MOZART
Mozart is perhaps the greatest musical genius who ever lived. Mozart 's full name
is Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Most people called him Mozart or Wolfgang. Mozart was
born in Salzburg, Austria, January 27, 1756.
Mozart is the greatest musical child prodigy who ever lived. He began composing
minuets at the age of 5 and symphonies at age 9. His father took him on a series of
concert tours together with his sister, Maria Anna; born four and one-half years before
Mozart. She too, was a child prodigy. Both played the keyboard, but Mozart became a
violin virtuoso, as well.
In 1762 he and his sister, "Nannerl," as she was nicknamed, performed before the
Elector of Bavaria in Munich, and at the Imperial Court in Vienna. In 1763 the Morzart's
visited Mannheim. This is where Mozart, learned all about the orchestra and symphonies
composed there.
In London Mozart met the son of J. S. Bach. He played before distinguished
audiences, and composed a sacred chorus. In 1770, he began to master the two types of
Italian opera: opera buffa (comic opera) and opera seria (serious opera). In 1777,
Mozart's family visited Paris. His mother fell ill and died during their visit. In 1782,
Mozart married Constanze Weber against his father's wishes. In 1783, Mozart and
Constanze visited Salzburg, where he helped Michael Haydn out of a difficult spo...
In 1994, football pro and actor Orenthal James Simpson was tried for the murder of his wife and a waiter. O.J.’s wife and the waiter were found murdered outside of her condo. O.J. and his wife had divorced to years prior to the murder, so in retrospect, O.J. automatically looks guilty. O.J.’s wife was found stabbed multiple times in the head and neck. There were also wounds on her hands, showing that she tried to defend herself from the assailant. The wounds to her neck were so severe, her throat was gaping wide open and her spine had been pierced by the blade.
Simpson murder trial, there are a couple of things that piqued my interests. One was the notorious car chase down the Los Angeles freeway in a white Ford Bronco driven by AL Cowlings with O.J. Simpson hiding in the back. Robert Shapiro was supposed to surrender his client to the Los Angeles Police Department, but instead it is my opinion that O. J. Simpson lawyers and friends came up with a plan to get publicity and supporters. The second was the most crucial point of the trial is when O.J. Simpson squeeze his hand into the leather glove that was linked to the killings. This led to the famous argument by Johnnie Cochran “If it doesn’t fit, you must acquit.” As the years passed by many untold stories are revealed. A recent new documentary states that “Simpson had stop talking his arthritis medicine two weeks” in advance so his hands would be swollen to persuade the jury of his innocents.
O.J. Simpson, a great football hero, made the mistake of his lifetime that becomes the most notorious criminal case ever. Growing up on the West Coast wasn’t serene for Simpson because he was surrounded by gangs. In his high school and college years he quickly rose to be a great football player. During his time he played football in college, he was awarded the Heisman Trophy. After he became an elite athlete in college, he was drafted by the Buffalo Bills. He stayed with them for eight years, then transferred to the San Francisco 49ers (Knapp 1). Simpson met Nicole Brown at Daisy, an upscale Beverly Hills club. The two fell head over heels for each other and got married on February 2, 1985. During their marriage, Simpson inflicted many
The double murder case of O.J. Simpson is one that will live on forever and one that will never be forgotten. On June 12, 1994 Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were found dead at Nicole’s home in Los Angeles. According to Doug Linder, it was “most likely a single male that came through the back entrance of Nicole Brown Simpson’s condominium” (Linder). Since they did not have any other suspects they went right to Orenthal James Simpson who was Nicole Simpson’s ex-husband. Law enforcement had seen him as suspicious and they had charged him with both of the murders. The case had gone to trial and it was the prosecutor’s job to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Simpson was guilty and that he had done the crime. Simpson had what was called
In Night of the Living Dead the zombies do not really interact with the humans; they mainly just try to eat them. In the beginning scene of the movie, the zombie who was attacking Barbra showed almost no emotion on his face. He only kept on attacking. It continued like that for the whole movie, with the zombies constantly attacking. Warm Bodies shows similar behavior in some aspects of the book, but it is completely different in others. In Warm Bodies, the zombies also ate the humans. However the book showed that they did not really need to eat to survive, they just wanted to. They felt a hunger that they could not suppress and went out in groups to kill and eat. However, unlike Night of the Living Dead, the zombies in the book can feel attachment to things. In R’s case he felt an attachment to Julie and brought her back. Though there was some difficulty, he ended up being able to communicate with her. The zombies were able to talk with her, and eventually R was able to fall in love with her. This was one of the elements that led me to believe that the zombies from Night of the Living Dead and the zombies from Warm Bodies are two completely different types of
The OJ Simpson criminal investigation was about a legendary football player, OJ Simpson, who was accused of murdering his ex-wife, Nicole Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman. There were many things that made him seem guilty of this crime. For example, after the murders, he was involved in a police chase, sitting in the back seat of his white Bronco, holding a gun to his head. There was also evidence that he had been an abusive husband, with photos of Nicole with marks and bruises, as well as a 911 call she made saying he was going to beat her. At the scene, investigators found many examples of forensic evidence, such as OJ’s blood, hair, clothing fibers, DNA, and a size 12 shoe print, which was his shoe size. They also found evidence
Bulimics tend to be average size, but anorexics look very underweight. Bulimics can be an average weight because even though they are purging, they do not purge everything completely. Some bulimics for example, they eat something healthy like carrots. Later throughout their day they will feel the urge to binge. Once they have binged they feel the need to purge because guilt overpowers them. When they are purging, they purge until they see the carrots. Many bulimics think that by doing it this way that everything is fine, but it is still not good for your teeth and esophagus. Many bulimics can stay a good weight by purging this way. Aside from bulimics maintaining an average weight, anorexics are very underweight. Anorexics barely eat, or stay on strict diets. For example, they will eat very little fruit or vegetables and they will have more liquid-type foods like soup, nothing solid. The calories from eating these foods total up to barely enough to make sure your body functions properly. By eating like this, it does not give you enough energy and you lose a lot of muscle mass, and that is why they look so thin. This is not the only difference between bulimia and anorexia, the way that they look at their problems is different as
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, as he is generally known, was baptized in a Salzburg Cathedral on the day after his birth as Joannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus. The first and last given names come from his godfather Joannes Theophilus Pergmayr, although Mozart preferred the Latin form of this last name, Amadeus, more often Amadé, or the Italiano Amadeo, and occasionally the Deutsch Gottlieb. Whatever the case may be, he rarely - if ever - used Theophilus in his signature. The name Chrysostomus originates from St. John Chrysostom, whose feast falls on the 27th of January. The name Wolfgang was given to him in honor of his maternal grandfather, Wolfgang Nikolaus Pertl.
There are many evidence that support why OJ Simpson was the murdered for his wife Nicole Brown and her acquaintance Ronald Goldman. Police respond to a 911 call on New Year's Day 1989 to find a bruised and bleeding Nicole hiding in the bushes, wearing only a bra and sweatpants, crying: "He's going to kill me! He's going to kill me!" The judge gave him two years of probation, 120 hours of community service, and he was ordered to give $500 to a shelter for battered women this shows that OJ Simpson and Nicole Brown Simpson already developed a very abusive relationship . Furthermore, on June 22, 1994 District Attorney’s office leaked the media t...
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Ludwig van Beethoven are two of the greatest composers ever to write music. Both men lived in the early 18th and 19th century, but their music and influences are still felt today. The men faced similar experiences, yet they both lead very different lives. All together the pieces that these men composed amounts to over 300 published, and unpublished works of art. The people of their time period often had mixed feelings about these men, some “complained that Mozart’s music presented them with too many ideas and that his melodies moved from one to the next faster than audiences could follow, yet the ideas themselves seem effortless and natural, clear and unforced.” (Bonds 210-211) Beethoven’s criticisms ranged from ‘genius’ to grim dislike. Mozart and Beethoven were influenced by things going on around them such as: love, nature, and the Enlightenment.
There is no known exact cause of either anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa, but many factors play a role in the initial onset, such as: personality traits, low self-esteem, and social and cultural influences (Costin, 21). Many anorexics have specific personality traits that urge them to refrain from eating. Many are perfectionists that will diet and exercise and not eat until their bodies are perfect. Unfortunately, however, he or she never thinks their body is perfect, and continues their destructive cycle. Anorexics that are perfectionists also tend to want to be in control at all times. Often , they feel as though others are trying to force them to do
In 1772, Archbishop von Schrattenbach died, to be succeeded by Hieronymus von Colloredo. The latter, at first sympathetic to the Mozarts, later became irritated by Wolfgang's prolonged absences and stubborn ways. In 1772, von Colloredo retained Wolfgang as concertmaster at a token salary. In this capacity Mozart composed a large number of sacred and secular works. Wishing to secure a better position outside Salzburg, he obtained permission to undertake another journey in 1777. With his mother he traveled to France, where he composed the Paris Symphony (1778); he could find no permanent position, however. His mother died in Paris.
The oral stage takes place from birth until age 1, which involves the infant’s mouth as the focus of gratification derived from the pleasure of oral exploration of his or her environment and receiving primary nourishment from one’s mother’s breast. In addition to this, the anal phase takes place from age 1 until age 3, which involves the infant’s more erotic zone changing from the mouth to the anus. Finally, the phallic stage takes place from age 3 until age 6, which involves the child’s genitalia becoming his or her primary aphrodisiacal zone. It is in this third infantile development stage that children become aware of their bodies and the bodies of others. They gratify physical curiosity by undressing and exploring each other and their genitals, and so learn the physical and sexual differences between genders. These stages reflect base levels of desire, but they also involve fear of loss and mistreatment. To keep all of this conflict buried in one’s unconscious, Freud argued that one develops defenses: selective perception, selective memory, denial, displacement, projection, regression, fear of intimacy, and fear of death, among
Both bulimics and anorexics are motivated by a desire to lessen weight. Anorexia is explained in Eating Disorders as: “Anorexia nervosa is a condition in which a person starves him or herself. The key feature of this disorder is the refusal to eat enough food, resulting in a body weight that is far below a healthy level” (Keel and Levitt, 3). While bulimia is explained as: “Bulimia is characterized by episodes of binge eating in which an individual feels a loss of control over food consumption and eats very large amounts of food in single sittings” (Keel and Levitt, 7). From this, it is obvious that patients of both disease resort to measures of losing weight.
