Dipicting Decartes Explanation of God
In Descartes's passage it seems as if he is trying to prove the existence of God by creating a simple argument. By comparing different images, Descrates attempts to prove that God does not exist, and then invalidates the argument by looking deeper into the comparison of images to prove, the exact opposite, that God exists. Descartes first preface explains that the mere fact that he can imagine a mountain with a valley, does not mean

Aesthetics of Invisible Man
Aesthetics of Invisible Man Ralph Ellison painstakingly crafted a separate world in Invisible Man , a novel that succeeds because it is an intricate aesthetic creation -- humane, compassionate, and yet gloriously devoid of a moral. Social comment is neither the aim nor the drive of art, and Ellison did not attempt to document a plight. He created a place where race is reflected and distorted, where pithy generalities are dismissed, where personal and aesthetic

This idea can be expressed through a claim. In The Odyssey, through skyward images, organic similes, and dynamic epithets, Homer muses that deities have supreme control over all actions in the world. As a result of skyward images, the gods are portrayed as superior
