From Civil Disobedience After all, the practical reason why, when the power is once in the hands of the people, a majority are permitted, and for a long period
continue to rule is not because they are most likely to be in the right, nor because this seems fairest to the minority, but because they are physically
the strongest. But a government in which the majority rule in all cases cannot be based on justice, even as far as men understand it. Can there not
be a government in which majorities do not virtually decide right and wrong, but conscience?-in which majorities decide only those questions to
which the rule of expediency is applicable? Must the citizen ever for a moment, or in the least degree, resign his conscience to the legislator? Why
has every man a conscience, then? I think that we should be men first, and subjects afterward. It is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so
much as for the right. The only obligation which I have a right to assume is to do at any time what I think right.
(from "Civil Disobedience" by Henry David Thoreau)
What is the effect of the oxymoron "Civil Disobedience"?
01. It describes a principle: civilians must use legal action to disobey the will of the majority.
02. It establishes a tone: if a government is uncivilized, it cannot expect citizens to obey the law.
O 3. It highlights a problem: to be civilized, citizens must conform rather than obey their consciences.
04. It illustrates a theme: standing by one's conscience is more civilized than simply obeying the majority.

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
