...1. The initial perception that Turner had about Cardullo is that he was smart, friendly and a charismatic personality. Hence Turner anticipated that he would be given a free hand in his marketing activities, thereby leading way to become the president within two years. With this initial perception in mind, Turner decided to take up this challenging role which had resulted otherwise as time progressed. Description: Turner initially had a wrong perception about Cardullo whom he thought would be very helpful and supporting. It was due to the confidence given to Turner by Cardullo in the new job and opportunities that propelled Turner to take up this job in Industrial Marketing which has not as lucrative as his earlier job in customer sales. The error in perception was to due to false commitments and offers made by Cardullo to Turner which he never completed and hence made Turner to think and regret his decision to join this organization. Solution: The solution to the above problem would be to provide clear job responsibilities to the employees as soon as the employee joins the organization and clearly state the expectation of the company from him. When the communication process is not clear and transparent; conflicts occur and leads to inefficiency in the work process which is unhealthy from the organization’s view point. 2.

...Nat Turner was a very intelligent man based upon his confession. He claimed to have been born with a special ability given to him by the Lord to know of events from before his birth. He also believed that he was being used by the Lord for a greater purpose in his life. When he could have escaped, he felt compelled by the Spirit to return to his master and continue his work there. Upon reading the first couple of pages in his confession, Nat Turner seemed like a very respectful and innocent man. What was surprising was the lack of remorse or fear in his confession about the things he had witnessed and participated in. It felt as though he was telling a made up horror story of men, women and children getting brutally murdered in their sleep. His report of killing his master and the family is told very nonchalantly but with great detail. In the beginning of the confession when he was explaining the meeting he had to come up with the plan, he had claimed that he had no real complaint against how his master treated him. He also said his master was kind and placed great trust (confidence) in him. Despite his seemingly positive feelings towards his master, he still plotted and carried out the murder of him and his entire family. Nat gave his master a blow to the head that was not strong enough to kill so Will killed him after he woke up from the violent blow. The master’s wife was then killed in the same bed. It was disturbing reading how they had forgotten the infant that was sleeping...

...Turner and the Sublime In Romantic art, nature—with its uncontrollable power, unpredictability, and potential for cataclysmic extremes—offered an alternative to the ordered world of Enlightenment thought. The violent and terrifying images of nature conjured by Romantic artists recalled the eighteenth-century aesthetic of the Sublime. An artist that stood out among the many individuals of this time was Joseph Mallord William Turner. Turner was one of the most influential landscape painters in England. His style consisted of oil painting, watercolour, and etching. Through his career he went through different ways of expressing his talent when painting. At the beginning of his career, his work consisted of solid objects and detail but as time moved forward his focus turned towards accentuating color and light. Fascinated with natural and atmospheric elements, Turner stood out as an early-impressionist for he violated the rules of academic painting, and for this was highly criticized by his fellow contemporaries. Despite the critics, Turner never ceased to provoke through these turbulent, chaotic forces that haunted his paintings. J.M.W. Turner, born in 1775, came from a working-class family. His father, William Turner, was a barber and wigmaker while his mother, Mary Marshall, came from a family of butchers. Turner's mother was mentally unbalanced, and her instability was aggravated by the fatal illness of Turner's younger sister. As a result, Turner was sent to stay with an...

...Turner chptr 2 Turner's rituals are the role played by liminality, structure, and communitas. Ritual serves, for Turner, the function of balancing structure and communitas. The individuals participating in the rituals are, temporarily, outside of the normal social structure, and thus, are in a liminal state. The initiate is first stripped of the social status that he or she possessed before the ritual, inducted into the liminal period of transition, and finally given his or her new status and reassimilated into society. He focuses entirely on the middle stage of rites of passage—the transitional or liminal stage. He notes, “The subject of passage ritual is, in the liminal period, structurally, if not physically, ‘invisible’”. That is, the status of liminal individuals is socially and structurally ambiguous. He develops this idea further in a concise definition of liminality that will inform his future writings: “Liminality may perhaps be regarded as the Nay to all positive structural assertions, but as in some sense the source of them all, and, more than that, as a realm of pure possibility whence novel configurations of ideas and relations may arise”. Turner also points out, that liminal individuals are polluting, and thus dangerous, to those who have not gone through the liminal period. In addition, liminal individuals have nothing: “no status, insignia, secular clothing, rank, kinship position, nothing to demarcate them structurally from their fellows”. The group of liminal...

...The role of revolution in enhancing freedom for African-American community cannot be disregarded. In this same way, the role of significant revolutionaries to the attainment of freedom is equally important. One of the most significant characters was Nat Turner who life and activities are clearly reconstructed in Stephen Oates’ the Fires of Jubilee. Ideally, it is reasonable to assume that prior to many of the events leading to the civil war, the white and black children were living peacefully with each other. But of more importance however, is the role that religion played in enhancing the events as explained in the Fires of Jubilee. To understand the issue further, the essay’s focus hopes to analyze the various aspect of the book; the Fires of Jubilee. Ideally, the author argues that regarding Nat Turner’s rebellion, oppression is an equally similar occurrence to violence and whose price is like a double-edged sword. This means that the rebellion...

...Turner, the Thesis, and Tracking history: Frederick Jackson Turner’s journey to the thesis and his contribution to the way we study history today History Today 290 Megan Houck Professor Le Bar May 7, 2014 Over 120 years ago, Frederick Jackson Turner spoke in Chicago about his theory of the American West. This Statement made a bold case that the closing of the westward expansion was the end to a glorious and influential chapter in the history of the nation. Throughout the decades there is one thing for certain, the Frontier thesis has just as much impact today as when produced. It may be studied today for its purposefulness as well as its theories, but his work ultimately inspires one to open their mind for critique, discussion, and praise. He believed that westering American individuality helped assure our democracy. Turner has many influences during his career like his father, teachers, students, and other historians. He continued to be an avid student as well, always reading and educating himself. The center of his thesis was to state that the American character, including such traits as equality and acquisitiveness, and the “American character” derived from the frontier experience. His historical value was in understanding America’s inner workings. Looking at all aspects of the American life, their past, where their future was heading, their economic, political, and social belongings. It was this forward thinking that elevated Turner’s status in his...

...In the August of 1831, Nathaniel “Nat” Turner led one of the only effective and sustained slave rebellions in U.S. history which left dozens, including young children, dead. Turner moved through the county, accompanied by his group of rebels. They went through houses, recruiting followers and killing whites. Nat Turner had gathered approximately 75 men, including five free black men, by the time the white population of Southampton had become aware of the insurrection. Despite the fact his insurgency was crushed, it created a wave of fear through the South and triggered a new surge of tyrannical legislation which forbade the movement, education, and assembly of slaves. It stiffened pro-slavery, anti-abolitionist convictions which continued in the district until the American Civil War in 1861. Historian Eric...

...Turner was an Englishman born on the 23rd of April, 1775 in London, England. Like Friedrich, Tuner painted with feelings and emotion. In fact, Turner expressed moods in his paintings of landscapes, seascapes, sunrises, and sunsets. “My business is to paint what I see, not what I know is there.” (Joseph Mallord William Turner). Turner would not just paint the picture he saw, he would illustrate the mood the picture brought to him. By this quote, it is plausible that Turner never painted anything that did not give him feeling or emotion. Adding to Turner’s many sceneries, he as well had other styles and mediums he executed on his work. Turner also manufactured other styles such as drawings, and other mediums such as watercolors. “Airy visions, painted with tinted steam,” (John Constable). is how Romantic painter, John Constable, portrayed Turner’s paintings. Turner most likely did not produce the average paintings people were most accustomed to. With his broad imagination, Turner would implement his different mediums and moods to generate every piece to be incompatible with others of that...

This piece examines how life was first created here in America, as well as how the first frontier set the stage for numerous civilization advancements that would occur in the near future.
