certain characteristics. The curved arch is the basis for all structures in this type of style, which would be characteristically different from the Gothic pointed arches that would follow. The buildings in these settlements were characterized by heavy, block-like walls. Large columns were needed to hold up the heavy arches. Simple geometric shapes, like circles or rectangles, were used in the design. The interior tended to emphasize the contrast of lights and shadows as vaulting became more…

Dachau was the first concentration camp established by Nazi Germany in 1933. It was a labor camp designed to punish political prisoners and enemies of Adolf Hitler. Dachau was a model for how other concentration camps should operate under Nazi Germany. Through intense labor and strict regulations, prisoners were taught to obey authority. Dachau was created to enforce compliance with the Nazi regime. Unlike the death camps that focused on extermination, Dachau was a labor camp where the…

Throughout hundreds of years, authors have been using settings to show figurative significances and enhance hidden meanings. Symbolism is the use of symbols to signify ideas and qualities by giving them symbolic meanings that are different from their literal sense. In The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald uses details related to settings as a mean of indirect characterization to reveal the qualities of his characters. Thus, it provides the reader a better understanding of main ideas. His book…

Throughout the observations I noticed there was a relatively even amount of information regarding the four developmental domains: physical, cognitive, social, and emotional. The first instance of physical development was in observation two when children were playing outside. Children were climbing the playground and running around in the play area. Children should be encouraged to run around while outside, if they aren’t then children are antsy in times when they need to be quiet and still.…

that we felt we deserved it. But as December wore on, the last bird remained elusive. We had almost given up. On New Year’s Day, we decided to take a final trip to Hackberry Flats, a wildlife management area that was little more than an observation tower and acres of alternating marsh and flatland. Like Lake Overholser, it was not beautiful, but it held a certain charm; the pale grass met the sky in an unending line across the horizon and the ducks were the only creatures holding out against the…

In 1641, La Maison de Chareton was the first mental institution built in France. The Lunatics’ Tower in Vienna, built in 1784, became a showplace. In La Bicetre, in France, patients were shackled to walls in dark, cramped cells. The cuffs…

I first stumbled upon the Persona series when I was 16. Persona 4 was on sale at GameStop and I had to get my mom to buy it because I was not old enough. During this point in my life, I was struggling with a multitude of issues including existential crises, fitting in with the world, and most importantly, my sexual identity. After reading the back label for information on the game, I thought it was perfect. A bizarre murder mystery is just what I needed to escape reality. Or so I thought. The…

The demographics in the post 1965 era was not limited on the number of immigrants that could admitted in the United States from any country in the Western Hemisphere. The Hart-Cellar Act established a ceiling of 120,000 immigrant visas for the Western Hemisphere. The amount of 20,000 immigrants from Mexico was unrealistic in the 1960s. The number of immigrants was dramatic because there was not that many strict laws as now. During the 1960s it was a lot easier to receive a visa, so the amount of…
