Saint Augustine and Classical Education In Saint
Augustine's deeply personal work, Confessions, he
shares the story of his life up to his eventual

Philosophy of Aesthetic 1) Aristotle's main
concern in the Poetics is to redeem the arts from
Plato's criticism of their value in human society.

questioned if to look at the issue from some other
prospective. This work by Aristotle is considered
to be the first example of criticism in literary
tradition. Firstly Aristotle defines tragedy in
his masterpiece and gives some basic insight into
it. Accor...

Sophomore year in high school I was enchanted by
this idea. Certainly, this noble truth did not
come to me out of blue at some particular moment.
As we grow up we tend to accumulate experience,
knowledge, and attitudes and at some point all of
this starts transforming into some defined shape
in our mind that calls our body for a certain
action. That was perhaps exactly what had happened
to me. I gradually st...

Brazilian Folk Dance Brazilian Folk Dance That Started Capoeira

Every country has one or more folk dances. Each
one is performed differently than the other,
although they might have originated from similar
backgrounds. One dance that particularly captures
my attention is the Capoeira. The Capoeira is a
Brazilian folk dance that started out as a fierce
form of self-defense and has now become a friendly
dance between a circle of people. To better
understand and familiarize with the Capoeira we
must learn how and where it originated, the ways
it has evolved, an...

Eighteenth And Nineteenth Centuries Ch Ing

From the earliest awakenings of Chinese
civilization, the Chinese have sought out what
they believe to be spiritual perfection. This
numinous sense of flawlessness existed within the

peace. In their art, they stressed the dignified

Nineteenth Century Time Periods

Boredom breeds blood and poison. In todays
society, it fails to surprise us that children
continue to cling to the messages within music,
television, and magazines. Such media portrayals
tend to then set a model for how we develop our
behavioral patterns. However, once a trend grows
old or out of style, a strong sense of apathy
results, if only for even a split second. In the
long run, when such children feel out of place and
their emotions run them rather than their minds,
chaos results. We hav...
