To understand the natural world and humankind's place
in it solely on the basis of reason and without turning to religious
belief was the goal of the wide-ranging intellectual movement called the
Enlightenment. The movement claimed the allegiance of a majority of
thinkers during the 17th and 18th centuries, a period that Thomas Paine
called the Age of Reason. At its heart it became a conflict between
religion and the inquiring mind that wanted to know and understand
through reason based on evidence and proof.

Hi Ginger. I am creating a course in the history of art. I have posted your link on the page about mummies. I was quite delighted by your approach. Could you tell me about where you teach them what you teach and if you might be interested in the courses I am developing. Warmly, Katherine Bolman, Ph.D. www.ahaafoundation.org/ The quality of life is genuine not in the build-up of material welfare, but in the enlightened creativity of life, in the harmonisation of life. - -- -
I've been looking for someone to be an art history expert! We're a grade 5-8 charter school in Kansas with 1:1 laptops, working with a PBL approach. For my younger/newbie, I find sites for them for the first bit of the year. I'd love to look at these ancient civilizations through their art and literature. You can contact me at GingerTPLC *at* gmail *dot* com. We'd love to have a course that offers more expertise, or better yet, a moment of your time to perhaps Skype in with us sometime. Ginger Lewman Director, f2f Program Turning Point Learning Center

A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations Turabian Quick Guide Kate L. Turabian's Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations presents two basic documentation systems: notes-bibliography style (or simply bibliography style) and author-date style (sometimes called reference list style). These styles are essentially the same as those presented in The Chicago Manual of Style, sixteenth edition, with slight modifications for the needs of student writers. Bibliography style is used widely in literature, history, and the arts. This style presents bibliographic information in footnotes or endnotes and, usually, a bibliography.
