.... in Opportunity Magazine and other publications(Jackson,1).� “One of Hughes’ finest essays appeared in the Nation in 1926, entitled “The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain�. It spoke of Black writers and poets, “who would surrender racial pride in the name of a false integration�, where a talented Black writer would prefer to be considered a poet. Hughes argued, “no great poet has ever been afraid of being himself’. He wrote in this essay, “We younger Negro artists now intend to express our individual dark-skinned selves without fear or shame. If white people are pleased we are glad. If they aren’t, it doesn’t .....

.... work explored an explosion of pictorial energy. "Colors must be thought out." According to Picasso, "Matisse has color and is searching for drawing." Matisse's travels were always the inspiration for his works. As Amy Freeman Lee believes, "the creative process begins in intuition, with a bringing into consciousness and awareness of experience gained in something other than through sensory perception." Matisse enjoyed painting not only the real world, but the spiritual world as well. Matisse wanted to share his findings and knowledge. He always stressed the significance of instinct and intuition on the construction of a work of art. M .....

.... him as savior of over 1200 Jews? Why was he declared a Righteous person in Jerusalem and invited to plant a carob tree in the Avenue of the Righteous? The answer is simple: To more than 1200 Jewish people held as prisoners in camps during World War II, Oskar Schindler and his factories are all that stood between them and death at the hands of the Nazis. Schindler's motives, even to this day, are not completely clear. As you learn about a man full of flaws just like the rest of us, I know that you too will appreciate the fact that an ordinary man can do extraordinary things. Oskar Schindler is a hero to over 6,000 Jews currently living .....

.... demanded total loyalty to the throne and discretion in public and private behavior. (Dumas, Afterword). Louis was born on September 5, 1638. It was also an event that fell just short of being miraculous, for the king and queen had been married for twenty-three years and they detested each other. After all these years of unfruitful marriage, everyone had become resigned to the idea that the reigning couple, Louis XIII and Anne of Austria, would remain childless. This meant that the King's brother, Gaston d'Orleans would eventually inherit the throne. The birth of the new king brought national rejoicing (though not Gaston's). France fi .....

.... town of Sagunto was completely within the rights of the Carthage and the treaty but Rome at the time was getting too big and becoming very imperialistic. All Rome could see was that they had to have all of the Mediterranean and the only thing that stood in their way was a single General and his men. The way in which the Romans were unconsciously straying from “mos maiorum� to manipulate the course of events was disturbing. Though these actions were not entirely the “evil� work of Rome. from his earliest memories could recall nothing but hatred for Rome. ’s Father had instilled a horrifically self-destructive desire within to see .....

.... into Chapman's Homer." Both poems appeared in the Examiner, a literary periodical edited by the essayist and poet Leigh Hunt, one of the champions of the romantic movement in English literature. Hunt introduced Keats to a circle of literary men, including the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley; the group's influence enabled Keats to see his first volume published, Poems by John Keats (1817). The principal poems in the volume were the sonnet on Chapman's Homer, the sonnet "To One Who Has Been Long in City Pent," "I Stood Tip-Toe upon a Little Hill," and "Sleep and Poetry," which defended the principles of romanticism as promulgated by Hunt .....

.... to others. After he graduated he took a job teaching mathematics at Erlangen University in 1805. He spent the next years looking for a better teaching position. He found what he was looking for in 1817 when a job was made available to him at Cologne Gymnasium. He now looked to research electrical current. In 1827 he published Die galvanishce Kette, mathematisch bearbeit (The Galvanic Circuit, Mathematically Treated). This was a mathematical description of conduction in circuits modeled after Fourier's study of heat conduction. This is also known as Ohm's Law. Ohm's Law, which is Georg's greatest accomplishment, started as an .....

.... Team. This achievement was huge and she was becoming better known around Ontario and Canada from it. This recognition, she said, caused her to feel stressed and made her feel that she had to win, and she was extremely disappointed when she didn't. Many people said that they saw a huge change in Joanne's attitude towards the sport at this time and that the stress and pressure caused her to mature and have to make big decisions on her own. She, at first, didn't know if she could handle the stress, and at one time wanted to give up. Joanne instead, chose to continue her swimming career and has made great progress over the years. As th .....

.... community. During the 40’s and 50’s his stance against U.S. polices and social conditions were not popular ones. Subsequently, Burton was considered by many in the art community to be a communist sympathizer. As a result, several of his most moving and intense pieces did not receive the exposure or notoriety that they deserved. For instance, “Lynch No More� is the wood carving of a Negro man with an executioner's noose around his neck; the noose has been severed about six inches up the rope. When the piece was finished in 1948 Burton wanted to show it in a traveling exhibition, but the exhibition director would not allow it to be .....

.... ancestry from the French, Dutch, Spanish, and Jewish sides, Williams had an interesting mix of culture from birth (Bloom 4338). As he grew older in his middle class household, his father provided him with a fertile background in the arts and literature, introducing him to Shakespeare, Dante, and the Bible (DISC 1). To further elevate his level of knowledge, Williams attended the University of Pennsylvania, where he was awarded a Doctorate in Medicine, and later visited the University of Leipzig, for post-graduate study (Bloom 4338). Williams fulfilled his parents' lofty standards by becoming a general practitioner with his degree from .....
