PUB #3: Unfiltered Human Flaw

I absolutely loved the short story/postmodernism unit because examples of its effects can be seen in just about any form of modern media, so understanding this topic wasn't difficult. We focused on authenticity, human flaw, and perspective.

“And if it’s an illusion, I don’t want to wake up” - SZA’s mom: 3/2/2023   https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxapveNEUcgZVdhlx10Ztob86XS-cgbRoC (if the video isn't clipped, skip to 2:49 <3) A Streetcar Named Desire focused on darker themes, although Antigone was intense, it is known that it is a legend, its exact scenario has a low chance of taking place in the modern world.

And it is the stepping stone of many forms of media such as art, poetry, music, performances, movies, and many more. The introductory lecture given on Jan. 26th set the tone for the remainder of the semester, and it is one of my favorite lectures because we discussed accountability, control, moral compass, and Professor Brady presented Antigone in preparation for in-class discussions. As a class, we were introduced to several themes in Antigone, including protection of personal dignity, loyalty/obligation to family, freedom, protection of community or nation, observance of law, and obedience to authority/law.  The class did a mini-activity, where we were told to rank the themes from most to least important. The feedback varied, everyone had a different answer. I ranked the protection of personal dignity as the most important because I...
