Vik Muniz wanted to use everyday materials like trash to change the lives of others, similar to how the trash pickers in his home country of Brazil used discarded items to survive. He was inspired by Karl Marx's view of history being shaped by existing circumstances and T.S. Eliot's poem about trying to understand one's place amongst the ruins of past failures. Muniz recreated classic artworks using materials found in a Brazilian dump to give dignity to the lives of those who salvaged trash.

Jack London (1876-1916) was one of the highest paid and most critically acclaimed American writers of his time. He drew from his experiences as a sailor, living in Alaska, and working in farms and factories to passionately write about life, death, and the struggle to survive in works like "Call of the Wild." London often used naturalism and a socialist worldview in his fiction and non-fiction writing. Some of his most famous works explored life from a "Dog's perspective."

Hist a425 october 1917 and the civil war
The October Revolution of 1917 brought the Bolsheviks to power in a relatively bloodless coup, establishing a new Bolshevik regime led by Lenin and Trotsky. However, establishing socialist rule proved immensely challenging during the ensuing Russian Civil War. The Bolsheviks had to improvise policies of "War Communism" to industrialize rapidly and feed cities while fighting the Whites, foreign invaders, and rebellious peasants. By 1921, urban areas had largely collapsed and millions had died, leaving a new Soviet state and society amid the ruins of war.

Lynn Hunt argues that concepts of human nature and human rights emerged not from natural human essence, but from cultural developments in 18th century Europe. Through new media like novels, journalism, and realistic portraiture, middle class people were exposed to perspectives beyond their class and learned empathy. Novels used first-person narratives that gave intimate access to the inner lives of working class characters. Meanwhile, realistic portraiture depicted middle class figures in everyday settings rather than allegorical styles, fostering in viewers a new sense of individual autonomy and desire for freedom and rights. These cultural shifts are what enabled concepts like equality and inalienable rights rather than innate human traits.

The city both fosters art and is a form of art itself, creating theater and being the theater.

Ekphrasis
The document discusses form and content in language. It provides Ludwig Wittgenstein's definition of a fact as a combination of objects and explores how sentences can have the same content but different forms depending on word order. Examples are given of sentences with the same meaning but different structures, such as "The grass is green" and "Green is the grass". The document suggests form refers to how an idea is expressed through the arrangement of words while content is the actual meaning or idea being conveyed.
Ekphrasis
The document discusses Ludwig Wittgenstein's view that the world is made up of facts rather than things. It then explores the distinction between the content and form of sentences. Content refers to what a sentence means, while form refers to how the words are arranged.

The document then provides examples of various writing systems and formats to illustrate its points. It concludes by outlining the course requirements, which include essay assignments addressing different types of research and scholarship through multiple drafts and revisions with feedback. Students will be expected to complete substantial work independently while gaining new skills to succeed in future academic and professional pursuits

The document discusses the concept of empathy and how it relates to the development of human rights. It argues that 18th century novels, like Pamela, taught readers empathy by allowing them to experience the interior thoughts of characters from different social classes. Through intimate first-person narratives, readers could imaginatively see the world from another's perspective. This fostered the ability to empathize with those unlike themselves. The document contends that it was this newfound capacity for empathy, cultivated through cultural works like novels, that enabled people to recognize the equality and natural rights of all humans.

The document discusses form and content in language. It notes that content is what a sentence means, while form is how it is structured through word order. Examples are given of sentences that have the same content but different forms. The document also includes example sentences and asks the reader to determine if they have the same content and form as other examples.
Chronicle, story - drama, theme, plot
A chronicle simply recounts events in the order they occurred, while a story provides context about why events happened and what they may signify. A story can reorder events for dramatic purposes and to convey its themes. A chronicle lists two deaths, while a story may explain that the king died of grief after the queen and develop the plot further. Ordering events differently allows a story to explore causes and meanings beyond a basic chronology.
Writ 1133, arrangement
The document discusses four features of a strong arrangement in an academic writing: 1) It develops the thesis statement by explaining its key ideas, 2) It organizes these ideas in a logical and progressive sequence building to a climax, 3) It devotes most space to the most original, interesting, and/or controversial aspects of the thesis, and less space to less significant aspects, and 4) It stays focused on the thesis without straying. A strong arrangement also has an underlying organizing principle such as moving from simple to complex or cause to effect.
Tiedemann intro2

It then discusses the author's work with a nonprofit that established safe outdoor spaces for those experiencing homelessness.

The document considers options for redesigning a community-engaged writing course that balances field work, online learning, and writing time.
Teaching Online short course intro
John teaches writing and directs social justice programs. During the pandemic in 2020, he felt isolated at home but found relief through silly apps. He reflects that being homeless would have been far worse than being safely at home. He volunteers at Safe Outdoor Spaces, city-sanctioned encampments that provided shelter and services for unhoused people during the pandemic, where infections were prevented. These spaces are located near symbols of wealth and power to highlight the contrast between the housed and unhoused. John hopes to design a community-engaged writing course that combines fieldwork and online learning to better serve students.
Arrangement
The document outlines four features of a strong arrangement in an academic paper: 1) It develops the thesis statement by explaining its key ideas; 2) It organizes these ideas in a logically progressive sequence building to a climax; 3) It devotes most space to the most original, interesting, and/or controversial aspects of the thesis; 4) It does not stray from the central thesis. A climactic sequence should follow an organizing principle like moving from simple to complex, cause to effect, problem to solution, or least to most controversial.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
