The Other Side of AIDS and Salesman, are which type of genre?
The Other Side of AIDS The Other Side of AIDS is a 2004 documentary film by Robin Scovill. Through interviews with prominent AIDS denialists and HIV-positive people who have refused anti-HIV medication, the film makes the claim that HIV is not the cause of AIDS and that HIV treatments are harmful, conclusions which are rejected by medical and scientific consensus. The film was reviewed in "Variety" and "The Hollywood Reporter" in 2004, and received additional attention in 2005, when Scovill's three-year-old daughter died of untreated AIDS.
Mashal (allegory) A Mashal (Hebrew: משל) is a short parable with a moral lesson or religious allegory, called a "nimshal". "Mashal" is used also to designate other forms in rhetoric, such as the fable and apothegm. Talmudist Daniel Boyarin has recently defined משל as a process of "exemplification," seeing it as the "sine qua non" of Talmudic hermeneutics (Boyarin 2003: 93). He quotes "Song of Songs Rabba": "until Solomon invented the משל, no one could understand Torah at all." The phenomenon has been compared to the more recent phenomenon of sampling in modern popular music, especially hip-hop (Levy 2010).
