The Four Loves, authored by British novelist C.S. Lewis, is often viewed as one of the best books written on the subject of love as it pertains to religion. In the book, Lewis covers many ideas including the four types of love which include: storgé (empathetic love/affection), philia love (the love between friends), Eros (erotic/romantic love), and Agapé (the unconditional ‘God’ love). In this book, Lewis also covers the differences between need and gift love; however, one of the most astounding statements that Lewis makes is in the storgé passage, specifically in the section about affection where he states, “Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our natural lives.” (pg. 53). Lewis also states, "The highest does not stand without the lowest. (pg.9) If affection is part of storgé, which is considered the lowest love, then to obtain the higher loves one must have affection. Furthermore, storgé (commonly referred to as affection) creates stamina in natural relations between people due precisely to that low-level nature it…

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.…

One topic I found interesting from this chapter was the artist Durer. I liked his pieces The Four Horsemen of Apocalypse and Knight, Death, and the Devil. These paintings do indeed show his love of what the Bible teaches. These woodcuts and engravings make you want to look deeply at the paintings to discover the message they hold. Knight, Death, and the Devil gives a lesson that is hard to stay true to for every Christian whether they realize they need it or not. Wordly views and ideals surround a person every minute of everyday of his or her life, which can seem overwhelming and very difficult to fight against. Yet Durer is so true to his beliefs and love for the Scripture that he creates an image to show how important it is to not let the world dictate how you think and act.…
As the world of literature expands each and every day, it is the responsibility of the reader to preserve the value of old tales and writings from the roots of our established society.

In the Grimm Brothers fairy tale known as “The Four Skillful Brothers”, value is found beneath the words of every line as four brother’s travel down four unique paths to find their place in the world.

For example, Although Aries and Scorpio are both ruled by mars (Scorpio is also ruled by Pluto), Aries are much more feisty and not…
