I really liked the course "Introduction to Korean Philosophy". First, in the very first lesson, I learned what philosophy consists of. I also learned that Western philosophy meets East Asian Philosophy. Second, I discovered that Chinese and Korean philosophies are interlinked. The second week was all about cultural innovation and Hangul, the Korean alphabet. It was very interesting to read that it includes the ideas of heaven, earth, man, Yin and Yang. In the third week, it was about emotions. It also talked about various philosophical debates and how they influenced further Korean philosophy. Most of all this week I remember the concept of mind-heart, to tell you about it, they gave a very interesting and memorable example, about Koreans who paid in a restaurant. In the fourth week, we learned about the concept of "Uni", which means the Korean "we" as an extended "I". Also, the whole lesson was devoted to eternal questions, where we had to come up with them ourselves. I also want to note that at the end of each week there were tests that helped to repeat the material passed, and if the selected answer was not correct, then a hint or lesson number appeared, which can be revised to correctly answer the question. In general, I am very happy that I chose this course! I ask everyone to take this course, even if you did not understand philosophy before, this course will help you do it. Also, if you are interested in Korean culture, you will be very interested to read about the Korean alphabet, why it was created and why it looks exactly like this. I assume that everyone will be satisfied after taking a course in Korean philosophy.If this course had lasted longer, I would have been happy to take it further.

✨Review of a course✨
🎆Review of a book🎆
Hi🖐 everyone! I recently read a very interesting book🧨 and wanted to
write a review on it so that others can understand whether to read it or not.
And now I want to share it with you, I hope that you will like it. If you like it, you can write to me about it in the comments.
Writing a War Story is a story that
is not like the rest of the works of Edith Walter. The stories that were
written before this story were serious, and in" Writing a War Story"
the author uses irony. I haven't read much about her biography, but I know that
during the First World War I worked as a journalist, traveling along the front
lines. She reflected on her military trips in numerous articles. For her active
assistance to refugees, the French Government awarded her the Legion of Honor
in 1916. The story is about Ivy Spang, an underage writer who was asked to
write a short story for publication, distributed among the soldiers in the
hospital. At first, Ivy seemed to like the soldiers very much, until the moment
when she discovered that the good reception of her novel owed much to the
flattering photograph of the author in a nurse's uniform accompanying the text.
I liked this book because Ed Walter wrote a satirical story. It also touches on
the gender theme. It was interesting to see how an inexperienced writer can be
baffled by incorrect praise. I think that this book will appeal to everyone,
regardless of what they like and want to read. If a person just starts reading, he will not be able to stop. I recommend you to read this book otherwise you will not understand many of the topics covered in it. I also claim that it is necessary to read such a role of work to children, before they grow up. In cases where a person did not like serious works, he still liked it, because it reveals important topics for society, and I think everyone will find something interesting in it.

Hi everybody!🖐 Today I wanted to share with you my essay📃, in which I highlighted some parts of speech and suffixes in different colors for grammar training, I hope that this will help you improve your knowledge.📚
«Frankenstein, or the modern Prometheus»,
is a novel by the English writer Mary Shelley, which was written in 1818. This
work was her first creation. The book was written in the style of a Gothic novel. A Gothic novel is a work based on the
reader's pleasant sense of horror, a romantic «black novel» in prose with
elements of supernatural «horror», mysterious adventures, science fiction and mysticism. One of the main and dominant themes in the novel is the theme of love. Love is one of the feelings that is given to many in life. We can say that this is a feeling that makes you kinder, purer,
more perfect.
Love has many faces. This is love-friendship, love-cooperation,
love-passion, love-tragedy. In the novel, you can find answers, for example, to such questions as «How is love shown
in the novel?», «Does every living being need
love?», « What is the relationship between the main characters?» and so on. And the fact that will remain the same is
that we all need love. Every living being is
worthy of love, who should we love? The answer is simple — love those who are dear to you, those whom you call relatives,
those who really deserve this feeling.
So everyone calls Frankenstein a monster, but is it really so
in the book, the creation of Frankenstein is not so much
a villain as a deeply tragic character. All the murders committed by him are not connected with
the manifestation of animal cruelty or thoughtless thirst for blood. In some cases, he is forced to do this by
circumstances. In the focus of Monster’s cruelty and non-humanity,
there lies his hunger for a parental love. After he escapes from his creator,
he first recognizes his own ugliness when he sees his reflection
on the water and than gives meaning to people’s strange attitudes towards him when they see him. The
awareness of their own worthlessness,
ugliness and uselessness developed negative traits in the monster. He wanted to
take revenge on his creator for the fact that no one loves him, that Victor disowned him, and for
the fact that he is the only one in this world with his own peculiarity. The monster, through
his actions, is repaying Frankenstein for what he has put him through. The monster did not
ask to be created, he did not ask for any of what he suffered through. But when
he asked for a friend, a girl who would be just like him. Frankenstein refused,
he was again afraid of bad consequences after such a "union". It turns out that the
monster is a child who is simply not needed by his parent. He could feel and reason,
and that makes him human. The fault was in Victor Frankenstein, who could not
teach the monster good deeds and did not give his creation bright feelings. And revenge and murder are not taught.
That is why he is left to himself, decides to find a way out by himself. He saw
happy families, perfect families, and he wanted just the
same. And the best solution was to deprive the family of the one who
created it. To make Frankenstein feel what it's like to be left without a
family, without loved
ones and relatives. But in the end, he failed, after the revenge, people do not
know what to do next, as well as a monster who no longer sees the point of being in this world as an
"alien". This love story shows that even monsters need their own
people.
M.Shelly showed love in all its forms. After reading this work, the reader asks a lot of questions. And love is the key
word in all of them. Should the monster's love for the world count? Or do such beings have no right to love and be loved? These are complex questions, the answer to which is not given. But love is affection,
recognition, and compassion. Lack of love can have a detrimental effect on a person. Therefore, the end is what it should be. M.Shelley wrote a novel
where the theme of love is a powerful weapon, but whether it will benefit or harm, everyone decides in
their own way.

My essay💥
Hi everyone!!!✌
I
recently wrote an essay on the difference between a Frankenstein book and a
theater production. And I would like to share it with you. I hope you like it💖💖💖
A
person needs emotions.. Not just
even emotions, but strong emotions that are simply not able to provide us with
the speculative constructions of literary books. Of course, while reading, our brain
draws pictures that are rarely even in a dream, a stunning mix of colors and
scenes, but this requires a lot of effort.
A
book and a play in a theater actually make a difference. First, the play does
not show much, because the book is too big. They remove, as in their opinion,
little important points, but this is not so, because every even small part is
very important for a deeper understanding of the text. To understand the
sequence of events. but I want to say that on the stage we are sitting,
everything is clear, there are props, costumes of actors who can immerse the
audience in that time and feel themselves in that situation.
In conclusion, I would like to say that both the play and the book are good, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, but it is still interesting to watch the play even after reading it.
