A Trip to the Metropolitan Museum
The visit is blood-curdling and gives a fantastic experience
Metropolitan Museum of Art can easily fit among the famous legendary European museums
The museum is iconic Beaux-Arts façade
Visiting Metropolitan Museum of Art has left me recalling of that blood-curdling and fantastic experience. Being one of the world’s premier cultural institutions and houses, it significantly encompasses nearly everything from the ancient classics to the modern masters. With its iconic Beaux-Arts façade, Metropolitan Museum of Art can easily fit among the famous legendary European museums. Although it is distinctly American and New York experience, it is a melting pot of the spectacular art and the artifacts from across time and the world. Interestingly, the museum is fondly referred to as the Met and visitors can travel from as far as Paleolithic Egypt to the Neolithic Near East to experience their culture in the form of artifacts in the museum.
What I realized is that Met features a comprehensive collection of calligraphy, art and even ritual objects from Nepal, China, and Tibet. I was further fascinated by the artifact of Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus and ignited my curiosity, and I immediately yearned to know its origin and history of this magnificent artifact (Baetjer, 1999).

Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus
Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus is a significant marble of Early Christian Sarcophagus
used for the burial of Junius Bassus
the sarcophagus was placed in the Old St. Peter’s Basilica inside the Vatican
Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus is a significant marble of Early Christian Sarcophagus that was used for the burial of Junius Bassus, who is known to have died in 359. Importantly, it has then been described as the single most famous piece of early Christian relief sculpture. Originally, the sarcophagus was placed in the Old St. Peter’s Basilica inside the Vatican. Moreover, is one of the oldest surviving high-status sarcophagi with clear and elaborate carvings of Christian themes with complicated iconographic plans that embrace both the old and new testaments.

Junius Bassus
Junius Bassus was a significant figure and a senator
headed the government capital as the Praefectus Urbi
Bassus converted to Christianity shortly at the verge of his death
Junius Bassus was a significant figure and a senator who was the head of the government capital as the Praefectus Urbi at the time of his death in 359 when he was 42 years. Just as the artifact of sarcophagus depicts, Bassus converted to Christianity shortly at the verge of his death (Stokstad, 2010).
*
Style and art of sarcophagus
the workmanship and cooperation were of the highest quality
the sculpture shows fewer features of the late antique style of sculpture
the sculpture ignores practically all the rules obeyed by official artifacts
reflects a blending of the late Hellenic style with the contemporary Roman and Ital.

Introduction to art and art history
Prehistoric Art
Mesoponamian art
Evolution and Development of Arts & Architecture (as one of the intrinsic parts of Civilization)in Europe mainly in Greece and Rome occupy a significant position in the history of Human Civilization.
The culture of Art & Architecture was started in Greece in 450 B.C. In case of Romanian Arts and Architecture it was around 1st century BC the same was got developed and mostly inspired by Greek civilization.
The Art & Architecture in ancient Greece all shared the same general form: Rows of columns supporting a horizontal entablature ( a kind of decorative molding) and a triangular roof. At each end of the roof, the above entablature, was a triangle space known as the pediment, into which sculptors squeezed elaborate scenes. In case of Rome, the Art & Architecture includes painting, sculptures, mosaic works etc. Sculpture was perhaps considered as the highest form of art in Rome.

How nondirective therapy directs: The power of empathy in the context

(Received 26 November 2011; final version received 16 May 2012)
This paper explains how acceptance and empathy are vehicles for psychothe-
rapeutic change by showing how these factors function in nondirective client-
centered therapy. The paper argues that because the nondirective client-centered
therapist’s unconditional positive regard may conflict with the client’s conditional
self-regard, the therapy cultivates a novel restructuring of the client’s narrative.
By revealing how positive therapeutic change can result from the interplay of
unconditional positive regard and empathy, the article explains the effectiveness
of classical client-centered therapy in particular and accounts at least in part for
the effectiveness of other therapies that stress the healing properties of the
psychotherapeutic relationship.

1. Is it important the hospital to have a licensure to ensure that the licensees the minimal degree of competency necessary to ensure that public health,. safety, and the welfare are protected. Typically, they are granted at the state level, if the individual works in multiple jurisdictions, then they must licensed in each jurisdiction. Which the government authorize for grants permission to an individual practitioner or health care organizations to operate or to engage in an occupation or profession. Lincensure regulations are generally established to ensure that an organization or individuals is usually granted after some form of examination or proof of education and may be renewed periodically through payment of a fee and or proof of continuing education or professional competence. Organizational licensure is granted following an on site inspection to determine if minimum health and safety standards have been met. Maintenance of licensure is an on going requirement for the health care organization to operate and care for patients. Requirements needed to deliver when comes to health care to maintaining the licensure. Maintain the quality as new technology, financial resources, improve quality such to reduce waiting time, and implementing process to reduce the rate post operative infections.Ensure public safety the hospital is responsible the patients will not be harmed, responsibility to comply with laws and regulations related to public safety, and reduce staff injury within the organizations. When a hospital don't have a licensure some of them when dont follow rules such malpractice insurers, when don't comply with Joint Commission could seem poor management.
2. The general public does not have adequate information to judge provider qualifications or competence; thus, professional licensure laws are enacted to assure the public that practitioners have met the qualifications and minimum competencies required for practice. Licensure by a governmental agency signifies that the individual has met the minimal degree of competency and proficiency needed to ensure the safety and well-being of the consumer, clients or population being served. Licensure is necessary when the regulated activities are complex and require specialized knowledge and skill and independent decision making. The licensure process determines if the applicant has the necessary skills to safely perform a specified scope of practice by predetermining the criteria needed and evaluating licensure applicants to determine if they meet the criteria. Typically, licensure requirements include some combination of education, training and examination to demonstrate competency. Licensure requirements also involve continuing education, training, and, for some, periodic re-examination. If a hospital did not have this licensure there would be chaos. Readmission rates would be high, there would be no set standards of practice, no protocols or rules to follow and there would be confusion wit.

1. INTRODUCTION
In recent years, energy harvesting from ambient vibration [I and human motion [2] has received both considerable industrial and academic interest due to advances in micro-electronic technology leading to an increased computation efficiency and reduced power consumption of wireless sensors and portable electronic devices. In addition to environmental benefits associated with limiting the disposal of traditional batteries, energy harvesting technologies [3] provide a great promising of autonomous and self-powered electronic devices for safety monitoring, structure-embedded diagnosis and medical implants. The narrowband issues of linear resonant piezoelectric energy harvesters have motivated several research groups to develop the nonlinear monostable [4], bistable [5] and tristable [6] approaches to enhance frequency bandwidth and output power. The theoretical analysis and experimental verification of those nonlinear energy harvesters have been extensively investigated under harmonic and stochastic excitations [7-9]. For the realistic excitation, Green [2] numerically analyzed the efficiency of nonlinear energy harvesting from human motion and Cao [10] applied the time-varying potential bistable energy harvester to human motion to demonstrate its better performance than the linear one. However, tristable energy harvesting performance has not yet been evaluated under realistic excitations induced by human motions. Therefore, the paper employs tristable magnetic coupled piezoelectric cantilever to harvest energy from human walking and running. Based on the characteristics of human motion, theoretical model of nonlinear tristable energy harvester with time-varying potential energy function is established. And experiment results show that the tristable energy harvester exhibits better performance than the linear one when applied to harvesting energy from human walking and running.
2. ELEC TROMECHANICAL MODEL
The magnetic coupled piezoelectric energy harvester with external magnets is illustrated in Fig.1 (a). The configuration consists of a stainless steel substrate, two symmetric PZT-51 piezoelectric layers at the root, tip magnet attachments and two external magnets.
Tristable energy harvester can be obtained by adjusting the parameters h, d and a.When harvester is applied to harvesting energy from human motion , the lower limb swing motion will drive the cantilever to swing a certain angle (shown in Fig.1 (b) which results in a time-varying potential energy function due of the beam. On these conditions, the electromechanical model of the nonlinear piezoelectric energy harvesters with time-varying potential energy function can be given by the following equation:
Where m is the equivalent mass and c is the equivalent damping. 0 is the equivalent electromechanical coupling coefficient, Cp is the equivalent capacitance of the piezoelectric materials, R is the load resistance, v(t) is the voltage across the electrical load, x.
1. INTRODUCTIONThe rapid of economic growth in China, is a fou.docxambersalomon88660
1. INTRODUCTION
The rapid of economic growth in China, is a foundation of urban expansion, associated with the rise in migrants in urban areas. According to data from Statistics Bureau in China, the urban proportion of the total populations reached 45.7% in 2008 compared to 17.9% in 1978, and is expected to reach 50% by 2020. The presence of a large number of rural labor force in the city, tend to look for adequate and affordable housing, which generate a peculiar outcome in most Chinese cities, urban villages. Urban villages, or Chengzhongcun in Chinese, they mean that the villages in the middle of the city, interact as urban expansion surrounded them (Chung, 2009).
According to land management law in China, the ownership of urban land is state, and the ownership of rural land is collective-owned the village. Besides, land belonging to the rural collectives can only used to solely agricultural and not allowed to sell in the land market. The earliest urban village emerged in China is due to the 1978 Economic Reforms. In order to fulfill the investment and development, the government tends to expropriated farmland in rural villages for urban use because of the limit of capital and time-consuming. Therefore, the settlement villages are been survived while their surrounding environment dramatically development, graduate leading to the formation of urban villages (Hao, et al, 2011).
On the other hand, rural migrants have been flooding into cities because of the demand of cheap labour force in urban areas and the states started to relax restrictions on rural-urban migration after Reforms, which generate great pressure on demand of housing. Generally, China's rental market can be segmented into three kinds: government provided credit houses; commercial residential building in the three level market; and renting houses in “villages” (Hang and Iseman, 2009). However, the social housing for low-income households provided by government are excluded them because of the “Hukou” system, which is the household registration system to different urban and rural population. During the city transformation in China, the government ignored the two weakest groups: villagers who do not have lands and workers from village. It is undeniable that urban villages provide a positive environment for slowing down the unemployment problems of the villagers and the housing problems of the latter (Hao, 2012).
Meanwhile, due to the weak government jurisdiction in urban villages, landlords find out this is a new way to substantially maximize income by providing low-rent accommodation to rural migrants. In the process of farmland requisition, the state does not provide the landlords any employment opportunities after they losing their basis of livelihood, which causes them to have no competitive power in the labour market in the city. The huge profits from house renting business enable them to gain considerable revenue and make a new livelihood. In addiction, some of urban vi.

Part I: Health Care Finance
Overview
CHAPTER 2: FOUR THINGS THE HEALTH
CARE MANAGER NEEDS TO KNOW
ABOUT FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS
Four Segments that Make a Financial
Management System Work
• Original Records — Provide evidence that
some event has occurred.
• The Information System — Gathers this
evidence.
• The Accounting System — Records the
evidence.
• The Reporting System — Produces reports of
the effects.
Four Segments That Make a Financial
System Work
• The healthcare manager needs to know that
these separate elements exist and that they
work together for an end result.
Structure of the Information System
• Identify the inputs
• Identify the outputs
• Examine the Figure 2-1 diagram in the chapter
Function of Flow Sheets
• Flow sheets illustrate the flow of activities that
capture information.
Flow Sheets are Useful Because
• They picture who is responsible for what piece
of information as it enters the system
• Examine the two examples of patient
information flows in the chapter
Figure 2-2: Flowsheets
Figure 2-3: Flowsheets
The Chart of Accounts
• Outlines the elements of your company in an
organized manner.
• Maps out account titles with a method of
numeric coding.
• Is designed to compile financial data in an
uniform manner that can be decoded by the
user.
The Chart of Accounts
• Every organization has differences in its Chart
of Accounts that expresses the unique
differences in its own organizational structure.
• Examine the three examples of different Chart
of Accounts formats in Exhibits 2-1, 2-2 and 2-
3.
Exhibit 2–1 Chart of Accounts, Format I
Exhibit 2–2 Chart of Accounts, Format II
Exhibit 2–3 Chart of Accounts, Format III
Basic System Elements: Books and
Records
• Capture transactions
• Figures 2-4 and 2-5 illustrate this concept.
Books and Records: The Sequence Is…
• Initial transaction to subsidiary journal to
general ledger;
• Review, adjust, balance through the trial
balance;
• Create reports (financial statements)
The Annual Management Cycle
• Affects the type and status of information the
manager uses
The Annual Management Cycle
• The type and status of information used by the
manager includes:
• Daily and Weekly Reports — Generally contain
raw data
• Quarterly Reports and Statistics — Generally
have been verified, adjusted and balanced. Called
“interim” reports; often used as milestones by
managers.
• Annual Year End Reports — Generally.

In a 2 page APA formatted paper with an additional reference page (template here), analyze the strategic use of sensory visuals:
1. Analyze the use of color; address how it attracts the eye of the targeted audience. How might the targeted audience interpret the color and emotionally respond?
2. Analyze the use of lines; address how it directs the eyes of the viewers. Which types of lines are used? How might the targeted audience interpret the line usage and emotionally respond?
3. Analyze the use of contrast and balance; address how it attracts the eye of the targeted audience. How might the targeted audience emotionally respond to the visual balance and contrast? What if the contrast and balance elements were not there or were different? How would that change the viewer response?
Support the items above by including relevant quotes and paraphrases from academic/scholarly sources.
Be sure to clearly address how these four visual sensory elements attract the eyes of a specific target audience more readily than other audiences. For a thorough analysis, always consider the effect on viewers if these four visuals were used differently or not used at all.

1. If I were to create an SEL program, I would focus on self-awar.docxambersalomon88660
1. If I were to create an SEL program, I would focus on: self-awareness, relationship skills and decision-making. I would focus on these skills and values because they are integral in developing emotional intelligence. Self-awareness could be instilled through different activities where a person takes different tests and conducts activities to learn more about their own emotions. By understanding and managing their emotions, they can be more aware to how they act. Additionally, relationship skills can be built through participating in different group activities in which they must work together to solve a problem. These group activities will also integrate decision-making, where participants will learn how to respectfully voice opinions and listen to those of others. At the end of the program, there will be a final group activity which integrates the three core skills, and one must display self-awareness, relationship skills and decision-making to complete the activity.
2. This program would be helpful in teaching factors of emotional intelligence, but it would not teach every important aspect. The first strength of this program would be that it teaches self-awareness before relationship skills, because knowing how to manage and process self-emotions is extremely important when working in a team. Additionally, a strength would be that it is an activity-based program, which will keep kids entertained and learning at the same time. The limitation of this program is that it cannot teach everything about social emotional learning such as social awareness or stress management, however it will be a good start in SEL.
1. The three skills that I would focus on if I were to create an SEL program would be Self-Management, Social Awareness, Responsible Decision Making. These skills are the most essential because self-management is pretty much controlled self-awareness, social awareness is critical to being successful with the other skills, and responsible decision making is critical to any sort of personal and relationship success. I plan on instilling these skills by integrating different forms of activities and exams to ensure that these skills are achieved for their intended purposes. For social awareness I would place people into groups who all have different activities and emotions going on and then quiz them in the end. Self-management can be instilled by keeping tallies of individual outbursts when one gets upset and even putting them in upsetting situations and seeing how the handle them. Additionally, responsible decision making can be more activity and an exam where different situations happen and individuals are rated on how they react to them.
2. The strengths of my program are that they are extremely interactive and also give numerical results. With the combination of interactive activities with other people, real life testing scenarios, and exams it is easy to see the results of individuals to see where they are both st.

1. I think that the top three management positions in a health pla.docxambersalomon88660
1. I think that the top three management positions in a health plan are Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Hospital Administrator and Chief of Nurses. The reason they rank over the rest is because their positions are compelling and crucial in the healthcare. The CEO position is the person who is responsible of management, organizing operations, planning, budgeting, negotiating contracts, studying financial reports. They are the ones in charge of the entire organization and it is imperative that they ensure that everything runs professionally and effectively. Then the Hospital Administrator position is the person responsible of making sure they are working promptly and effectively to generate and manage the budget, quality assurance policies and the hiring of physicians. Their job is also to be responsible in making sure they are up to date with all government regulations and law compliance and by not doing so it can cost them their job and cause fines to their organization. Last is the Chief of Nursing position is the person who is responsible of the overseeing of the nursing staff, they see the department’s budget, they must report to high level staff-members like the CEO, they maintain a high standard of care, review patients’ data and medical records to professionally relate and interact with physicians, patients and family members. You can tell by reading the responsibilities of these positions you realize how essential they are to the health plan and how every responsibility is meticulous to each position. Even though I picked these 3 as the top management position I still feel that all positions hold an important part in the health plan.
2. Healthcare industry offers many different opportunities in its field, working in this industry you have many choices where to choose from like for instance become a secretary to being an analyst or end up being a doctor. There is room to explore different careers and work closely with a variety of professionals. In this growing market the top three careers that would be more in demand would be Nurses, Physicians and Physical Therapists. There is a vast list of opportunities in health care that if you work with effort you will. As we all know nurses are every where and at all times even if the doctor's are not present. They make home visits to check on patient's health and keeping track of their health. Going through nursing is not a piece of cake there is a lot to be learn physically, emotionally and mentally. Becoming a physician is becoming less popular since there are so many other choices out there people see that becoming a physician is a lot of hassle and instead become something else. This career choice will be need in the next few years. Physical Therapy is my third option, with all this baby boomer community the demand for doctor's specially therapist will increase for at least 20% in the next few years. This generation of elderly community is more aware of their health and will seek more tre.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

A Trip to the Metropolitan Museum
The visit is blood-curdling and gives a fantastic experience
Metropolitan Museum of Art can easily fit among the famous
legendary European museums
The museum is iconic Beaux-Arts façade
Visiting Metropolitan Museum of Art has left me recalling of
that blood-curdling and fantastic experience. Being one of the
world’s premier cultural institutions and houses, it significantly
encompasses nearly everything from the ancient classics to the
modern masters. With its iconic Beaux-Arts façade,
Metropolitan Museum of Art can easily fit among the famous
legendary European museums. Although it is distinctly
American and New York experience, it is a melting pot of the
spectacular art and the artifacts from across time and the world.
Interestingly, the museum is fondly referred to as the Met and
visitors can travel from as far as Paleolithic Egypt to the
Neolithic Near East to experience their culture in the form of
artifacts in the museum.
What I realized is that Met features a comprehensive collection
of calligraphy, art and even ritual objects from Nepal, China,
and Tibet. I was further fascinated by the artifact of
Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus and ignited my curiosity, and I
immediately yearned to know its origin and history of this
magnificent artifact (Baetjer, 1999).

Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus
Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus is a significant marble of Early
Christian Sarcophagus
used for the burial of Junius Bassus
the sarcophagus was placed in the Old St. Peter’s Basilica
inside the Vatican
Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus is a significant marble of Early
Christian Sarcophagus that was used for the burial of Junius
Bassus, who is known to have died in 359. Importantly, it has
then been described as the single most famous piece of early
Christian relief sculpture. Originally, the sarcophagus was
placed in the Old St. Peter’s Basilica inside the Vatican.
Moreover, is one of the oldest surviving high-status sarcophagi
with clear and elaborate carvings of Christian themes with
complicated iconographic plans that embrace both the old and
new testaments.

Junius Bassus
Junius Bassus was a significant figure and a senator
headed the government capital as the Praefectus Urbi
Bassus converted to Christianity shortly at the verge of his
death
Junius Bassus was a significant figure and a senator who was
the head of the government capital as the Praefectus Urbi at the
time of his death in 359 when he was 42 years. Just as the
3. artifact of sarcophagus depicts, Bassus converted to Christianity
shortly at the verge of his death (Stokstad, 2010).

Style and art of sarcophagus
the workmanship and cooperation were of the highest quality
the sculpture shows fewer features of the late antique style of
sculpture
the sculpture ignores practically all the rules obeyed by official
artifacts
reflects a blending of the late Hellenic style with the
contemporary Roman and Italian creativity
scenes in the artifact are three dimensional

The Roman arch was significantly the foundation of Rome’s
architectural mastery
It led to a massive expanse of building projects across the
ancient world
It allowed the Romans to make bigger buildings, better
aqueducts and longer roads
The Roman arch was significantly the foundation of Rome’s
architectural mastery and particularly a massive expanse of
building projects across the ancient world. This way, it allowed
Romans to make bigger buildings, better aqueducts and longer
roads. In effect, the Roman arch has been termed as the ancestor
of modern architecture.

Romanesque Art: Art and Architecture
Romanesque Art: Art and Architecture
William Evans
Post University
27 February 2016
Brief appraisal
The first movement of the medieval art is the Romanesque art
which includes various derivations of Roman architecture to the
fall of Rome until it became Gothic art in the 12th century
(Khanacademy, 2016). The term Romanesque Art refers to the
art that came from Rome (Durham World Heritage Site, 2016).
The Romanesque art term refers to the art found in the France,
Italy, Germany and Spain in the era of 1000-1200 AD. This art
reflects massiveness, and this also mirrors the social
sustainability of the new millennium and emerging confidence
of Church. The most of the art, presently, is remembered
through churches which are still the symbol of this art. There is
also a blend of religious art in the Romanesque art because it
was considered as the rivaling counterpart of Islam at that time
5. and the very aim of the church was to spread the churches
throughout the Europe (Visual-arts-cork, 2015). This art typifies
the stained glass, metalwork, decorative religious work, and
sculptures. In the Romanesque art, arches are the most
prominent aspect as the title of this paper suggests. The
Romanesque art influenced the Europe in the 1000, and the
spread of Christianity was one of the propagating factors of this
art. The important features of the art include sculpture,
paintings, and decorative arts. The Romanesque art entangled
the Norman art and Christianity as the sculptures represent
Nordic fantasies as well as biblical illustrations in the form of
paintings.
Personal reaction
Romanesque art and its ruins are the reflections of that era. The
construction also reflects the social constructs and stratification
of that time that is represented from the massive lookouts of the
buildings, pillars, paintings, sculptures and illustrations. An art,
encapsulated in the form of ruins, are the rich source of history.
They provide an alternative review of the history, as they are
the most authentic source of the social constructs and
stratification of that time as compared to what that the
historians wrote. I was amazed at the Romanesque art, and it
kept me mesmerized for some time, and it made me feel like I
had been living in that era. This was the most thrilling feeling
that I realized while delving into this topic. Even if the time of
that era would be ordinary for the people of that era, however,
the feeling of going to that era and seeing things of that era
from the present time makes me feels like a time machine thing
to me. The more I researched, the more I felt deprived of
knowledge and the more I tried to look into this art. Reflection
There were numerous surprises in the course, and some of were
unraveled while doing this project. I would like to present those
are relevant to this paper. First I was mesmerized by the
etymological connection between the word ‘arch' and
‘architecture', and I was impressed so much that I made it the
6. title of my this oeuvre. Further, delving into Romanesque Art
created a romantic sense of gratification and seductiveness in
me, as I was impressed with the structures of the buildings and
the beauty these constructs of art represents.
I did a brief study of the design and came to know how the
structures and buildings sought sustainability through the
Romanesque Art by shifting from the wooden structures to the
stone structures. The earlier structures in this art were massive
and blunt; however, the beauty evolved and with the passage of
time and practice, this became more leaner, refined and
beautiful.

Introduction
The Greek culture included architectural aspects that are widely
used today in modern architecture.
Most of the ancient Greek architecture consists of temples,
open-air theaters, and sculptures
The Greeks focused their attention on the building of columns.
The structures are unique as they are distinguished by structures
and decoration and stand on high grounds for good visibility.
The Greek culture did involve not only educational, political
and philosophical aspects but also included architectural aspects
that are widely used today in modern architecture. Most of the
ancient Greek architecture consists of temples, open-air
theaters, and sculptures and are found all over the country in
ruins but substantially intact (Jenkins, 2006). As opposed to the
Romans, the Greeks focused their attention on the building of
columns. The structures are unique as they are distinguished by
structures and decoration and stand on high grounds for good
visibility. Therefore, the architectures had to be massive and
8. extremely long.

Greeks art history
The Greeks used load-bearing construction to bear the weight of
the roofs as the post-and-lintel construction sued horizontal
beams
The different styles of the Greek architecture included the Doric
style that was more masculine, the ionic style that was feminine
and the Corinthian order.
One example of Greek architecture is the first temple if Hera at
Paestum in Italy.
The Greeks used load-bearing construction to bear the weight of
the roofs as the post-and-lintel construction sued horizontal
beams that were supported by vertical columns that consisted of
drums. The different styles of the Greek architecture included
the Doric style that was more masculine, the ionic style that was
feminine and the Corinthian order. The Doric style was more
plain and blocky while the ionic style had more intricate details
and was easily recognizable by its scroll capital. On the other
hand, the Corinthian style had an embellished capital with
elegant acanthus leaves. One example of Greek architecture is
the first temple if Hera at Paestum in Italy.

9. Greeks art history
The Capital building in America employs the Corinthian
architecture.
The Greek architecture adapted the stone architecture from the
Egyptians
Petrification began to be used as wooden structures were
replaced with stone and limestone was used to build the pillars
and walls.
Terracotta was used for roof tiles while marble was simply for
decoration.
The Capital building in America employs the Corinthian
architecture as seen by its embellished capitals while the Justice
Hall uses the Doric architecture (Wesley, 2012). The Greek
architecture adapted the stone architecture from the Egyptians
that paved way for their monumental architectures and
sculptures. Petrification began to be used as wooden structures
were replaced with stone and limestone was used to build the
pillars and walls. On the other hand, terracotta was used for
roof tiles while marble was simply for decoration.

10. Modern and Greek Architecture
Greek architecture has influenced modern architecture as seen
in modern courthouses, city halls, and residences.
The current American architecture that employs the Greek
architecture builds a story of its building and development.
The stories of these structures go back to the early centuries and
have almost the story (Jenkins, 2006).
It is clear and evident that the Greek architecture has influenced
modern architecture as seen in modern courthouses, city halls,
and residences. The current American architecture that employs
the Greek architecture builds a story of its building and
development. The stories of these structures go back to the early
centuries and have almost the story (Jenkins, 2006). Similarly,
perhaps the most commonly used to explain historical stories
and beliefs are sculptures such. Battles and gods were
sculptured to explain what happened in ancient Greece and what
they believe as well.

Modern and Greek Architecture
An example is the sculptor of the dying warrior of the temple of
Aphaia, which influences modern day sculpturing (Jenkins,
2006).
Arches use the strong Greek architecture to offer strong support
to bridges as aqueducts bring water to areas in need.
However, the Greek’s aqueducts had underground tunnels and
11. galleries as opposed to the current aqueducts that adopted the
Roman architecture.

architecture of arches that they joined to form the aqueducts

Modern and Greek Architecture
The most notable difference between modern architecture and
the Greek architecture is the technologies used during
construction.
The area of Fayetteville in North Carolina gives a good
example of the market house which was built due to the
commercial activities of the town in 1789.
The architecture is important due to its logic and order,
inventions, influence, and exquisite sculpture
12. The most notable difference between modern architecture and
the Greek architecture is the technologies used during
construction. The Greeks built structures that were way beyond
advancement at their time (Wesley, 2012). The area of
Fayetteville in Northern California gives a good example of the
market house which was built due to the commercial activities
of the town in 1789. The market house replaced the old
structured statehouse that was destroyed by the great fire in
1831 (Use, 1982). The architecture is important due to its logic
and order, inventions, influence, and exquisite sculpture

Modern and Greek Architecture
The building employs both the Greek gothic revival and the
modern classical details.
The Greek architecture is employed and seen in the Doric
columns and the arches.
A block of stone was carved and molded to form the base of the
structure that supported the beams and the roof as the upper
blocks were truncated to form arches.
The exterior architrave is Doric as shown by its columns.
Most of the modern designs base their architectures on the
designs of the Greek template of the base, capital, shaft as
vertical bands are used to draw a viewer’s eye upwards. The
building employs both the Greek gothic revival and the modern
13. classical details. The Greek architecture is employed and seen
in the Doric columns and the arches. A block of stone was
carved and molded to form the base of the structure that
supported the beams and the roof as the upper blocks were
truncated to form arches. This is similar to the western entrance
of the cella of the Parthenon in ancient Greece that was a
temple. From a closer look, the exterior architrave is Doric as
shown by its columns. However, in this case, the interior area is
ionic by its continuous frieze of a continuous image with no
breaks and spaces.

The Doric
The Doric has a simple capital with no base when compared to
the Ionic and Corinthian.
Also, the Corinthian style has a more embellished capital than
the Ionic order as stated above.
As seen in each of the columns, each drum has groves curved
into them that help to line the columns in a single look.
Also, the Greek style employed the entasis approach where the
columns tapered the bottom and the top to help them look
vertical
The Doric has a simple capital with no base when compared to
the Ionic and Corinthian. Also, the Corinthian style has a more

Perhaps, the market house was structured using the Greek
architecture to explain the development of the American
14. Architecture when they were breaking off with the colonial
powers. As seen in each of the columns, each drum has groves
curved into them that help to line the columns in a single look.
Also, the Greek style employed the entasis approach where the
columns tapered the bottom and the top to help them look
vertical. Despite the striking similarities between the modern
and the Greek architectures, the purpose of the buildings are
different. The Greeks used the architectures to create beauty
and stories while the modern day American architectures create
an individualistic or cheap look as opposed to the early years
where they explained stories. They do not pay much attention to
intrinsic details and do not care how they look (Wesley, 2012).

As presented on the Course Information page and in Unit 1, you
will curate an Art History art exhibition as a course project.
16. The theme of this exhibition will be 'The Evolution of Art'.
During Unit 3, you will submit the first part of your Art History
course project. Each part will be built upon the concepts and
topics you are learning. Only content from Unit 3 is required to
compare modern architecture with the course content, however,
you are encouraged to create a personal collection of images
where you can make your own conclusions of the work,
comparing / contrasting to what you like. A draft of your
project covering content from the first three Units will be due
for review, and feedback will help to guide you towards
creating a dynamic final presentation.
For this piece, you are going to discover the architecture in your
community! Take some time to explore your hometown, and
take a close look at the architecture of the buildings. Chances
are, you will notice that there are still many design elements
created by the Ancient Greek that are still used today. Take
pictures of the details you find that remind you of the Ancient
Greeks, and describe what you see. Try to find 4-6 different
images to talk about. It doesn't have to be 4-6 buildings: look
for 4-6 details on buildings. Common places where you might
find these details are: town halls, banks, churches, even some
houses. Present your discoveries in a PowerPoint presentation,
complete with titles for the images, and a description for each.
Next week you will submit Part 2 of your course project and it
will be used to cover the content from Unit 4 and Unit 5. An
updated draft of the project covering Units 1-5 is due for
review, and feedback will be provided to further guide you
through the final project.
To add to your project, take a virtual trip to the Metropolitan
Museum of Art in New York City (see your resources for a
link)! Navigate their site and search for an artifact from their
Early Christian/Byzantine collections. Choose an item (or items
if you want to explore more than one!), and write a short essay
about it. Observe its traits, identify the origin, and interpret its
execution and symbolism in regards to the time’s artistic
tendencies and religious trends. Illustrate your knowledge of
17. the art by evaluating an artifact of your liking!
Don't forget to add images to your PowerPoint presentation
from this virtual trip and to incorporate the art from Unit 4 as
well!
This is due by end of day Sunday in Unit 5. If you should have
any questions, please post in the "Ask the Instructor" forum so
everyone can benefit! Attached you will the grading criteria for
this portion of your course project.

this portion of your course project.
In this Unit, you will submit, by the end of dayFriday, a rough
draft of the course project written document that will
accompany your art presentation. You will also include a draft
of the presentation, covering Units 1-7 for review and
feedback. Utilize the grading rubric to guide you through this
rough draft and remember, the earlier you submit this; the faster
you will receive feedback from your instructor!
18. To add to your written and visual piece, the Unit 7 Course
project #3 submission criteria is as follows:
The architecture of the Romanesque period had significant
influences from the Ancient Romans. Do these Romanesque
buildings remind you of anything from the Ancient Roman
Unit? Do you see similarities within these buildings that are
alike you’re your architectural search of your community in
Unit 3? Choose one Romanesque feature of architecture, be it
an entire structure or a specific detail, and compare/contrast it
with one from the Ancient World. Interpret how the
Romanesque period used the influence from the Ancients to
create a new system for Christianity.
Throughout the course, you have curated an exhibition of art
with themed; 'The Evolution of Art'. Using the unit concepts as
a guide, you organized a PowerPoint presentation 'exhibition' of
images where each topic is represented. You were creative, and
generated an exhibition that represents your tastes and interests
based on what you learned. For each image selected, you will
have a brief appraisal; as if you were an art critic. You also set
aside facts and figures, and described your personal reaction to
each piece, as if you were visiting a museum with a friend and
expressing your reactions based on the knowledge acquired in
this course.
Here is the breakdown of your submissions; you are expected to
include all unit concepts in your exhibition. You submitted and
received feedback on the following sections:
· Unit 3: Ancient Greek architecture (exploring your own
community)
· Unit 5: Virtual trip to Metropolitan Museum of Art in New
York City: Early Christian/Byzantine Collection
· Unit 7: Romanesque buildings/Written submission/Rough
draft presentation
· Unit 8: Final Course Project (written and presentation)
Taking the feedback you received and any new information,
complete the course project and submit via this link.
The final course project will consist of:
19. 1. PowerPoint presentation, which includes:
A. Cover slide
