A View of Medieval Life (7 pp)
[ send me this paper ]
Labels in any time period tend to fluctuate -we
may call the Middle Ages that period of time from
the twelfth century to the fifteenth century. An
art historian would label these early, high and
late Gothic, but for the sake of discussion we will
use "Medieval," to encompass both. A large part
of the population at this time was illiterate, but
that does not mean that they did not love stories
like the rest of us. What has survived from that
period are the stories, in the forms of the works
of Christine de Pisan (1363 - 1431) and Jean
Foissart ( c 1330 - c1404). Yet we will see
different pictures of the same society from their
point of view as we examine their works.
Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Abuse Alert In The Dental Industry
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. Children are often the unwitting victims of domestic violence, even though they are not the specific targets of the adult's anger. Statistics show that in America, a child is reported abused or neglected every thirteen seconds, which equates to more than two point seven million children each and every year. This figure, more than three times as many as was reported in 1980, reflects a disturbing trend toward uncontrolled acts of domestic violence. The writer discusses how dental healthcare professionals can first recognize child abuse in their patients and then deal with the moral and ethical obligations of reporting such abuse. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
