... some form of a protagonist as well as an antagonist, but in many cases it is unclear who gets which label. The American Civil War is a perfect example. The South wanted the freedom to make decisions that benefited a largely agricultural society, and when that freedom was denied they withdrew from the Union. The Union, on the other hand, viewed the South as a group of radicals making an attempt to dissolve the unity of states that their ancestors had worked so hard to create. As a result they felt their freedom of unity and nationhood had been taken away. It is difficult to say who was in the right, but when all of th ...

... the U.S. military's competent use of the principals of war. The primary success of a mission is the ability to define an overall attainable objective for the mission. In the formulation of the mission to invade Panama, the U.S. military set out four main objectives of the mission. First, they wanted to "protect American lives" (Watson 69). This meant they wanted to protect the lives of the 35,000 U.S. citizens in Panama from attacks by Noriega's Panama Defense Force or PDF; they also wanted to protect the lives of Americans at home by attempting to eliminate drug trafficking. Second, they wanted to "protect A ...

... Missouri Compromise of 1820-21 and reopened the controversy over slavery in the western territories. In January of 1854, Senator Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois introduced a bill dividing the land into two parts: Kansas and Nebraska, and leaving the question of slavery to be decided by settlers. Even though this outraged antislavery people, after five months of debating, the bill was passed. This did not defuse the slavery issue, but split Kansas between the North and South. This helped push the United States closer to the Civil War (Grolier, Kansas-Nebraska Act). Peculiar Institution was an "euphemistic term tha ...




Processed Art

... My goal in this paper is not so much to present all of the best or worst of the art from these movements, but to provide concrete material for discussions regarding the nature and purpose of art. Arno Breker, Nazi, was, in a certain sense, both the best and the worst of the Nazi artists. His technique was excellent, and his choice of subjects, poses and theme were outstanding. On the other hand, he was much more directly and effectively a supporter of the Nazi cause. Had his sculpture been ugly, ambiguous in meaning, poorly executed or less directly associated with Nazi militarism, the negative effects on the ...

... the de Lome letter; which was a letter sent from a Spain man in America his friend in Cuba to reassure him that there would be no war. He said that McKinley was a coward. American's were outraged at this. But that was not it. When the U.S.S. Maine was blown up; killing more than 260 soldiers, Americans, if they hadn't before, they were now demanding war more than ever. They blamed the explosion on Spain and told McKinley to go to war. McKinley had decided to go to war even though Spain had given in to America's demands. He didn't want to look like a coward to the American people. He was also afraid th ...

... As new styles of linear and aerial perspective and pyramid structures came into use by Francesca and Alberti, paintings were able to carry better-recognized religious ideas because the paintings became more transparent and more vivid in detail. Lastly, artists in the high Renaissance such as Da Vinci, Michaelangelo, Titian, and Raphael developed paintings in the narrative style that demonstrated the “body in a more scientific and natural manner,” thus demonstrating the various aspects of every day life. Moreover, with the combinations of the two beneficiary notions, individualism and humanism, craftsmen wer ...

... and producing and direction. David’s first big screen success came to him in 1969 when his simple and tasteful film "Stereo" got shot down at the box office. David was somewhat discouraged by this and in 1970 would shock the world with his first film of the horror or shock film industry that broke all the limits. "Crimes of the Future" was a large success at the box office and at he 1970 Cannes Film Festival. Little did the public know, David Cronenberg was not finished there.

... and Leonard began to regress, he insisted that Dr. Sayer continue recording and observing him for scientific research. Leonard's first words were, "I'm awake." He said this with great emotion. He knew he'd been sleeping, but not for as long as it actually was. Before his total awakening, Dr. Sayer spent many hours tending to Leonard, observing that he was like a live animal, trying to escape, that couldn't break free. This showed his dedication. Dr. Sayer's scientific research into the L. Dopa drug made possible Leonards 'awakening.' He saw this drug as having potential and gave it a try. As the drug w ...

I will study the interplay between the elements of realism and fantasy via the use of the following texts: Angela Carter's' The Bloody Chamber focusing mainly on "The Bloody Chamber" and "The Lady of the House of Love".
