Structure
From 1839 when it was invented, photography has served to create portraits of individuals, and soon thereafter portraits of families, later placed in photo albums.Photography, collected and archived, entered the intimate sphere, enabling people to arrange the fragmented images of their lives as they saw fit.Following its forerunners (miniature portraits, silhouettes, physionotraces), the photographic portrait also served the new expectations of the emerging urban bourgeoisie and its need for social representation.Studios opened up in cities everywhere to meet the fast growing demand.In addition, the new medium distinguishted itself with its esthetic superiority. "Even as it emerged, although the technique was still very primitive, photography enjoyed an exceptional quality of artistic finish (Gisele Freund)".What can photography show us to day of the visible and invisible aspects of family sociology? "How do the roles we expect them to play betray the emotional realities and complexities of lived life?" wonders Daniel Mendelsohn, in his introduction entitled "Unknown Faces/ Redeeming Structures".By creating this corpus of fixed black and white images, each composed in a large 5'x7' frame, the photographer has produced a work of anthropological scope, reaching beyond representation by placing the subject at palpable distance, thereby objectifying it.What should we think of these seemingly impassive faces and their hypnotic gazes, what should we think of these postures, seated or standing?What goes on within these families and outside the frame?The use of a rigid protocol similar in all sessions makes every family portraits intriguing, and encourages our reflection.Inspired by the work of Bernd and Hilla Becher, whose esthetics of objectivity tended towards minimalism, Isabelle Boccon-Gibod, a self-made artist, with an interest for technique, has played with a frontality quite similar to that of the Bechers, resting on the idea that our bodies, when joined together, form a sort of architecture.The idea, also, that a face, deprived of its smile, offers a neutrality of expression worth considering: masks fall and reveal a nakedness (naked truth?) to be admired and deciphered beyond the appearances of social games.She was guided, yet not limited, by this principle: the image of a family seen as a facade-like structure, in which faces are the windows.

The Ritual Process : Structure and Anti-Structure
In The Ritual Process: Structure and Anti-Structure, Victor Turner examines rituals of the Ndembu in Zambia and develops his now-famous concept of "Communitas." He characterizes it as an absolute inter-human relation beyond any form of structure. The Ritual Process has acquired the status of a small classic since these lectures were first published in 1969.Turner demonstrates how the analysis of ritual behavior and symbolism may be used as a key to understanding social structure and processes.He extends Van Gennep's notion of the "liminal phase" of rites of passage to a more general level, and applies it to gain understanding of a wide range of social phenomena.Once thought to be the "vestigial" organs of social conservatism, rituals are now seen as arenas in which social change may emerge and be absorbed into social practice. As Roger Abrahams writes in his foreword to the revised edition: "Turner argued from specific field data.His special eloquence resided in his ability to lay open a sub-Saharan African system of belief and practice in terms that took the reader beyond the exotic features of the group among whom he carried out his fieldwork, translating his experience into the terms of contemporary Western perceptions.Reflecting Turner's range of intellectual interests, the book emerged as exceptional and eccentric in many ways: yet it achieved its place within the intellectual world because it so successfully synthesized continental theory with the practices of ethnographic reports."

What is the difference between honest and sincere?
Honesty refers to telling the truth and being straightforward in one's communication, while sincerity refers to being genuine and heartfelt in one's actions and expressions. In other words, honesty is about being truthful and transparent, while sincerity is about being genuine and authentic. One can be honest without being sincere, and vice versa. For example, someone can be honest about their feelings but not sincerely express them, or someone can sincerely express themselves but not be completely honest.
-
Are there still honest, genuine people?
Yes, there are still honest and genuine people in the world. While it may sometimes seem like dishonesty and insincerity are prevalent, there are still many individuals who value honesty and authenticity in their interactions with others. These people can be found in all walks of life, and their integrity and genuineness can have a positive impact on those around them. It's important to recognize and appreciate these individuals and strive to embody those qualities ourselves.
-
Why can't honest, sincere people be found anywhere anymore?
It is not accurate to say that honest and sincere people cannot be found anymore. While it may seem that way due to increased instances of dishonesty and insincerity in the world, there are still many individuals who uphold these values. It is important to seek out and surround oneself with people who prioritize honesty and sincerity, as they do exist in every community and society. Building strong relationships with trustworthy individuals can help counteract the perception that these qualities are lacking in today's world.

Why can't one find honest, sincere people anywhere anymore?
It may seem challenging to find honest and sincere people nowadays due to various factors such as societal pressures, individualistic mindsets, and the prevalence of dishonesty in certain environments. In a fast-paced and competitive world, some individuals may prioritize personal gain over honesty, leading to a lack of sincerity in interactions. Additionally, the rise of technology and social media can sometimes create a facade of perfection, making it difficult to discern genuine sincerity from superficiality. Despite these challenges, there are still honest and sincere people out there, and cultivating authentic relationships based on trust and integrity can help in finding them.

Structure and Equivalence
This Element explores what it means for two theories in physics to be equivalent (or inequivalent), and what lessons can be drawn about their structure as a result.It does so through a twofold approach. On the one hand, it provides a synoptic overview of the logical tools that have been employed in recent philosophy of physics to explore these topics: definition, translation, Ramsey sentences, and category theory.On the other, it provides a detailed case study of how these ideas may be applied to understand the dynamical and spatiotemporal structure of Newtonian mechanics - in particular, in light of the symmetries of Newtonian theory.In so doing, it brings together a great deal of exciting recent work in the literature, and is sure to be a valuable companion for all those interested in these topics.

Structure and Function
The history of biology is mottled with disputes between two distinct approaches to the organic world: structuralism and functionalism.Their persistence across radical theory change makes them difficult to characterize: the characterization must be abstract enough to capture biologists with diverse theoretical commitments, yet not so abstract as to be vacuous.This Element develops a novel account of structuralism and functionalism in terms of explanatory strategies (Section 2).This reveals the possibility of integrating the two strategies; the explanatory successes of evolutionary-developmental biology essentially depend on such integration (Section 3).Neither explanatory strategy is universally subordinate to the other, though subordination with respect to particular explanatory tasks is possible (Section 4).Beyond structuralism and functionalism, philosophical analysis that centers explanatory strategies can illuminate conflicts within evolutionary theory more generally (Section 5).

What are structure charts?
Structure charts are visual representations of a program's architecture, showing the modules or components of a system and how they interact with each other. They help in understanding the overall design of a software system by illustrating the hierarchy and relationships between different parts of the program. Structure charts are commonly used in software engineering to aid in the design and development process, as well as in documenting and communicating the system's structure to stakeholders.

Is this structure correct?
Without knowing the specific structure in question, it is difficult to determine if it is correct. However, in general, a correct structure should follow the rules of grammar and syntax, have a clear and logical organization, and effectively convey the intended message. If you provide more details about the specific structure you are referring to, I would be happy to help you determine if it is correct.

How can the terms surface structure and deep structure be easily explained?
Surface structure refers to the actual words and phrases used in a sentence, while deep structure refers to the underlying meaning and relationships between the words. A simple way to understand this is to think of surface structure as the way a sentence is actually written or spoken, while deep structure is the underlying message or intention behind the words. For example, the surface structure of the sentence "The cat chased the mouse" is the actual words used, while the deep structure is the idea that the cat is pursuing the mouse.
