Niccolo Machiavelli

Machiavelli was a diplomat in Florence who tried to answer how could a ruler guarantee that he would stay in power by writing The Prince in 1513. Machiavelli claimed that people were greedy and self-centered. He argued that rulers should not be good, and that rulers should do whatever is necessary to keep power and protect their city, including killing and lying. Today, when someone is called a Machiavellian, it means that they are acting tricky and not thinking about the good.

Write a paragraph of at least 125 words explaining why the word "feelings" is an appropriate key word for the Romantic arts.
Mkey [24]
The Era of Romanticism during the 19th Century were coincides with the word, "feelings" due to intellectual and philosophical works being made. For example Caspar David Friedrich's Romantic Painting, "Wanderer Above The Sea Of Fog" pulled out the emotions and feelings of what the audience saw. People may have different opinions of art but the art like Friedrichs gave a sense of feeling and emotion. These feeling could include enthusiasm, energetic, curiosity, horror, etc. The main goal of a Romantic art work was to convey emotion (feelings). This could be due to the exaggerated colors used in paintings, sculptures or architecture. Another example is the "Grand Staircase of the Paris Opera" made by Charles Garnier. His Romantic architecture screamed out all kinds of feeling due to the exaggerated details and shape of the staircase and room. It lived up to its name, it seems like a Grand Staircase fit for a monarch and thats what makes the common man or woman feel all these emotions just by studying Garnier's Architecture. The Romantic Art age was a time to focus on the individual's feelings and perceptions of the World; from the Artist to the audience.
