and films. Unraveling the mystery around Becket's death is a
quest that has been ongoing since the very time of his demise;
such intensity has come full circle in that researchers and
historians alike are still at a loss as to the ultimate resting place
of the dead man's bones. The writer discusses the mystery

Italian Renaissance : When one talks about the Renaissance
the most common topic is art and architecture. It is true that the
Italian Renaissance was marked by some of the greatest and
most prolific masters of painting, sculpture and building. It is
also true that the era marked the emergence of a great deal
more. It was a time of awakening from the intellectual darkness
of the medieval order and the emergence of many of the
concepts that would form the basis for civilization as it is known
today. The era saw the birth of new attitudes concerning the
role of man in his relationship to the world and to God.
Unfortunately, for the most part, the expansion of the 'role of
man' did not include the role of women. This 7 page paper
examines the Italian Renaissance with an emphasis on the
changes and how it effected women in that society.

How The Crusades Influenced A Cultural Change In Art
and Literature : 15 pages in length. The Crusades were highly
influential with regard to the cultural changes in art and literature.
Their contributions are noted in any number of ways, which are
easily detected merely by interpreting the number of literary works
and artistic designs that were prevalent during that period.
There existed a certain political correctness that was associated
with the manner in which the crusades influenced -- and even
represented -- the art and literature that followed their lead. The
writer discusses how the Crusades afforded a considerably
elevated level of civilized culture as it pertained to artistic and
literary styles. Bibliography lists 10 sources. Crusade1.wps
