From the Paper
"Many painters in different eras, cultures and stylistic genres, have shared a love of landscape painting. It is this love of the natural world and their own capacity as artists to evoke elements of that world which links together the two painters whose work is the focus of this essay. These artists are England's John Constable and Holland's Vincent Van Gogh. It will be argued herein that when one examines and compares a landscape painting by each of these two..."

From the Paper
"For society to function properly it must be able to place the utmost trust in those it chooses to protect and to serve its members. The ability to trust police officers and others who are charged with leading the moral path is essential to the continued growth and development of the nation. When a trusted official breaks the law it sends shock waves through society. Constable Robert Hagan II has been charged with stealing from the United States government. His case has made national news because he is a trusted elected official and as such expected to hold himself to a higher standard than the average resident. His case is being watched closely by media and laymen alike as he goes through the process he was supposed to help implement and uphold."

From the Paper
" Nicole Constable, in Maid to Order in Hong Kong: Stories of Filipina Workers, describes the physical and psychological lives of those domestic workers in the homes of Chinese in Hong Kong, their attitudes toward own lives and work, and the attitudes of the workers and the Chinese toward one another. Constable's primary purpose, from a scholarly perspective (she is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Pittsburgh), is to document the particulars of the lives of these women for others interested in labor relations, cross-cultural attitudes, class differences, and the role of the state in regulating foreign workers. However, underlying this scientific viewpoint is the author's clear intention to humanize a group of workers who have previously been dehumanized both by their employers and by those with no first-hand knowledge of the women's experience, but with.."

Abstract
This paper examines the Romantic movement in England, with an emphasis on the literary works of William Wordsworth and the artistic works of John Constable. Wordsworth and Constable are described as representing the Romantic movement in their response to the Industrial Revolution and their representations of the countryside and veneration of nature. Brief biographies are given for Wordsworth and Constable. Wordsworth's poem, ""Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey" is analyzed and discussed in terms of his love of nature. The paper then describes in depth John Constable's life and the influences behind his works. A copy of his painting "View on the Stour" is included in the paper and is described as a good representation of his work. The paper concludes by summing up the Romantic movement as a way for people to escape the cities and return to nature.

From the Paper
"To begin to understand why Wordsworth might have gone the route of Romantic poet, one must understand his background. Wordsworth was born into a family where his father was an attorney working for Lord Lonsdale, one of the biggest landowners in the country (O'Flinn 2001). Wordsworth was raised in the largest house in Cockermouth, Cumberland. He attended St. Johns College in Cambridge and later was appointed Distributor of Stamps for Westmorland. Wordsworth would appear to have the best upbringing one could hope for, with two house servants to help him along the way. However, there was another side to the seemingly perfect life Wordsworth led."

Abstract
This paper studies the levels in crime during the nineteenth century, and the possible causes and reasons for this. It looks at the introduction of the Police Constable into British society, their role and the effects they had upon the crime trends. It also includes other factors that may have affected the crime rate, such as poverty, the increase in population and the increased convictions of crimes.

From the Paper
"The passing of the Metropolitan Police Act in 1829, gave the Home Secretary, Robert Peel, the chance to establish a brand new police force. Two commissioners were introduced to run the force, Colonel Sir Charles Rowan and Richard Mayne, which would consist of 3,000 policemen to serve London, excluding the City of London. To be run similar to a military unit, with military discipline, the force was hoped to be a band of men strong, fit and of high qualities. But it was a very different story in reality; those picked were unfit, ragged, ill-disciplined, young and drunk. The main reason for this was due to the low pay and so the only people attracted to the job were young men who had no families or responsibilities and for half of the time would be drunk. The job would be used as a temporary fill in job, before a person could get into another position. The low rate of pay was the biggest reason for not being able to recruit the best possible person; even by 1872 the problems had not improved. PC Green, a member of the Birmingham police force said "The rate of wages is such that I would never have accepted it had I not been driven to it. The performance of police duties deprives me of both my comfort and my liberty, and when I put on my uniform I become the scoff of every low blackguard in the town." "

Abstract
The paper analyzes the dynamics of why some American men look abroad for wives and use the Internet to find sites that offer to broker introductions with available young women from Eastern Europe, Asia, and South America. The paper further analyzes the relative success rates for these couples, and their problems and challenges in relating to each other and making the marriages successful. The paper discusses the book by Nicole Constable, "Romance on a Global Stage: Pen Pals, Virtual Ethnography and "Mail Order" Marriages", which refutes stereotypes of why American men seek out wives from the Asian nations of China and the Philippines.

"Sex roles and more specifically the higher levels of expectations American women in general have of their husbands to provide stability, opportunities for their own growth and freedom of expression and achievement are together why some American men look off-shore for their wives. Conversely the expectations of these women from other nations that may not have the advanced educations and experienced earning paychecks on their own, and in essence having their own financial freedom makes them more dependent on their American husbands for the definition of their roles."

Abstract
This paper explains that painting in the 19th century, still highly influenced by the spirit of Romanticism, progressing through the "schools' of Realism, Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, proved an even more sensitive medium for personal expression. The author points out that the Impressionists sought to create the illusion of forms bathed in light and atmosphere, which required an extensive study of natural light as the source of all color, leading to the revelation that the actual color of an object is always modified by the quality of the light in which it is seen, by reflections from other objects and by the effects produced by colors lying against each other. The paper reviews in detail the work of Francisco Goya, Jacques Louis David, Eugene Delacroix, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, J.M.W. Turner, John Constable, Edouard Manet, Edgar Degas, Georges Seurat, Paul Cezanne, Paul Gauguin, Vincent Van Gogh and Auguste Rodin.

From the Paper
"The history of 19th century painting in its first sixty years has often been interpreted as a contest between Eugene Delacroix and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (1781-1867) who broke away from David on matters of artistic style, for he believed that David's art was too realistic and based far too much on Greek influences. For Ingres, painting encompassed flat and linear figures, a manner that was severely criticized as being "primitive" and Gothic. However, Ingres soon became the leader of the academic forces in their battle against Delacroix and his contemporaries."
