Answer: <em>forte</em> (dynamics)
Explanation: In music and musical performance, the levels of volume are called dynamics, whether it's an instrument or voice making the sound/tone. Most musical terms printed on music are in Italian. Among the loudest dynamics are mf, which means <em>mezzo-forte</em> (moderately loud), f, which means <em>forte</em> (loud), ff, which means <em>fortissimo</em> (very loud, louder than f), and fff, which means <em>fortississimo</em> (extremely loud, louder than ff). If the performer is singing, then here is an example to help you better understand dynamics: <em>f</em> would be louder than speaking, <em>ff</em> would be like speaking very loudly, and <em>fff</em> would be more like yelling. All of these measurements are relative to the other musicians performing around the ones who are making specific tones/notes/musical passages stand out as loud.
I think, based on the options provided for the answers that the correct response would be (d). As a focus of producing works with the physical form was not permitted. There are a few schools of thought on the subject... one is that only god can create the physical form so to do so would be as though you are aligning yourself at gods level and his creativity. While another thought is that the figure form is not allowed due the a concern that the art might then promote idolatry which was seen as a contradiction of the oneness of God. So while some patterns express symmetry they are not minimally colored and are quite the opposite. It is thought that the geometric patterns are more representational as a reflection of God’s infinite creations and should allow for spiritual contemplation and growth... which leads me to believe (d) is the correct choice.
Answer:
The personality theory is revised to state that the key to personal identity is having the same personality provided that there is no branching, that is, provided there is no transfer or duplication of the same personality from one body to another. Similar “no branching” requirements are added to the other theories as well. At the end of class, Professor Kagan suggests a shift from thinking about the survival of the soul in terms of “what does it take to survive?” to “what is it that matters in survival?”.
