[edit]

What would I add or change in the article?

Dementia, autism, schizophrenia are things in this article that they currently do not have much information on.[3] I would say that I would try to find more information about art therapy affect on these, if any. The history of art therapy may or may not be expandable as well.[3]

Adding: Robb, Megan. “The History of Art Therapy at the National Institutes of Health.” Art Therapy: Journal of the American Art Therapy Association, vol. 29, no. 1, Jan. 2012, pp. 33–37

I think this article contains some more information about the history of art therapy and can add on to the Art Therapy Wikipedia page. It can also (maybe) back up some historical information that's already presented on the Wikipedia page. From what I have seen on the Art Therapy Wikipedia page this article is not listed on their references.

[edit]

Summarize the main point of an article[4]

The article connects Hemingway’s- The Snows of Kilimanjaro story to Hemingway’s time in Paris. The author of the article believes that there may be a connection with the character Harry and Henri Rousseau, who was a French primitive painter. The article also relates the themes rich women destroy men and that women with power (money) are older, with Hemingway’s relationship with Gertrude Stein. [5]

Animals and Figurative Language in Utopia

[edit]

In the first book of Utopia, Raphael Hythloday criticizes sheep farming and its relation to the English economy.[7] Wool clothes and wool production were important for the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century English economy.[7] This created higher profits and led rich farmers to overstock their farms with sheep.[7] Because of the wool industry and less labor intensive farming methods, unemployment rose and forced small farms and workers to move.[7] Raphael Hythloday uses figurative language for the sheep and relates the sheep to the consequences of the wool industry in England.[7] The sheep can be seen as both metaphorical and a metonym for its use in the enclosures of the land owned by small farmers and making rural populations’ lives harder.[7]

Interpretation

[edit]

Scholars who have studied Thomas More say that Augustine of Hippo’s book The City of God may have a role in creating More’s book, Utopia.[8] Scholars say this by knowing that Augustine of Hippo was an important figure for Thomas More.[8] Years before Utopia was written, More gave lectures about Augustine of Hippo and his book, The City of God.[8] Augustine of Hippo’s belief on the best way of life expressed in the book, The City of God partly changed the Renaissance and may have influenced More’s perspective.[8] In Utopia, More alludes to Augustine, as well as, Plato and Cicero, using themes and terms from Augustine’s The City of God as well as from the works of Plato and Cicero.[8]
