Literature

Civil Liberty. The liberty of a subject to conduct his own affairs as he thinks proper, provided he neither infringes on the equal liberty of others, nor offends against the good morals or laws under which he is living.
Moral Liberty. Such freedom as is essential to render a person responsible for what he does, or what he omits to do.
National Liberty. The liberty of a nation to make its own laws, and elect its own executive.
Natural Liberty. Unrestricted freedom to exercise all natural functions in their proper places.
Personal Liberty. Liberty to go out of one's house, or nation, and to return again without restraint, except deprived thereof by way of punishment.

Religious Liberty. Freedom in religious opinions, and in both private and public worship, provided such freedom in no wise interferes with the equal liberty of others.
Cap of Liberty. The Goddess of Liberty, in the Aventine Mount, was represented as holding in her hand a cap, the symbol of freedom. In France, the Jacobins wore a red cap. In England, a blue cap with a white border is the symbol of liberty, and Britannia is sometimes represented as holding such a cap on the point of her spear. (See Cap Of Liberty.)
Liberty The Goddess of Liberty. On December 10th, 1793, Mlle, Malliard, an actress, was selected to personify the "Goddess of Liberty." Being brought to Notre Dame, Paris, she was seated on the altar, and lighted a large candle to signify that Liberty was the "light of the world." (See Louis Blanc: History, ii. 365-367.)
The statue of Liberty, placed over the entrance of the Palais Royal, was modelled from Mme. Tallien.
The Goddess of Reason. (Aug. 10, 1793.) The Goddess of Reason was enthroned by the French Convention at the suggestion of Chaumette; and the cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris was desecrated for the purpose. The wife of Momoro the printer was the best of these goddesses. The procession was attended by the municipal officers and national guards, while troops of ballet girls carried torches of truth. Incredible as it may seem, Gobet (the Archbishop of Paris), and nearly all the clergy stripped themselves of their canonicals, and, wearing red nightcaps, joined in this blasphemous mockery. So did Julien of Toulouse, a Calvinistic minister.
"Mrs. Momoro, it is admitted, made one of the best goddesses of Reason, though her teeth were a little defective."- Carlyle: French Revolution, vol. iii. book v. 4. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.

Specialty Definition: Art Nouveau

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Art Nouveau is an art and design style that originated at the turn of the 20th century.

There are other terms applied to this style :

Art Nouveau started in the 1880s and had its climax in years 1892-1902. The name Art Nouveau derived from the name of a shop run by Samuel Bing in Paris who showcased some objects that followed this approach to design.

One of the most important characteristics of the style is a dynamic, undulating and flowing, curved 'whiplash' line of syncopated rhythm. Conventional moldings seem to spring to life and 'grow' into plant-derived forms.

As an art movement it has certain affinities with the Pre-Raphaelites and the Symbolist painters, and certain figures like Aubrey Beardsley. Alfons Mucha, Edward Burne-Jones, Gustav Klimt, and Jan Toorop could be classed in more than one of these styles. Unlike Symbolist painting, however, Art Nouveau had a distinctive visual look of its own; and unlike the backwards-looking Pre-Raphaelites, Art Nouveau was not shy about the use of new materials, machined surfaces, and abstraction in the service of pure design.

Glass making was an area in which the style found tremendous expression— for example, the works of Louis Comfort Tiffany in New York and Emile Gallé in Nancy, France.

Art Nouveau in architecture and interior design eschewed the eclectic historicism of the Victorian era. Though Art Nouveau designers did select and 'modernize' some of the more abstract elements of Rococo style, such as flame and shell textures, in place of the historically-derived and basically tectonic or realistic naturalistic ornament of High Victorian styles, Art Nouveau advocated the use of highly-stylized Nature as the source of inspiration and expanded the 'natural' repertory to embrace seaweed, grasses, insects. Correspondingly organic forms, curved lines, especially floral or vegetal, etc., began to be used. Japanese wood block prints with their curved lines, patterned surfaces and voids, and flatness of the picture-plane also inspired Art Nouveau. Some line and curve patterns became graphic clichés that were later found in works of artists from all parts of the world. An important fact is that Art Nouveau did not negate the machine as other movements such as the Arts and Crafts Movement but used it to its advantage. In terms of material usage, the principal ones employed were glass and wrought iron, leading to a very sculpturesque quality even in architecture.

Art Nouveau at its best is considered a total style, meaning that it encompasses a hierarchy of scales in design- architecture, interior design, furniture and textile design, art objects, lighting, etc.

A high point in the evolution of Art Nouveau was the Universal Exposition of 1900 in Paris, in which the 'Modern Style' triumphed in every medium. In the following decade, the new style was so rapidly commercialized in trivial mass-production that Art Nouveau was looked down upon after about 1907, and the term was ascribed a pejorative meaning.

The principal centers of the style were :

Among the most remarkable artists of Art Nouveau are:

Nowadays Art Nouveau is viewed as a forerunner of the most innovative cultural movements of the 20th century like expressionism, cubism, surrealism, and Art Deco.

Freedom (political)

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Freedom is the right, or the capacity, of self-determination, as an expression of the individual will.

Traditionally philosophers have distinguished two senses of the word "freedom". The most common use is "negative" and is defined as the absence of constraint. Thus for Hobbes, one is free when the law is silent on a subject. But "freedom" is also used in another "positive" sense, where freedom is defined as the ability to transcend the social and cultural restraints which limit the potential of the individual for self-actualization. This latter sense is common to the romantic and individualistic philosophy of 19th century Germany.

Another common distinction made between kinds of freedom is the difference between "freedom from" social and political ills (which is really more accurately described as safety or security), and "freedom to" do what one wants (for which the term "liberty" is more precise).

Political freedom is usually connected to thoughts of human rights and is often defined in terms of a lack of excessive government interference in peoples' day-to-day lives.

In most democratic societies, key freedoms legally established by the government include:

Many nations have specific chapters of their constitutions which codify these freedoms in a bill of rights.

The concept of what constitutes true "freedom" is often disputed by different groups on the political spectrum. For example, while capitalist societies would place a high value on freedom from government interference in the economy, Marxists, would criticize this kind of thought as placing too much influence on the needs of the idividual, while ignoring the goal of complete social equalitiy.

Enivornmentalists such as the Greens often argue that political freedoms should include some social constraint on use of ecosystems. There is no such thing, for instance, as "freedom to pollute" or "freedom to deforest" given the downstream consequences. The popularity of SUVs, golf and urban sprawl show that ideals of freedom and ecological conservation can clash.

This leads at times to serious confrontations, e.g. the Earth Liberation Front's arson of homes enroaching on the desert, and clashes of values reflected in advertising campaigns, e.g. that of PETA regarding fur.

In jurisprudence, freedom is the right of autonomously determining one's own actions; generally it is granted in those fields in which the subject has no obligations to fulfil or laws to obey, according to the interpretation that the hypothetical natural unlimited freedom is limited by the law for some matters.
