Stigma, discrimination, and HIV/Aids knowledge among physicians in Barbados
Physician training in Barbados should focus on all aspects of HIV/AIDS care, including clinical and emotional factors. Attendance at such training should be mandatory for public sector physicians, and medical school curricula need to be examined to ensure their HIV/AIDS content is current and comprehensive

Dusting Antigone
Dusting Antigone Carol Jacobs For millennia, now, we have stood sentinel: hoping to see her—to catch her in the act, to say plainly and clearly what Antigone is about. Yet no vigilance could be adequate to the task. History offers a long succession of separate, disconnected experiences of Antigone—impossible to gather together into a single completed shape.

The end of the world is at hand, he intoned: must make our last confessions, receive absolution, and prepare for the hereafter. Protes…

The Critical Performance of Lessing's Laokoon
The merest glance at a reproduction of the famous statue of Laocoon tells us that it is a question of three figures in a rather critical situation. Laocoon, whose words of warning about the Trojan horse meet with disdain, is punished, Virgil writes, along with his two sons for having . . . profaned the sacred image.' The three figures are bound together by a common adversary: it entangles their limbs, trips them up, while at the same time directi…

The Style of Kleist
Already, no doubt, there has been a misunderstanding. Perhaps it could not be otherwise. For to construe Kleist's style in the conventional sense of the word (and in the conventional sense of Kleist criticism), as a mode of expressing thought in language [Webster's Seventh New Collegiate Dictionary] or as that which impressed the stamp of his being [Karl Ludwig Schneider, von Kleist.
