John Cooper Clarke


I am an admire of punk rock music, that is why it was interesting for me to find out some information about John Cooper Clarke from the article called “Send us your questions for John Cooper Clarke...”

John Clarke, as you probably know, is the original punk poet, and he does not afraid to be radical. He has a big life experience, so he is a very interesting person to listen to. “Grampa” John affects different spheres in his works from social to even politics. And idea is that he writes in everyday words, without a gloss on things (with expletives and gags, simply put). In the article you can find some of his cool expressions. However, the main idea of the article is to encourage punk lovers to make up questions to John Clarke. I promise, I will! I also hope you are interested (or have got interested) in this person too, so do not forget to follow the link and send out some curious questions.

Task 12

Should Celebrities Be Allowed to Keep Their Lives Private? Recently I have read an article written by a Justin Bieber’s fan, where she was complaining about him and his rude reaction on her friendly request to snap a selfie.   This story made me think about celebrities and their rights. Are they allowed to keep their private lives without the invention of fans and media? Or their choice of profession implies a permanent attention? Let us weigh all the pros and cons and decide whether they are to have their private lives, or they must just deal with the “occupational hazard”. On the first hand, speaking about the profession chosen by celebrities, we cannot deny the fact that being a “star” means being popular and under discussion. This is a huge business which makes a great deal of money. Then, being followed by the media is the best way for PR. For instance, Olga Buzova has become popular only with the help of the mass media and people who published photos with her. ...

Are you happy with your body?

Cosmetic Surgery Nowadays the problem of cosmetic surgery is extremely popular and up-to-date. On the one hand, there are so many women who try to copy the features of flawless plastic dolls, like Barbie, widening their eyes, making nostrils smaller, putting collagen into their lips, adding implants, and so on. On the other hand, lots of women (and men also) protest and insist on accepting your own features. Thus, let us discuss the all the pros and cons to make up a conclusion about this controversial problem. Speaking about advantages of cosmetic surgery, the most people say that it gives them more confidence. If you are not satisfied with your lips, why do not you change it to be more self-assured? Maybe the nature did a mistake that makes you suffer? Moreover, such people say that there is nothing special in having a cosmetic surgery, because it is similar to having your hair dyed or teeth straightened. They claim that it is just a way to be well maintained. Nevertheless t...

Forbidden Love

Изображение
The Lovers II, 1928 by Rene Magritte It is obvious that the first thing that catches attention of a viewer is the kissing figures, placing in the foreground. Moreover, the woman and the man are kissing through the veils, which cover their faces and necks like a mask. Their clothes are rather official: the woman is wearing a red sleeveless dress, and the man is in a black suit, with a white shirt and a black tie. Speaking about the background, I can say that it is quite unremarkable, without any details or anything special, just two walls: a dark-blue on the most part of the background, and a bricked red one in the right; and a white ceiling in the top. Judging by the veils covering the lovers’ faces, they are seemed to be hiding, in addition, the room where they are staying is without any windows. Thus, taking into account all mentioned above, I suppose that here the act of passion creates a tense, mysterious atmosphere, where the lovers must have been frightened. Looking at t...
