Capoeira
[ send me this paper ]
Capoeira is an ancient martial art which incorporates dance, music and elements of play. It is one of the defining characteristics of a rich Afro-Brazilian Bahia culture. Once stigmatized as a silly activity meant as simple entertainment for the poor black Brazilian descendants of slaves in earlier centuries, Capoeira is now considered a modern metaphor for cultural freedom and defiance. This 23 page paper examines the art form of Capoeira in relation to its positive contributions to cultural and social structural developments. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Caravaggio's Conversion Of Saint Paul
[ send me this paper ]
At the beginning of the
seventeenth century, the artist, Michelangelo Merisi (called
Caravaggio), began to paint in a manner that was at once new and
exciting as well as echoing the best of the Renaissance Masters who had
come before. This 20 page paper argues that the use of light and
shadow, specifically in the painting, The Conversion Of Saint Paul, is
both a dramatic iconographic technique and a reflection of the baroque
period characteristic that was such an integral component to
Caravaggio's personal style. Bibliography lists 13 sources.
