People from many places have very similar and different religions and worship. All throughout history people have had different religions and ways of worshiping. Religious buildings and Temples were made for people to have a safe place and do their religious acts among other believers. Medieval Monasteries were built for the same purposes. They were built for the serious believers who would basically give up their old life for a new life filled with worship and pray. Monasteries became very…

All the choices you make in life affect your future. Other people might think that your future is affected by fate. But I argue that the human experience is governed by choice. I know this because I have read 3 pieces of text that prove it. The three pieces of text are The Pearl, Hotrodders, and Lullaby for 17. In the pearl Kino choose to keep the pearl and that's why his family was in danger. He could’ve chosen to just leave it there or not look for it at all. In Hotrodders they chose to play…

The Great Mosque of Cordoba brought the influence of Islamic and Byzantine architecture to Spain, and led to the creation of the mudejar-style of architecture that is now a trademark of the Spanish Empire. As the cultural capital under the Muslim Umayyad dynasty, Cordoba grew as a city rich in art and architecture, eventually becoming a cultural mecca for Islam. As Glaire Anderson, historian of Islamic art and architecture, states, “the Great Mosque was the centerpiece of Cordoba, one of the…

The Sistine Chapel is the most famous chapel, which is located in the Vatican. The Sistine Chapel is a huge rectangular hall, which has an oval-shaped vaulted sailing, and is divided into two parts with an incredibly beautiful marble wall. Architects invested considerable work in the construction of the building, but the most important value and wealth of the Sistine Chapel is the present of frescoes by Michelangelo and the wall paintings of other masters, which can be called the masterpiece of…

there was a temple that was dedicated to a Roman god Janus where the Mosque stands today. After being invaded by Visigoths in 572, the temple was converted to a church. The church was constructed on the “San Vicente” Basilic. The construction and architecture of the Mosque of Cordoba is the longest standing example of Islamic artwork and Cordoba’s Christian identity combination. This can be seen through the Hypostyle Hall, the dome, and the mihrab. When the basilic became property of Abd…

Introduction One of my favourite churches – one that I visit almost every time I go to Rome - is Santa Maria sopra Minerva. This church of the Dominican Order of the Roman Catholic Church is located very close to the Pantheon (about 150 metres). It is considered to be the only Gothic church within the walls of ancient Rome (Sokolov, n.d.). I will briefly describe the history of this church before describing relationship between its appearance and layout and its religious uses; and highlighting…

Gothic art evolved from Romanesque art and lasted from the mid 12th century and lasted to as late as the 16th century in some areas. Architecture was the most important and original art form during the gothic period. The principal structures of these buildings came from the medieval masons and their work to innovate and create new structural support to better hold these historical buildings. The elements they created allowed for taller, more massive, and complicated ground plans in building than…

Even their names help to convey this, Horrocks sounds very simple and English whereas Raut sounds European and slightly more upper class. The story is set in three key places, in a garden, a railway crossing, and an iron works, which all have their individual gothic elements. The garden is portrayed as a dark, still place, with an atmospheric sky looming overhead, the railway crossing is where Raut experiences a near death incident, but oddly enough Horrocks saves him, then the final…
