Philip II of Macedon.
[ send me this paper ]
(10 pp) Who was buried in the tomb below? In early
1977 it was thought to be Philip II, son of
Amyntas, king of the Macedonians, and Captain
General of the united Greeks. The discovery
created an understandable sensation, and aroused
world-wide interest in this extraordinary
personality - father of Alexander the Great,
one of the greatest Macedonian kings, and
also one of the most important political figures
of antiquity. Alexander still holds the title of
one of the great conquerors, and all the power and
mystery that title suggests. Yet Alexander's
warrior-father, Phillip paved the way for much of
his son's actions. Bibliography lists 6 sources (photo of external tomb included).

Pueblo Pottery
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Authentic artistry is a fast-fading tradition. In today's hurried global society, the faster one can produce a piece, the sooner financial gain will be realized. When one contemplates the fundamental essence of Pueblo pottery, however, one is quick to note the tenuous association between money and clayware; rather, the very reason why Pueblo pottery is still produced in its authentic way is to perpetuate thousands of years of Native American social, economic, religious, cultural and political reflection.

Roman Art and Architecture: The Influence of Politics and Religion in the Fourth Century AD
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page discussion outlining the connection between Roman art and politics in the Fourth Century AD. Describes the intense control of art sought by Rome and the final triumph of Christians which resulted in their art in moving from the hidden recesses of ancient catacombs into a position of control in Roman culture. Emphasizes, however, that the Church was just like Rome in that it was very aware of the power of the visual image in swaying public thought and opinion and that they used this power to its utmost, converting and condemning all the way. Concludes that the evolution of art and architecture was really just beginning in Rome and elsewhere around the world. What was consistent, however, was the underlying theme of the influence of politics on art and the corresponding influence of art on politics. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Romanesque and Gothic Art and Architecture
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing the features of Romanesque and Gothic art and architecture. The 11th to 15th centuries saw a great surge of the Christian Church within Europe which was emphasized by the persuasiveness of the Crusades. The growing population of the Church increased the demand for the increased presence in architectural monuments and during the Romanesque and Gothic periods, a great cathedral construction “boom” occurred across Europe. The Romanesque and Gothic architectural styles were distinctive in not only the massiveness of the Romanesque monuments and the introduction of the cruciform plan and the Norman twin towers but also for the introduction of the Gothic era art within the Cathedrals which included the inclusion of art and sculpture of the Madonna and Christ, the radiating Rose Window, radiating chapels, column figures and the gargoyle among many others.
Bibliography lists 5 sources.
