One eminent philosopher has given a direct response to this question. Namely, Ludwig Wittgenstein contended that Logic is about the boundaries of reality. Although it's not necessary, perhaps we should say a little about Wittgenstein's professor and the eminent philosopher Bertrand Russell. According to Russell, logic is the fundamental structure of all language. That all sentences have an underlying structure that followed the rules of logic, such that logic is, perhaps, about the structure of language. Taking this idea in a much different direction (the early) Wittgenstein argues that logic structures the limits of our thinking. For Wittgenstein our thinking is shaped by our language. That is, when we think of the Cartesian doubting whether anyone else has ever thought, whether he or she is the only one who is really thinking, Wittgenstein denies this altogether. Specifically, the only reason the Cartesian can think is because they have been immersed in a language (This, with the development of psychology, linguistics, etcetera, has proved dubious). So, in essence, language shapes our thinking, but it also shapes the way we understand reality. According to Wittgenstein language describes situations or states of affairs. That is, it gives us pictures of reality. If I say, "Tomorrow it will rain," on the early Wittgenstein's view, this is "painting" a picture of reality. What is more, language describes reality, such that it is reality. What we know about reality and how we describe reality is only expressed through language. Thus, when we want to understand reality, we want to know not just what it is at the moment, but how it might be. Here comes the punch line. Logic tells us the limits on how the world might be or can be. For instance, it's an incontrovertible fact of logic that one thing cannot be in two places at the same time. It is true in all possible worlds that P and not-P is false. Thus, we can use this as a limit on how the world might be. For instance, I cannot be both in Tokyo and not in Tokyo (say in Los Angeles) simultaneously; it cannot be both raining and not raining in the same place at the same time (strictly speaking); and so on. In this sense, logic, according the Wittgenstein tells us what the structure and limits of reality are. Specifically, they form the boundaries of our thinking and language

Excerpt, and some sites: Rembrandt's subject matter was as diverse as Amsterdam and he etched myriad intimate observations from everyday life including scenes of beggars, children, animals, and various people at their professions. Many of these "genre" pieces capture the same psychological intenseness as his commissioned portraits.. http://www.franklinbowlesgallery.com/SF/Artists/ . Rembrandt/Pages/sf_rembhome.html . In the cases of The Musicians, The Mummers and The Drummers we are able to see how Rembrandt used the reflections to double the subject matter. There are nearly eighty other examples of this procedure that could be cited among Rembrandt's drawings. http://www.saverembrandt.org.uk/cms/content/view/1/32/

Inapropriate answers are given by users who just want to mess up the site and ruin WikiAnswer's reputation.

Since WikiAnswers is a wiki, where anyone can have imput, people think it is funny to mess up answers, when it is not.

Gifted (or burdened) with a strong sense of justice, Dickens always wrote with social and personal injustice in mind. Examine everything he wrote and a protest or expose of a social wrong (the class system, the judicial system, etc.) will be apparent. He primarily used London was his 'canvas' (even when the book begins somewhere else), because it provided such fertile ground for the illustration and denouncement of the ills of the world.

The subject matter is what the book is about . So if you have a book on, say, Winston Churchill, he is the subject matter.

WikiAnswers doesn't 'block' inappropriate questions, but rather stores them so no one can answer an inappropriate question that has already been asked. It is called a 'Catch-All', and it stores all of the inappropriate questions so when a user types in an inappropriate question that has already been asked and merged into that Catch-All, they will get an answer telling them that inappropriate questions are not allowed on WikiAnswers. In a way, WikiAnswers does 'block' inappropriate questions.

Goya's goal in his painting was to display all the evil in the world. He was the court painter for King Carlos IV of Spain, and he did not think much of the king of the court. His paintings condemned their decadent lives. He also was reputed to have had an affair with La Duquessa de Alba. He painted her in "La Maja Vestida" and "La Maja Desnuda". Going with the theme of pessimism, he also painted scenes from the war between France and Spain-- a war he opposed-- in "Los fusilamientos del 3 de mayo". When Goya began to lose his hearing (and later his mind), his subject matter became darker in his black period. He painted characters from mythology like Saturn and Colossus.

Naruto DVDs contain Japanese animated series 'Naruto'. They are often refereed to as 'anime' and are directed at a wide range of audiences. Anime Naruto is aimed at teenage and younger audiences, however this may be dependent on the series. The English series is known to be aimed at younger audiences, with much less dramatic action and 'more appropriate' language. Naruto can be associated with series such as Pokemon or Dragon Ball, which are both animes.

What is "inappropriate" depends entirely on who you are and what your ideas of propriety are. If you are a complete moron, you might think that the line "in fair Verona where we lay our scene" is inappropriate because it uses the word "lay". Yes, the prologue does refer twice to the fact that Romeo and Juliet die in the play. If you think that it is inappropriate to acknowledge that people die, then I think you are in serious denial about the truth about what it means to be human.

This answer depends very much on who you ask. Some people think artneeds to be contreversial, the more people find it inappropriatethe better.
