is the case with The Garden of the Finzi-Conitini’s. Giorgio Bassani writes of his own life throughout the entirety of the novel, with themes like the death of love, with the love of his life Micol Finzi-Contini, wealthy landowners, as he was high on the social ladder in his life much like the Finizi-Contini’s are, and he represents the persecution and isolation of the Jewish people, as he is outlawed from tennis courts and libraries.

Michelangelo is a prodigy. He left various kinds of artwork: paintings, sculptures, architectures and so on. Giorgio Vasari repeats a word “divine” in his writing “the Life of the Michelangelo” in order to describe Michelangelo’s artistic talent. As he praises Michelangelo by using the word “divine”, Michelangelo’s art works and techniques surely transcend human natures.

A. “And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth.” (1:14) B.

If Giorgio Agamben’s concept of nudity is accurately understood as the opposite of concealment, or the removal of a veil, then his work Nudities also shows us the truth about inoperativity. This philosophy is less concerned with laziness or sloth within humanity than with the continuation of human actions in the politics of the future.

My summer in Europe I spent six weeks in Florence, studying renaissance art and art history. After this, I traveled across Europe for three weeks and experienced the many beautiful countries and cultures that exist on this continent.

To see works that I thought only existed in books and also to live in the same city that housed the masters, was amazing. I took a drawing class as well in Florence

Roberto Benigni started the movie with his great sense of humor making viewers laugh every time he opens his mouth. Sadly, the movie ended in a horrible sadness as he was shot in the concentration camp because he was trying to save his wife and son. I totally recommend
