Palais Garnier (Opera House) (4/30/24)

Image
When I entered the Palais Garnier, the first I noticed was the lighting of the place. The grand staircase is lit up by chandelier of bright light and is supported by a small square glass ceiling. The lighting makes the place seem magically and made the painting and sculptures around it stand out. In the grand foyer, the gold on the walls and ceiling helped make the painting stand out. I noticed all the painting are at the top of the walls or on the ceiling and columns/structure of the walls helped directed  I believe that the Palais Garnier is important culturally because it was built of the middle-class of Paris. Napoleon could see that the middle class was riding in status and he had to represent them. Back then Palais were for the nobility so Napoleon wanted to make a Palais for the middle class so they had a place to flaunt their riches. It was a place where the middle class can feel like the nobility. The Palais had many riches in it and it is very easy to wealthy in there. It...

Simone de Beauvoir

  One women that made a difference in Paris is Simone de Beauvoir. Simone is a french writer and philosopher. She is most known for writing The Second Sex which brought awareness of the status of women and is also apart of the French feminist movement. She broke a lot of social rules in her day by not getting married and being critical of women rights so she can prove her point that women are overlooked in society. She brought awareness to women and fought for women to be seen. Even though I don't agree to her lifestyle, I think she is an amazing person. I like how she wasn't afraid to call people out. I also like how honest and raw her thoughts and action are. She wrote how thing actually are and didn't try to sugarcoats things. She an amazing example that sometimes you have to broke social rule to get your point across. Her contribution to being a feminist changed how society should view women. Simone bluntly called out men and women to contributing to men being...

Greta Thunberg

Image
  In Stockholm, we got to learn about Greta Thunberg. I can't believe she is only two year older than me and already accomplished so much in her life. She is a Swedish environmental activist. She also is diagnose with Asperger which impact her social interaction but that doesn't stop her from being an activist. One thing that I admire about Greta is that she is not afraid to speak her mind and fight for what she think is important. She doesn't travel by plane because it goes against her views (releasing CO2 into the air causing global warming) and she even got her own mother, who is an opera singer and travels a lot for her job, to stop traveling by planes. When she was only 15, she decided to strike for climate changes in front the Swedish parliament building all by herself. She didn't care that she was by herself because at least she knew she was trying to to take a stand against climate changes instead of doing nothing about it. She changed history after that by brin...
