Abstract: | Impressions of truth and liberty are time and space specific. Historically, works of art stand as material manifestations of the physical conversions required by ideologies in their "hailings" of individuals and reminders of those individuals' statuses as always-already subjects. Hence, delving into distant texts as sites of expression for these ideologies allows the reader to contrastively study the different formulations that may be made for truth and liberty. In my thesis, I will address the assumptions of Areopagitica, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell and The Matrix as well as provoke their ideals in order to expose the status of their liberty and pro-gression towards Truth as one that is in no sense absolute, but time and space specific. |
