Scarey Emotions from the Oil Painting Joseph Sturge’ by the Artist ‘Alexander Rippingille’

I think about how the world had betrayed this women. They made this woman plump and empty, she does not even have a face. This statue is nude showing everything to the naked eye, she does not have a desirable body. This sculpture shows how much a woman was respected back in the day, which was very little.

Frederick Douglass is termed as one of the gifted orators and an outstanding protestor (abolitionist). Abolitionists can be termed as individuals who believed that their role as Christians was to fight against the oppression that was brought about by slavery because of their faith. Protestors such as Douglass believed that active participation and crusading would help them attain freedom for slaves.

“Whatever cultivation and improvement could be carried on by means of such slaves, was properly carried on by their master. It was at his expense. The seed, the cattle, and the instruments of husbandry, were all his. It was for his benefit. Such slaves could acquire nothing but their daily maintenance.”

Many people believe that Christians played a great role in abolishing slavery. However, Douglass’ ideas about religion and its connection to slavery shine a light on the dark side of Christianity. Douglass’ account of his own life is a very eloquent first hand retelling of the suffering and cruelty that many slaves were going through. His account gives a detail of the ills that were committed against the slaves. The atrocities committed by the various different masters varied in intensity depending on the masters’ individual personality (Glancy 42). This first hand narrative gives us a glimpse in to the connection between religion (Christianity) and slavery.

From his life as a slave to his escape and support of the abolitionist movement to even his attack on segregation, Frederick Douglass was the true embodiment of the abolitionist movement. Of course, there were other important abolitionists as well such as John Quincy Adams and Arthur Tappan. Despite their importance, John Quincy Adams had only fought for the abolitionist movement late into his life, and Arthur Tappan had donated large amounts of money while also writing some Abolitionist articles. Yet neither of them were able to get the public’s support like Frederick Douglass had, making him the most important figure in the Abolitionist

The irony of this is that slave owners saw no wrong in what they were doing, regardless of how they treated their respective slaves. Slavery, as an institution, was from the perspective of the slave owners, justified. Kolchin describes that, in response, slaves were overtly resistive to their predicament at times, while others provided less obvious resistance in the form of slow work, feigning illness, and even sabotage.

What does reaction to John Brown’s raid in the North suggest about the depth of antislavery sentiment outside the slaveholding states?

Some may believe his early and later depiction of African American bondage through abolitionist speeches and the recanting of his childhood are instances that prove his narrative’s main focus is holstered on the motive to enlighten the slave owning and non-slave owning populous of the farce that they have come to consider the norm. While I agree that there are distinct moments where his writings and focus of that time period are estranged to only the thought of getting support of his brothers and sisters, this mustn’t be confused with what the narrative itself was written for. The aversion and acerbity of his slave owners, workers and

The statue is a Roman reproduction of a Greek work. It shows Venus, the goddess of love, standing bare-breasted and clutching a piece of cloth draped around her hips. At her feet, there is a dolphin that, practically, adds support to the piece and artistically makes an allusion to Venus's birth from the sea. As the notes from the Getty Museum explain, the statue is derived from a very popular Greek statue created by the sculptor Praxiteles around 350 B.C. The statue was so popular that it was copied by many artists.

The body of the woman has mane and the hair fall over accentuated breast feature on the body. The mane is o presenting both a feel of nobility and fright on the face of a lioness, which has a skull of bone and stylized whiskers on the face . The head is raised in a form of adoration with the solar disk and cobra emphasizing the cosmic aspects of the divinity of the goddess . The face is modeled with high precision on which the eyes are small and eyelids that have been painted as it were a collar or the robe’s edge. The statue is in a seated position on a block with the fingers that have been shaped significantly with a focus on the distinctive feature of anatomy that the artist sought to add with much delicacy, resting on her legs. The goddess’s legs have inscriptions that are added to the surface of the throne. She stands as a towering figure with soft feline features that invoke power and fear especially with the nature of her eyes in the statue. Her elegance calls attention to her presenting a valid reason why she was both feared and

The crucifix not only symbolizes Christianity, but also the afterlife, social order, and society’s acceptance of a deeper meaning. When the magistrate demands to know why Meursault continued to shoot the Arab’s body, he is unable to get the answer he wants. Meursault quietly observes when “he took out a silver crucifix which he brandished as he came toward me...Speaking very quickly and passionately, he told me that he believed in God, that it was his conviction that no man was so guilty that God did not forgive him, but in order for that to happen a man must repent and in so doing become like a child whose heart is open and ready to embrace all...He was waving his crucifix almost directly over my head” (68). Although the magistrate tries to be threatening, Meursault views him as being foolish because it didn't matter why he hesitated

The violence slaves endured was the most vivid representation in Douglass’ portrayal of slavery in the South. No emotion or rage was held back by slaveholders and no pity or sympathy was put forth either. Cruelty and abuse were the only means of control the slaveholders believed would keep order. The pain inflicted upon these individuals, even to the point of death in some cases, fueled the typical master’s obsession with domination and power. However, throughout Douglass’s turmoil, his religious faith remained exceptionally strong. At times he found himself questioning how might his God allow him to endure such grueling circumstances, but he never let his curiosity hinder his faith. He also questioned how a man could call himself a Christian and yet treat another human being in such a humane manner. Douglass could never comprehend how the slaveholders were able to justify slavery through their faith and church as some of his “owners” did.

Look at this funny statue. That's a pretty neat statue. This one's a handsome statue.
