    Through Brook’ Vermeer’s Hat: the Seventeenth Century and the Dawn of the Global World, Brook claims that the “dawn of globalization” took place during the 17th century, and was the beginning of the start of the modern world due to the growing alliances, trade and production of goods. Brook backs up his claim by using the several pieces of art included in his book, that were created during the seventeenth century. He focuses on specific parts of each work, and uses it as a door to the past and uses them as an example to explain how the existence of the item in the painting shows that the dawn of globalization happened in the seventeenth century, and it happened because of goods and trade at its core. Instead of “looking at the surface” (6) Brook looks, and inspires readers to look, at the objects that make up the piece of art.…

    Molly Bang Paper When thinking of this assignment, I immediately knew which book I was going to choose.

As a child, I was in love with Mercer Mayer’s “Little Critter” books (and still am today). I decided not to go searching for an easy or popular book, rather I wanted to take one I know and love and see if/how Molly Bang’s principles were applied.…

    Anne Hutchinson was raised on the ideas of the typical Puritan theology. This theology believed that God originally established a covenant with Adam specifying that firm obedience of God’s law would result in salvation. After the fall, humanity sank into sin until God formed a second covenant with Abraham. Because post-Lapserian man could not abide by a covenant of works, God established a covenant of grace whereby certain individuals were preordained as the spiritually elect, but were concealed as such from the secular world. The inability to determine one’s spiritual status empirically; the “invisibility” of the elect; largely cultivated the self-deprecating, anxiety-ridden nature of Puritan discourse in New England.…

Historically, Australian picturebooks were not a readily available or utilised resource. Australian colonial children were also only exposed to British children’s books, which sheltered them from experiencing literature about their own history, nature and landscape.…
