“Greek myth is so much a part of the fabric of our consciousness, of our unconscious really, that we scarcely notice” (Foster, 1). When thinking the word myth, our minds automatically think of the distant Greek and Roman myths fabricated on the shores of the Mediterranean thousands of years ago. We think of legends told as a kid; fables of strength, love, courage, adventure, and naturally almighty gods and goddesses. A myth “is a story which is not „true‟ and which involves (as a rule)…

The Renaissance era lasted from the early 1300s to the mid-1600s and was coined the period of rebirth or classical revival of the classical past. During this time, God became less of the focal point and humanism (man was at the measure of all things) took root. Italy was perhaps one of the most important regions of the time due to its beauty and grandeur. The top city-states during the Renaissance included Florence, Milan, and Venice. In an effort to understand how the Renaissance period…

Finn LeSieur Mrs. Stepp Period 7 May 8, 2018 An Allegory of Titian Titian was born in Cadore, Italy in the year 1490. He lived to the age of 86, dying in the year 1576 due to a sudden outbreak of the plague. Titian spent the first years of his life next to the Dolomite Mountains with three younger siblings. By the age of 12, he had already been sent to Venice so he could train under a mosaicist. This lasted little time. Once he left the mosaicist Titian began working with Giovanni Bellini.…

our empirical senses when discerning reality from illusion. Nolan achieves this via the fabrication of dreams and memories; a concept that is heavily reliant on visualisation. During the exposition and Ariadne’s “first lesson in shared dreaming”, Ariadne is oblivious to the supposed dream world in which she was residing in until Cobb enquires with the imperative “Think about it […] How did you get here?”. This exemplifies the external stimulus discussed earlier, that allows an individual to…

moment, even in the final moment. Indeed, an astonished Theseus –the redeemer Asterion had been waiting for and who in the story only speaks after killing that who had before possession of the word (it does not lack of metaphysic implications) – tells Ariadne in the very end of The House of Asterion: «The minotaur hardly put up a fight» (p.570). A dimension that has not been clarified in the two Borges´ poems to which reference was made before appears here in this story. As a consequence of…

Johann Sebastian Bach, as we know, is regarded as one of the greatest composers in Western music. He had a lot of influence on other composers in his contemporaries even through succeeding time spot. Today, his compositions are the most frequently performed ones among the keyboard repertoire. So in my paper, I’d like to figure out how much contribution J.S Bach made to the keyboard music and how many composers were influenced by him. I will put emphasis on his The Well- Tempered Clavier which is…

The Psychology is the study of the human mind and its functions, especially those affecting behavior. Psychodynamic is the theory descended from the work of Sigmund Freud; most famous figure known as the father of Psychology, emphasize the importance of unconscious mental forces; and Psychoanalysis is a subset of psychodynamic theory. This is created by Freud; that is focused on unconscious inspirations and conflict which is generally very long and intensive. This theory is a broad therapeutic…

In the late 1850s, it was not extremely popular to paint women without clothes due to the conservative culture of the Puritans. In John Vanderlyn’s Ariadne Asleep on the Island of Naxos (1809 to 1814), a woman is portrayed laying on the ground nude. It did not receive much success during the time of its creation. However, it did show the beauty that Vanderlyn and others who favored it saw in the body…

Both Paprika and Inception are the kind of films telling the relationship between reality and dreams. Also, Kon Satoshi and Christopher Nolan are both well-known directors with a large number of fans. However, Paprika was produced four years earlier than Inception, which, in my opinion, also has the content with deeper and more complex thought. Inception is mainly about the demons story of the character which was played by Leonardo DiCaprio. It is a really simple and clear film that can be…
