Mann–Whitney U

One of De Goya’s most famous pieces is his Charles IV of Spain and his family, which was created while under the appointment of King Charles IV himself. This painting creates an interesting light on De Goya’s view of the royal family, while using many techniques in order to perfect the life-size image, also puts on display and mocks the family’s power. The interesting dynamics and hierarchy of the family displayed in this painting gives the strongest feel of what was going on within the inner…

The New Museum is located in the Lower East Side on Bowery and opened its doors in 2007 after expanding and relocating from its previous home in SoHo.

The pilot of the U-2 aircraft, Francis Gary Powers, did not follow procedure after he was shot down in Soviet airspace. Powers was supposed to commit suicide, if he was not killed in the initial crash, which he did not do. He was tried for espionage and sentenced to 10 years…

An Analysis of Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis and the Cause of Gregor’s Death Family is often viewed as important, and at times some will say—regardless of its actual meaning— “blood is thicker than water” to state their belief of putting family first; this belief can also lead to someone to do whatever they must when their family needs them. In Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis, Gregor’s decision to pay his father’s debt by taking charge of his family’s finances is what ultimately leads to his…

When one feels powerless, one may feel the need to create a role, which allows control. In three of different texts, Faulkner creates two characters who blame their misfortune on others. In “The Sound and the Fury” and “That Evening Sun,” Jason Compson feels helpless and isolated within his own home. Starting in childhood, Jason begins learning tactics to enable authority. When not receiving what he desires, Jason blames his lack of satisfaction on his family. In “As I Lay Dying,” Anse Bundren…
