modern artist as public figure. No painter before him had had a mass audience in his own
lifetime. Picasso's audience--meaning people who had heard of him and seen his work, at
least in reproduction--was in the tens, possibly hundreds, of millions. He and his work
were the subjects of analysis, gossip, dislike, adoration and rumor. He was a superstitious,
sarcastic man, sometimes rotten to his children, often mean to his women. He had
contempt for women artists. His famous remark about women being "goddesses or
doormats" has rendered him odious to feminists, but women tended to walk into both
roles open-eyed and ...

With a large area of nightlife, DJs and clubbers, and with one of the most beautiful landscapes on earth, Ibiza is sure to continue long into the future. Ibiza is described as the island of parties. In the 60's, cult religious leader Baghwan Shree Rejneesh chose this island as a center for his quasi-religious events, and introduced a new form of religious worship.

Arthurian Legend
... each transformation Wart experiences different forms of power, each being a part of how he should rule as king.
The first transformation takes Wart and Merlin into the castle’s moat as a fish. They then meet the largest fish in the moat, which is an alligator who is the ruler. The alligator takes what he wants because of his size. In a speech about power, he tells Wart that “Might is right,” and might of the body is greater than might of the mind. Because of the way the alligator rules, his subjects obey him out of fear for their lives. Wart experiences this firsthand when the gator tells him to le ...

The Reign Of Terror
... new age pales to some of the events during this period. In fact, the storming
of the Bastille was merely a hole in the dike, and more would follow. The
National Guard, the Paris Commune, the September Massacre, are all words that
the French would prefer us not to hear. These events were a subtle dénouementto
an climax that was filled with both blood and pain. The Reign of Terror, or the
Great Terror, was a massive culmination to the horror of the French Revolution,
the gutters flowing with blood as the people of Paris watched with an
entertained eye. No matter what the French may claim, if one chooses to open ...

African American Women
... and have always wondered why African Americans would use it as if it meant nothing. After reading this essay, by an African American woman I have a greater insight into why these people would use what I thought to be such a demeaning, demoralizing word. I can now see the word can have many meanings. "… In my third grade class… I remarked that once again (the little boy) had received a much lower mark than I did… he spit out that word…"(232) here I saw the meaning of the word that I saw, the only meaning I knew. A derogatory remark used to demean an African American person. Then as I read into the story mo ...

Hitler’s anti-Jew campaign began soon afterward, with the "Nuremberg Laws", which defined the meaning of being Jewish based on ancestry. These laws also forced segregation between Jews and the rest of the public. It was only a dim indication of what the future held for European Jews.
Anti-Jewish aggression continued for years after the passing of the Nuremberg Laws. One of these was the "Aryanization" of Jewish property and business. Jews were progressively forced out of the economy of Germany, their assets turned over to the government and the Ger ...

2. The use of steam, and later of other kinds of power, in place of the muscles.
3. The adoption of the factory system.
The Industrial Revolution came gradually. However, when measured against the centuries people had worked entirely by hand, it happened in a short span of time. Until the inventions of the flying shuttle in 1733 and the spinning jenny in 1764, the making of yarn and the weaving of cloth had been much the same for thousands of years. By 1800 a host of new and faster processes were in use in both manufacture and transportation.
