"This paper will be concerned with the artistry of Charlie Chaplin. Specifically, it will analyze Chaplin's contribution to the art of film as seen in his treatment of the roles of actor, artist and director. Charlie Chaplin was born on April 16, 1889 in London. He became involved in theatrical acting at an early age, and in this capacity he came to the United States when he was only twenty-one. However, once he arrived in America his interests soon changed from the theater to the new film industry which was being established at the time. Chaplin's first work in film was as an actor under the comedy director Mack Sennett. Sennett was known for his slapstick comedies which featured the Keystone Kops and various other characters.

Abstract
The paper offers a discussion of the aspects of motherhood that inhibit artistry, as exemplified in the Nella Larsen novel "Quicksand," particularly in the conclusion. The paper notes the prevalence of the theme throughout literature.
From the Paper
"The struggle between motherhood and artistry can be traced throughout much of literature. The image of motherhood as a smothering and suffocating force can be seen in Chopin's "Awakening," in Ibsen's" A Doll's House," in Edith Summers "Kelley's Weeds" and in most of the poetry of both Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton. This is of course only a small sampling of evidence of the prevalence of this theme."

Abstract
This paper discusses the works of famous American artist, Georgia O'Keefe, and Renaissance artist, Artemisia Gentileschi. The paper looks at the styles, techniques, and subjects of each artist, as well as their influence in the art world.
From the Paper
"Compared to their more famous male counterparts, women artists have always been relegated to the ephemeral areas of art history. As a whole, this area of study has been grossly unrecognized and under-appreciated for a number of years, mostly due to the absence of solid documentation on the lives of those women who contributed to the long history of art in Western Civilization. Nonetheless, two prominent female painters deserve closer examination; one of these artists is Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-1653) and the other Georgia O'Keefe (1887-1986). Both artists represent the pinnacle of artistic achievement in painting, with Gentileschi firmly established as a master of the Renaissance and O'Keefe as one of the truly great American painters of the 20th century."

Abstract
In "Reframing Organizations", Lee G. Bolman and Terrence E. Deal argue that many organizations today fail due to a lack of imagination. Most managers are ineffective because they are locked in a "psychic prison." The paper shows that the book reveals how, rather than analyzing new organizational challenges through innovative techniques, many managers simply fall back on the same old strategies. The paper covers the suggestions put forward by the authors to reframe organizational problems and analyzes individually all five parts of the book.
From the Paper
"The first part of the book thus deals with frames, which the authors define as "windows on the world and lenses which bring the world into focus." Because organizations are complex and difficult to understand, framing provides managers with a way to evaluate an organization's needs. Framing also helps managers analyze their organization's structure and make decisions regarding the best course of action. Bolman and Deal then introduce the four frames to examine organizational behavior structural, human resource, political and symbolic."

From the Paper
"The AIDS Quilt represents an unprecedented example of grass roots political organizing. The quilt, also known as the NAMES Project Quilt, makes both personal and private statements about mourning, community participation, and activism. The AIDS Quilt is unique among public monuments because it is a collaborative memorial, the organizers of which have vowed to continue the project for the duration of the AIDS epidemic.
A stunning feature of the AIDS Quilt is its explosive growth. The quilt was first publicly displayed in 1987, when it consisted of slightly less than 2,000 panels. At a public exhibition in 1990, the quilt comprised 10,000 panels. By 1992, the quilt included more than 20,000 panels, with an additional 4,000 panels brought to a demonstration in Washington: "The steady rise in the number of panels over the past five years..."

Abstract
"The Shield of Achilles" reveals much about Greek life in the eighth century B.C. and about the degree of social development reached to that time. The story of the shield suggests a society not only where metal is worked but also where there are an urban culture and a rural culture interconnected in the economy.
From the Paper
" "The Shield of Achilles" reveals much about Greek life in the eighth century B.C. and about the degree of social development reached to that time. The story of the shield suggests a society not only where metal is worked but also where there are an urban culture and a rural culture interconnected in the economy, where art is valued as a means of expression, and which is protected by a military structure and a warrior culture.
First, this is a society that has achieved a higher level of organization. Certainly, it is a society that has reached the Bronze Age. Civilization developed following a pattern based on the ability of the human population to learn to use different tools at different stages, different materials from which those tools were made, and different modes of food..."

Abstract
This paper explains that effective advertising campaigns are essential to a company's financial success; a good ad campaign can be a key to a company's success. The author points out that Nike uses a slick mass market advertising strategy; whereas, the microbrewery targets its consumers and potential buyers through trade magazines. The paper relates that the advertising campaign of Internet-based Amazon.com is like Nike's in its broad, ambitious scope, but lacks all the artistry of either Nike or Stone Brewing. Amazon.com places small ads on a multitude of websites, enticing web surfers to view items related to whatever it is they are searching for on the Internet.
From the Paper
"Smaller companies, such as those listed in "Inc." magazine, work with a smaller budget and therefore generally produce less dramatic television commercial spots. Moreover, smaller companies cannot afford the prime time Olympics spots like Nike can. Even so, a host of smaller companies do produce effective, engaging advertisements that target a specific consumer group and leave definite brand imprints. One example is a microbrewery based out of San Marcos, California. Listed in the Inc 500 list, Stone Brewing delivers an effective, artistically brilliant and humorous advertising campaign that manages to bypass television or radio. Instead, Stone Brewing focuses its attention on trade magazines and specialty publications and relies more on clever marketing than on slick ads."
