    Greece

    During the Greek Golden Age, art and philosophy expressed hellenic "weltanschauung", their unique outlook on the world and way of life. Through the works of artists, playwrights, and philosophers, one can see both sides of the conflicted systems of the world, such as; good vs. evil, order vs. chaos, stability vs. flux, relativism vs. absolutism and balance and harmony. The Greeks were materialists. They adopted the philosophical doctrine which says that physical matter is the only reality in the universe; everything else, including thought, feeling, mind and will can be explained in terms of physical laws. Their materialism was expressed in an excessive regard for worldly, beautiful material things and concerns. They used their art to show the glories of humanity and man. The sculptors of the Golden Age aimed to create graceful, strong and perfectly formed figures. Their art showed natural positions and thoughtful expressions rather than abstract art forms. Their standards of order and balance became standards for classical art in western civilization. The Greeks were proud of their temples and other architecture, made to honor the gods and beautify the polis (city-state). Their famous architectural styles were the heavy Doric columns and the slender scrolled Ionian columns. The Parthenon, the Greek temple for the goddess Athena, is a impeccable example of symmetry and proportion. The sides of the Parthenon give an optical illusion of perfect balance on all sides. Their desire for balance in art and architecture represents the balance of the world; order and moderation are expressed in the simplicity of lines and shapes.…

    “Ideological hatred breeds racial hatred and intolerance” (p. 297). It is from this ideology that historians have over the years realized how genocides occur within different countries. From 1975 until roughly 1979, the ideology is defined within the genocide that took place within the Portuguese colony of East Timor (p. 279). It was until this time that the country of East Timor had been loosely administered by the Portuguese. Because of this notion that, “…for more than four centuries Portugal had been the dominant, almost exclusive, external influence in East Timor” (p.281). It is also important time because the country of East Timor sought out for their independence from the Portuguese. However, in September of 1974 the neighboring country…

    It’s apparent that the impact of the hidden substances has a big role. Firstly, Turkey is getting stronger and developed day by day. The growth of Turkey in terms of economy, military,political power, etc. made other countries interested. The countries which are capable of understanding the development of Turkey do not want Turkey to continue in this way so the case; Taksim Gezi Parkı protests might be related to other states which want to prevent growth of Turkey. Secondly, it’s possible to see impact of external powers in this process. Lately, Turkey has gained the sympathy of the Middle-East so Turkey has a say in the Middle-East. Furthermore, Turkey pays attention to the relation between Turkey and its neighborhood because of this, Turkey was concerned with Syria since the Syria issue started. The external powers that don’t want Turkey to have a say in the issue of Syria supposed to push-off Turkey from the issue of Syria. In the past, the external powers were taking Turkey away from the international arena…

    Defoe 's Robinson Crusoe was known as a colonization novel. It was considered as the first novel in English literature written in prose narrative. This novel was well received in the literary world and it made the foundation for the realistic fiction genre. Defoe 's novel was based partly on one of the British ships ' sailors ' tale. This Scottish sailor is Alexander Selkirk who refused to go on sailing on the ship after it leaked badly. But the difference between these two stories is obvious. Selkirk chose to be on the island. On that island was not any people while Defoe 's Crusoe was forced to be on the island after the shipwreck, and there were people on the island like Friday and some other ones who released later from the cannibals. The other difference is that the time they spent on the island. So Defoe used at least a part of Selkirk 's story which gave the inspiration for his novel Robinson Crusoe.…
