science of the just and the unjust.
2. Having explained these general terms, we think we shall commence our exposition of the law of the Roman people most advantageously, if we pursue at first a plain and easy path, and then proceed to explain particular details with the utmost care and exactness. For, if at the outset we overload the mind of the student, while yet new to the subject and unable to bear much, with a multitude and variety of topics, one of two things will happen---we shall either cause him wholly to abandon his studies, or, after great toil, and often after great distrust to himself (the most frequent stumbling block in the way of youth), we shall at last conduct him to the point, to which, if he had been led by an easier road, he might, without great labor, and without any distrust of his own powers, have been sooner conducted.
3. The maxims of law are these: to live honesty, to hurt no one, to give every one his due.
4. The study of law is divided into two branches; that of public and that of private law. Public law regards the government of the Roman empire; private law, the interest of the individuals. We are now to treat of the latter, which is composed of three elements, and consists of precepts belonging to the natural law, to the law of nations, and to the civil law.
II. Natural, Common, and Civil Law.
The law of nature is that law which nature teaches to all animals. For this law does not belong exclusively to the human race, but belongs to all animals, whether of the earth, the air, or the water. Hence comes the union of the male and female, which we term matrimony; hence the procreation and bringing up of children. We see, indeed, that all the other animals besides men are considered as having knowledge of this law.
1. Civil law is thus distinguished from the law of nations. Every community governed by laws and customs uses partly its own law, partly laws common to all mankind. The law which a people makes for its own government belongs exclusively to that state and is called the civil law, as being the law of the particular state. But the law which natural reason appoints for all mankind obtains equally among all nations, because all nations make use of it.

His art style mainly consisted of pop art, some good examples of that would be the “Marilyn Diptych” or the “Campbell’s Soup Cans. “Artist Andy Warhol transformed the art world with his Pop Art creations of the 1960's most famously including the Campbell's Soup Can series of lithographs and sculptural renderings of oversized boxes of Tide. artists. Pop Art. headshots. eyeglasses. glasses. modern art. lithographers. filmmakers. directors.” (No publisher name, “Andy Warhol”). His job in the artistry came to a sudden halt in 1986 when he was shot by Valerie Solanis 3 times, and was critically injured. Once he healed from his injury he was back in business creating art for the public, he wasn't creating much, but it was something. “During this period of time Warhol does very few works, commissioned portraits of artists friends and gallery owners.” (Klaus Honnef, “Warhol”) Throughout the years Andy was creating for many, and did some of the best art work out there, but unfortunately in 1987 Andy died from a failed
In my opinion this book is not the evaluation of how approximately fifty million people from two thousand years ago thought about the world that they lived in at the time, but about how a few dozen men wrote about it, in a viewpoint illustrative of only a few thousand. In order to support her view, Edith Hamilton tries to bring these people together, threading together their common thoughts and ideologies. Save for the fact that this book only represents a handful of Roman citizens and the way that they saw the world in which they lived, I do feel like I got a better understanding of the “Roman Way” and the way that life was back then. Along with the history that I learned in class on the subject it makes me be able to picture it better in my mind’s-eye.

"They say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself." - Andy Warhol, was born Andrew Warhola and he did in fact change the times in the second half of the 20th Century. Andy Warhol, a leader of the pop art movement, is considered one of the most important American artists. Helping shape American media and popular culture through artwork based on images taken from pop culture. Some of his most famous images include consumer products such as Campbell’s Soup Can, Green Coke Bottles, Brillo Soap Pads Box and Chanel 354.
Andy Warhol was a famous American artist known best for starting the pop art movement during the 1960’s. Born in 1928 in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Warhol was a quiet sickly child who spend most of 1935 in his bed due to an illness, during this time his mother would give him colouring books to keep him occupied, this is probably when his fascination with colourful art began. Before beginning his career as a pop artist Warhol did commercial art doing illustrations for shoe advertisements and setting up display windows for various shops, this art gained him some fame especially his illustrations which were done in a loose blotted ink style which people liked
Common law is “judge made-law” and “includes law by judges when they interpret law (lecture notes, 11/16)”. Common law authors trusted that “natural law was too abstract and theoretical for their pragmatic, concretely focused minds…simply out of touch with concrete human affairs (Coleman 593)”. Therefore, common law was developed.
But throughout the story, his meaning of courage naturally changes as he goes through life changing experiences and how he ages. His take on courage changes because of events like when Atticus shot and killed the feral dog and when he realizes that Mrs. Dubose has an addiction with morphine and she decides to deal with her own problems head on, even though she knew that doing so would be the death of her. One of Jem’s first act of real courage was when he confronted the mob in of crazy townsfolk that are determined to kill Tom Robinson and Atticus if needed. When Atticus sees him he tells him to leave but Jem refuses and he stays put. Scout describes this event as “In the midst of this strange assembly, Atticus stood trying to make Jem mind him’. “ I ain’t going was Jem’s cold answer.” When Scout sees this she realizes that Jem is committing an act of courage. However Scout is more courageous and she then proceeds to address the crowd. But she doesn’t realize how courageous she acted until she is safely tucked in bed that night. Only then does she realize that she, Jem and Atticus were in a very dangerous position and that the line between Bravery and foolishness is a thin
According to philosophers, there are four types of law that guide morality and behavior for humans. Eternal, divine, natural and civil laws all contribute to the quality of life for mankind, but these laws often get confused with each other. This paper will examine two instances of a clash between the civil laws of government and divine laws of religious conviction.

One character that demonstrates courage is Jem and Scout’s father, Atticus. Atticus is a lawyer in a small town, called Maycomb County. He has to take care of his children, Jem and Scout, on his own because his wife passed away when they were young. Atticus defined courage as, “When you know you are licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what” (Lee 112). Atticus sets a good example for his own definition of courage. As a lawyer, Atticus chooses to
"In justice every virtue is summed up" (Aristotle 114). Upon the founding of a community, leaders often want to reach an ideal just society. In order to reach this state of justice, they set forth principles to guide and shape the newly-founded civilization. Unfortunately, the correct values are frequently either misused or not put into practice. This can lead to a decline in a community, where the people never reach a point of true justice. Therefore, a just society must have its basis in solid beliefs. This foundation is achieved through the principles set forth by Aristotle and the teachings of virtue in the New Testament. Laws should regulate people's actions. Each individual should receive equal distributions of items, and in order for the civilization to remain just, each person should lead a virtuous life.
Throughout this paper I will identify and discuss five philosophers as well as their theories on the concept of the nature of law. The five philosophers that I will be discussing are as follows; John Austin, H.L.A. Hart, Lon Fuller, Joseph Raz and Thomas Aquinas. I will also be answering three key questions about each philosopher and their philosophy.
