Henri Cartier-Bresson was born on August 22nd, 1908 in Chanteloup, France. Cartier-Bresson had five siblings, Cartier-Bresson being the oldest. His family were privileged growing up due to his father was a textile manufacturer. His whole life he was interested in the arts and was inspired by his uncle who was a painter (Oden). Many members of his family were also interested in art. He went to school in Paris where he developed an interest in literature and art. In 1927 Cartier-Bresson studied painting under Andre Lhote for about two years. During this time many painters were experimenting with their work to further the theory of art (Oden). In 1928 Cartier-Bresson began attending Cambridge University in England where he also studied literature and art, specifically painting. During his time at Cambridge University Cartier-Bresson was introduced to the work of Eugene Atget, and Man Ray who were famous twentieth century photographers (Scharf). At this time Cartier-Bresson decided he wanted to make a career out of photography. He then began to travel around the world such as Africa, Eastern Europe, and Mexico (Oden). There he would take pictures of his experiences. Cartier-Bresson sent many of his photos to various magazines for them to publish them. Cartier-Bresson bought his first camera in 1932 which was a Leica hand-held camera. He really enjoyed taking candid photos. In 1933 he has his first exhibition at the Julien Levy Gallery located in New York. Afterwards his photos…

Constructivism and Social Constructivism in the Classroom (From: http://marjorieumg.weebly.com/learning-theories.html) For this work, I would like to focus on “Constructivism and Social Constructivism in the classroom” in the scope of this course. In the following sections, I will explain the meaning and the basics of constructivism theory, the origin of it and the starting point of the theory. In addition, importance of constructivism theory will be discussed. Furthermore, the supporters…

Anne Boleyn was accused of many things such as high treason, witchcraft, adultery, and incest. Suspicion arose against King Henry and Jane Seymour, his mistress at the time, both of whom were banqueting on the Thames at the time of Boleyn 's arrest. Pamphlets circulated throughout all of London that mocked the trials against Boleyn and the men and supported the Queen. On May 17,1536 Anne Boleyn 's brother, George Boleyn and the other men who were accused were executed. The keepers of the Tower…

Fitzroy died at the age of 16, although he had always been too weak and sickly to be a great king, anyway. Jane Seymour died in childbirth, but her son Edward lived. Then, Henry married Anne of Cleaves but divorced her quickly because of how ugly she was. Next, Henry married 19 year old Catherine Howard, but beheaded her because he thought she was adulterous. Finally, Henry married Catherine Parr and lived with her until he died. Mary was crowned Queen of England in 1553. She was passionate…

Hanson, Marilee. "King Henry VIII’s Love Letters to Anne Boleyn" Although his love for her was made clear with these letters, her lack of producing a male heir would become her downfall as well. Anne, like Catherine before her would suffer from miscarriages and only produce a female heir as well. Elizabeth was born on September 7th, 1533 and would be Henry and Anne’s only child to survive infancy. Once again Henry would take other women to his bed, and unlike Catherine, Anne refused to look the…

started to become at risk after noticing that her husband, Henry VIII had started to become interested in one of her ladies in waiting, Jane Seymour. After realizing that Boleyn could not produce a male heir, the court started to plot her downfall since Henry’s attention was on Jane Seymour and not his own wife. On May 2nd, Boleyn was arrested on accusations of adultery and the incentive to murder her husband, Henry VIII. The queen was soon put on trial and denied all accusations which led to…

Previously a lady in waiting to Anne, Jane Seymour captured the attention of the king. An interesting fact about Jane Seymour that separates her from Henry’s previous wives is pointed out by Eakins, “Jane never had a coronation” (Eakins) . Jane Seymour was never crowned as Queen of England. Furthermore, Jane was the only wife who fulfilled her duty by providing the king with a son and male heir; the one desire that drove him to divorce Catherine and break away from the Catholic Church.…

of bananas. They're very ordinary-looking fish when they swim in. But once they get in they behave like pigs...after they eat so many bananas they can't get out of the banana hole..they die.”(pg.14). It is a very strange way to explain an imaginary fish that you just made up to a young child, it’s a rather sad and grim concept. Unless you look at the whole thing as a way for Seymour to express his complex thoughts about society to a child. Recall earlier when instead of simply telling Sybil that…

enjoyed using the idea to turn on her. Perhaps she was falsely accused, perhaps Anne and the five men accused alongside her were maliciously attacked and convicted of crimes they did not commit and were then put to death in order to keep the throne happy. Perhaps they were in fact guilty of the crimes they were convicted of. The truth is yet to be known, it appears it will never be known, Anne never even left a hint to whether there was truth to her accusations, in her execution speech. Anne’s…

able to give us life lessons while adding some humor so it won’t be too serious the whole time you 're watching it. They don’t sugar coat what 's really happening in the world to make it seem like one big fairy tale. Although some of the situations are creatively made up their are a lot of events in the show that are currently happening in some households. The television show, “Being Mary Jane”, is a great drama series that connects with its audience while having great dialogue and giving life…
