The Blue Books as Ethnography The figure of the factory inspector is set out by Marx, primarily in “The Working Day” chapter of Capital, volume one, not as an uncritically approved person of unassailable credentials, but as an advocate of investigation that does a service for the working class “that should never be forgotten”.

hierarchy, the divine. The colors blue and purple come up frequently surrounding the 18 or 19 year old girl, named Mary Grace.

H. Cone's The Spirituals and the Blues The book, The Spirituals and the Blues, by James H. Cone, illustrates how the slave spirituals and the blues reflected the struggle for black survival under the harsh reality of slavery and segregation. The spirituals are historical songs which speak out about the rupture of black lives in a religious sense, telling us about people in a land of bondage, and what they did to stay united and somehow fight back.

Some neuroscientists argue that this norm of gender colors is because of biological differences between sexes. Back in prehistoric days, people wanted clear skies for good weather. Therefore they started to have a tendency of preferring blue colors and that tendency had

This painting by Vincent Van Gogh is on display at the Art Institute of Chicago Museum, in the Impressionism exhibit. There are many things going on in this painting that catch the viewer’s eye. The first is the piece’s vibrant colors, light blues and browns, bright greens, and more. The brush strokes that are very visible and can easily be identified as very thick some might even say bold. The furniture, the objects, and the setting are easy to identify and are proportioned to each other. There

As demonstrated in various artistic triptychs of the High Renaissance, the colour blue has been reserved for the Virgin Mary’s iconic mantle, based on notions that blue signifies purity, heavenliness, and “calmness” (Natasha Eaton 146). Marina Warner, in her book, Alone of All Her Sex: the Myth and the Cult of the Virgin Mary, explicitly states that “blue is the color of the Virgin” (xx). Because the Virgin Mary’s Perpetual Virginity is an aspiration, Warner hypothesizes that such a social construct
