Edgar Degas, Man the Myth the Artist
It is in his concepts of man versus himself, his studying of light, capturing a moment and use of large shapes to flatten space that makes Edgar Degas an impressionist. In comparison to his peers, Degas has a tight style of painting and defined, characterized, figures; yet, it is not style that defines impressionism: "Unlike realism, impressionism rarely responded to politics... impressionist painters preferred genre subjects, especially scenes of leisure activities, entertainment and landscape, and

A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings
A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings is a story that not only brings imaginary characters into play but also it combines imagination with events that we live everyday.

The Old Man with Broken Wings
This story is written in a style which is called magical realism. What does that mean?

Other writers simply expand reality to a size large enough to include myth, magic and other extraordinary natural phenomena. This second sort is the one we are dealing with in this story. When the Old Man falls to

Getting Machines to Think like Us
In 1956, a group of computer scientists gathered at Dartmouth College to delve into a brand-new topic: artificial intelligence. The summer rendezvous in the Connecticut River Valley town of Hanover, N.H., served as a springboard for discussions on ways that machines could simulate aspects of human cognition: How can computers use language?

In less than six minutes, this movie reveals with beauty and pure understanding the intimate world of children
