.... helped in aiding their visual representations. What made Egyptian art unique, was that every picture told a story of an important event in the society, which helps us study who they were as a people, and what their life struggles were. This primitive form of art laid the ground- work for the many types of art which would follow it. The next important era was the time of Greek art. Their work was greatly influenced by the Egyptians. Their early art was very geometric in shape and glorified Gods and people in their works. Eventually as time progressed, they began to soften their edges and lines and concentrate on the human form, which they considered .....

.... concentrated fighting broke out in Colorado, just after the Civil war. Government officials tried to force the Arapaho and Cheyenne from an area that had been granted to them ten years earlier. Warfare continued for three years until Black Kettle, Cheyenne chief, was trapped at Sand Creek in eastern Colorado. The militia ignored Black Kettle’s repeated attempts to surrender and killed men, women and children. This was the start of the many wars between Indians and the United States. Although Plains Indians fought hundreds of battles from 1860 to 18890, their cause was doomed because they were dependent on the buffalo for food, clothing, fuel, a .....

.... as they divide the nation. An important characertistic of the Era of Good Feelings is that while America goes through many changes she still tries to maintain a nation of unity. James Monroe aspired to achieve a government of national unity. Through his efforts he hoped to counter-act the rising feelings of sectionalism. His cabinet reflects this attitude. Representing the North he appointed John Quincy Adams (a Federalist) as secretary of state. To represent the South he appointed John C. Calhoun as secretary of war. In an attempt to create a government of unification, a major problem is encountered, the issue of slavery. In 1819 the number .....

.... through Dallas, Texas. At this time, Kennedy was shot in the head and neck by a sniper. He was then taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Later, police arrested Lee Harvey Oswald, a former U.S. Marine, at a nearby theater. By the next morning, Oswald was booked for the murder of President John F. Kennedy. Two days later, Oswald was killed by Jack Ruby, a Dallas nightclub owner, while he was being moved from the city to the county jail. At a glance, the above story sounds as if this should be an open-and-shut case. After all, according to the facts above, Oswald must have killed Kennedy. However, you must take a .....

.... have that much lasting effect upon him. It seemed as if young Duke was more inclined to baseball at a young age. Duke got his first job selling peanuts at Washington Senator's baseball games. This was the first time Duke was placed as a "performer" for a crowd and had to first get over his stage fright. At the age of fourteen, Duke began sneaking into Frank Holliday's poolroom. His experiences from the poolroom taught him to appreciate the value in mixing with a wide range of people. As Duke's piano lessons faded into the past, Duke began to show a flare for the artistic. Duke attended Armstrong Manual Training School to study commercial art instead o .....

.... supported. Spain committed many acts of war and Americans believed these helped cause the Spanish-American War: - Restricted Cuban independence - Cuban placed in Concentration Camps - Refused to give them independence - The DeLome Letter - Sinking of the Maine - Yellow Journalism When Spain slaughtered Cubans in the Concentration Camps many Americans were outraged. Cuba had begun to declare independence from Spain so they were placed in these camps. Support for Cubans cause of independence affected “deep historical roots� in the US which became the main cause for war. In World War I, problems developed when the following happ .....

.... The Baroque Era was concerned with feelings, the stronger the better. This could be seen throughout the churches. In church structure the proportions are grandiose, they are designed to impress and awe the observers. Gold and rich textures and surfaces can be seen all through the churches. All of these themes that I have discussed are also clear in the music of the Baroque period. It paints pictures of vibrant colours and triggers strong emotions. The desire to discover these themes is evident in the invention of the exciting new form music, opera, and in the use of operatic techniques in dramatic music for the church. Important Mu .....

.... masterpiece is the address he made after the first battle with opposing Grecian city Sparta. This civil war in Greece had created chaos and sparked worry in the Athenians. Pericles’ Funeral Oration was a reminder to them. The great speech was a pep-rally to restate the original reason for which they were fighting; to honor the noble soldiers that died while they were free and to boldly request the people honor such fine men by following in their footsteps. It was the main purpose of this speech, to remind Athenians what their loved ones had been dying for in the battles with Sparta. Pericles wanted to instill national pride in the city along .....

.... towards Australia and vice versa ( focusing primarily on America's role in the conflict). This supports Siracusa's other work "America's Australia : Australia's America" which takes a more direct focus on the Australian American relationship (Chapter Three), hence its Title. In keeping with the main focus of the War, American involvement, McMahon deals with this concept in fourteen tightly written and easily comprehendable Chapters. This results in identifying the problems and the outcomes associated with the War. The outcomes of these problems associated with the War primarily manifested themselves on the battlefield not in the sheltered walls of .....

.... of most ancient sculptures so as not to give them any particular focus or expression, and they are styled with regular upper and lower curves, making them semicircular. The mouth is long and fine-lipped which is typical of Fourth Dynasty kings. It curves neither up nor down, showing no emotion whatsoever, creating a very vacant, placid stare. The Seated Statue of Gudea and The Female Head from Uruk are just a couple of other statues with the same empty, expressionless stare. However, the rest of the features of the sculpture and the thick neck are more like images from the Third Dynasty. The tops of the ears and the tip of the nose have been b .....
