The technology of ammunition Prompt 1 According to Winner (1980), some artifacts are widely believed to require social structures in which they can operate; others are thought to work well in conjunction with specific systems of power and authority.

A significant feature of theatrical drama that appears pertinent to religious experiences is the metatheatre. However, since its inception, scholars have debated the incidence of the biblical worldview in the play. Scholars have given attention to the influence of the play on reality, sense of life, and the world. Even though the play consist of religious premises and Christian trappings, it does not present an overtly biblical worldview theatrical drama. The conventional biblical view is absent from the play because the author wants a set of funeral that suggests heaven, consisting of “sun and moon and stars” as well as the Blue Mountains. Wilder also stresses more pagan environment than a traditional cemetery. Even if the wedding in Act II occurs in a Protestant church, the story does not mention other Christian conventional symbols. The cemetery induces native societies that handle their dead by setting them out on top of mountain as opposed…
