In the video, it is apparent that Raphel painted these marvelous works of art in 1509-1511 to display the four branches of human knowledge. The four branches that are represented are philosophy, theology, poetry, and justice. He also conveyed how the church is as equally significant as human knowledge through his paintings. He put the paintings with the concepts of the church on the opposite side of those that represented philosophy to show that they are different, but deserve an equal chance to be observed. Moreover, through his paintings, he was able to create a clear picture of both concepts for people to understand his perspective as well as create their own. He put two philosophers, Plato and Aristotle, who have two different views

Prior to the “discovery” of the New World from the accounts of European explorers, Native Americans controlled the land. As explored in the article “1491” by Charles C. Mann, the natives achieved a complex and diverse culture. During the evolution of these people, they developed efficient agricultural methods that proved to be resilient. They can be lauded for the fact that “more than half the crops grown today were initially developed in the Americas” (Paragraph 33). While the Sumerians were inventing the wheel and writing, the Native Americans created a system that ultimately provided food for the rest of the world. Their advancements in farming fueled many people and generations to come. Another tremendous advancement in agricultural technique
The Puritan’s political, economic, and social development in the 17th Century was prompted by the ideology that God had bestowed upon them the power and the mission to spread Christianity to all the people of the Earth.
Throughout the 1450s and the 1850s, many people were moved around to different continents. Some were enslaved and forced and others moved freely. These migrants colonized lands in the Americas. Portugal, England, and Spain transported the most migrants into the Americas.

Daniel lyle History 17A (early U.S) Dr. Halverson Thursday, July, 24, 2014 Source analysis paper When reading about the creation of an Anglo-American, from 1660 to 1750, one can distinguish a few traits that were beginning to develop. The most commonly found development is that of a new society where people are treated more equally. This development was monumental at the time because there were always barriers of gender, religion, and race that separated people, but between 1660 and 1750 society changed to a form of expectance that we Americans are so familiar with now in 2014.
f North America in the 1500s. Before that time, the continent was an unknown place to them. These adventurers saw it as an entirely new land, with animals and plants to discover. They also met new people in this exciting New World—people with fascinating lifeways that the Europeans had never seen and languages they had never heard. This New World for Europeans was actually a very old world for the various people they met in North America. Today we call those people American Indians.
It is a famous example of Renaissance art showing portraiture, realism, and some perspective. In this painting there are four distinct characters. Each has a different expression that shows how they are feeling. There is also more detail in the faces then in any other parts of the painting. Another technique it demonstrates is heightened realism. Whereas before the Renaissance the figures may have been painted simply and in only enough detail to get the general idea across, these figures are shown more realistically. Lastly there is the technique of perspective as shown in the background of the painting. The sea stretches out into the sky and the land in the background is shown how it would look if the viewer was actually
The primary source I chose to research is The Act of Supremacy (1534). This was an act passed by the English Parliament establishing the English monarch, which at the time was Henry Tudor VIII, as the head of state and religious head of the Church of England. Although there is always some glamorization in the writing and depiction of historically based movies, I enjoyed both “The Other Boleyn Girl” and the cable series “The Tudors”. I found Henry VIII quite interesting, twisting both law and religion to suit his particular wants.
In the center of the painting is Plato on the left and Aristotle on the right. These two are showing the two parts within philosophy, Timaeus and Ethics. The other philosophers on the sides are ‘corresponding to the separate schools of thought within the two major divisions, each carrying on the philosophical arguments for which they were famous (Fleming, 304). Plato: (428-c. 347 BC) was a Greek philosopher and one of the most creative and influential thinkers in Western philosophy. Plato founded the Academy in Athens, the institution often described as the first European
Gorgeously. Striking. Grace. The golden painting is taking up by the two most iconic symbols of Christianity: Jesus Christ and Virgin Mary. Christ gently placing a golden grown on the inclined head of the Virgin Mary, who is sitting on the right side of Jesus; her hands crossed over her chest symbolist of humble, reverent and loyalty. This position was purposely set by Fabriano. In Christianity art, position is significant in dividing between good manners and malefactors. For instance, in The Last Judgment by Giotto di Bondone in 1305, heaven was placed on right of Christ, and hell was on the left. This ideology was clearly stated in the bible “...before him shall be gathered all nations:
I personally get a sense of perfection in a human world when I look at this painting, which is a bit misleading but appropriate for a time in which men were beginning to question the divine and finding answers in the natural world where science and mathematical solutions were starting to make sense of everything around us.
