... and Kleiner, 995). The following paintings, Poppy Field in a Hollow near Giverny (Poppy Field) by Monet and The Ravine by Van Gogh will allow us to further investigate the two artists’ stylistic orientation. Both paintings are dealing with similar subjects and have comparable compositions. As impressionists, Monet and Van Gogh brought great attention to the surface of the landscape as well as to the surface of the canvas. The viewer is completely aware that the images of are illusions. Both paintings are about impression and color sensation. However, the approaches behind these paintings are quite distin ...

... in your play the more "professional" it became. If you think to movies and plays today, a story told with star actors seems to carry on a more professional status than those told without stars. A feature with Robert DiNero and Ray Liotta is going to sound more professional than a movie done with want-to-be actors. The rule also gave way for more effective portrayal of a character. It did this in two ways. First, it gave a way to make the character deeper by giving him contrast to the other characters. Second, it gave an outlet where the characters could form unions with each other. They could team up two a ...

... king is also a thief; instead of robbing purses from travellers, he stole an entire empire from Richard II, whom he also had murdered. In their ways of dealing with people, especially under uncomfortable circumstances, the two also behave in like ways. It is well known that Falstaff often works his way out of unpleasant situations using only his wit. The King is continuously modifying his behavior to suit the occasion, such as when he is dealing with Hotspur and the opposing Vassals and when he deals with Hal at the royal court. Both Falstaff and the King live,to a great extent, by the sharpness of their minds: Fal ...

... play seems to imply that Macbeth is indeed responsible for his own actions which are provoked by an unwillingness to listen to his own conscience, the witches, and his ambition. First, Macbeth ignores the voice of his own psyche. He knows what he is doing is wrong even before he murders Duncan, but he allows Lady Macbeth and greed to cloud his judgement. In referring to the idea of the murder of Duncan, Macbeth first states,"We will proceed no further in this business"(I.vii.32). Yet, after speaking with Lady Macbeth he recants and proclaims,"I am settled, and bend up/Each corporal agent to this terrible feat" ...

... himself whether it is more noble, in the mind, to passively accept and suffer through all the pains of life fate throws at him, or to actively destroy, in death, these numerous troubles, and ultimately end his pain. Hamlet is questioning whether it is better to live in a world where he cannot see any goodness or take his own life. Hamlet has a very intense, philosophical personality. For this reason, he cannot take his life because he does not know what happens after one dies. He is not positive of an afterlife, therefore he doesn't have the courage to end his life. "Now might I do it prat," (Beaty, 1363) is a ...

... so that he could talk to Mr. Wright. When he knocked on the door, he wasn’t sure if he had heard a voice inviting him in or not. He went ahead and opened the door to see Mrs. Wright sitting in her rocking chair. Mr. Hale asked her if he could see Mr. Wright. She replied that he was lying upstairs, dead, with a rope around his neck. Mr. Hale didn’t know how to react to her statement, so he just asked her who had killed him. Mrs. Wright said she didn’t know. Thinking that he may need help, Mr. Hale called in Harry from outside and they both went upstairs. After seeing Mr. Wight dead, Harry went down ...

... a ten-year-old boy who was killed. The boy was riding his bike home from his friend’s house around 11 o’clock at night because the boy had gotten into a fight with his friend. Ray (the guy who was driving the car) had become distracted and did not see the boy and hit him. After a little convincing they all agreed to a pact not to tell anyone and threw the boy’s body over the cliff and into the water below. No one saw them do this. In the movie, it was a man named David Egan who was killed. Another man killed David and his body was thrown over the edge of the cliff. It just so happened that the four teenagers ...

... At the same time that his garments are lessening in value, so is his level of power and status. Lear finds the bottom of the abyss he enters when he, a fool, a beggar, and a madman have taken shelter in a hut from a storm. For Lear to be in the company such as this, his status is near nothing. In order to show this degeneration from high to low, Lear strips off all his clothing, showing he is now at the very bottom of the social order. To have some clothes is to be someone, to have none is to be nobody. Edgar, legitimate son to the Earl of Gloucester, is well dressed, not as much as Lear, but still above c ...

... feeling of evil. The witches appearance, "secret, black, and midnight hags" also indicates their evil nature. The witches dark meeting place and dark appearance all emphasize their destructive nature. Macbeth in Act 4: consulted with the witches, murdered Macduff's family, and continued to create chaos in Scotland. Macbeth in Act 4 is described as an agent of disorder, "untitled tyrant bloody-sceptered". The language in Act 1 that described Macbeth has changed from "noble" and "kind" to the diction of Act 4 witch describes Macbeth as "black Macbeth" and a "tyrant". The Castle that Macbeth lives in, Dunsanine ...

... for these young artists. This must not be allowed. Without federal funding for the arts, otherwise known as (NEA), art programs, education, and institutions would soon diminish in quality. Some things would possibly die out completely. Unfortunately, most of those opposed to the NEA have been supplied with misinformation that alters their perception of the issue. However, if given the facts about how the NEA can benefit not only the artisans, but also the whole nation, those opposers might change their mind in support of the arts program. One of the biggest arguments against federal funding for the arts is ...
