Cubism and Pop Art Cubism and Pop Art are both products of the twentieth century. As the world moved into and through the twentieth century there were major changes in people’s life styles, beliefs and values. As the twentieth century progressed there were two major wars, the Depression, women’s suffrage movement, Prohibition, Korean Conflict and the Cold War as well as the Vietnam War. With these changes came changes in the visual art, literature, music and architectural worlds. Cubism came about during the early part of the twentieth century and Pop Art came during the late 1950’s.
Michael White Book Review GAPE A Critical analysis of Wiebe’s Search for Order: 1877-1920 Wiebe, Robert H. The Search for Order:1877-1920. New York: Hill and Wang, 1967. The Search For Order: 1877-1920, by Robert H. Wiebe, tells the story of America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The purpose of this paper is to compare the historical moment where the play “The Crucible” takes place and the moment when it was written. More than two centuries separate them: the story occurs in 1692 and Arthur Miller wrote it in 1953; but the whole play is a symbolism or an allegory to explain what was happening in the main capitalist countries during the cold war. Therefore, there are numerous points in common between these two historical moments. This essay will be focus on the analysis of the aspects related to the persecutions conducted in both periods: what caused them, the organizations in charge of carrying them out and the methods of these organizations. Some relations with the play itself will also be made.
Stoker makes continued use of symbols and objects throughout the novel in order to further strengthen on this idea. Through these means, Stoker provides a stunning insight into the values and attitudes that typified London in the final years of the 19th Century.

As Jonathon Harker becomes uneasy with his accommodation and host in Castle Dracula, he
The great Gatsby and American Beauty Paired text studies In what ways are the two texts connected or interrelated? To what extent do the texts reflect the values, attitudes and beliefs of the society, culture or historical period in which they were created and/or set? Both F. Scott Fitzgerald's 1926 novel, The Great Gatsby and Sam Mendes' film, American Beauty (1999) cannot fail to impress the reader or audience on the likeness surrounding the two.

Both texts have strong social and historical context, nevertheless, the texts are connected through their exploration of several themes and issues which are of concern to contemporary readers and viewers.
I have researched Harper’s Magazine for the following two periods 1877, June and July, and 1920, April and May. The Evolution of Harper’s Magazine in Industrial America Harper’s Magazine provided its readers in 1877 with intellectual insight about politics, art, the economy, and many other issues.
