Muse - Uprising music video

How do the song lyrics and the video help develop the theme of Chaos and Revolution? To what extent does the lyric speaker show confidence and trust?

 In the video the theme of Chaos and Revolution is represented by:

• The city  is destroyed and some parts are on fire, thats show the city is in a bad condition and in a sort of chaos like something (a revolution maybe)
• During all the video teddy bears are shown like if they are bad,(maybe) like if they control the people. Also one of the guitarist destroyed a window were there where televisions with teddy bears on them. Another thing with teddy bears is that the people are burning them.
• After burning the teddy bears, some of them that are buried start resurrecting like zombies, and they start causing chaos on the city (they are destroying it).

All this elements on the video generate the sensation of Chaos and Revolution.

The lyrics help develop the theme of Chaos an Revolution, because they are always saying that they are not going to be control, they are going to take the power.

• Interchanging mind control,
  Come let the revolution take it's toll,
  If you could flick a switch and open your third eye,
  You'd see that
  We should never be afraid to die....
• ...Rise up and take the power back...
• ...They will not force us,
  They will stop degrading us,
  They will not control us,
  We will be victorious
  So come on...

In these parts of the song we can see that they are calling to a revolution, they want to stop the Chaos that is at the place where they are.

The lyric speaker shows confidence in the way that his voice is always in a powerful/deep way, he is also, in some parts, saying each word in 2-3 seconds and that make a sensation of power in his voice.

Imre Kertesz interview

1-Before the interview, the presenter visits a monument to the Holocaust created by the American artist Peter Eiserman. Considering the shapes, architecture and general design, in what ways do you think he represents the reality in the concentration camps?

 The artist Peter Eiserman represents the reality in the concentration camps by using big rectangular concrete structures, with that structures he shows the felling of imprisonment that the Jews felt when they were at the concentration camps. They couldn't do anything about being at the camps, the same felling you have when you are surrounded by concrete walls, you can't do nothing about.

2-Which is the paradox the presenter mentions regarding Imre Kertész and the place where he lives?

 The paradox is that he feels free, more than any where else in Europe, is in Berlin, the capital of the country that once wanted to kill him, than his own country.

3-Refer to antisemitism before and after Auschwitz according to Kertész.

 The ones who are antisemites after Auschwitz want a new Auschwitz while the ones that are/were before don't want a new Auschwitz.

4-In what way do reminders of the past in historical books make us “much richer”?

 The remainders of the past in historical books can make us much richer because they give use the information of what happened in the past, so (in the case of the Holocoust) if we don't study it and know about it, it will happen again.

5-Which metaphor does Imre use to exemplify the effect of FATELESSNESS on its readers?

"It continued to worry our souls, and now it knocks from inside that cabinet where we thought we had locked it up" The effect that Imre metaphor is trying to show is that the readers, even if they say that the Holocoust happened a long time ago, the memories of that time, of the things that happened in that time are disturbing the people, they remember the suffering that happened at that time.

Study session 1

14 - Pronouns and possessives

Pronouns:

-In very formal situations we use "whom" as the object form of who.

e.g: To whom were you talking?

-In more formal situations we can use "one" to tal about people in general.

e.g: Does one need a visa to go to Cyprus

-We use "it" to replace a "the + noun" and "a/an + one"

e.g: The work was hard but it was well-paid

You could buy a farm..., and we decide to buy one.

-We can use "one" or "ones" as a pronoun with a determiner or adjective

e.g: I've got two brothers, an older one and younger one.

I guess we were among the lucky ones.

-We use possessive determiners

-/ myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, oneself, ourselves,yourselves & themselves

e.g: It was hard to leave our friends.

-We use possessive pronouns

-/ mine, yours, his, hers, ours & theirs

e.g: Ours was small for America// farm

-Use the pronouns whatever and whoever to mean "it doesn't matter what/ who" or "I don't know what/who"

e.g: They would give them whatever help they needed.

Possessives:

-To make a possessive from a noun, we add "'s". we add and an apostrophe (') to regular plurals and we add "'s" to irregular plurals.

e.g: What's the baby's name?

What are the babies' names?

-To make a possessive from a long noun phrase, we add 's at the end./*we don't use apostrophe on possessive pronouns*/

e.g: We stayed in my cousin and his wife's house.

Linking words

-When we use yet as a conjunction, it means but.

e.g: I was tired, and yet I knew I had to keep walking.

-Most conjunction can come before or between the two parts they connect.// like because

-The conjunction and, but, yet, for, or, nor & so can only be in between. Sometimes they can start a new sentences.

-Sometimes for can be use as because.

-and, or, nor, but & yet to join words or phrases.

-Linking prepositions are often followed by “verb + -ing” or “the fact + clause”// last one with despite

Ellipsis and substitution.

-Ellipsis = we leave out a word -Substitution= we replace a word

-In informal conversation we often omit that at the start of that-clauses/relative clauses

e.g: The test was so stressful THAT I forgot everything

- We some times omit the subject “and be” after if, when while, although, once, as if or as though.

e.g:If in doubt.... If YOU'RE in doubt

-We often omit words after AND, OR or BUT

e.g: WE HAVE read your proposal and (WE HAVE) accept it

-We can use auxiliary or modal verbs when we omit the main verb. If these is not possible use do/did

e.g: I didn't watch the film, but perhaps I should have

-Don't use ellipsis when the repeated nouns refer to different things. Use one.

e.g: I've got a blue car and she's got a red one.

-Don't use ellipsis for the object of a verb/preposition. Use one or another pronoun.

e.g: I enjoyed the film, but she hated it

-We often omit repeated articles or determiners./*like the something and something nor like the something and the something*/

- We can leave out repeated articles with adjectives.

e.g: I'll be wearing a red hat and scarf(red scarf)

I'll be wearing a red hat and a scarf(any colour scarf)

-In conversation we often leave out repeated words.

-We often omit at when we talk about time

- We use echo statements to add more, similar, information to what someone has said these also use ellipsis. Echo statements have three parts:

So                       Modal verb(can/          subject pronoun

Neither/Nor              will,etc.)                  (I, you,etc.)

                              Auxiliary verb           possessive

                             (am/did,etc.)               pronoun (mine /

                                                                ours,etc.)

- Several common grammar structure use ellipsis and substitution

-question tags: isn't it? Aren't I?

-Short answers: Yes, you are.

-Echo questions. Are you?

-While texting we often omit words that are usually necessary such as subjects, auxiliary verbs or articles.

e.g: Must go(I must go)

gtg( got to go)... I got to go

-Nice to meet you, first time meeting the person

-Nice meeting you, after talking to some you met for the firs time
