Cicero/On Obligation
(6 Pages, 71.7 USD)
|
|
A 6 page essay that summarizes the major points from Cicero's treatise on obligations. The writer argues that this brilliant philosopher's observations on what constitutes honorable and useful behavior remains applicable as a useful guide to the modern reader. Cicero divided his text into three books. The first book deals with his thoughts on honorable acts, the second on useful and the third addresses conflict between honorable acts and seemingly useful acts. In his introduction to his translation of On Obligation, P.G. Walsh points out that Cicero insisted that that conflict only existed between honorable acts and "apparently" useful acts, as "Cicero argues throughout that the intrinsically useful is identical with the honorable" (xxiii). This examination of On Obligation summarizes Cicero's major points in this text before providing discussion. No additional sources cited.

Plays of Comedy which Overcome Obstacles of Death and Dark Themes
(5 Pages, 59.75 USD)
|
|
This is a 5 page paper discussing two plays which manage to overcome the obstacle of death. David Ives’ “All in the Timing” and Michael Frayn’s “Noises Off” are two plays which manage to overcome death and dark themes by skilful timing and framing of dark elements within lighter and farcical works. In both plays death is so close yet comical elements keep the characters at an unreal distance from it thereby not making it a powerful obstacle to overcome. In “All in the Timing” which contains six one act plays, Ives frames the last 36 hours of Trotsky’s death by the one act play proceeding it “The Universal Language” and the one act play which follows it “Philadelphia” which both included elements of the ridiculous while the Trotsky play itself manages to overcome its dark content by Trotsky’s fear of ice picks all the while having a mountaineer’s axe wedged in his head. “Noises Off” on the other hand is a three act play which shows the onstage production of a farcical and bad play called “Nothing On” in acts one and three while the dark and conniving backstage life of the actors and actresses are shown in act two. Surrounded by the unreal and comical acts of one and three does an adequate job of lightening the content of act two, but act two itself contains a large amount of slap stick and physical comedy which lightens the elements of death and successfully continues in its comic frame. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Some of the multitude of Codes of Practice are discussed, such as those ACAS issued in 2000 regarding Disciplinary and Grievance Procedures. Many of the changes in the 2002 Act were actually enacted prior to this Act, such as the qualifying years of service for unfair dismissal claims and the increase in the maximum awards. Tribunal cases are used to illustrate why a tribunal may find the dismissal fair or unfair. Data regarding the number of cases going to tribunals are reported as a justification for changes in the procedures. The writer comments on whether the 2002 Act was more advantageous to the employer or the employee as compared to the 1996 Act and its subsequent revisions. Data are included.
