The novel, Animal Farm, was written by George Orwell, this story takes place on a farm where the animals revolt against the humans, developing their own political theory and society. From the start, we learn of a theory composed by Old Major known as Animalism, a theory which has close ties to that of Communism. Following his death, Snowball rules over the farm, but is overthrown by Napoleon. In time both leaders ignore the equality Animalism meant and conditions worsen. The story has a very present similarity of the Russian Revolution and Joseph Stalin’s leading In the revolution, much of the working class had been told . Disillusionment has an effect on attitudes and behaviors because it changes opinions of people, it causes mass confusion and makes people more skeptical, thus making it harder for them to accept the truth. When words are said in a certain way, disillusion becomes the greatest cause of the change in opinion. Said words become the most powerful weapon in the end, it has the power to bring up a person in the darkest of times, and the power to absolutely tear them down. When Napoleon overthrows Snowball, he states in a very convincing way that, “Snowball, who, as we know now, was no better than a criminal,” or traitor as it says in the movie. His persuasive speech and his twisting portrayal of Snowball led to many animals to turn against him and favor Napoleon more. The words were said in a way that the animals choose to accept the explanation without further…

Mary is represented as icons, drawings, paintings, and apparitions, such as La Santa Muerte, La Negrita, Our Lady of the Rock, Madonna, The Virgin of Guadalupe, and Our Lady of the Wall.

Sagrada Familia,” or the Sacred Family. La Sagrada Familia is, therefore, an expiatory temple, which is a type of temple dedicated to a deity to show devotion, which is a reason as to why the work’s scale is so immense, and why Gaudi paid so much attention to small details. Gaudi’s decision to work at such a large scale is also because he wanted the church to be seen from anywhere in the city of Barcelona, inviting those who need salvation to come and be saved. Gaudi’s plan was limited however,…

people did not believe in the power of women to rule especially religious authorities. John Knox, believed “To promote a woman to bear rule, superiority, dominion or empire… is against all nature” (Doc 1). Despite this common belief Elizabeth’s rule was given to her because of her religious values which may be one of the reasons she felt a need to stick so closely to it as when she entered the Spanish Armada she said “ to live or die amongst you all: to lay down for my God” (Doc 7). Knox also…

Ironically, the term was first used contemptuously by critics to describe architecture and paintings that failed to meet their standards of beauty. Baroque art is an "intense movement of explosive energy." It is a powerful, awe inspiring, resplendent style that is full of flamboyant concepts and an overall dramatic quality. One painting that caught my attention was the “The Crucifixion”. Pedro Orrente (Spanish, Murcia 1580–1645 Valencia) was the artist who created this painting. Pedro Orrente…
