Edibility. In the end, we consume the creation, take it into our own body. Its edibility not only brings us closer to the work by eliminating the awkward distances between, for instance, the painter and viewer or poet and reader, but the ability to internalize the object (the meal) places us in a position to be seriously, viscerally, even gastro-intestinally affected...
Solid Alternatives. Most legal scholars do not seem to object to Nixon's desire to appoint a Southerner and a Republican to the high court or to add a strict constitutional constructionist.

...Objectification: In this scheme, people are sexual objects, but they are also subjects. This use of human bodies as objects is legitimate (not harmful) only when it is reciprocal. If one person is always object and the other subject, it stifles the human being in both of them. Objectification must also be open and frank...
