texts: In ancient Greek times, Socrates tried to determine which behaviors were a disorder and which ones were simply differences. He said that those ideas were seen in the Renaissance, the Romantic era, and the antipsychiatry movement. He claims that the modern version of the neurodiversity movement was started by studying people with special needs.The loudest voices in the camp are disruptive. They see the world in black and white, and either you are with them or against them, and it might end up hurting research, and hurting the delivery of services to those people who most need them. In response to neurodiversity's claim that people on the spectrum don't need medical treatment, <mask> points out that parents who support therapy for their children say that it will reduce their suffering and give them the best chance to succeed in adulthood. According to <mask>, the neurodiversity movement neglected the roles of Bernard Rimland and Leo Kanner in advocating for accommodations because they also wanted medical treatments. Steve Silberman's book, Neurotribes, was unfairly weighted against Leo Kanner according to <mask>. One of the first autism researchers, Hans Asperger, should be forgiven for his involvement in the Nazi regime, according to a piece written by <mask>.

She was attracted to Peeling because she thought she would find a deeper sense of community amongst people with the same background as herself. She began writing about the small cruelties she faced on the streets of New York City after working with Peeling for three years. The pieces she workshopped to at Peeling became more performative and began to include more people until she realized she was creating theatre. She began writing characters with their own narrative and began attempting full length plays because she was tired of her own voice. She went back to school because she didn't have the tools to create what she wanted. The New School for Drama in New York City is where she received her Masters of Fine Arts.Following graduate school, <mask> became a teaching artist. She traveled by subway to different New York City public schools to teach about theatre and theatre making. After writing plays, she stopped performing in them. The lack of representation of Asian women in theatre, and her feelings that there were more talented Asian American actors than herself who deserved the roles, is what <mask> claims. Her full length plays are focused on broad questions. Some of the questions are "Why are parents so hard on their kids?" Why do people lie?Why are we so mean to each other? The question needs to make her angry so that she can stick with it for as long as it takes to complete the play.

title: Giovanni Boccaccio

texts: <mask> was an Italian writer, poet, and correspondent of Petrarch. One of the most important figures in the European literary panorama of the 14th century was the Certaldese, who was born in Certaldo and became well known as a writer. He is considered to be the greatest European prose writer of his time, a versatile writer who amalgamated different literary trends and genres, making them converge in original works, thanks to a creative activity exercised under the banner of experimentalism. His most notable works are The Decameron, a collection of short stories which in the following centuries was a determining element for the Italian literary tradition, especially after Pietro Bembo elevated the Boccaccia style to a model of Italian prose in the sixteenth century. His realistic dialogue, which differed from that of his peers, is one of the reasons why he is known for his imaginative literature. The influence of Boccaccio's works was not limited to the Italian cultural scene but extended to the rest of Europe, which in turn had an influence on other authors. Boccaccio is a part of the "Three Crowns" of Italian literature.He is remembered for helping to lay the foundations of the city of Florence, in conjunction with the activity of his friend and teacher Petrarch. <mask> devoted himself to copying codices of the Divine Comedy and was a promoter of Dante's work and figure. <mask> was the subject of critical-philological studies by Giuseppe Billanovich andVittore Branca, and his Decameron was the subject of a film by Pier Paolo Pasolini. <mask>'s birth is uncertain.

In 1326, his father was appointed head of a bank and moved with his family to Naples. <mask> disliked banking and was an employee at the bank. He persuaded his father to allow him to study canon law at the University of Naples. He was interested in scientific and literary studies.The king of Naples was introduced to him by his father in the 1330s. He fell in love with a married daughter of the king, who was portrayed as "Fiammetta" in many of <mask>'s prose romances. <mask> was the administrator and possibly the lover of Catherine of Valois-Courtenay, widow of Philip I of Taranto. Acciaioli became a counselor to QueenJoanna I of Naples. <mask>'s studies allowed him to study widely and make good contacts with fellow scholars, even though he enjoyed law more than banking. His early influences included Paolo da Perugia, a curator and author of a collection of myths called the Collectiones. Boccaccino wanted his son to enter the profession of merchant according to the family tradition.Boccaccino took his son with him to Naples, the city where he played the role of business broker for the Bardi family, after making him do an internship in Florence. <mask> considered his true vocation to be poetry. The sources for The Knight's Tale and Troilus and Teseida are among the works produced in this period. The introduction of the Sicilian octave is thought to have influenced Petrarch. <mask> missed the visit of Petrarch to Naples in 1341 because he returned to Florence in early 1341, avoiding the plague of 1340 in that city. He left Naples because of the tensions between Florence and the Angevin king. His father went bankrupt when he returned to Florence.His mother died as she was unknown. <mask> continued to work even though he was dissatisfied with his return to Florence. The piece "Ninfale

The government of popolo minuto was formed in Florence after Walter of Brienne was overthrown. The influence of the nobility and wealthier merchant classes was diminished.Three-quarters of the city's population was killed by the Black Death in 1348. It is not certain if <mask> was present in Florence during the plague, despite his claims. His stepmother died during the epidemic and his father was the minister of supply in the city. Boccaccio became the head of the family after his father died. The Decameron was started by Boccaccio around 1349. It is possible that the structures of many of the tales date from earlier in his career, but the choice of a hundred tales and the frame-story lieta brigata of three men and seven women dates from this time. The work was done by 1352.It was <mask>'s last work in literature and one of his last works in Tuscany. <mask> wrote a new version of The Decameron. The manuscript is still in the present day. <mask> became involved with Italian humanism and the Florentine government in the 13th century. His first official mission was to Romagna. He went to that city-state again and again. He pushed for the study of Greek and encouraged his tentative translations of works by Homer and others.Minor orders were also taken in these years. He was given the responsibility to greet Petrarch as he entered Florence and also to have him stay at Boccaccio's home. <mask> called Petrarch his teacher and magister after the meeting between the two. Boccaccio was encouraged to study classical Greek and Latin literature by Petrarch. Boccaccio invited Petrarch to take a chair at the university in Florence after they met again in Padua in 1351. The discussions between the two helped in the creation of

It was a defense for the studies of ancient literature.<mask> believed that much could be learned from antiquity. He challenged the arguments of clerical intellectuals who wanted to limit access to classical sources to prevent moral harm to Christian readers. His defense of the importance of ancient literature was an essential requirement for the development of the Renaissance. <mask>'s poetic ideas were formalized in the discussions. The conversion of <mask> by Petrarch to a more ascetic style is thought to have taken place in the 14th century. He followed in the footsteps of Petrarch and Dante in their unsuccessful pursuit of an archaic and deeply allusive form of Latin poetry. <mask> probably took some kind of religious mantle following his meetings with Pope Innocent VI and Petrarch.He repudiated his earlier works in 1362, including The Decameron. <mask> began work on a book about 106 famous women in 1341. <mask>'s friends and acquaintances were executed or exiled following the failed coup of 1361. <mask> left Florence to live in Certaldo, although not directly linked to the conspiracy, as he became less involved in government affairs. He traveled to Naples and Padua and Venice in order to meet up with Petrarch, but he didn't go to Florence again until 1365. He went back to Certaldo. He met Petrarch again in Padua in 1368.<mask> wrote a poem after hearing of the death of Petrarch. <mask> was sent to Urban by the papacy after it returned to Rome from Avignon.

It was due to disappointment in love. <mask> came to write in a bitter Corbaccio style after some disappointment, having previously written mostly in praise of women and love. Pietro Petrone, a Carthusian monk, was on his death bed in 1362 and sent another Carthusian to urge him to give up his studies. <mask> was dissuaded from burning his own works by Petrarch. <mask>'s library was offered to be part of Petrarch's library.

"People are always taking advantage of you; everybody that's interested in you has got an angle," she said in 1974. She began her solo career touring the North American concert circuit several years before <mask> became what author Gerri Hirshey called the first "arena-class rock diva" with " hugely anticipated tours".Being on the road took its toll. There were few "girl singers" on the rock circuit at the time, and they were demoted to "groupie level when in a crowd of a bunch of rock and roll guys", a status <mask> avoided. Relating to men on a professional level as fellow musicians led to competition, insecurity, bad romances, and a series of boyfriend-managers. She admired singers like Maria Muldaur for not sacrificing their femininity, but she felt enormous self-imposed pressure to compete with the boys at every level. She noted in a 1969 interview that it was difficult being a single "chick singer" with an all-male backup band. She said that it was difficult to get a band of backing musicians because of their egos. One of her first backing bands was the pioneer country-rock band Swampwater, which combined Cajun and swamp-rock elements in their music.The Flying Burrito Brothers, as well as Stan and Eric White, brother of Clarence White of the
