Real Likenesses presents a radical new approach to artistic representation. At its heart is a serious reconsideration of the relationship between medium and content in representational art, which counters currently dominant theories that make attention to the former inevitably a distraction from attending to the latter. Through close analysis of paintings, photographs, and novels, Michael Morris proposes a new understanding of the real likenesses we encounter in representational a...

This book participates in the modern recovery of the memory of the long-forgotten relationship between Scotland and the Caribbean. Drawing on theoretical paradigms of world literature and transnationalism, it argues that Caribbean slavery profoundly shaped Scotland’s economic, social and cultural development, and draws out the implications for current debates on Scotland’s national narratives of identity. Eighteenth- to nineteenth-century Scottish writers are re-examined in this new light....

We as human beings are the climax of a 13.8-billion-year overture. It extends from the "Big Bang" until now. Through the experience of bereavement, a powerful correlation is developed in this book between the Science of this process and the Bible. God was there already, before "the beginning." Then He said, "Let it be!" and there it was. How did we get here from there and where are we going?Do you ever wonder how the universe began?Do you think science and faith can be reco...

Ideology critique generally seeks to undermine selected theories and beliefs by demonstrating their partisan origins and their insidious social functions. This approach rightly reveals the socially implicated nature of much purported knowledge, but also brackets or bypasses its cognitive properties. In contrast, Michael Morris argues that it is possible to integrate the social and epistemic dimensions of belief in a way that preserves the cognitive and adjudicatory capacities of reason, wh...

One day, I came home from work, and my son was at the dinner table playing with his toy dinosaurs. As I settled in on the couch to watch TV, I noticed how much fun he was having and wanted to play too. I sat down at the table with him and began to explain to me what he was doing. He told me how he was making his two favorite T. rex dinosaurs arm wrestle. He explained to me how the smaller one was the arm wrestling champ because he was so small that he has the most power. That's how the sto...

There is no going back to the old "normal". What you used to know as "your life" is no more. This rebuilding phase, disguised as a "pandemic", has been well prepared and none of this has to do with a virus or a health hazard. In 2019, a great reset of the monetary, economic and political system was long overdue. The tension could be felt everywhere. The elite, the "Secret World Government" finally wanted to implement their "New World Order". They were tired of the delusion of free election...
