The Prophet’s Mosque

Two categories describe the distinctive visual elements of Islamic art/architecture as decorated surface and structural shape. Understanding these characteristics of Islamic art/architecture proves a historical journey of the second holy mosque built next to the Prophet Muhammad’s home in Medinah in the 5th century 622 C.E. (Araffin 2005). The evolution of mosques from the humble rendering of the first erected with the Prophet’s own hands to the geometric patterned, repetitive designed, and calligraphy domed places of prayer and worship found in the Islamic world today is a testament to the faith in God of all Muslims globally. The ensuing ...

Introduction

The country of Bangladesh has historically served as a virtual bulls-eye for cyclonic activity in its corner of the Indian Ocean. Not only is the bay that leads onto shore extremely flat (and shallow), the shoreline is shaped like a horseshoe, which draws the storm activity inward. Also, the Bangladeshi lowlands along the ocean are also flat, and they do not drain well at all. This is good when you want to grow rice, but it is not so good when you want to avoid tragedy when a cyclone blows ashore and brings flooding with it. In the centuries before such ...

Introduction

Over the course of history there has been a close relationship between rhetoric and music; this is especially evident in the Baroque period (rhetoric).

Until relatively recently in Western society, music was an form primarily focused on vocals, and consequently words were of extremely high importance. Due to this trend, composers were usually inspired by rhetorical principles when coalescing text and music (rhetoric). Likewise, even after instrumental-centered music became popular, rhetoric principles continued to be relied on in creating both vocal and instrumental music.

What is still largely unclear is how the interrelationships influenced the craft of composition. This is ...

The Response of the Victorian Churches to Charles Darwin’s Doubt

Pitch
Contrary to the perception of the Victorian Era as one of the highlight of English Christianity and even morality among societies, the situation was not so behind closed doors. The people were beginning to question the Biblical inspirations and teachings based on Christian doctrines that had otherwise defined their existence and faith for centuries. Accordingly, the sources of doubt were twofold: there was a rapid development of biblical criticism, and the scientific discoveries were challenging cultural norms. Perhaps there was no original sin. Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution presented an alternative for the European societies of the ...

Abstract

Revolution refers to the drastic changes in the governmental institution, which is carried out by the non-institutional forces. According to Theda Skocpol’s model of revolutions, the revolutions begin with the “Crisis of State” that is initiated by diverse international factors including the security and economic competition from the world. This condition of “crisis of state” is augmented by a second factor that involves the “Class Dominance” that identifies that which group will exploit the situation of revolution. These two basic factors bring about the social revolution. This research will highlight that the model elucidated by Skocpol is an appropriate ...

The Middle East has been a region that has been in a state of crisis for over a century now. Since the redefining of its political boundaries post World War I, the prolonged conflict between Israel and Palestine to the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the region has been the site of conflicts based on a wide range of justifications. Dictatorships, religion, land disputes, possession of weapons of mass destruction, the subjugation of populace, and, arguably, oil have been some of the common war points. However, just how true these justifications of war are depends greatly on the perception of the Middle East, its ...

Background of the Study

Since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), the role of China in the relation between Thailand and Cambodia has been quite evident. China has been involved in a number of ways, including the border disputes between Cambodia and Thailand, which started several years ago. Cambodia’s historical concern about Thailand’s inversion on its western provinces depicts a case where an ASEAN state has suspended diplomatic relations with another (Weatherbee 2008). The border dispute started in 1954, and in 2003, it took a new course. This conflict has impacted negatively on the development of ASEAN and on the ...
