Rosamund Pike has proven herself skilled at playing sociopathic and unhinged characters over her career, such as her recent role as Marla in "I Care a Lot". The document argues that Pike deserves more opportunities to play such characters because she brings them to life in a compelling way that benefits audiences, even if it makes them feel like harming themselves. It praises her previous role as Amy Dunne in "Gone Girl" as another example of her talent for playing chaos-causing but insightful characters who will go to extreme lengths to get what they want.Single film

Feudalism involved a hierarchy from king to nobles to serfs, with loyalty to the land and ideals of chivalry where knights were brave, virtuous Christians who fought for justice. Arthurian legends spread in the 11th century and featured King Arthur and heroes undertaking quests, though their factual basis is unclear. One such story is Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, about King Arthur's virtuous yet imperfect nephew who undergoes three challenges.20141010 The Anglo-Norman Period

1) The document discusses two images - a photo by Kirsty Kelly of her daughter posing in front of a painting, and a photo composite by Lyubomir Bukov showing elderly people and their younger shadows.
2) Kelly's photo seems to have captured a spontaneous moment, while Bukov's is a constructed image combining separate photos to make a statement about youth and old age.
3) The two images are analyzed in light of Henri Cartier-Bresson's concept of the "decisive moment" - an instant that reveals the essence or significance of an event. Kelly's photo may have captured such a moment, while Bukov's is more of an artistic construction than a spontaneous photographAraucaria

San Francisco Palace of Fine ArtsDoctorSequoia
?
The Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco continues a tradition of circular temple architecture that can be traced back to ancient Greece. Specifically, it emulates the tholos, a circular structure with a ring of columns surrounding a domed roof. While originally intended to gradually fall into ruin to symbolize the impermanence of human achievement, the Palace instead crumbled in an unsightly way. In the 1960s it was completely rebuilt using more permanent materials while striving to accurately recreate the original design, ensuring its legacy would continue for generations.Memories of Dan Tarpley

Cable Cars of San FranciscoDoctorSequoia
?
The document provides a history and timeline of the cable cars in San Francisco:
- Andrew Hallidie tested the first cable car system in 1873 which led other lines to convert from animal power to cable cars.

Poetry at Texas Technological College in the early 1960sDoctorSequoia
?
This document summarizes the literary magazine "Harbinger" produced by the Texas Tech English department in the 1960s. It highlights a particularly good poem published in 1961 called "Scooter" written by a student named Ronald Horn. The author and his friend Hunter Heath sought out Horn but were unable to find him. In response to censorship of content in the next issue of Harbinger, the author and Heath created their own magazine called "The Loneliest Road" featuring works from Texas Tech poets. It provides brief details on the later careers of those involved.Samuel Johnson on Painting
Samuel Johnson on PaintingDoctorSequoia
?
Samuel Johnson discusses the limitations of painting in conveying emotion and sentiment found in language. He gives the example of a passage from the Iliad where a Trojan prince begs for his life from Achilles, and how no painting could fully express this through attitudes and dispositions alone. Johnson values portraiture over history painting as portraiture allows for the depiction of real individuals. He would rather see a portrait of a dog he knows than allegorical pictures. Painting is best able to capture individual dignity and thinking powers through portraiture.Viollet le-duc; Savior of Notre Dame de Paris
Viollet le-duc; Savior of Notre Dame de Paris DoctorSequoia
?
Eugène-Emmanuel Viollet-Le-Duc led the extensive restoration of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris in the 19th century to repair damage done over centuries. Victor Hugo's 1831 book "Notre Dame de Paris" helped inspire the restoration by drawing attention to the cathedral's deteriorated state following attacks during the French Revolution and "restorations" that removed original features. Viollet-Le-Duc restored sculptures, rebuilt parts of the structure, and added new elements like gargoyles, aiming to preserve the Gothic spirit of the cathedral despite going beyond mere repair work. The restoration faced criticism but was largely paid for by the French government at the time. Now in 2019, some officialsAspects of Yoshitoshi

The Bee in Swimming PoolDoctorSequoia
?
The document describes an experience where the author found a bee struggling in a swimming pool. The bee was unable to escape from the water weighing down its wings. The author took pity on the bee and scooped it out of the water in their hands, setting it down safely on the concrete. The document then reflects on how little even social insects like bees may understand of the larger forces and systems that affect their lives, much as humanity struggles to comprehend the greater workings of the world and universe.Successful Treachery in Art and Life
Successful Treachery in Art and LifeDoctorSequoia

It describes a woodblock print showing a demon escaping after tricking a samurai into opening a box containing its severed arm. Later examples discuss Delilah's successful betrayal of Samson without consequences for her, and Jacob deceiving his brother with his mother's help. The document also notes that while betrayal is usually condemned, there are cases where it is rewarded or serves a greater good, such as undercover police work against criminal groups.James Northcote Diligence and Dissipation
James Northcote Diligence and DissipationDoctorSequoia

The document describes a series of 10 engravings by James Northcote and Thomas Hellyer from 1796-1797 titled "Diligence and Dissipation" that contrast the lives of two female servants - the modest girl who works diligently and the wanton girl who wastes her time in dissipation. The engravings show the wanton girl being turned out of her job for misconduct, falling into poverty and disease, and ultimately being buried, while the modest girl rejects the illicit advances of her master, receives honorable marriage proposals, and ultimately marries her master.William Hogarth The Rake's Progress

Behind her, a hunk of coast, a Hotel with palms Seemed to expand from her thighs and Spread breast-lifting arms. She was slapped up one day in March. A couple of weeks, and her face Was snaggle-toothed and boss-eyed; Huge tits and a fissured crotch Were scored well in, and the space Between her legs held scrawls That set her fairly astride A tuberous cock and balls Autographed Titch Thomas, while Someone had used a knife Or something to stab right through The moustached lips of her smile. She was too good for this life. Very soon, a great transverse tear Left only a hand and some blue. Now Fight Cancer is there. — Philip Larkin
