The painting actually titled Martin Luther was created around the same time that the Madonna with the Long Neck was created. When comparing the two there is an obvious visual difference in the execution and style of painting…

Though all of the theories are interesting, isn’t it all just a bit too unrealistic? Sure there is some truth in the history of such a group existing at one point centuries ago, it is hard to believe that what we know of as facts about them hasn’t been tampered and tweaked. How can we take these assumptions and ideas seriously? Paranoia can be very debilitating, when minor and , believing that there are people or a species that is ruling us and has so much power in our insignificant actions can…

By comparing these brief summarize of the two tales, it is apparent that in the Grimm’s version, Snow White’s beauty portrays her as naïve and thoughtless, (easily accepting the apple from the “elder woman”), often seen as a sign of weakness. While on OUAT (Once Upon a Time) beauty is used as a weapon, an advantage for the evil queen. So, what’s so bad with women being beautiful in fairytale or on TV shows? In general, nothing is wrong.…

The North American Märchen arrived on the shores of America in multiple families and was spread from generation to generation and from community to community as the families spread out and migrated. Debates may exist whether North American Märchen migrated from the Appalachians to the Ozarks or if European settlers into the Ozarks brought the Märchen with them from Europe.

This simulation inspired me that, the balance of power can not simply explain the cause of World War I. By using Waltz’s three levels of analysis, the individual acts and beliefs, the collision of interest between states, as well as the anarchic nature of the international system could explain the outbreak of WWI. On the individual level, important figures significantly affected the possibility of war and the process of history. For example, Garivalo Princie was a Serbian nationalist who…
