    Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark was a very action-packed movie with the main character really not accomplishing his goal. The whole theme and the whole central idea of the film was that sometimes in life things are just meant to not be disturbed to be in your life. Indiana wanted that ark, he tried and risked his life to do as much as he could to get that ark. Only thing was that he was fighting against another archaeologist who also wanted it. With all the problems that it caused, none of them got to keep the ark, because it wasn’t meant to be kept. Way too many problems occur if you do attempt, which is what the movie demonstrated.…

    Permoser depicted torment in a manner that is overtly torturous or painful. He also presents themes of torment through ridicule and comedy, seen in the set The Four Seasons, made in 1685 in ivory for the Green Vault in Dresden. The Green Vault was one of Augustus the Strong’s main projects, evolving into an artistic center, featuring many of Permoser’s works. Permoser’s use of mockery is his subtle way of weaving his own style with his patrons, Augustus the Strong. These ivory mythological characters each embody a specific season: Flora for spring, Ceres for summer, Bacchus for autumn, Vulcan for winter.…

    Ursula Hegi’s novel, Stones From The River, exposes the reader of the persecutions of religious beliefs, a gossiping dwarf, and the people of Burgdorf, a small German town in the time of the Nazi Holocaust. The novel is set in World War I and continues through World War II. The Second World War is brought on by the hunger of power it is known as the otherness war. “In the Third Reich otherness is a crime.”(Chadwick 2) Hitler, a Nazi leader, wants to gain control of Germany and surrounding countries. Hitler is a feared name even in our society today. We see things through the narrator’s eyes. The novel has many flat characters in it. However, some characters are more developed than others are. Each character has a connection to the narrator whether he/she is a friend, a neighbor, or a bully at school. This novel is unique to Hegi because of her background. She lives in a “suburb of “Dusseldorf” before she immigrates to the United States in 1965” (Simon 1). It was unusual for her to write about this because the people who survive the holocaust never will talk about the past, they all believe in the ‘tight lip’ philosophy.…

    In Bread from Stones: The Middle East and the Making of Modern Humanitarianism Keith Watenpaugh provides a new and earlier origin for the rise of “modern humanitarianism” which he defines as an “ideology of organized compassion (p. 4). Watenpaugh argues that the secular, organized humanitarianism we are familiar with today originated in the interwar period in the Ottoman Empire.

However, after the first World War and particularly after the Armenian genocide, the humanitarian efforts in the Middle East were largely organized efforts…
