Heinrich Wölfflin

To help one differentiate between the Renaissance Era and Baroque Era Heinrich Wolfflin created the Wolfflin Method. The Wolfflin Method compares the two eras in a masterful way that helps one simplify the differences between the Renaissance and Baroque Eras. The Renaissance Era is represented by linear, planar, closed, and multiplicity elements. All of these elements combined to create a crisp painting where lines and shapes are distinguished. The Baroque Era is represented by painterly, recessional

High Renaissance and Baroque Styles The Renaissance and Baroque are two difference styles of art, but they play an important role in the history of art. Based on the five concepts in Wolfflin’s “Principles of Art History” to compare and contrast two artworks: “Delivery of the Keys” (about 1481-1482) by Pietro Perugino, which is created with high Renaissance style, and “Raising of the Cross” (about 1610-1611) by Peter Paul Rubens is created with Baroque style. Although “Delivery of the keys” and

human condition with emotion. The poetry is by poet Ludwig Heinrich Christoph Hölty. Clara Schumann paved the way for women composers and was a finer musician than many of her contemporaries. Clara Schumann was renowned in her time, for her outstanding piano skills and her performances as a child prodigy. She composed “Lorelei” in 1843; it is towards the end of her lieder output from the years 1831 to 1853. The text is by German Poet Heinrich Heine, a favorite author among Robert Schumann and Franz

Confessions of a Key Board Dabbler On September 9th I attended my first SWIC Music Faculty Preview Recital at the Schmidt Art Center. The venue for the afternoon recital was held in the gallery room, a room set up for an audience of about 50 music majors. In the front of the hall sat a white grand piano on parquet floors; the walls of the room were adorned with art of varying mediums. Having mucked around on the piano as a child, I sat enthusiastically as a musical amateur in great awe of anyone

Hitler and Kristina The Holo-1 is rising and Hitler switches the engine to autopilot. He will wait in the open skies to welcome Maria and her fleet. The scanners show no activity for a distance of ten light years. A clean sweep. “I have become quite fond of your tea,” said Hitler, and Kristina blushes at the compliment from the Supreme Leader of God knew how many galaxies. Hitler was like a god in her eyes, though a stab of jealousy shot through her heart at the thought of his reuniting with

which is the SS. The SS was founded in April of 1925 by Adolf Hitler. The SS was discovered as a group of personal bodyguards for Hitler. The small group of the SS went from being only 300 members in 1925, to about 50,000 in 1933, because of Heinrich Himmler. Heinrich Himmler commanded the SS in 1929, to 1945 when its disintegration occurred. Between about 1934 to 1936, the SS expanded their responsibilities and gained control of Germany’s police forces. Since the SS gained more responsibilities they

social groups in their contemporary time periods. It is clear that this is certainly the case with the 1975 novel The Lost Honour of Katharina Blum, (also referred to as How Violence Develops and Where it Can Lead), written by the German Author, Heinrich Boll. The Lost Honour is, on the surface, an attack on yellow journalism and the damage it causes to the lives of the people reported on. However, with a more in depth analysis of the novel we are able to see

"We could describe (Heinrich) Schliemann's excavations on the hill of Hissarlik and consider their results without speaking of Troy or even alluding to it," Georges Perrot wrote in 1891 in his Journal des Savants. "Even then, they would have added a whole new chapter to the history of civilization, the history of art" (qtd. in Duchêne 87). Heinrich Schliemann's life is the stuff fairy tales are made of. A poor, uneducated, and motherless boy rises through his hard work
