Mary Read

Religious allegory is a large topic in this novel. Yann Martel parallels many characters in this novel with Religion and Religious figures. When he meets Orange Juice for the first time, he is overwhelmed with happiness. He even compares her to the 'Virgin Mary’ upon first seeing her. Pi exclaims, “Oh blessed Great Mother, Pondicherry fertility goddess, provider of milk and love, wondrous arm spread of comfort, terror of ticks, picker-up of crying ones, are you to witness this tragedy too?” (Martel, 139)

Lefevers World history Tyler Johnson 27 November 2017 Mary Queen of Scots The book I chose to read was Mary Queen of Scots. The author of this book is Sally Stepanek. The book was published by Chelsea House Publishers in 1987 with a total of 110 pages. The book is about Mary Stuart and her life as a queen and also as a prisoner. It tells of the hardships she had went through and the good times too. To me the book mostly over sees the hardships Mary had went through. Like having to leave her home land

The iconography contained in this painting is religious for the most obvious reasons such as the depiction of the Virgin Mary, baby Jesus, along with the angel holding the Virgin's crown. Also, the capitals that are shown on the left include scenes from the Old Testament which highlight humanity errors. Some of the errors that are depicted are Adam and Eve getting thrown out from the Garden of Eden, the sacrifice of Caine and Abel, God receiving Abel's offering, along with other scenes. Another reason

individuals could read and write, therefore images were very important in delivering messages and teachings. One artwork chosen is “Annunciation” by John Collier created in 2003. This modern artwork shows Gabriel asking Mary if she would become the mother of Jesus. The other one is the “Holy Night Nativity Scene” by Antonio Correggio created in 1530, which focuses on and sets the scene of Jesus’ birth. The Annunciation displays the moment Gabriel was sent by God to tell Mary she would become pregnant

notable enough. I found it interesting how they changed who narrated the story. In the book, the narration was done in more of the author’s POV (Point Of View), while in the movie it was done in Mary’s POV. This was confirmed by this fraise, “My name in Mary Lenox…” in the beginning of the film. In my opinion this was not

Correggio in 1515, and Adoration of the Shepherds, painted by Antonio D'Enrico in 1628, were oil paintings about infant Jesus, his mother Virgin Mary, and his father Joseph. The purpose of all three paintings were to show how inseparable and humble Mary, Joseph, and their son Jesus were. The subject of all three paintings were the infant Jesus, his mother Mary, and his father Joseph. The tone of all three paintings were calm and peaceful. Although the paintings of baby Jesus and his family by Fra Bartolommeo

more meaning than there appears to be. Hester uses sewing as her outlet when she is condemned by the townspeople, but it is through her seclusion and the sewing she does during her time alone that strengthens her faith in herself and God, much like Mary did after she first learned of her pregnancy. This faith proves very helpful to her in more trying times. Yet another symbol is made through the rosebush. The rose bush is a symbol of sin, and Pearl continues to claim

Mary Queen of Scots born 1542 to the beautiful Queen Mary of Guise. Better known as Mary Stuart before her crowning and the granddaughter of Margaret Tudor and the last living descendent of the Tudor-Stuart alliance forged by King Henry VII of England. Besides being set queen on the day of birth, from that point on the queen lived in a fairly happy childhood (Fraser 20). The queen had a very normal childhood but she was unaware of the challenges that laid ahead of her. Everyone knew that Mary was

is able to read through the composition of the panels. One narrative that is of high importance is of The Crucifixion. Because it is so important, this scene is often arbitrarily placed in panels just to emphasize the engagement of the viewer to the importance of religion and the church. The setting of the The Crucifixion is quite the same in most if not all crucifixion paintings, with the placement of a triangular dialogue beginning with the Virgin, Christ, Saint John, and Saint Mary Magdalene.

meaning. Objects or colors were assigned descriptions to help better represent what the values or virtues of a character or story were. One frequently portrayed Christian religious story is of the Annunciation where the Angel Gabriel comes to the Virgin Mary to tell her she will be the Mother of God. This key moment of the New Testament is a favorite of Christian artists throughout time, and the story of the Virgin and Angel is timeless. The Christian iconography of the
