Abstract
The paper describes the painting as oil on canvas that was donated to the Art Gallery of Ontario by the Ontario Heritage Foundation in 1988. This expressionistic painting measures 90.8 x 61 cm and the figure of Dr. Stadelmann is presented in a naturalistic but stylized manner. The paper explains that the pre-iconographic level of analysis, the level defined by Panofsky and cited in Schneider Adams in "The Methodologies of Art" as primary, or natural subject matter, gives an object of a standing male figure.

Abstract
This paper examines Van Gogh's painting and explains how the artist impetuously and arbitrarily exploited the new color dimensions of the Post-Impressionist period within the work. The style is examined and the person behind the portrait is explained to be a doctor that looked after van Gogh during the later part of his life.
From the Paper
"As to Van Gogh's painting style which is a very important component of his artistic life, the thickness, shape and direction of his brush strokes created a tactile counterpart to his intense color schemes through thickly-loaded brush moves back and forth or at right angles, giving a textile-like effect; Van Gogh also would take the paint tube and squeeze dots or streaks upon the canvas. This bold, almost slapdash attack upon his canvases, at least in the eyes of his contemporary art critics, was viewed as highly disturbing; thus, it could be said that Van Gogh, through the use of different paint strokes, both infuriated and calmed the viewer."

Abstract
This paper briefly summarizes and positively reviews Dr. Ruth Westheimer's book, "Dr. Ruth's Guide for Married Lovers", explaining that the book, while quite humorous at times, also unveils several fallacies about sex, explains the differences in the sexual drives in men and women, explains why the sexual drives differ, and offers suggestions on how individuals can improve their sex lives.
From the Paper
"In the next few chapters, Dr. Ruth discusses sexual fantasies, and honeymoons. Dr. Ruth believes fantasies are good, and healthy, allow for a person's mind to escape during sex, and helps individuals to relax and enjoy themselves. She then discusses honeymoons, but curiously, only honeymoons for those who are still virgins. She claims there are a good deal of married couples who are virgins when they get married, but it seems more likely, that there are a greater number of non-virgins. However, the chapter is helpful, for both virgins and non-virgins. She discusses the expectancies and problems with new relationships. The man may be overly excited, and the woman may have difficulty getting excited. She suggests patience and understanding from both sides, and reminds the reader, that sex does not have to hurt. Then in a humorous, but also shameless plug of her book, Dr. Ruth suggests giving, Dr. Ruths Guide for Married Lovers, to a newly married couple as the perfect wedding gift."

Abstract
This paper compares two original paintings currently housed in the Columbus Museum of Art in Columbus Ohio. The two works are self portraits, each by American artists of the 20th century. The first painting discussed is "Self Portrait" by Chuck Close. The second is "Self Portrait 1986" by Andy Warhol. The paper shows that although the works are very different, they still tend to represent a similar school in art.
From the Paper
"Another realist artist of the pop area currently exhibited at the Columbus Museum of Art is Andy Warhol. His life and his work are quite different from that of Chuck Close, yet some elements of their social and personal development are the same. Warhol was born in Pennsylvania, the son of immigrant farmers. While Close and Warhol both lost their fathers at relatively young ages, and both showed early talent for art, Warhol went toward a more commercial venue in his early art."

Abstract
This paper discusses the moral and ethical issues of physician-assisted suicide by examining the case of Dr. Kevorkian. It discusses whether his acts were criminal or moral and whether the entire issue of euthanasia should be allowed in the medical profession.
From the Paper
"Dr Kevorkian is known as Dr. Death. (Vonnegut, 1999) This benevolent, unassuming medic made it his lifelong ambition to allow those suffering from terminal disease to die with dignity. Dr. Kevorkian's role was limited to a point; the afflicted person administered the drugs themselves. But then in a demonstration of brazenness, on National TV, Dr. Kevorkian administered the drug to a patient himself. Dr. Death was convicted of first-degree murder and is now confined to a life sentences in a prison in Michigan."

Dante Gabriel Rossetti?s Poem ?The Portrait?, 2005.
This paper discusses Dante Gabriel Rossetti's poem "The Portrait", which celebrates love, art, the artist and eternity as the poet moves through time while gazing at a portrait of his lover.
1,025 words (approx. 4.1 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 36.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that the "The Portrait", a complex poem, operates on two different levels: First, the reader becomes aware of the relationship of the artist and his piece of work; and then the poem probes the connection existing between the artist, his sense of self and how those emotions shape the creation of art. The author points out that the rhyme scheme in this poem is ababccddc, which allows the poem to read smoothly, and the poet's use of words forces the reader to read slowly. The paper relates that Rosette includes the mythological story of Narcissus to further the idea that the poet is just as attached to his art as he is to the memory of his lover.
From the Paper
"The first lines of the poem introduce us to a relationship between an object of art and the viewer of that piece of art. It is important to note that the poet is speaking to himself because this allows us to see how the poet is not just examining the work of art. The act of looking at his artwork moves him to explore himself as well. The notion of the exploration of self can also be seen when the poet compares the painting to the image he sees in a mirror. He writes, "It seems a thing to wonder on/As though mine image in the glass/Should tarry when myself am gone" (Rosetti 2-4). These statements reflect the story of Narcissus in that when the young man turns from his image, the object of his affection disappears."

Christopher Marlowe's "The Tragical History of Dr. Faustus", 2002.
Analysis of the character of Dr. Faustus in Chrisopher Marlowe's play "The Tragical History of Dr. Faustus" and its theme of damnation.

Abstract
Pride, anger, avarice, gluttony, sloth, lust, and envy all manifest themselves in Dr. Faustus throughout the play. Not only do they manifest themselves within the psychological understanding of the play, but the seven deadly sins also appear as characters in the plot. Through his use of the seven deadly sins, then, Marlowe is demonstrating the path to damnation in relation to the developing Christian theology of his day.

Dr. Kevorkian, 2004.
An analysis of the life and family heritage of Dr. Jack Kevorkian, otherwise known as Dr. Death.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses the rise and fall of Dr. Jack Kevorkian and traces it primarily to two factors: His familial heritage and the condition of being the child of a Holocaust survivor. The paper explores the family issue that combined medicine, a family profession in which Kevorkian was interested, as well as a macabre genre of medicine. The paper examines the psychology of Holocaust survivor children, explaining that this also presents a template on which Kevorkian could construct a helping role that nonetheless offered opportunities to indulge his narcissism.
From the Paper
"Dr. Jack Kevorkian, also called Dr. Death in the popular press, has lived a life outside the normal bounds of society. Some might call him a hero; others might call him a psychopath. The truth is, of course, that a variety of factors shaped his actions, none of which automatically lead to heroics or psychopathology. In looking at the circumstances of Dr. Kevorkian's early life and family heritage, however, it is not difficult to understand how he embarked on his quest to change the way America looks at and deals with death, particularly death chosen by an individual for himself or herself."

Abstract
This paper discusses how Dr. James Dobson and Psychologist Erik Erikson both have interesting views concerning the states that a child goes through and the discipline needed to successfully endure each one. It looks at how Dr. Dobson's views mostly concern disciplining your child. In comparison, it examines how Erik Erikson, doesn't stress this in child development and how it is evident that the stages described by him coincide with the amount and type of discipline suggested by Dr. Dobson. The first five stages of his psychosocial stages of development are between birth and nineteen years, roughly the childhood and adolescent years that will need the most discipline by the parents.
Outline:
Stage One: Trust versus Mistrust
Stage Two: Autonomy versus Shame and Doubt
Stage Three: Initiative versus Guilt
Stage Four: Industry versus Inferiority
Stage Five: Identity versus Role Confusion
From the Paper
"Dr. James Dobson and Psychologist Erik Erikson both have interesting views concerning the sates that a child goes through and the discipline needed to successfully endure each one. Dr. Dobson's views mostly concern disciplining your child. Although another psychologist, Erik Erikson, doesn't stress this in child development, it is evident that the stages described by him coincide with the amount and type of discipline suggested by Dr. Dobson. The first five stages of his Psychosocial Stages of Development are between birth and nineteen years, roughly the childhood and adolescent years that will need the most discipline by the parents."

Abstract
This paper discusses the history of Heinrich events, and current theories of their origin. Additionally, this paper outlines the scientific method for discovering more information of Heinrich events, and their relationship to the Bond Cycle, Milankovitch Cycles, and Dansgaard-Oeschger (D-O) oscillations. Finally, it looks at the possible effects on global climate as the result of Heinrich events, using the Younger Dryas as the basis for discussion.
From the Paper
"Heinrich events were first discovered by Hartmut Heinrich of the German Hydrographic Institute of Hamburg, Germany in 1988. Heinrich extracted samples from northeastern Atlantic sediment cores, and analyzed the samples. He discovered that the number of lithic, or rock sediment, and planktonic foraminifera (zooplankton) shell formations fluctuated greatly in many of the core samples. Additionally, Heinrich noted that the components of the sediments seemed not to fluctuate gradually, but seemingly abruptly (Hackett, 1994)."

Dr. Ossian Sweet, 2007.
This paper provides an opening statement for the defendant in the case of Dr. Ossian Sweet.

»

Abstract
In this article, the writer provides an opening statement in defense of the actions of African-American Dr. Ossian Sweet. The writer explains that Dr. Sweet, a law-abiding citizen, was faced with open hostility from members of racist organizations like the Klu Klux Klan, who barraged the Sweet family with threats almost as soon as the family arrived in Detroit. The writer describes how throngs of hostile Whites mobbed his house one night, throwing stones. The writer raises the issue of self defense and notes that we live in a divided world, in a divided city where many people fear losing their jobs and thus perhaps are more apt to fear people who are different. The writer concludes by asking the jury to honor their duties to the law and to simple humanity, and to imagine themselves in Dr. Sweet's shoes.
From the Paper
"Sweet was the grandson of lawbreakers--yes, run-away slaves, people for whom it was criminal to be free, people to whom this land should bow down and apologize for deferring the dream of freedom for yet another generation. Like his parents, Ossian Sweet believed that if only he worked hard, the American dream of success might be his, and that he might live free and proud, safe and secure in his own home. What more could any father want?"
"Sweet left the hated South, a Florida of lynchings and Jim Crow, and fled northward, as so many African-American have done, in search of greater opportunities. He dreamed and achieved the ultimate American dream of home ownership. But cruelly, in the Promised Land of the North, right here, in Detroit, he found only violence. Members of racist organizations like the Klu Klux Klan barraged the Sweet family with threats almost as soon as the family arrived."

Abstract
The following is an essay and analysis of the media attention which surrounds Dr. Laura Schlessinger . Examined first, is the news coverage which she has been receiving, and in turn, why it is controversial. Second, the focus of this discussion is turned toward the goal and aim of 'deconstructing' Dr. Laura Schlessinger . To this end, a number of secondary sources are raised and analyzed toward the end of understanding where this 'perspective' comes from, and in turn, some of the more glaring limitations of her position on homosexuality. This paper argues that this is a form of prejudice which is not substantiated by 'science', and conversely, this paper demonstrates that, in contrast to Canada's inching progress in terms of politically acknowledging same sex relations, Dr. Laura Schlessinger represents a regressive rather than a forward thinking or progressive means of thinking - that is, within a 'liberal' or 'egalitarian' framework.

Abstract
This paper provides a synopsis and analysis of the classic horror story, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde". The paper suggests that the main theme throughout the story is that of fear and that this theme manifests itself in the character of Dr. Jekyll. The paper focuses on the different facets of Dr. Jekyll's fear and concludes with a short discussion on what may be learned from reading the story.
From the Paper
"Novels or films often have several themes running simultaneously together, and authors or directors often highlight more than one theme so that they can portray a maximum amount of their thoughts to the reader. There are certain writers who portray these themes in almost all their novels, and thus earn a reputation for using them. The introduction and use of a theme often depends on the experiences of these people and their ability to put these experiences into words. In putting some of these themes into words, addition of other themes is often unavoidable (Nabokov, pp184). In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde one may say that the main theme is that of fear, but along with it this there are others too. However, it is better to focus on the theme of fear because it seems to be the main one and the most important one in the character of Dr. Jekyll."
