In this passage, the poignant of scene of Tanimoto running away from the horrors of the city to his eventual return in shame reveals much behind the motivation of his selfless actions in the aftermath of the bomb. While it may be correct to say that Tanimoto is kind-natured at heart, noted clearly by his heroic actions during this passage, Tanimoto is also driven by a survivor’s guilt, brought to bear by the actions of the people who commented on his relative health. It was not the charred bodies that littered the streets that brought him back, nor the city burning around him. At the end, it was shame that brought Tanimoto back, shame of not being injured and shame of being looked down upon. It is this very shame that drives his selfless actions…
In The Making of Europe, Christopher Dawson set out to rewrite European History from a European point-of-view to understand the unity of the common civilization instead of a national identity. He advocates for Europe to develop a common European consciousness and a sense of its historic and organic unity. Dawson argues that there should not be a separate history for each country, but a common history entertained with all. The Making of Europe adeptly corroborates Dawson’s thesis, while also addressing the reasons behind the fall of The Roman Empire as a result of turmoil in the Empire, classical tradition and Christianity, the Barbarian invasions, and the spread of Islam. Dawson’s book is about the people and cultures…
Milan Kundera’s famous essay, “The Tragedy of Central Europe” published on April 26, 1984 argues that central European nations like Poland, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia were losing their direction and meaning after World War II. “Boxed in by the Germans on one side and the Russians on the other, the nations of Central Europe have used up their strength in the struggle to survive and to preserve their languages” (Stokes, 219). Kundera makes a valid argument that the lack of Central European assimilation into the “consciousness of Europe” has hidden Eastern European countries from the West, weakening their traditions of statehood and eventually the “existence” of a Central Europe. How can the nations of Central Europe reclaim their identity and establish a solid united Central Europe after World War II?…
