...Jessica Shelton American Intercontinental University Baroque HUMA205– Art Appreciation May 24, 2013 Introduction The baroque period for art was a very important time. The period contributed a lot to art as we know it now, and it introduced both new techniques as well as new artists. The period lasted roughly from the 16th century, and in some places lasted until the 1750’s. Three important pieces of art from that time are Descent from the cross painted by Rembrandt, Conversion of Saint Paul by Caravaggio and Raising of the cross by Peter Paul Rubens. The three artworks will be described, along with a summary of the artist’s personal views of art. The personal views of the artists are often times influenced by the trends and schools of thought during the time period. Along with being described, the pieces will be analyzed, and how they fit into the time period with be explained. The three paintings will also be compared and contrasted, explaining their similarities and their differences. Description of Works The first painting is Rembrandt’s, The Descent from the Cross. This along with all the other paintings featured is a very moving piece. For religious people, this was a very moving and emotional scene. The painting features Jesus, whom had previously been hanging on the cross. Jesus is being removed from the cross by his followers, the main focus point being Jesus himself and the man who is holding his body while others climb the cross to continue trying to...

...Verdiepingsopdracht Caravaggio Verdiepingsopdracht Caravaggio Voorwoord Dit rapport is onder andere ontstaan uit een misinterpretatie Wellicht was niemand erachter gekomen wanneer ik er niet over zou beginnen, maar omdat het een vergissing is die voort komt uit oprechte interesse wil ik het u als lezer niet onthouden. Dit rapport is een verdiepend onderzoek over een kunstenaar uit het oriëntatierapport. Voor het oriëntatierapport heb ik de Italiaanse kunstenaar Baglione behandeld, waarin ik zijn kunst en werkwijze tegenover die van Caravaggio zette. Het schilderij van Caravaggio bleek tijdens het schrijven van dat rapport veel beter bij mij als persoon te passen. Ook viel zijn complete oeuvre beter bij mij in de smaak. Doordat ik mij uit interesse verdiepte in Caravaggio, groeide mijn interesse. Vervolgens heb ik onbewust het haalbaarheidsonderzoek op hem toegespitst, in plaats van op Baglione. Dat ik deze misstap had begaan, ontdekte ik pas laat in het onderzoek waardoor corrigeren niet mogelijk was. Dit heeft geresulteerd in een onderzoek over een schilderij wat ik nog niet eerder beschreven had in het haalbaarheidsonderzoek. Hier staat tegenover dat ik oprecht geïnteresseerd was in het onderwerp en daarom meer uit de opdracht heb kunnen halen. Hopelijk is deze interesse terug te lezen in het eindresultaat.

...11.sınıf Türk Edebiyatı Ders Notları YENİLEŞME DÖNEMİ www.edebiyatogretmeni.net Osmanlı Devleti'ndeki yenileşme hareketleri 17. yüzyılın sonundaki Karlofça Antlaşması (1699) ile başlamıştır. Osmanlı İmparatorluğu, 17. yüzyıla dek dünyanın büyük devletlerinden biriydi. Ancak bu yüzyılın sonlarında ülke küçülmeye başladı. Karlofça antlaşmasıyla başlayan toprak kaybı, devlet adamlarını derin derin düşünmeye yöneltti. Toprak kayıplarının nedeni ordunun savaş alanlarında yenilmesiydi. Bu tespit, olgunun bir yüzünü, askerî yönünü dışa vuruyordu. Oysa sadece askeri örgütler değil devletin çeşitli kurumlan çağın ihtiyaçlarını karşılamaktan uzaklaşmıştı. Ancak bunu görmek isteyenlerin sayısı son derece azdı. O nedenle Osmanlı İmparatorluğundaki çağdaşlaşma hareketi askerî alanda başlatıldı. Amaç imparatorluğu eski gücüne kavuşturmaktı. Tanzimat devrine gelinceye kadar ülkede bazı yenilik hareketlerine girişildi. Ancak bunlar planlı programlı çalışmalar olmadığı için, sadece yeniliği başlatan devlet adamının yaşamıyla özdeşleşti. Yenilikçi kişinin ölümü ile yenilikler de ortada kaldı. Paris ve Londra elçiliklerinde bulunmuş olan Hariciye Nazırı Mustafa Reşit Paşa, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nda Tanzimat Dönemi olarak tarihe geçecek bir olayı başlatmıştır. 3 Kasım 1839'da Gülhane Hatt-ı Hümayunu adı verilen bir belgeyi devlet ileri gelenlerinin, yabancı elçilerin, halkın önünde okumuştur. "Tanzimat ", düzenlemeler demektir. Her alanda düzenlemeler yapılacağının duyurulduğu bu...
