Beginning in 17th century Italy, the Baroque era is notorious for its exaggeration of movement, and detail meant to convey excitement and tension. Influenced by the Counter Reformation, art began to impart religious themes with detail, particularly towards emotion and drama meant to convince people that Catholicism remained legitimate. One such artist in this movement was Juan Sánchez Cotán, a Spanish Carthusian Monk. Although the bulk of his work comprises religious scenes, he is famous for his work in still life. Another artist specializing in this genre, Clara Peeters, pioneered the way for other Flemish still life artists. While neither conveyed drama, both exhibited competence in creating beautiful and realistic still life paintings.

In the 1980’s and 1990’s, society wasn’t the most accepting of places for people who were different from the “social norms”. Now I know, people today still struggle with trying to fit in and be “normal” but it was different. Being a gay man living in San Fransisco at the time, which had a large gay population, Richard Rodriguez had a hard time dealing with the discrimination he faced. Richard Rodriguez was an American journalist who wrote and published a memoir about his life as a gay man. In October of 1990, Rodriguez published his memoir “Late Victorians” in Harper’s Magazine, a critically acclaimed publication of the time. In his memoir, Rodriguez describes what it was like to realize he was gay and watch as the country changed to become a more accepting place. He does this by setting up how things can change and then explaining the actual ways things change for the gay population.

Josquin’s career was defined by the invention of the printer which allowed his masses and other compositions to be printed and shared more easily among the country. In many of his pieces, he illustrates his gift of the pervasive imitation technique: a polyphonic piece with the repetition of a melody at different pitch levels than the original. Many scholars contribute his textural influences on the beginning of word-painting technique (music that reflects the emotion or meaning of the song). He wrote all different types of music throughout his lifetime such as: masses, motets, instrumental pieces, chansons, and even motet-chanson (a new form during the time). He had many techniques for his masses such as paraphrase and canonic masses. Many of his motets, he wrote for five or six voices instead of the standard four voices and often used imitation. The most famous of his pieces are Ave Maria… Virgo serena and Missa Pange lingua. Overall, Josquin des Prez was one of the most well-known and influential composer during the Renaissance period and many scholars credit him to be the first to master polyphonic music. He contributed tons to the Franco-Flemish school and helped lead the way for greater harmonic development. He is truly a well-rounded composer who helped push the Renaissance musical period to the next level and created many beautiful, well-known sacred and secular

Queen Victoria was born on May 24, 1819, in Kensington Palace in London. Her parents were Edward, the Duke of Kent, and Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg. When Queen Victoria was 8 months old her father passed away, and her mother reacted by shunning Victoria's uncles on her father’s side, William IV and George IV. Having had a secluded upbringing her personality hardened and she grew into having strong prejudices towards others and became very stubborn. She was also inclined to self-pity. Her mother's advisor Sir John Conroy twisted her childhood from her. He was the one who had convinced her mother to shun the uncles, and convinced her to raise Victoria by the "Kensington system." This system isolated Victoria from most, and, in Conroy's hopes, would make her depend on him to rule the country. When both her uncle's passed away before succeeding the throne, at 18 years old she became the Queen, and she did so alone. The one thing her mother did teach her was to be cautious in who she friended. Victoria's memory held firm of those who mistreated her, and she was not one to 'forgive and forget'. Queen Victoria disagreed with some of the traditions and values that had been around. For one she hated childbirth and everything to do with children, yet she was supposed to represent motherhood and family and she did. Even though she

Reality comes from creating an imagined thought - whether that thought stemmed from something that someone has seen to what someone has heard, or even felt. The composer that will be discussed throughout this essay composed Morir non può il mio cuore in 1566, this composer is none other but Maddalena Casulana. During the years in which Casulana composed music, she was always looking to present her dedications of her madrigal volumes in a way to provide a little more biographical information than most would at the time. Throughout 1560-1569, she began to publish what would ultimately become her three-volume collection of madrigals (1568; 1570; 1583) that were published the year of her death and which were the first three books of madrigals by a women composer to ever be printed (Franck, Brownstone, 1995. Page 46, 48). Casulana presented her music in a very dramatic way, she was different and unique, focusing and attracted to the topics of ones passing and perpetual dying (Sadie, 1980. Page 2). She was an Italian composer and singer who told a story through the pieces she had composed; expressing each piece in a distinct and narrative way. Maddalena Casulana contributed a great deal of music that till this day will be remembered and cherished.

Bang! That was the sound of “the shot heard around the world.” British troops, under the command of the King George III faced off against a few citizens of Boston which became recognized as the start of the Revolutionary War. It is recorded that Patrick Henry said, “We should not forget that the spark which ignited the American Revolution was caused by the British attempt to confiscate the firearms of the colonists.” King George III influenced the Revolutionary war through his lapses in judgement, his overbearing hold on the colonies and his hunger for more power.
