Hi, need to submit a 4000 words paper on the topic Law, Literature and Media. These truth theories are on display in much of our legal cinema and literature, as these works accurately portray the biases that make absolute truth impossible to discern. Among these are the films Rashomon, a classic Japanese film about the relative nature of truth and Twelve Angry Men, a drama about a jury and about how truth is viewed through each of their eyes.

One of the theories of truth is known as relativistic truth. This basically states that reality is constructed relative to a group's language, or “group, social class, culture theory, paradigm or world view.” I And, since reality is different for everybody, it cannot be objectively evaluated. According to this theory, there are not just different perspectives, but that these different perspectives “cannot be evaluated across different groupings.” ii In this way, stories cannot produce Truth per se, but rather a truth that is told through each individual's eyes. iii Stories can only produce subjective truth, as opposed to objective Truth by the fact that each individual brings an inherent bias, either consciously or unconsciously, to their own version of the truth. In this way, contextual cues and ideologies can influence the ways that people narrate their lives and the events around them. For instance, a racist ideology will inform how a white individual will narrate discourse between himself and a black individual.iv Ideology refers to beliefs that are shared by a group, as opposed to one individual, although each individual shares the common ideology.v Meanings, social realities, knowledge, and emotion are seen to arise from social processes and interactions within particular socially structured contexts.vi Thus, the “world changes according to different paradigms.” vii A person's reality is individual, and, even though the reality might be in conflict with everybody&nbsp.else's reality, their reality is real to them and represents their world.
