The close reading and detailed analysis demonstrate that Samuel Johnson manages to redeem and restore the biographical subjects' (the poets') life, honor, and status in their different but similar biographies; that is, each biography is a redemptive text in its own way. In specific, the credible life story is re-presented with selected biographical materials, the poets' lives together with their achievements are reevaluated under Johnson's corrective observation, and Johnson's empathy with the poets reestablishes the reader's understanding of the poets' literary careers.展开更多

The Kite Runner tells a story of the experiences of an Afghan boy, Amir, who despicably betrays his brother of skinned and finally redeems himself in the rest of his life.The whole article aims to prove that it is the thorough transformation of social status, influence of religion and surroundings that push Amir to be a good man, realizing his self-redemption.Overall, the whole article consists of three chapters. Firstly, chapter one gives a brief explanation of its negative reasons for Amir's redemption, demonstrating the inside and outside factors of his compensation, such as Amir's betrayal which in turn promotes his self-salvation. Besides, the social status of the Amirs crashing down to the bottom no doubt provides him a great lesson; Secondly, chapter two shows the reason in a positive way. In terms of family, the huge change in his father obviously gives Amir more confidence in his road to be a good man. On the other hand, Hassan and Rahim Khan, the guiders of Amir definitely play an important role in Amir's redemption. Finally, Amir's self-redemption journey is drawn in chapter three.

I would pay attention to the latter part of the suffering notion, where the notion of suffering is recognized to be primitive by almost all the theories of human values. This primitive character allows a commensurable basis on the basis of which most plural theories share something in common to talk objectively to each other. In this paper, I would like to offer three arguments in order to advance a thesis that one's suffering is redemptive of others. First, the conservation law of mass says that matter of a closed system can neither be created nor destroyed, although it may be differently rearranged. This may be applied to the experience of suffering, to allow the conservation law of suffering: My unjust self-interest costs pains in others to the level of the same amount but if I voluntarily suffer a sacrifice, others will have their pains lightened to the analogous level. Second, notion of yin-yang helps to support the redemptive thesis of suffering. The notion says that all things in the reality consist of two complementary opposite Capacities that interact within a greater whole, as part of a dynamic system. Then, my acceptance of suffering and the decrease of other's pain are two complementary capacities of one reality. Third, any person is responsible for his own act, so is a society as a whole. Then, as an individual restores his damaged person, when he commits a crime, by being suffered or punished, a society restores itself to its own proper state, when any member of the society is wronged, by suffering communally in one way or other.展开更多

Firstly, it examines Dexter's final twist in plot and the decision Dexter makes to finally embrace his "dark passenger" to argue for the necessity of the plot twist to the series, which scholarship has not yet performed. Secondly, by situating Dexter's decision within a framework focused on reproductive futurism, a revised and more nuanced approach to Dexter's ontological dilemma can be proffered. Finally, by locating Dexter's dark passenger within the theoretical frames of reproductive futurism and community this article adds an important dimension to notions of the monster conventionally rooted in theories of identity and subjectivity. In the final moments of the series everything changes for Dexter as his identity is redeemed for a reproductive future without guarantees, which this article argues is germane to considerations ofbiopolitics and community in the contemporary period.展开更多
