These themes appear uniquely in a range of texts including Shamus Heaney's poems Digging, Punishment and Funeral Rites, Sofia Coppola's film Lost in translation, Eat Pray love written by Elizabeth Gilbert and in the 2011 television series Off The Map directed by Jenna Bans. The values ​​explored in these texts are fundamentally linked to the religious, philosophical, scientific and cultural paradigms of the 21st and 21st centuries and are a reflection of the society and literature of this period. These texts shaped new ideologies and different ways of thinking in society and detailed the relationships between the local and the global as having great significance on relationships with community and individual life.
