One of the topics I like about chapter 10 is how Greenblatt describes the content of Lucretius’s poem. He brings up quotes from one of his poems a materialistic and atomistic view of the universe, arguing against superstition, fear of death, and belief in divine intervention. “They say that this world was made of atoms, that is, those tiniest of particular for special ridicule” (Pg 220).Lucretius promotes the idea of a world governed by natural laws rather than the whims…
November 8th I got the opportunity to go see my favorite artist Rod Wave perform at TD Garden. It was a very hectic day to say the most, once I got out of practice I had happened to look at my first and I saw I ad gotten a message from my mother. “Would you be able to make the concert if I got you the tickets?” Luckily that day the football team’s practice was earlier than usual. So I…

One of the things that really stood out to me this chapter was how serious they took court even back then in those times. “All of this activity-far exceeding any other chancery court in Europe-required skilled personnel: theologians, lawyers, notaries, clerks, secretaries. Petitions had to be drawn up in the proper form and filed. Minutes had to be carefully kept. Decisions had to be recorded” (Pg 137 Ch2)… Every piece in the court room mattered and they made sure they…
2-1-Q (Pg 115) “What Poggio accomplished, in collaboration with a few others, remains startling…” “served as the basis for the development of italics.” Poggio knew he had a hidden talent with his writing because nobody at the time had as beautiful handwriting as him. I believe this shows importance because it’s the start of his uprising in a way. Poggio knew Florence had all the money and wealth, so as a teenager he decided to move all the way there…
2-1-Q (Ch 4 Pg 94) “Compared to the unleashed forces of warfare and of faith, Mount Vesuvius was kinder to the legacy of antiquity.” The reason I chose this line is because I think it plays a big role in the chapter. Though the people of Herculaneum had passed with the mountain blowing up, the building and artifacts were still there from the ancient Romans. From the remains they discovered a lot about the ways of living, religion, and their…
Week 2 9/26: This week Ralph Lauren wanted to show the comfort and stylish clothes that they have for woman.

In the comments this week they got a lot of positive responses, but they did not comment back to their feed. Week 3 10/3: October s here and that finally means that pink is here as well. This week Polo has been…
2-1-Q Pg. 51 Ch. 1 “Some fourteen hundred and fifteen hundred years before Poggio set out to see what he could find, Lucretius’ contemporaries had read his poem, and it continued to be read for several centuries after it’s publication.” The reason I chose this section is because I find it unique how though the work they were find was from centuries and centuries ago, we still study and Lucretius’s work. Not only that but we still use some of…
2-1-Q Pg 27 Ch 1 “He was aware too that for others the readings would be an occasion for mockery or simply for chat, and here too the Rule made careful provision…But, above all, he wanted to prevent these readings from provoking discussion or debate”. Why I like this part is because when people began to take the readings as a joke or not serious he would reel them back into showing the importance to them in a way. I…
Wesley Chandler Intro To Arts & Humanities Prof. Cripps My time at the fair was surprisingly fun, right when you walked in there’s loud music and a huge circle with tables and all the clubs and their names. My favorite part about it was how everyone was not afraid to walk up and get you to sign about your club. Each club had little gifts to try and pull you in. My favorite club that I saw there was the…
