The poor were fighting for their rights, but due to the militaries immense power, they labeled the poor as communists, causing others to think the country was in danger of communist influences.
Suffering as Christ Did Some people may agree with this statement because Jesus suffered immense torture, death and cruelty. We know this because in Mark’s Gospel there is the story of Jesus’ crucifixion where he got mocked, beat and stripped him. Jesus suffered and was made to carry his cross people shouted abuse at him and laughed at him questioning his power. Just before Jesus died he shouted “My God, My God, why did you abandon me?” People today it could be said are not willing to suffer
The Important Message in Romero [1] Can film as a medium make any sense of History? Most of the time that seems not even to be the issue. So-called “historical” movies such as Pocahontas and Glory have been attacked for straying from the recorded facts of the events they portray in an attempt to tell a more attractive story. This practice has its roots in the movie-making process. Hollywood exists to make money, do not be fooled. Movies cost millions of dollars to film, print, release

Iconography and Iconology of an Advertisement Looking at the art of the past, we see many images depicting nude women. From Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus to Ingres’s Grande Odelisque, many artists like the idea of painting a woman in the nude in an interesting pose. Even modern images in contemporary magazines depict nude images. Yves Saint Laurent’s advertisement of their fragrance Opium depicts a nude woman covering her breast. Her pose is a symbol of the iconography, while beauty serves
Napoleon's Defeat The Campaign of 1812 should have been a another crusade for Napoleon, but he now faced 2 new policies that he had never faced before, the severe Russian winter and the notorious scorched-earth policy. On June 23, 1812 Napoleon's Grande Armee, over 500,000 men strong, poured over the Russian border. An equal amount of Russian forces awaited them. The result of the campaign was a surprise. Two authors, General carl von Clausewitz and Brett James, show similarities in reasons why Napoleon

His teachers at Petite École encouraged him to "try for the Grande École des Beaux-Arts". He applied, but was not accepted. Not giving up hope, Rodin applied two more times, but was rejected.

Such is the technique of pointillism, created by nineteenth century artist Georges Seurat, where points of pure color are grouped together to give off the appearance of a solid figure. My absolute favorite of his works is the popular "A Sunday on La Grande Jatte", a large mural depicting a social gathering in a park setting. The artist's dedication to use this technique is truly inspiring and somewhat unbelievable. Nevertheless, this piece of art has inspired me to attain perseverance and work to achieve

The Luncheon of the Boating Party by Pierre-Auguste Renoir is a piece full of rich colors that reflect both the time period and the artist’s impressionist style. This composition not only conveys a leisurely gathering of people, but also expresses the changing French social structure of the time due to the industrial revolution. To portray these themes Renoir uses, shape, space, color and texture. Shape is seen in the modeled figures and bottles, and space is created by overlapping of the bodies

propuestas del rol que los sueños pueden tomar en una obra literaria. En el caso de Borges, de una manera sutil y que podría pasar desapercibida, centra su historia en cómo la interpretación de los sueños pueden ser la clave para descubrir el más grande secreto que un ser humano pueda imaginar, a la vez que nos muestra como la escritura (representada por los sueños) es capaz de llevarnos a este proceso de descubrimiento tan personal e intrínsico. Cortázar, por su parte, utiliza los sueños como una
