recently studying the works of such philosophers as Clark, Chalmers, and Dennett, and I have a number of questions for
you pertaining to your traditional views of dualist nature of the person based on what these men have had to say on the topic.
Descartes: I see – I know these thinkers very well. My dualist views lead me to believe that the mind is a nonphysical entity distinct from our bodies. It
can be associated with our consciousness and self–awareness and separated from the material attributes of our bodies. I have concluded that our minds
do not follow the traditional laws of nature associated with our bodies, and are thus able to transcend the physical world to obtain knowledge. Now,
what would you like to hear about specifically?
Me: First, I would like to discuss the "hard problem" of consciousness with you.
Descartes: Ah, yes. One of my favorite topics! The "hard problem" can be defined as the problem of explaining how any physical state is conscious,
rather than unconscious. While science serves to explain the functions of the conscious physical world that we perceive, we are left with the question:
Why is it conscious? This indicates that a simple explanation of consciousness is not

Dialogue And Authentic Dialogue
Authentic Dialogue When it comes to communicating with people, I do not have a hard time. Although, this past fall semester I was put to the test.
There was a student in our Dialogue and Personality class that was, difficult. This caused the dynamic in class to be very off–putting and hard to
communicate in. He was angry, negative and wasn't afraid to bring the class down with his negative attitude. This is one example out of many how
dialogue can be hard when you are dealing with conflict. That being said, I would love to talk more about how conflict in dialogue can effect
conversation, how I have experienced authentic dialogue, as well as breaking down if authentic dialogue was supported within my experiences. To
begin, I would like to talk a little bit more about conflict.
Conflict can be seen in many different situations in dialogue. It is important to be aware of signs so that you can handle the situation properly. When
there is conflict in dialogue it can hinder any progress to be made within the conversation. Some things that may hinder dialogue are close–minded
people, judgment, lack of empathy and people being attacked and blamed. All of these things our class experienced with our former classmate. I
remember the first class hoping he would drop because the class environment was that uncomfortable. I think that shows that even how well you try to
facilitate or deal with conflict, sometimes its extremely difficult to find a resolution. Granted, our professor did a

Organizational Dialogue : Theory And Practice
Organizational Dialogue: Theory & Practice Spring Semester 2014
A dialogue means transformation of ideas, thoughts, and words between two or more persons. However in an organizational environment, the vitality
of dialogue is even on a lager side. A dialogue is a route which can refine organizational environment for conducive management. Adialogue tends to
prevent various constraints and wastage of time, money and other efforts. This notepaper focuses to explore the need and importance of a dialogue in
an organization, and how encouraging a dialogue in teams can lead to transformation of its culture that neither party in a relationship nor any
individual participant in a group/team or a network can produce solely. It will demonstrate the meaning of dialogue and its significance in teams in
organizations and also the difficult tasks that are faced by firms. It will indicate that despite the challenges it is a remedy for various organizational
issues.
According to Mikhail Bakhtin (1981), dialogue is a power of discourse to increase understanding of multiple perspectives and create myriad
possibilities. According to Robust (1963), dialogue alters the psychology of a group. The definition puts light on the fact that dialogue creates a new
understanding among individuals leading to better interpersonal relationships. A dialogue in a group of people can help them talk together in order to
explore their

Strengths And Weaknesses Of Dialogue
Introduction
Dialogue is a form of writing that has been used for over five millennia. Well known philosophers and as Plato and Confucius also used the dialogue.
The research question of this paper is: Why did Plato and Confucius choose to use a dialogue when writing some of their works? As a foundation this
paper will compare works of the two and look for common ground.
The strengths and weaknesses of dialogues will be discussed. Understanding why they used it and the benefits and drawbacks will help a writer to
make the choice whether or not to write his work as a dialogue.
Methodology
To gain a greater understanding of the written dialogue TheAnalects and the The Republic will be studied. They are widely known as influential works
and will...show more content...
There is even a description of the setting. In contrast to Confucius writings; it starts: "I went down yesterday to the Piraeus with
Glaucon the son of Ariston, that I might offer up my prayers to the goddess; and also because I wanted to see in what manner they would celebrate the
festival..." (The Internet Classics
Archive http://classics.mit.edu/Plato/republic.mb.txt) First of all there is a time being mentioned.
This mentioning of time is a double–edged sword. It can be viewed as enhancing the realism, as
Plato living at the same time as Socrates might say that he describes an actual happening. It is even easier to relate to, because actual places are
being included in the description. It is most likely that the contemporary readers knew about these places and got a vivid picture in their mind. It
being written after Socrates death it can also be viewed as being a fabrication. In short this makes The Republic a more controversial work. It is likely
to steer up more feelings in the reader in regards to that aspect.
Confucius dialogue is far from lacking virtues. In his writings we can see a reaching out for helping his follow human. This is manifested in his

""It was kind of lazy and jolly, laying off comfortable all day, smoking and fishing, and no book nor study." It was a lazy day in the cabin and I was
kind of tired. Pap was gone last night so I waited, but he didn't come so I slept. I woke up when the sun rose. Pap was not here. I am really tired and I
don't know what to do. A nap sounds nice. I was all alone in a place, with no houses or nothin. There was only trees and grass. I turned around and I
saw a pond, I don't know how deep and I ain't going to find out. "Boo!" said Tom. "Haha, very funny," I said. "I see that you have found an island for

We looked in awe. It was beautiful! It smelled clean and fresh, not like the cabin. We walked up to the side of it and Tom reached his hand out. "What

"Ouch!" we yelped "Wait a minute." I said "What do you see?" I slipped behind the fall. "Come here, you gotta see this!" "What? OH!" It was a cave, lit
by a torch! We walked to the end and I look up. There was a door. I pushed on it, but it didn't budge. We pushed together and I heard a crack. One more
time. It opened! Tom took the torch, and we climbed up the ladder that fell out. We walked up and took one step and "CRUNCH!". We looked down
and saw bones! "AH!" we screamed We held the torch up and saw a glint of something in the back. I walked up to it and shown the light up at it. It was
a locked chest with gold around it! I looked around and there was a dead body, staring at us with it's sunken eyes. " Ew! Wait, look!" I said "A key! I
will get it." Tom replied He grabbed it and put it in the chest. Click. "Hey! What are you doing!" Pap says. He slaps me across my face and I fall onto

Exploratory Dialogue Analysis
I enjoyed reading this chapter. I also like that the message written was easy to read and understand. I didn't have to worry about reading the chapter
twice unlike the other chapters. As a native–Spanish speaker at times it's hard for me to not only read and understand but also to focus on the reading.
I found this chapter to have an equal balance with the information provided. Johnston did a great job to expose both Evangelical Christians and
non–evangelicals pros and cons. The information provided is great evidence for both parties to reflect upon. As a Christian believer, I was challenged
by Johnston's three questions. She is right–as Evangelical Christian we should stop hiding and dialogue with those contrary to our Christian faith.

Martin BuberвЂ™s Dialogic Communication Essay
Martin Buber's Dialogic Communication
Dialogue is more than talking. It is not the straightforwardness of talking to or at, rather it is communicating with or between. It is "a relation between
persons that is characterized in more or less degree by the element of inclusion" (Buber, 97). Inclusiveness is an acknowledgment of the other person,
an event experienced between two persons, mutual respect for both views and a willingness to listen to the views of the other. These elements are the
heart of dialogical relations. In this paper I will examine Martin Buber's theory of communication, its relevance to my life and the critiques of the theory.
At the core of Buber's theory is a distinction between dialogue and monologue. Dialogue is...show more content...
Important to dialogic communication as well is the "narrow ridge". This is the place in which views from both parties to the conversation can be
viewed. A kind of lookout tower or observation post in which both persons get as close to the others views with out actually taking them as their own
in order to understand the other. It is not a place in which conversation participants meet and compromise their beliefs to appease the other. "The
narrow ridge requires a balancing of concern for self and other in proportionate amounts for what is needed by the situation..." (Arnett, 173).
To avoid misunderstanding, dialogue needs to be defined by what it is not. Dialogue is not technical dialogue, chit chat, loving or liking the other,
equality, weakness or compromise. Technical dialogue is a byproduct of modern society. It arises out of a need to understand objectively. It is different
from real dialogue because Buber states dialogue is subjective (Arnett, 6). Chit chat is monologue disguised as dialogue, the need to communicate
something for the sake of having their own thoughts and ideas heard, not to learn, not to influence, not to come to understanding with another (Arnett,
6). Dialogue does not happen just because you like or love someone. In fact, it can happen between persons who dislike each other very much as long
as they can

A Dialogue On Language By Martin Heidegger
In Martin Heidegger's "A Dialogue on Language," in On the Way to Language, an Inquirer and a Japanese man discuss the dangers of examining
concepts between languages. They discuss the Japanese term "Iki," which is impossible to translate into Western languages, much like how aesthetics
doesn't apply to East Asian concepts. But since both Japanese and German originally came from the same source, the Inquirer suggests that one must
return to the beginning of language to fully understand the magnitude of concepts only present in one specific language. Laozi, in his Daodejing,
believes that the best way to teach is without words, echoing Heidegger's point about returning to the beginning of language. This is also a concept in
Zen Master Dogen's Moon in a Dewdrop, since nonsense is used as a way in which to achieve enlightenment, much like how the word "Iki" seems to
a westerner. Heidegger discusses the danger of different languages and the solution of returning to the beginning in his On the Way to Language; a
solution which can be interpreted into Laozi's Daodejing and Dogen's Moon in a Dewdrop as examples of the solution.
Towards the beginning of the dialogue, the Inquirer and the Japanese man talk about "a constant sense of danger which Count Kuki, too, could not
overcome" (Heidegger, 3). This danger, as later explained, is that everyone is influenced by their native languages, or else languages they speak. For
example, the Japanese man (as well as Count Kuki) is familiar

Dialogue As A Form Of Communication
In the last fifteen years or so, dialogue has become an important topic of discussion in the offices, workplaces and even in our neighbourhood. As a
result we ask ourselves what we really mean by organisational dialogue. According to William Isaaacs
During the dialogue process, people learn how to think together – not just in
The sense of analysing a shared problem or creating new pieces of shared
Knowledge, but in the sense of occupying a collective sensibility, in which
The thoughts, emotions, and resulting actions belong not to one individual,
But to all of them together. (William Isaacs, past director, MIT's Dialogue Project)

"Culture engineering approach" (see palmer and handy 2000) is also the name given to the top down in which it as presumed that the top management
of the company or an organisation has thorough knowledge of ideal values, behaviour and standards which is expected of every organisational member
so that they achieve the goals set by the organisation. Hence It can be said that top management have the ability and right to create, uphold and bring
the desired changes in the organisational culture. The same can be achieved through various human resource interventions such as reward management,
organizational development, communication strategies, training, management by objectives and performance management ((Armstrong 1990;
Thompson & Mabey 1994;Thornhill et. al.,2000). In a case study (Akmal putra sniba 2003) done on british airways various questions were asked to the
management regarding the various approaches adopted by the organisation to change the organisational culture. As a result it came out that top down
approach was adopted by british airways in which human resource interventions were organised, adding to that mangers gives training to employees to
make peoples value the focal point. Hence we can say that dialogue helped them to change their organisational culture for better communication
between the management and the employees. Other approach that is bottom up which means that the local members participate in decision making
regarding the strategies

Dialogue Paper : A Dialogue
Dialogue Paper After class, a student requested to speak to Professor Jones quickly. She had headphones hung loosely around her neck with a familiar
radio hit blaring through the speakers: Shut Up and Dance by Walk the Moon. Professor Smith, awaiting patiently for the student to finish talking, was
intrigued. He had heard that same song over the radio multiple times that week during his commute to and from the university. He figured he had the
song memorized by the amount of times he had heard it by now. His mental sing–along was interrupted when the student brushed past him before
jogging off, leaving the two professors alone. "I hear that song everywhere," Professor Smith began as he watched his colleague continue to pack
his things into a messenger bag on the table in front of them. "It's catchy," He shrugged as he closed the bag and swung it over his right shoulder.
Facing his colleague, Professor Smith took that as a cue to lead the way out of the classroom. "I mean, it's about something really anyone can
relate to, young or old." "What, heterosexual romance at a club?" Smith laughed as the two exited the building and fell into step beside each other
and started their trek across campus. "Well yeah, since a male singer is professing his love to a 'discotec Juliet', who we can only assume is a girl from
the way she's described." He agreed. "But, it's a song targeted at teenagers. I'm sure the boys can
