Yusuf Egal Mrs. Park English IV-4th Period 10 September 2012 Name and Identity The importance of name and identity in this novel is far more drastic than a reader could understand. A name has so much meaning that many people are not able to fathom it. A simple name change does not alter the fabric of a person. The changing of a name symbolizes the double identity of Gogol. In Lahiri’s novel‚ the main character fights an identity crisis because of his highly unusual name. Gogol struggles between

The object that I chose to study is a board for the game of “Pegs and Holes‚” which I found at the Museum of Fine Arts. The game board dates to 2000-1500 C.E. and is from the Levant region in the Near East. The object itself is a stone board with multiple holes carved into the top.

Played by two people‚ the game’s objective seems to have been for a player to race their pegs through the holes and seize

discuss is ethics. I believe that museum exhibits should be set up in a way that visitors can learn ethics from viewing or interacting with the exhibit. I say this because as far as museum ethics I know that for the most part‚ ethics concentrating on environment‚ marketing‚ education‚ and services‚ are already confronted. This is a concern for me because the last museum I visited‚ the Michael Garman Museum claimed to be a museum‚ but it did not feel like a museum to me. According to ICOM‚ “ethics

Strengths: The Collections. The collection of the clyfford Still Museum far and away the largest collection of work by Clyfford Still on earth. The museum has more than 900 paintings in its collections and many have yet to even been unpacked. The museum has plenty of fodder for new‚ never before seen exhibitions of Still’s for decades to come. This means there will be something brand new to market 3-4 times a year. Repetition is rarely something that is done in marketing this institution‚ especially

Beloved & The Colored Museum Kimberly Austin-Baker ENGL & AAAS 469: Contemporary African American Literature University of Michigan-Dearborn The Colored Museum by George C. Wolfe and Beloved by Toni Morrison are two very different literary masterworks.

After visiting the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts‚ I will write about four art works. The first one is called Salome Receiving the Head of St. John the Baptist by Andrea Solario. The work is very colorful‚ and it shows chiaroscuro with the dark background and light on the faces of Salome and John the Baptist. The focal point is on John’s head. This is one of Solario’s most notable works‚ and the figure style is influenced by Leonardo Da Vinci. The story behind the painting is that Herodias had a quarrel

People who are an art lover‚ they’ll love and enjoy this museum. I know it must not be one of the art museum that is on the list of many people “to do list” once they land in New York City because it is not as popular as the Metropolitan Museum of Art. However‚ it is a better choice than the Metropolitan Museum because it is a remarkable way to spend an afternoon in an art museum and to view a variety of recognizable artists. The Frick Museum is a jewel. You’re allowed to wander around the Frick’s

of Liberty‚ the Empire State Building‚ Madison Square Garden‚ Radio City Music Hall‚ Central Park‚ and the list goes on. But the thing that intrigues and excites me about New York City is the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I will never forget the moment I first laid eyes on the Metropolitan Museum. It was freshman year and I went with my mother and my brother. It was after dark and all its lights were shining on the building. The building itself looked like something straight out of a movie.
