Download or read book Killing Abraham Lincoln written by Festus Ogunbitan and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This epideictic oratory is dedicated to, Thespis of Icaria, the inventor of acting, the first actor, playwright, director, and producer in the world s theater. My project is a classic drama style of political theater started in Greece thousands of years ago by Thespis of Icaria on the stage for demonstrating the political views of the Greek civilization. This revolution was passed on to the Romans in the Basilica and Supreme Court where Roman politicians communicate their political views to fellow Romans and Countrymen. Later, the revolution surfaced in England when John Milton, Christopher Marlow, and William Shakespeare started the classic British theater. In the contemporary period, America has carried on this tradition on the Senate Floor, and the House of Representatives Congress. The country has also generated talk show hosts, comedians, and moviemakers to carry on this tradition of political theater. I came across this idea while studying Masters of Arts in Liberal Arts at Sacramento State University in Sacramento California. Since then, I have been adapting history of the Greeks, Romans, Americans and other nations, into Greek style epideictic drama, distinctively reflecting the identities and political views of each nation through classic drama. Hoping to permanently retell the history of America, I have decided to use Aristotle s theory of catharsis to rewrite America s history through the locus of all presidents to have a permanent knowledge of America s history. All the plays shall incorporate the principles of American politics, focusing on the values and virtues of the Conservatives and the Liberals."

Download or read book Collaboration in the Arts from the Middle Ages to the Present written by Silvia Bigliazzi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Collaboration' is a complex cultural and political phenomenon: the combined practice of two or more artists, simultaneously or across time, or the willing (and therefore publicly reprehensible) collusion implied by the term's specifically historical meaning. These interdisciplinary essays propose collaboration as a strategy for ensuring creativity within a dynamic tradition, and as a means of mutual enrichment both between individuals and between disciplines. Writers from Chaucer to Wilde and Conrad are considered in this context, together with medieval iconography and German Romanticism. Yet collaboration as collusion and coercion are also implicated in diverse political and cultural agendas informed by xenophobic and exclusive, rather than inclusive, ideologies. Their impact spreads beyond the lives and minds of individual artists and individual texts to touch on the relationship between the citizen and the state, whether writers from the 'losing' side, the immigrant in Italy, writers who supported Fascisim, or the Roma in Britain.

Download or read book Winning Revolutions written by J. Harold Ellens and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The product of 35 senior scholars' research, these volumes examine the psychology driving the religious, political, and economic forces that cause turbulence and violence in human society. Religious, political, and economic revolts have defined the human experience throughout history. These kinds of universal turbulence continue to be the dominate source of human suffering and perplexity during the first decade of the 21st century. What can intensive study of the psychodynamics of cultural and social eruptions tell us that may serve to move cultures around the world beyond ongoing strife? This work seeks to find out, examining the spectrum of cultural and social eruptions from ancient Jewish, Christian, and Muslim revolutions to the modern day economic and political turbulence in Eastern Europe, the Near East, and Latin America. The breadth of this three-volume set ranges from the 12th century BCE to the current struggles in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria; and from the irrational violence of the French Revolution to the genuine quest for liberty of the American Revolution and the Singing Revolutions in the Baltic States in recent decades. Each volume is introduced with a description of its philosophical perspective and concludes with a brief summarization of the takeaways of the research presented.

Download or read book Rousseau and Freedom written by Christie McDonald and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-22 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debates about freedom, an ideal continually contested, were first set out in their modern version by the eighteenth-century French philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau. His ideas and analyses were taken up during the philosophical enlightenment, often invoked during the French Revolution, and still resonate in contemporary discussions of freedom. This volume, first published in 2010, examines Rousseau's many approaches to the concept of freedom, in the context of his thought on literature, religion, music, theater, women, the body, and the arts. Its expert contributors cross disciplinary frontiers to develop thought-provoking new angles on Rousseau's thought. By taking freedom as the guiding principle of their analysis, the essays form a cohesive account of Rousseau's writings.

Book excerpt: Reclaiming The Dream of Dr. King Jr. Through Lyric Poems of I Have to Dream. Out of Africa comes the king of peace, and his dreams for truth and justice for all people. Out of his father's heritage comes his wisdom and eloquence in speech. Out of his desire for knowledge comes his insight that discerns the true meaning of existence. From his love for unity and harmony comes the fruit of life and living that develops from social gospel of righteousness to correct social wrongs. Thus the seed for the harvest of civil rights is planted in the green pastures of Atlanta, and the stage is set for the manifestation of his vocation in life. Rambunctious is his instinct from his youth as he lives a restless life of searching for the future in his thirst for knowledge. And bounty is the harvest of the change, which fulfills his goal of making all people's dreams come true.
