Hermitage Museum 2.0
Ever since Peter the Great, it was Russian policy to become a major European power. He lead a cultural revolution with an aim to transform the traditional and medieval social and political system into a modern society. In 1764, two years after Catherine the Great on the throne, She brought out Gotzkowski’s collection of 225 paintings, mainly Dutch and Flemish paintings.

Caravaggio , his life, his style, his first masterpiece
Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses criticizing the Catholic Church in 1517, sparking the Protestant Reformation.

Caravaggio's temper led to a murder in 1606 and he fled Rome, producing some of his last works while in exile asking for mercy, before dying in 1610 at age 38.

The Great Gastby.pptx
F. Scott Fitzgerald was an American novelist and short story writer. Some of his most famous works include The Great Gatsby (1925), The Beautiful and Damned (1922), and The Side of Paradise (1920). The Great Gatsby follows narrator Nick Carraway and his neighbor, Jay Gatsby, a mysterious millionaire obsessed with his former lover Daisy Buchanan. The novel depicts the social scene of the 1920s American East Coast elite through its portrayal of lavish parties and divisions between new and old money. Characters like the brutish Tom Buchanan and idealistic Jay Gatsby represent these social dichotomies of the time period.
Criticism.pptx
The document summarizes key aspects of New Criticism as proposed by John Crowe Ransom in the early 20th century. Ransom advocated for literary criticism to focus on the aesthetic appreciation and understanding of texts, rather than historical scholarship or moral interpretations. He urged critics to exclude personal impressions, synopses, historical context, and linguistic analysis, and to concentrate solely on close readings and analyses of literary elements within texts. The movement gained prominence from the 1940s-1960s and focused attention solely on the text, before other theories broadened literary analysis to include outside contexts.
