         <description><![CDATA[<div>Picasso leaned towards <strong>Cubism</strong>, a second sect of Post-Impressionism. This style consists of <strong>geometric figures and sharp edges</strong>. This still represents Post-Impressionism since the artist is painting something from his own perception, not what the objects actually look like.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This is a more expressionist piece of Post-Impressionism art. Van Gogh rejects the traditional way of depicting art through the observed world and instead <strong>uses his memories and emotion to convey his art. </strong>He described in a letter to his brother how artists need to be not just "composers," but also "interpreters." </div>]]></description>

         <title>“As is well known, the priests are the most evil enemies—but why? Because they are the most impotent.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Nietzsche was never a fan of Christianity. In his <em>Genealogy of Morals , </em>he outlines the idea of "Master-Slave Morality". 'Master' morality is concerned with the consequences of actions. It values classical virtues such as strength and pride. Slave morality develops in <em>opposition </em>to master morality and is concerned about the intentions of actions. Slave morality values actions on a scale of good to evil. Slave morality depicts masters as being evil and cruel, and slave morality itself is an inversion of master morality. Nietzche ties Christain values such as humility and charity as being examples of slave morality. Nietzche believes that Christianity is the institutional manifestation of slave morality.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Freud was one of the first to challenge the notion that humans were rational, calculating thinkers. Freud's structural model outlined three distinct minds: the id (base drives), the ego (reality), and the superego (societal values and morals). The ego works tirelessly to control the id, which wants instant gratification and pleasure. The ego is weaker than the id and must work to control some of the id's more extreme desires. The superego opposes the id, forcing the person to conform to societal norms. The ego must balance these competing personalities. It is not a master in its own home, as thought before. Human behavior is not the result of rational thought but is instead a fragile compromise between the three minds. </div>]]></description>

Charlie Chaplin was the most iconic actor during this time period, and his comedies mixed political messages with slap-stick comedy. </div>]]></description>
