Upon entering the RISD museum I was greeted by the quaint streets of the historic east-side of Providence. It's often an overlooked part of town due to the city life but really earns it's merit in beautifully restored colonial homes and colorful street art. The streets had tall green trees that bordered the sidewalk perfectly, and the light post were littered with local stickers either for a cause or promoting a local artist. Luckily, I was able to find parking rather easily because I went on an…

with England, under the Laws of Wales Acts of 1536 and 1543, did bring about some positive changes in Wales but the benefit of these changes has so often been exaggerated by historians, who have failed to properly address the shortcomings of the changes and the effect of changes on society as a whole and not just on the rising gentry class. For example many historians, like Peter Roberts, have emphasised the positive political impacts that the union achieved for Wales, such as the gaining of…

similar claims which can then be substituted into each other to form a series of propositions of arbitrary complexity (Descriptions 176). As a consequent of this treatment, Russell is able to easily to distinguish the phrases such as “Wales is Wales” from “Wales is the founder of Wikipedia” – the former is a logical statement of the form “P=P” whereas the second is a series of assertions and claims that happen to evaluate to true (Descriptions 175). Similarly, the sentence “The headmaster of…

Five-course dinners, four francs fifty, eighteen cents, wine restaurant in Paris. For some odd reason he wished that he had” (Fitzgerald 700). This statement made by Fitzgerald shows the regret of the lavish lifestyle Wales used to have.
