In the epic of the Iliad the hero Achilles had learned that pride can get in the way of your priorities. Achilles had got into argument with his commander at war Agamemnon who is Menelaus brother. In the midst of the argument Agamemnon said this statement:”You may be a good man in a fight, Achilles…Some suitable prize of their own choice, But if it doesn’t, I’ll just go take something myself” in Book I line 140 – 147. Which means that Agamemnon was going to take Briseis from Achilles. Breseis…

done at home—better, maybe, because it was so quiet; but there I WAS, with both of 'm on my hands, and there I had to stick till about dawn this morning; then some men in a skiff come by, and as good luck would have it the slave was setting by the pallet with his head propped on his knees sound asleep; so I motioned them in quiet, and they slipped up on him and grabbed him and tied him before he knowed what he was about, and we never had no trouble.” (Twain 297). This quote shows that Huck…

get them to deviate. At work, honesty and integrity are preached and are valued above productivity or ingenuity, yet rarely rewarded beyond a standard paycheck. A security guard is payed $10 per hour and given the job of watching, and protecting pallets of money often totaling millions of dollars, on its way to an incinerator. An accountant makes $35,000 per year, while trying to pay off student loans and support a young family. A high school graduate gets a job at a fast food restaurant trying…

Dragonetti spent much of his life experimenting on the bass, working to perfect its capabilities. In his younger days he had sampled both the four string and the three string basses but preferred the three string which he would tune in various ways. He was one of the first to drop the tuning from A- D- G to G- D- G, giving him access to lower pitches. When he played Der Freischütz he would lower the A string down to F# for the first two movements. His hard work and experimentations with the bass…

When the canoes stood well offshore, she looked back. Her father lay alone in the clearing, resting on the pallet of branches. But, as she watched, his spirit rose out of his body. The spirit of her dead father walked toward the trees, his hand in the She Manitou’s hand,” (189). Although Annuka and Father Laforgue believed in different higher powers, they were…

The artists that have inspired me the most so far in my work are Anselm Kiefer, the Chapman brothers and Monet. I first came across Anselm Kiefer and Monet when doing the painting module of our project; although Kiefer is more of a mixed media artist; I had been aware of their work previously however. I came across the Chapman brothers in one of our art history lectures and thought it could be quite interesting to see how their landscapes compare to the more classical painted landscapes. Monet…

The application of color and paint in a piece creates a noticeable surface texture within the work. This surface texture can be used to enhance the general chaos or conversely the straightforwardness of a work. The use of color within the image also has an effect on the overall mood of the painting and the viewer’s perception of the subjects. In Claude Monet’s Grainstacks (Snow Effect) the heavily textured surface of the painting and visibility of the separate brush strokes creates a sense of…
