One Hundred And Fifty Subject Matter
1,023 wordsTheodore Gericault's greatest legacy as an artist is undoubtedly his Raft of the Medusa, completed in 1819. The painting is the comprehensive result of experiments with a variety of forms and styles; it marks the apogee of Gericault's career. Beautiful and horrible, incidental and ubiquitous, monumental without a specific hero, The Raft of the Medusa was to the Salon of 1819 a complete paradox. The painting's first critics were divided in their assessments by their political and artistic ideolog...

So are there any foundations based on whether one should pity another? The Oxford Dictionary defines pity as the sorrow for another's suffering or misfortune.

King Hussein Holy Land
1,171 wordsFor decades, the situation in Palestine has been promoted as an "Arab" issue, or a "Palestinian" issue, and Muslims have, by and large, gone along with this charade.

Chain Of Events One Month
1,253 wordsUpon my first reading of Jorge Luis Borges Death and the Compass I found myself reacting to the chain of events not unlike the bland but efficient Inspector Treviranus. The Hotel du Nord with its hateful whiteness, numbered divisibility, and general appearance of a bordello seemed a natural place for a crime of greed and betrayal to have gone sour on a luckless criminal. The lure of priceless sapphires and mistaken destination was more than enough to recreate the crime that had taken place. Insp...

Death, as we know it, is inevitable. Mary Shelley incorporates death into her piece in a way that I havent seen before. It takes a role in nearly every other aspect of the novel.
